42 - He called me dirty

Jenna never liked Armando from the onset. However, knowing that he was engaged to Amber, all she felt was pity for her former schoolmate. From the way Armando pestered her, she could tell that he wasn’t a one-woman man. Such a man would only give more pain than pleasure in the future.

“No. I just saw him on his way to my boss’s office,” Jenna broke the awkwardness with her few words before checking a few more price tags, making her increasingly irritated. Why should these be so expensive?

“Oh,” Amber was relieved. She thought something serious must have happened between them but she seemed to just be overthinking it.

Armando knew his chances were ruined, now that Jenna knew he had a fiancé. He had to admit that he lost to Casper but he still wanted something with her. Anything. Even if it’s just friendship. “It’s nice to see you again, Jenna. That is your name right?” Armando stretched out his hand.

Jenna didn’t accept his handshake and she hated the dirty look Amber kept giving her.
