After the Breakup, He Pursued Her Relentlessly

After the fire broke out in our apartment building, my boyfriend’s first reaction was to rush out of our apartment and save his childhood friend and neighbor, Isabella Harris.

Trying to ease my frustration, his friend explained, “Lucas only saved Isabella first because he felt responsible for her. They've known each other for over a decade. If there was something between them, it would have happened already.”

I remained calm. “I don’t get it, but I respect it. I hope they’re happy together. Keep your justifications to yourself."
