Out Of Jacket

My heart wasn't in it, and she knew it.


After a long moment, she picked up her jacket and slipped it back on.


"So I take it this wasn't as good as you hoped?"


I shook my head.


"No, no, trust me, please, this isn't about you."


She narrowed her eyes.


"I didn't say it was about me, I said it was about the surprise you with just a jacket thing. So why did you immediately go to defending me?"


I sighed, and pulled the letter out of my jacket, showing her the rejection I'd just gotten.


She understood, sorta.
