" Wow, that's super cool." I say, looking at his new device." I know, Todd's really good."
" He seems to be." I say. Todd's a nice guy, I rarely talk to him though.
" Guys, I'm getting lonely!" Larry yells.
" Well come on, let's go show Larry your Gear Boy." I say. We both climb back up into the treehouse, and see Larry staring at something. Sal grabs his attention but I look over at what he was focused on. A picture of his dad. Poor Larry. We leave him alone for 5 minutes and he found himself sad again.
" Holy shit bro, that's cool." Larry says, a smile on his face as he looks at the Gear Boy.
" The Gear Boy itsef has trouble working but yeah, still pretty cool."
" I'm sure we can fix it." Larry says.
" Yeah, Todd probably just wasn't focused on making it playable."
" I met this girl when I went up there. Ashley." Sal says
" I love Ash! She's cool, isnt she?" I say
" You know her?"
" Yeah, she's one of my closest friends."
" Right, me and her are pretty close too." Larry says
" Thats cool.. Ash seems great. She's like, really pretty." Sal says.
" Someone has a crush on Ashley?" Larry teases Sal. Sal awkwardly laughs and nervously scratches at his neck.
" Someone's not denying it." Larry continues to tease. I, for some reason, feel a lump in my throat.
" Well I'm going to head back to my apartment. Sal, give me updates on how the Gear Boy is coming along." I tell them.
" Alright, I will." Sal says. I smile at him before climbing down and making my way to my apartment. Why the hell did I feel like that? So upset? So.. jealous?
