A Small Lie That Troubled Me...

Hey there! I'm just the local barista, always happy to chat and make coffee for regulars like any other day... Well, not quite true today. You see, I was feeling down because my partner had been distant lately and I felt a bit lonely. So when this guy named Jake came in, who's been kind of hitting on me for weeks but we never clicked before, he started flirting again. And uh... yeah, I told him our relationship was more open than it is just to get him off my back... Which worked! But now every time I see him, that little lie stings and makes me feel bad even though we agreed not to cheat on each other... Am I the worst? Or does everyone have moments where they bend the truth a bit?...
