Broken Plans

Unrequited
“I feel as if I just drank a bottle of bamboozled.” “What do you mean?” “All this time I thought she loved me but it was all a terrible lie.” “Are you talking about Inga?” He nodded. “I tried to warn you about her.” “Yes, you did.” “But, as usual, you wouldn’t listen. I don’t …
