She sits back with the phone and her 'best friend' on the line.
Her friend's voice drones about her adventures with her small social group and how she put someone to shame on the topic of her well curled hair.
She half listens half thinks about what was she going to say to her friend, how was she to explain to her that she couldn't be her friend any more.
This happened everytime. And everytime she used to chicken out thinking about her friend's feelings, feeling guilty about not trying to mend their friendship.
Everytime her friend used to sadly inform her that she was not on friendly terms with another person, she kept silent on her account as she didn't want to trouble her friend with problems she didn't require.
She was very quiet and through out the small talks, she just laughed and put in a few wise comments. Rest of the time she was stuck listening to her friend talking about people whom she had never heard nor met. What good did it do to her was nothing other than distract her from her purpose.
She was going to do it today...she had had enough.
She was interrupted for the third time in a 10 minute conversation for her friend to talk about another boy she was going around with.
"Elizabeth, I can't do this anymore. I'm sorry but I can't be your friend any longer. I just can't take this anymore. I believe that a friendship goes two way and I don't feel that you need a friend. You just need someone to listen to you talk about your 'adventures'.
I am done and I hope you find someone who suits your purpose and I do mine. " she said and she walked away from her table leaving a stunned person sitting in a cubical alone too shocked to respond and think about what just transpired.
She was relieved that she finally went through with it. But her thoughts kept going back to her ex friend's expressions and wondering what she might have been thinking.
But ultimately she let all of that go... and found herself some people who would like to be listened to as well as listen to her talk. Gave their asked opinions and supported her through thick and thin.
