Best friends pretty much always have your best interests at heart, even if it doesn’t always feel like it.
—Lana Parker, “What Do I Do When My BFF Hates My Partner?”
May examines the lined piece of paper with a smirk on her face.
“You know how much I hate that face.” I rub both of my temples, resting my elbows on the wooden table at one of our favorite bar/cafés, Bon Vivant, where I’ve gathered my entire support system to help me make sense of my life.
“Look, I know Seth and I haven’t met, but after reading this list, I like him already.” She slides the paper back to me and takes a sip of her white wine.
“According to the best-friend code, you’re obligated to hate him.” I scan the list again even though I already have it memorized. “Although truth be told, he could’ve done me dirtier.”
“I’m sure he’s done you plenty dirty before.” Corey’s eyebrows dance up and down.
