"What do you think you should do?"

"I don't know, on one hand. I want to go just to see what he wants, but I know he's gonna try to convince me to get back with maya *sigh*. What would you do?" I turned to her as she nibbled on a noodle before placing the Chinese takeout container down in her lap.

"In all honesty I would say fuck him and just block his ass" she replied nonchalantly

"Then that's what I'm doing" I nodded quickly fishing In my pockets for my phone but was stopped by a hand being placed on top of mine making me turn to patience.

"I'm not finished. That's something I would do but I can tell you want to go logan. Believe it or not your not gonna heal if you don't go, you need that comfort or it's gonna keep you guessing the rest of your life. This is your chance to either end it once and for all or probably save your relationship it's up to you. " At her words I sighed aloud and laid my head back against the head rest knowing she was right. The thought of wanting to know would've killed me if I didn't attempt to find out why.

A warmth enveloped my hand making me snap my head down at a hand covering my own before my eyes looked to patience's direction where she held my gaze "If you need somebody to talk to afterwards I'm right here to listen" She replied her voice held no emotion but somehow I felt a sense of comfort from her words.

So I took heid to what patience said and texted back chase agreeing to meet up but I didn't want to go alone. I didn't want to ask patience to get involved since she was already helping enough by taking me in so I texted the only person I knew I could rely on.

"How you feeling, man?"

"I think I'm good just nervous as hell"

"Don't be brother I'm right here. Remeber were just here to hear them out then we're gone for good"

"Thanks man don't think I could've faced this without you" Aaron gave me a light pat and squeeze on the shoulder for comfort. I took a deep breath and exhaled before stepping out of the car and both of us headed towards the restaurant both of us sporting a poker face.

I had finally come clean about the whole situation except the parts with me sleeping with our boss and currently living with her, but everything else I made sure to explain to him.

We were to meet him at a restaurant called Mcbyrons. A known eating spot that I spent my childhood coming to and some of my most precious moments with friends and family. The sound of the bell on the door echoed as soon as we entered, and the familiar sweet smell of pancakes and coffee brisked through the air. Making us both inhale the good smelling air before exhaling in relief.

I quickly spotted chase with his wild autumn locks sitting on the far side of the Cafe with lein and two more of my friends from high school that normally tagged along with us when we went out. Upon noticing our arrival Lenin quickly jolted out of his seat to greet us. "Hey Logan, aaron, glad both of you came ." Aaron replied with a dry wassup as I just replied with a simple hello around the tables to everyone except Chase, who looked up at me for a moment and acknowledged me with a simple head nod. We all took our seats and began to flip through our menus pretending to look for whatever we wanted when the truth was we knew everything on the menus from the front and the back. it was simply a way to avoid the awkward aura that settled between us after the greeting.

My anxiety was raging as I bounced my leg under the table wanting so desperately to get to the point and I could tell Aaron felt the same as he repeatedly tapped his nails against the table and sat man spread. I looked around the place I had come to love for years and still do. The place hadn't changed at all and was surprisingly still doing good after all these years even when the town had changed and was now surrounded by big food corporations.
