little progresses, and gain faith in myself again. I cut him short: “No, it better not be. I'm just gonna go now, and pretend this never happened. Thanks for your hospitality, David.” He grabbed my arm before I could get up. “Will you please just hear me out. Just let me talk, and when I'm done you can go if you like, okay? 'Cause if you're going now, I'll just lock myself up in my little misery, write a few songs about my broken heart, get stupid rich with them, and ask you again to hear me out, which you won't be able to decline since cash makes even me sexy as hell,” he said. I rolled my eyes, and shook my head, but giggled, “You're impossible. Alright then. Let's get this shit over with.” He took another deep breath, before starting over: “Okay, um, how shall I put this? Have you ever wondered, er, why there is no, um, Mrs Jordan, or anyone like that?” I had to contain myself from just standing up, and leaving. The more he spoke, the more I felt my fear of having to deal with just another of these lechers confirmed.

And on top of that you're really nice, cute, smart, and I can see that beneath that insecure surface of yours there's someone joyous, and full of life, willing to burst out, and see the world. Fuck, that's the side of you I fell in love with. Yes, now you know it: I love you, Betha...” A heavy slap from my hand right on his cheek interrupted his confession, and left a suggestive red mark all over his face. “Will you please shut up already?” I sobbed, tears forming in the corners of my eyes, “Who do you think you are? Fuck! Fuck! We had something special! And now you just go, and destroy it! Why, David?! The only thing that's gonna burst right now is me into tears, you fucking moron! You idiot!
