章 987: Substitute Teacher

"Keep going," was her last order before disappearing into a clutter of branches and bushes. "Maybe you may be able to take that jealousy of yours and use it to push yourself past the line. Worth a try, don't you think? Go." 

Jealous? Me? 

Okay, maybe. 

I know I'm the last person possible to be having gripes about my girlfriend being left alone with other dudes… especially when I don't actually have any solid foundation for those aforementioned gripes. 

It's not as if I've jumped all the way into the deep end and believe that every guy who's even batted an eye in her general direction was an abhorrent act of deep betrayal on her part.

But I'd be lying if I said that the attention she does garner doesn't bother me at all even in the slightest. The same goes for everyone else too… which I'm aware was all kinds of hypocritical, considering that's exactly what I was doing to them with each other.
