He Loved Her, Not Our Baby

After her breakup, my best friend fell into a deep depression.

She decided every man was worthless, and every single day she pushed me to leave my boyfriend.

Jim Butler, at a loss, kept finding ways to win her over.

Treating her to meals. Sending her gifts and flowers.

The way he fussed over her, eager to please, looked like more effort than he ever put into me.

I assumed he did it for the sake of our future.

I never thought twice about it.

Not until that camping trip in the countryside, when Jim suddenly shoved me into the water.
