After you comforted me that afternoon, I felt better. Not by much, but at least I knew you hadn't completely forgotten me. But besides that, you had already went and made a date with whatever her name was to meet up, all three of us.  I felt sick and nervous when the time came, I was close to cancelling on multiple occasions within the ten hours before we said we would meet. The time soon came, my nerves were shot as I stood at the coffee shop waiting for you. I was lost deep in thought, trying to calm myself down when you jumped at me from behind, scaring me. I yelped and turned my head to the side to see you behind me, laughing. I laughed nervously as you pulled me into a hug from behind.

I felt slightly less nervous for a brief second, until I saw her arrive and I was reminded of everything. She stared at you and I hugging for a moment before she smiled. I reluctantly moved away from you, letting you greet her. Except she kissed you on the lips in front of me. It was only the second time I'd seen you both kiss and it still killed a piece of me. I stared at the ground instead, playing with the sleeves of my jumper.

A minute later we went inside and sat down at one of the tables. You said you would order, except you asked her what she wanted, not me. Except a moment later you arrived, you had ordered an Americano for me. You still remembered one of my favourites and not hers. It made me feel warm inside, but I knew it wouldn't last long. Soon you'd know everything about her.

I tentatively sipped the drink as you tried to make us talk and find something common. Unfortunately it didn't work. The morning dragged on, with very little from me. Maybe she did try to be friendly with me, but I couldn't like her. I wanted to, I tried to, but I couldn't.

As promised, we all three had met up. But unfortunately I couldn't hold my end of it, of trying to be friends with her.
