"Yeah, I guess it is," I admit, the set of my mouth tightening for a moment. Tunny and I have talked about it, and we decided just to let it be, but I can't help but wonder if it's a mistake in the end, being with him when I'm still in love with someone else.

Two someone elses.

The problem is, Tom's gone and Mike's dead. No amount of waiting will bring them back, and no amount of waiting will stop me from being in love with them. So, my alternative is to be alone forever.
