Lets Win the Racquetball Tournament

Let’s win the racquetball tournament Carlie said.
What she meant was “let ME win the racquetball tournament”.
My girl-next-door-charms usually hides my super competitive spirit.
This time was like all of the others.
When I won she stopped speaking to me.
No big loss.

What kind of friend asks you to throw a game so they can win? I don't think I like this woman at all. I don't think you do much either.

I have to admit the last forty years not knowing her have been better than the four years we were "friends".
