After Gilbert left there was an awkward silence. "Sooooooooo" Amanda said trying to start up a conversation.

"Sooooooooo" Jeff replied.

"What do you want to do now?"

Jeff sighed "I don't know."

"Can I ask you a question?"

"You just did" he laughed.

"Okay can I ask you two questions."

"Shoot."

"Why did you break up with Trish?"

Jeff sighed and then turned to face Amanda. "Everyone was telling me how I didn't love her. They said she was just a rebound because I lost you. Jeff paused to see Amanda's reaction. Amanda just looked at her feet.

"Jeff I'm sorry."

"What are you saying sorry for?"

"Because I'm the reason you and Trish aren't together anymore."

"It's not your fault. I'm thankful that everyone was telling me those things."

"Why are you thankful."

"Because all of it is true. Trish was a rebound and I didn't love her" he stated as a matter of factly.

"Oh" Amanda said with no emotion.

"Amanda I need to tell you something."

"Okay what?"

Jeff thought about it for a moment. Should he tell her? He deiced to tell her how he felt. Maybe she felt the same. "I lo…….." just then Michael started crying.
