But no one wants to say goodbye
Friendship might have been safe, but it also felt like a disappointment. Koa might not want to admit it - or explore it too closely - but there had always been more between them than that. Was it lust? Was that all that it was? Or was there more, just waiting right within reach, ripe, now, for the taking?
"'Too bad,' huh?" Soh asked, lifting her brows as she took a sip of her now-cool tea. And what, exactly, did that mean? 'Too bad' as in 'oh, that's too bad, so sad for you'? Or 'oh, no, what a shame, how disappointing'? Soh sat back in her chair, her cup still held in her hands. "I suppose you could say that."
A blush mantled Koa's cheeks, and Soh blinked with surprise as he openly shared his experience with Flora. She knew about it, of course, considering that Flora was her best friend (and, therefore, one more reason not to get involved with Koa), but hearing it from Koa's perspective was somehow harder. She bit her tongue against the words that threatened, but they slipped out anyway. "Maybe she made a mistake," Soh said softly. "Maybe she'll realize one day that it should've been you, and she'll regret it." Not that Soh knew from experience or anything.
Now she really wished that she'd opted for a stronger drink. They were on dangerous ground, and Soh wasn't sure she could survive if she stepped into a hidden sinkhole to plunge into the abyss.
