She knows that she should stop this while she still can.

Yet here she is; waiting inside her car, in front of Helen's apartment, so that the two of them could go to this new cafe nearby the park.

They've been dating for a month now, she recalls. It's truly been a nice experience though. Helen is nicer than she thought she'd be. It's hard to enjoy such things when you know it's all fake though. She let out a frustrated sigh as she ran her fingers through her hair. She shouldn't have agreed to this, she should've backed out when she started getting hopeful. Helen steps out of the front door, waving wildly at her with an all too lovely smile on her face that makes her heart do flips. She never stood a chance.
