series of lies #10: best ex-boyfriend of a roommate of mine


he started dating a new girl. i told my room mate that she was a homely girl who just learned how to put make up on last week
& i was playing earth wind & fire* on my iTunes and that is her ex-boyfriend's favorite band and when she asked me if it was in fact earth wind & fire playing i said,
no,
and she looked at me.

...
i just lied, i said.

i know, she grunted.

i don't wanna change it, i said. i changed it and we continued to do our homework. she drew a self portrait and i spent three hours planning my future.

*it is not earth wind & fire but if i said the actual band some things would make too much sense.
