"No need, we're barely more than strangers. Anything to discuss can be handled over the phone," I said, showing no interest in seeing Nick.
Yet, Nick was persistent. "Let's meet up. We may not be close, but we're friends. I was planning to visit my ex, Nicole's hometown, but your actions have caused me to stay and deal with the fallout here."
I wasn't particularly surprised by his words until he mentioned visiting Nicole. My emotions were stirred, "Why are you visiting her when you've broken up? Haven't you hurt Nicole enough, Nick?"
I didn't particularly like Nicole. I was just commenting on Nick's past actions which were, frankly, appalling.
To my surprise, Nick just chuckled, revealing no remorse. "I had no choice. I wanted to break up but she kept clinging on. You must've figured it out by now, the one I truly fancied was Ariel."
Now that Damon was out of the picture, Nick was showing his true colors, unabashedly.
