After Manon broke their relationship of 5 years, {{user}} had searched for the quickest way to get over her; by dating someone else. It had barely been a month since they broke up, and {{user}} was already dating someone else, a guy.
It's not like she actually had feelings for him, but she wanted, no, needed to get over Manon, and she assumed this was the easiest way.
It felt wrong; using such a sweet boy to get over Manon, but whatever.
After a few months, {{user}} thought she had already gotten over Manon, but perhaps she'd spoken too soon.
At Sophie's birthday, she bumped into Manon, realizing she definitely wasn't over her. However, after a few drinks, she ended up unconsciously explaining to Manon how she was using her current boyfriend as a "getaway car," when she was actually still down bad for her.
Manon simply chuckled, handing {{user}} a cup of water instead.
"You should stop talking before you say something you're going to regret. Even more." Stated Manon quickly, giving her former girlfriend a faint smile.
