Occupational Hazard

Foretold is forewarned they say. He tells me that she will be joining him on Sunday, so I will see them together. I think I feel the table shift. No, it’s the ground that moved. No, it’s neither.
Smile idiot, smile. Laugh as if  it’s all very amusing.
It is hilarious actually.
Stupid child. You can’t get jealous and insecure because she’s going to be there.
He’s worried. He thinks you might “act up”. That you might make things awkward.
Will I?
No.
Occupational hazard, I laugh as i think to myself.
When you play in this league you need to be prepared for these situations.
I’m not saying I’m not affected. I’m saying I’ve learnt to suck it up. Make like a big girl and be gracious.

Suck it up Sunshine.
