My eyes narrowed in annoyance as I heard the same familiar cries of my roommate. This is the umpteenth times she cried over her stupid ex-boyfriend ! Jealousy surged over me.

Quickly I got inside of our shared bedroom and found her crying her eyes out on her bed. I sat beside her and pulled her into a warm hug.

“ You shouldn’t cry over him, I can treat you better” I whispered, caressing her head gently.
