"I have a girlfriend," Kaiser rubs the back of his hand, almost nervous. You knew that the two of you weren't actually going out. But why did it hurt so much hearing those words spill from his lips?
It all meant nothing to Kaiser, he just toyed with you to pass some time. You knew that, of course, but why does this lingering feeling of hurt sit stubbornly inside your heart?
'It was nothing serious between us,' he said, as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
You couldn't be upset, could you? After all, he never said you two were exclusive or anything. You never had that conversation where you defined what you were to each other.
