*LANCE P.O.V.*

Why is that women always want to know every detail and EVERYTHING?
Dale will kill me later. ಠ_ಠ
I ordered one iced caramel and one hot coffee for Christine and for me. I can see her over here inside the cafe shop, she's sitting at the table outside and if I wanted to escape right now well I can really do that but today I pity her.
I know she cannot even think right even the incident was like weeks ago from now.
"Here.."
"Start."
"Can I sit first, ma'am?" she just glared at me.
"What? Of course I need to sit before I start to talk, right?"
I sip a little bit of my coffee and I can see in her eyes that she's still mad.
"Ahem.. I just know that they are already married.-"
.
"Liar.."
.
Well I can't just tell the whole thing!
"Christine you should talk to Dale-"
"I did that already but he didn't tell me everything.."
Of course he won't. That's his privacy. I met Dale in college and yes, I am his bestfriend, and I know everything.
I didn't got surprised when they even got married cause I know all the plans of Dale.
"If Dale told you everything you wanted to know then that's it. What you already know is only I know too."
"So do you know Yanna too all along?"

Dammit.

"Yes.."
"How long.."
...
..
.
"After they got married."
.
"Liar."
.
"C'mon Tin, if you can't believe it, it's your call.."
Why is that all women have that feeling that we always hide something?
"Fine. I'm gonna tell you something too.."
"What?"
That she also married to a student?
"I like Dale."
So I almost have a sip of my coffee again and thank God I didn't do it cause I might just throw it up somewhere.
WHAT THE HELL IS SHE TALKING ABOUT!??
"I love him, Lance.."
"W-well he's already married, Tin.."
Is she tricking me to tell everything!?
"But I think I still have a chance.."
She haven't drink a beer yet just an iced caramel..
Well I didn't know! I swear to God I didn't know that she really like Dale! I mean I thought that she's just being flirty cause Dale really have the looks but..
"Tin..."
Dammit what should I say!?
"There... Are more guys out there so.."
"So I don't have a slightest chance? That's what are you saying.."
..yes..
"You know, if Dale decided on something, it's final he wouldn't change it at all even you ask him to."
except if it is Yanna..
"....."
If you're gonna ask me, Christine is really beautiful. She has all the things that a guy wants. I guess she's just so unlucky that she fell from Dale.
"You need to move on, Tin.."
"How? If I always see him everyday.. How?"
again, here is another problem in women.. They can't move on easily..
"Well.. You could try me?"
"It's not funny.."
Yeah.. I shouldn't do jokes right now..
"Well I guess you should try moving on atleast from now on.."
I'm not good at advising people.. I just hope Christine knows how to let go.
That night, we just finish our drinks without talking anymore. I drive her home without saying any words too.
.
The next day..
.
"Come here man!"
I shout at Dale in a low voice..
"What's wrong?"
When he's about to enter my office I grab his arm..
"What are you doing?"
"Dale! Christine likes you!"
"Yes, I know.."
....
..
.
"F*ck you, man.."
"Lance she told me months ago.."
So I was the only one who didn't know it yet.. Now I know the feeling that it really hurts when you're the only one left who didn't know everything..
"Anyway, how did you know?"
"We talked yesterday.."
I still pity her..
"And??"
"She can't-"
No. I can't tell him that she can't still move on..
"She can't what?"
"She cannot still believe that you married a student.."
..sigh..
"I can't do anything about that either.."
"Yeah.."
Somehow, the marriage of my bestfriend and his one and only love doesn't make any good to others.. For now I guess..
