“So what do you think I gave Malcolm? quietly replied Stacy. “Your body! Seeing that you are having his baby, I’d say that sex was involved in what you gave Malcolm” Carter stated angrily. “What if I did? Did that give you the right to talk to me the way you are talking to me right now?” demanded Stacy. “Maybe the way you are making me feel right now is the reason I friend-zoned you in the first place. Not that I wasn’t willing to give you my body too” quietly answered Stacy. “ It’s just that by the time you came into my life Carter, I’d made mistakes that have forever changed my lifestyle and my purpose in life. I wanted a new start and I thought I could get that with you” voiced Stacy.
“You can! shouted Carter. Then sounding defeated, Carter said, “Or you could have but now it’s too late. You’re having another man’s baby”. Not knowing what to say, Stacy just stood there waiting to see if Carter would continue. When he did, he said “I wasn’t ready for the type of relationship you were asking me for at the time Stace. I thought we would just have fun together and hang out here and there. The more we were together, the more I wanted to be intimate with you. I knew you were different from the other girls I’ve been with but in some ways you were the same. Then when I pushed for a sexual relationship with you, you froze up on me. You friend-zoned me and apparently you’ve moved on” confessed Carter.
“I moved on Carter because I could see you and I would always be at odds about being in a physical relationship. I didn’t want the hassle and pain of always having to tell you no because of a decision I’d made to purposely change my life for the better. So you thinking I’ve given Malcolm the very thing you know I couldn’t give you means I made the best decision for Me when I moved on from you” stated Stacy. “And just so you know, Malcolm and I were rehearsing for the play that I invited you to come support me in, remember? I had hoped that I could let you in on why my life has been changed and that I hoped that you and I could remove the friend zone stigma from our relationship. But apparently I was wrong” replied Stacy as she walked off.
