I want to get to know you.
Jack.
''You know he was acting weird all through the dinner.''
I look up from the game and he shrugs. I don't know what he wants me to say. He is not getting the truth from me.
''I don't know. He said he had a work thing… maybe work stress.''
He shakes his head and drops the gamepad on the table. ''Patrick seemed to want to leave. Can you just tell me what you said to him? help me understand why he seems more hurt than usual.''
Why does he care so much?
He just met this guy and now he is acting like they have been best friends all their lives. So what if he is hurt. How is that any concern of his?
''Why are you so bothered by him. you need to give him some space. It doesn't look good when you are all worried about somebody that is not your boyfriend.''
He frowns ''What are you saying?''
