The Fake Girlfriend's Rulebook
I stayed there for a moment, not bothering to take a step forward.
I inhaled. Exhaled. Inhaled again.
Then I checked my reflection, using my phone screen for the fifth time , no smudged mascara, no leftover tears. Just me. Zoey Blake. Ex-girlfriend of Orion Gritton. I hated that title more than anything. But today, I had no choice but to face it and the people who had watched my humiliation head-on.
I finally took a step forward, my white sneakers squeaking on the pavement. My oversized Riverview hoodie almost swallowed me whole. At least it made me feel like I could hide.
