Sandy's POV
I can't go through my tagged photos on Instagram anymore. Every photo is of Joe and Mona and it reminds me of what happened during the premiere. Everything recently has been about them and I can't find social media enjoyable anymore. I can't even turn on the tv without seeing some celebrity news channels cover their relationship. I can't even go outside! Goody and I tried to go watch a movie and of course we had to see them together.
I've lied to Goody and told him that I'll get over Joe soon but I can see that he knows better than to listen to my lies. He's been trying to take my mind off of him by distracting me, but it's just not working. And going home and seeing Mona not there reminds me even more that at the end of the day: she's with him and I'm not.
"Do you want to talk?" Goody says sitting down on the couch next to me.
"About what? I literally don't know what to think, let alone what to say," I take a second to collect some thoughts before speaking again, "Do you really think they're dating?"
"Well, they seem to be-" Goody starts to say but I cut him off.
"I mean, do you think they actually like each other?"
"Looking at how happy they are when they're out together, makes me believe that they are."
I look down not knowing what to say next.
Goody realizes that I've run out of things to say and decides to speak up, "I think the sooner you really get over him, the sooner you'll be able to be yourself again. You need to stop pitying yourself and move on."
Normally I would've taken offense to what he just said but for once thinking logically, I agree with him.
"You're right."
