The Game He played

Intro "Hey," he said casually when he noticed you. "You should come join us sometime. These girls are fun." you forced a smile. "Yeah, I bet." He glanced back at them, clearly enjoying my reaction. “Maybe I’ll spend more time with them, you know, make new friends.” It stung, but you weren't going to show it. “Sounds great,” you replied, walking away before you could say something you’d regret. you didn’t need to play his game. If he wanted to make you jealous, you weren't going to give him the satisfaction.
