"Blunt much?" I asked when I recovered, frowning to let her know how annoying I thought she was.

"It's a family trait."

"Hmm." I wasn't interested in hearing about Kelvin's younger days.

"He dated half the girls in my secondary school. I thought you were his side-piece, you know what I mean?"

"I'm not," I replied, hotly. She was getting on my last nerves.
