Kath confides in the narrator that she has been seeing Jess's boyfriend behind Jess's back. Jess has been acting upset because her boyfriend is behaving strangely. The narrator considers whether to tell Jess directly, stay out of it, or confront Jess's boyfriend and tell him to be honest with Jess. In one scenario, the narrator decides not to intervene but Jess finds out and feels betrayed. In another, the narrator texts the boyfriend but he doesn't tell anyone, so Jess remains unaware. The best option is for the narrator to privately tell Jess the truth, doing right by her even if it means letting down Kath.
