Sliding Doors - 2 (English Version)

Chapter 45

Hero

Anna contacted me this morning to be able to see each other online this afternoon.
She has to say something important to Jo and me and I can't imagine what that could be.

Yes, I'll see her again too.

After last night, after the live Instagram where she and the cast of Moxie were celebrating Sydney's birthday...
I will see her again after I have seen her repeatedly kissing with another guy for work, but most of all I will see her again after this guy has clearly kissed her in the disco too.

In the video I saw you can see her next to Patrick and him pouncing on her...
It's only a few seconds but she stays there to kiss him.

I had to watch the video at least 10 times before realizing that this was really Josephine.
My Jo.
I don't know how it's possible but every time I think about it, my blood boils in my veins.
I feel hot everywhere and I get nervous.

How is it possible that she kissed him?

Plus, as if that weren't enough, he won that stupid bet...
Yes, because when they asked:
Do you like the kiss between Jo and Patrick?, they all said yes ...
Or at least the majority said yes!

He won with 51% of the vote! Fuck!

I didn't think it would bother me that much honestly.
I know that I have nothing to do with this challenge, but from how it was presented at the beginning it really seemed that the confrontation was between me and him.
There was no "Do you like kissing?"

Despite this, I feel drawn into and gnawing at my guts that that mannequin has won!

Now he has won the bet and obviously who has he invited out for dinner?
I'm not even saying ...

I don't even know how this dating thing came about, I don't want to know.
Or maybe yes, I would like to know but I would risk hurting myself even more.

I would like to avoid all of this but I can't.
It is karma.
I made her suffer, even without realizing it and now it's obviously my turn.
I have to get over her.

If she no longer wants to have anything to do with me or worse, if she has really forgotten me and is trying to move on, I can do nothing ...
In fact, I should be happy for her!

I sigh looking at the time on my mobile for the umpteenth time.
There is an hour left before the meeting with Anna.
I'm flustered, like I haven't seen Jo so many times before.
This time it's different.
I don't know what's going on in her life and I don't even know if she would tell me.
Who am I to be a part of her life after I hurt her with my behavior?
Nobody.

So FT, demeanor and move on.
Now the idea of ​​being together for months, knowing that we no longer have any relationship, is not so tempting ...

What if she doesn't want to see me anymore?
I don't know how I would do it ...

I take a quick shower to chase away the confused thoughts that are going through my head and I change.
I feel like I have to go on a date instead of being in my hotel room in slippers, on the bed, waiting for Anna and Jo to connect.
At the idea that Jo is on the line or that she is getting ready as I am, my heart does a somersault.

I prepare the computer and place it on the bed while the TV shows yet another rerun of Friends.
I absentmindedly watch the episode to make time pass faster and somehow it works.
I look at my watch and turn on the computer.
I connect to Skype and wait for Anna and Jo to join me.
The first to connect is her.

"Jo ..." I sigh

I don't know how to behave at this point.
I should be indifferent ...
She doesn't need to know I saw her kissing another guy.
We're not together anymore, I couldn't tell her anything anyway ...
