As I walk the couple of blocks back to my apartment, I think about blocking him again, but I know that this is just my emotions getting the best of me.
I decide to pick up some ice cream on the way home. When I get inside my apartment, I put on some comfortable clothes and watch my favorite rom com.
In the movies, even though they are full of drama, love triangles always seem so easy to navigate, and the right decision always seems like an obvious choice. Being in one, or a square rather, is in reality, incredibly complicated.
As I eat my ice cream and watch my movie, I hear my phone ping, but I ignore it. If it's Matt, I will get back to him. I feel guilty for what just conspired and don't want to face him, or at least not his message. And if it's him, I don't want to see what he's saying. It's all too complicated right now.
I finish the entire pint that I have bought, and my belly feels full and bloated, but my mind isn't reeling any more and I finally feel like I can fall asleep.
I wrap myself up in my blanket and close my eyes. With all the drama bouncing around in my head and in my life, I drift off easily.
