Freak

So a few years ago, I dated this girl a few times and never called her back. No big deal. Shit happens.

UNTIL about a month ago, when she moved into the apartment DIRECTLY beneath my current girlfriend's. And this isn't even a building, with like an elevator or anything -- it's a walk-up, so I walk past her three huge windows every time I go see my girlfriend.

And it gets tricker still -- as in, neither of them knows I know, and now they're getting to be FRIENDS. See, I first saw the "ex" through one of her three huge windows and thought, 'Wow that looks exactly like (ex's name)'. Then, my girlfriend began talking about her new friend downstairs, who indeed has the same name as the ex and goes to the same school, which all but confirms it. But I couldn't really say anything about it...

And THEN, last night, I'm in my girlfriend's apartment while she's down taking out the trash, and she comes back in and says, "(Ex's name) invited us down for fresh banana bread!" Now, anyone who knows me knows I love banana bread, so I'm struggling hard to come up with an excuse here, but finally my girlfriend leaves me alone and goes downstairs by herself. Of course, later, she comes back with a few slices for me, leftovers, which I can't turn down.

AND NOW I'M EATING THE GIRL'S FUCKING BANANA BREAD!
