My best friend's girlfriend

7

Autumn was in full swing, and so was my love for Bora. I thought that a couple of months of unrequited feelings would cool my adolescent ardor, but that was not the case. Now I found pleasure in all the moments when we were around. In her light kisses on my cheek, friendly hugs, pats on the shoulder when she or I joked. No, I did not cross boundaries, I continued to keep this secret inside myself, carrying my pain, mixed with pleasure, with some kind of masochistic pleasure. I have already come to terms with the fact that my love will continue to poison me from the inside, that I will be left alone with her, killing myself, as I began to notice that Bora is becoming more ... detached, or something. When we got together, three of us or a larger company, I often noticed that the girl was more and more silent, as if she was thinking about something important. And sometimes I did catch her pensive glances at myself. She, of course, immediately turned away, as if she was scared every time she was caught. And it made me a little ... nervous? I was afraid that she would guess. Because, damn it, no matter how hard I tried, I could not hide a moronic smile that appeared on my face every time I saw Bora.

- Siyeon, tomorrow is Friday, do you remember that last week you promised Bora to nail this painting? I got tired of stumbling about her, - Minji grumbled on the phone during lunchtime.

- You need to look under your feet because, - I answered with the same grumbling. I was in no mood in the morning, because the autumn depression, it seems, got me too.

- Well, you know, when there is a naked woman nearby, I somehow do not care what is under my feet, - Minji giggled, which caused my next wave of indignation.

- Is it necessary to tell me all the details of your adventures? - and so the day is crappy, she's still here with reminders of naked Bora. Just great.

- Why so ? - Minji frowned. - It didn't bother you before.

- Minji, what did you want? Remind me of the painting? I already remember. I have a lot of work, I have no time to help your girlfriend - I was losing patience, rushing to my friend, and I myself understood this perfectly.

- You got bitten by some rabid lesbian? - Minji's voice also changed, and I knew that if we both did not stop, we would certainly have a fight. Minji and I swore very rarely, but aptly. We could not speak for a week at all.

- No," I sighed and, closing my eyes, rubbed the bridge of my nose. - Nobody bit me. I'm just tired. I have a lot of work. I'm sorry.

- It seems to me, just someone has not had sex for a long time. I read that it affects the emotional background. Here I am always cheerful. And why? Because I regularly ...

- Yes, yes, I understand," I interrupted her. - Do not continue. Listen, come tomorrow night, I'll stop by Bora, and you leave me alone with questions about when I will start having sex? - I gave up. Minji has been hinting and openly trolling me for months that I don't sleep with anyone.

- I'll think ... Listen, let's go to the water park on Sunday? Minji suggested unexpectedly.

- What?

- Aquapark. A place where water ... and a park. Well, the slides and ...

- Minji," I interrupted her again, "I know what a water park is. I ask why do we need to go there?

- Well, out of the kindness of his heart, the client gave me four tickets. I want to go with Bora and you. And the fourth ticket is for some lovely madam, whom I will also call, and who, perhaps, will make you a more adequate person. Maybe you will stop screaming for no reason at all, "Minji finished her monologue.
