"I'm not really addicted to you, Everest. Lately, I've been addicted to the idea of dumping your ass because
you're the worst boyfriend any girl could ask for." He looks shocked for a moment, not knowing what to say to
me. "It's not what it looks like, babe," he pathetically says and I let out a short chuckle.

at Everest's face.
