he laughed “well, i’m gay, kim,” he said. “i have a boyfriend so, if you think that i was trying to turn you down or friendzone you, that wasn’t the case,” he said taking his own and biting it. why couldn’t he have a best friend? why did that have to come into play. he thought she knew he was gay and now she was trying to make him feel bad which wasn’t cool.
he nodded ‘yeah, i’m usually on my feet all day too, back home always lots to do,” he said. he felt like the mood had changed a bit. did she like him? he never thought anything of it until now. he loved jay, he just wanted a friend.
“Are you mad at me now for telling you?” That was for sure not what Kim had wanted. But then, maybe Herc only understood her words wrong here? Because she was not up to flirt with him anymore now. Or to steal him away from Jay, or whatever. “okay, you know, just to get things right here - the moment I have been thinking about flirting with you was when we’d first met in the coffee shop. Because you are a cute guy. And I didn't know you were gay until you told me about Jay, either. Like.... usually do not judge guys like this because the like to go shopping, or whatever.”
She sighed and shook her head. “I meant it when saying we two make good best friends. I just wanted to be honest with you here. So there won’t be any ambivalent comments, or accidentally touching, or whatever else. I am not like this, and not only because of Jay. There had been this one moment during our first meeting, and nothing more.” Though, maybe next time, Kim should still keep such things for herself, anyway.
