He Regretted It After I Moved On

Synopsis

It was the first day of orientation. My childhood friend Ryan Brooks fell in love at first sight with my roommate. To avoid making their dates awkward, my roommate, blushing, introduced me to Alex Reed, a guy who had been pursuing her for a while. Ryan didn't stop it. Instead, he raised an eyebrow at me. He said, "Emily, give it a try. How do you know he isn't right for you?" But later, when a photo of Alex and me really appeared on my social media feed, Ryan regretted it. He rushed to my doorstep in the middle of the night, his eyes bloodshot. He asked, "Emily, are you serious?" As if I couldn't see his distress, I smiled and nodded. I said, "Yes, he really is a good fit for me. "A better fit than you."
