It still hurt. The incident. It happened right before Zach’s eyes. His “ex” best friend, Kyle, betraying him. Their seven year brotherhood, right down the drain. If Kyle told him first, he would have understood, but the way that Kyle went behind his back…revolting. It went against every single rule in the bro code. Zach couldn’t stop the small gasp of horror that escaped from him. A paralyzing chokehold of treachery ensnared him when he caught his “ex” best friend Kyle eating the Snickers bar that Zach had packed for lunch. There was no going back now. Oh, that unforgivable betrayal…

This story was meant to be as shallow as possible with a bit of sarcastic humor. Enjoy!
