My Ex Is My Bestfriend
Chapter 16 - CHAPTER 16
The days passed by. During the days, I'm with Ash and the kids. Teaching them, playing with them and all sorts to make them happy and learn a lot. With Ash, I think we're flirting. No, I didn't know how or when it started but he just blurted it out to me one day.
"Cassidy, if you continue doing that, I might fall in love with you."
"Haven't you fallen in love with me yet?"
"You... You stop that right now!"
I laughed. But then turned serious, "That was a joke right? You falling in love with me?"
"Oh I don't know Cassidy. If you keep on flirting I might."
"I'm flirting to you?"
"Of course. With all that laughing at all my silly jokes, smiling brightly like the sun when you see me and showing off your curves with all the fancy dresses you wear. Yes you are!"
I didn't know these are flirting to him. "That's flirting to you? My god, that's just the normal me."
"No, I don't feel it so. You are definitely flirting." I rolled my eyes. Whatever!
And then my nights were spent to talking with Ethan. He's basically telling me he's events for the day. From the people he rides on the bus everyday, to the things he doesn't like with his workmates. Sometimes, we talk of the anime we watch or the movies we both like. And then on other nights, he tells me of how they're doing with Cara. When he tells me things about her, I sometimes feel pain. I don't know why but I just let it be. Maybe it's from the bitterness that he found someone, while I'm still finding myself. And then there's the dirty talking, which he often does every night we talk.
"Cass please just one shot. Just one."
"No. You ask Cara. I'm not your girl anymore. Not doing the ex with benefits."
"No no no. Cass, I don't know but your guy here only salutes at you."
"My guy? That's not my guy anymore."
"Clearly, he still likes you. I've tried it but it never does respond even if I'm facing hotter girls."
I shut at that. "You've tried with someone?"
"Yes but it doesn't stand. My ego's dying. I'm not a man anymore."
"Maybe you're gay."
"Cass, remember we had s.e.x a couple of weeks back? It had no qualms of standing with you. But with others, no such luck."
"Is that even possible?"
"Maybe. I don't know."
"Maybe you should try with someone you love? Try it with Cara?" Why am I encouraging him with this. Am I still an innocent girl? No clearly not.
"Eehhh...."
"You don't like doing it with Cara?"
"She doesn't appeal to me. Really."
And the topic went on. I don't know why but I look forward every night of our talks. It's comforting me that someone wants to listen to me and I could help him with his problems. It's somehow of mutual benefits.
As I was walking down the road, thinking of the things I would like to tell him, I caught sight of a familiar-looking bag. "Hmmm isn't that Ethan's?"
I squinted hard, and what I saw was yeah him. And Cara. Walking down the street, talking and smiling. They look so happy. I watch them ride together a bus. I stood there immobile, oblivious to the confused stares of passersby. I saw them happy together and it pains me. Why does it have to be painful? Why Ethan? I don't know what to think anymore. I didn't realize that my tears are beginning to fall.
