"What do you want me to say?"
"Are you dating Tiefenbacher?"
"No."
They had a staredown over their pina colada. Jess held her ground, putting a lid on her annoyance. She couldn't understand why she was interested in the man that she likes. She isn't even dating Noah, for fuck sake!
"You may be thinking why I'm giving you the shit about Tiefenbacher. You see, crushing, flirting, fucking or even falling in love with that guy is not a problem - "
"W-what -"
"Let me finish Jessica. And I hope that what I will tell you is not something that you will use to decide your feelings about the poor guy. As I've told you before, I haven't met him, but I heard a lot of stories about him… and his ex-wife."
"I'm not really interested in knowing those things. I feel like I'm preparing for a situation that I'm not sure if it's going to happen."
