Just friends
She reconnected with him just after she moved to New York City. He was just her high school pal who had recently returned to the neighborhood. Is it just us, or does this sound a lot like a romantic comedy? But someone didn’t know her best friend as well as he thought, or he’d evolved considerably in those three years. This love story didn’t have a happily ever after for anyone of the characters involved.
At least the high school best friend who got dumped won the last laugh. Mark was revealed to be a lot less than what people assumed, and his ex-girlfriend appeared to get exactly what she deserved. Definitely one of those tales that is more amusing in hindsight.
