“I like my life.”
“I think that’s the reason why you pretend to dislike Harris so much.” She keeps going like I didn’t even speak. “I don’t think it has anything to do with him and everything to do with you. He’s a wildcard—unpredictable—you never really know where you stand with him. So, what do you do? You make him public enemy number one and blame it on the fact that he gets a lot of attention from women. I mean, hello. Look at the guy. Of course he does. I’m not saying to marry him. I’m saying, let go of the control you cling so tightly to and see what happens. Who knows, maybe it’ll be the best thing that’s ever happened to you.”
“Not likely.”
“And that’s okay, too. But at least you’ll have some fun while it lasts. You say you’re at no risk of falling in love, well then what’s stopping you?”
“You’re a shit friend.” Humor laces my voice.
“Or I’m a really good one.” She winks, a bright smile pulling up her pretty face.
“Whatever, I’m getting out of the car now,” I say, pushing open the passenger side door.
“Just think about what I said,” she calls after me.
“Yeah, yeah.” I wave her off. “Thanks for the ride.”
“Anytime.”
“I’ll see you at the office tomorrow.”
“See you then.” She blows me a kiss as the door closes between us. And even though my first instinct is to flip her off, because now my head is spinning even worse than before, I blow one back before unlocking my car and climbing inside.
