I see the love in her eyes. When she thinks I’m not looking, she stares, and when we speak, she loses all her composure. She fumbles her words and tries to hide it, but I can feel her nervousness. The crazy part is that she is far prettier and cuter than my ex. I used to think I would never find anyone who could match my ex’s beauty, let alone surpass it. I had no idea that fate had hidden such a beautiful surprise for me in its folds.
But here is the reality: I am freezing her out completely. I show zero interest and act completely oblivious, so she has no idea that I notice her feelings. She will never know, and she will never get close to me. After burning in the hell of my last relationship, I will never let another person become my weakness again.
The only good thing about this is the distraction. This new girl is stunning. She gives me so much attention, and I am simply enjoying the feeling. I am using her focus on me as a tool to finally break the curse of my ex, with no intention of letting it go any further.
