Anya took a deep breath. Her hands trembled as she touched his chest, trying to ease the blow. "Zephyr asked me to be his girlfriend… and I said yes."
Kai swallowed hard, tjis information was hard to process. He stared at her, unable to speak.
"Kai?" Anya whispered, searching his face. "Say something. Please."
His voice was low, almost broken as he finally asked, "Why? Why did you say yes to him?"
Anya blinked, confused. "What do you mean, why?" she shot back. "Are you kidding me?"
Kai's stance was unmoving. "I'm deadass serious. Why?"
Her defenses shot up, and she crossed her arms, glaring at him. "Because, Kai, you've been the shittiest person to me since I got here! You've done nothing but treat me like garbage. You've been mean, condescending, and cruel. Even after we made out, you still acted like I was nothing. Like I didn't matter."
