"Tay." With hesitation, New finally broke the silence between them. They just spent a long day of working together. But more than being physically tired, they were both exhausted from the tension that was going on between them. But as professionals that they were, nobody else knew what was going on. Or so they thought.
They both sat tensed at opposite sides of Tay's couch after New drove Tay home - something they haven't done for a while now.
Tay's heartbeat grew stronger and louder without even knowing what New was about to say. But he was certain that for a few months now, there has always been an elephant in the room and New was finally trying to tackle it. His eyes started to well up no matter how hard he tried to stop them.
"Aren't you tired of still pretending to be my friend?"
Tay felt like a bucket of ice-cold water was dumped over him. Trembles started from his fingers until they reached his shoulders. And with that, the first drop of tear fell from his left eye.
