Pursuing my ex Wife

Mrs.Cupid

Audrey's pov

"Hmm, this is so good," Payal said, licking the sauce off her slender, milky fingers.

We ordered a brunch platter, which included a bunch of lunch and breakfast goodies.

Some cocktail pies, mini sausages, bacon, sandwiches, fries, fried chicken, and waffles. They gave us milk shots...yes, I exist, apparently. We took a shot of milk before we started digging in.

I ordered a mocktail because it was still too early to drink, and payal got a cocktail because she's a >I don't care< type of person, and she's actually quite chatty.

"I agree, miss." I moaned to the taste of fluffy waffles in my mouth.

"So, you got a special somebody in your life?" She asked, and I laughed out.

Awkwardly so.

"Uhm, well, no," I answered, and she corked her eyebrow at me as if to playfully read me.

"Ok ok fine, I have this hot new neighbor who just moved in, but I think he's a dad, and he is probably married," I said.

Yes, I might have developed a teensy weensy crush on Mr.hotstuff... I don't even know his name, and I'm so pathetic!

"Girll, get out! Is he hot?" She asked wuth a grin.

"Very. I have never seen such a gorgeous man before well, my ex husband is quite handsome as well but ofcourse I view both of them differently" I shrugged and I could notice a slight change in her mood but she still had on her grin.

"Well, what do you feel for your ex-husband?" she asked.

"I feel nothing. Everything I have ever felt for him left the day I divorced him. He's a bum, " I said, then took a large sip of my cocktail.

Why did I find it difficult to tell her that? I don't still like Andre, in fact I dislike him.

"Oh. That's too bad, Andre talks about you all the time, " she said, and I looked confused.

Wait....

That article I saw a while back. She's thee payal, the one rumored to be in a relationship with Andre .

"Wiat, are you...are you and Andre a couple?" I asked, and she burst out laughing like i just said the most hilarious joke.

"No, eww," she said, shaking her head.

"Well, do you like him?" I asked whilst I wiped my hands.

"I-" she paused looking lost for a moment before taking a deep breath and looking at me with pained eyes, " yes, I like him but I don't have strong feelings for him" she said.

"Well, why don't you tell him?" I asked, taking yet another sip of my cocktail.

"Hehe, nah, that man still talks a lot about you till this day. I think he realized after your divorce that he loves you, " she shrugged.

"No way, Andre was just infatuated by me and him talking about me alot is him trying to lessen his guilt for cheating on me and not trusting me" I said and she nodded as if she didn't believe what I was telling her.

"Well, either way. I could never tell him how I feel him. He would reject me. "

I understand who rejection could feel like, and I need to get Andre off my back. I think I have an idea.

"How about we make him realise his feelings for you?" I asked, and she laughed at me.

"Oh, come on! He definitely has feelings for you that he hasn't realized yet. You guys have been friends for two whole years. You've had his back, been his shoulder to cry on, and I bet you guys are like best friends now. There's no way on God's green earth that Andre hasn't fallen for you. He just hasn't thought about it yet, " I said.
