Chapter 38: Second Date
Rory
I was meeting up with Trevor again, a week after our first meetup at that restaurant which ended with me leaving on the guise of no longer being interested since he didn’t trust me.
At this point, I’ve managed to save up more money, I’ve been able to shop for myself a little. Which means tonight, I was more dolled up than I was a week ago.
Trevor instantly noticed and he showered me compliments as I expected.
I kept my phone in the same position as last time, knowing he wouldn’t dare touch it tonight. But little did he know that I was recording the entire conversation we’d be having today.
"So, is Ra–"
"You’re about to ask about my wife again? Can we not? I’m mainly here because I don’t want to think about her." He lamented and I leaned forward, making my expression appear concerned.
"Oh, my. Did something happen between you two?" I asked softly and he sighed before throwing his drink back.
"Not that. It’s just that... it’s tiring, you know? Being with someone you aren’t that attracted to." He admitted and internally, I began to curse him out.
"Why aren’t you attracted to her? Aren’t you in love with her?" I asked and he grimaced.
"That’s a strong word, but I love the family I have with her, our little Miranda."
