“Hang up now.” I tapped my hand on the table to get her attention, but she ignored me.

“No. I don’t want to hear it. I won’t be your California hookup. I’m over it, Henry. I’ve moved on.” A tear skittered down her cheek. “Enjoy Cairo. I’m sure you can find a gorgeous Egyptian to occupy your time. Goodbye, Henry.” She ended the call, staring into nothingness, and my heart broke.

“I’m sorry, honey.”

“No! Not another word about him. What about Viv? Should I call her?” And just like that, she’d rebounded.

“Yes, call her.”

Lily rose to her feet and paused. “Don’t worry about me, okay? I was a fool for thinking he felt the same way I felt about him. I was wrong, and I’ve learned. That’s the end of it.”

“Okay.” Of course, I didn’t believe a single word that left her lips. It wasn’t the “end of it.” Lily was a woman who would rather die than cry over a man.

It was why I was so sad for her. She’d only known Henry for a few days, and he’d managed to make my badass, made-of-stone best friend cry.

The sorry bastard had lost the most incredible woman in the universe.
