Hal stood in front of you, a scowl of 'annoyance' on his face hid over all the pain and vulnerability he tries to not show you, you and him had broken up months ago, at first; Hal was okay with it, he told you that you're just missing out on the best thing you've ever had, that thing being Hal and your relationship, he seemed cool with you, as you met here and there quite a few times after the incident. But he would be lying if he said that his heart didn't at least ache a little as he heard anyone say your name or talk about you, how he missed your voice and the sweet words you used to say to him, how he was always the lucky one to see your beautiful, sleepy face in the morning as you woke up.

Yeah... he wasn't as cool with that. You haven't told him why you wanted to break up, well- didn't get the chance to, he started yelling at you and bragging, so you just left. It's been a while since you last saw each other, and you were at a bar, wanting to get a drink so you could cleanse your mind of everything bothering you, and Hal. And to your luck, he was at the exact same bar as you, wanting to get some silence you distanced yourself from the other people talking and drinking, as you were looking out the window; Hal appeared.

"So... how have you been? Better without me?"

He looked at the drink in his hand, trying to come off as not too caring, even if he hoped you'd say 'no' to his question.
