Friday, 15th of November 1968:
Trixie was standing in front of Katya's door. Before she knocked, she told herself. 'C'mon, be cordial, be positive. She's going to like you' . She was probably a drama queen, but meeting Adore and hanging out with her was a challenge for her. Often she would curse herself for being this immature, she's probably a good person.
Katya opened up the door and let her in, quickly Adore was coming towards her and hugged her.
"Hi, so nice to see you again!" At first she was kinda shocked about her warm personality but it made her smile, her worries disappearing right away. She reciprocated her hug.
"Hi, so nice to see you too." As they ended their hug, the brunette quickly added.
"I brought my Monopoly, I didn't know if you guys wanted to play..."
"Sure!" Trixie quickly responded. "But you have to teach me, because I've never played it before."
"Same here..." Katya added.
That's how they started their afternoon, playing this board game and drinking some tea. Trixie had brought some pastries that she had made that morning at work and for her delight, Adore had praised her cooking skills, eating almost all of it.
Katya was right, Adore was a great person. She was chill, funny and so easy to talk to. She wasn't judgemental at all and she appreciated that a lot. She wondered if the russian had told her before that she used to be jealous of her; probably not. Either way, she had enjoyed their little get together a lot.
As it was expected, Adore won easily. She left them almost in bankruptcy by the end of the game. But Katya wanted to try again, so they played another game, and again and until it was getting dark outside. They decided to quit the game and ordered some pizza.

Half an hour later, they were sitting on Katya's couch, eating pizza and watching Bewitched. Adore was a big fan as well.
"Uncle Arthur it's so funny..." The brunette commented, before taking another bite of her pizza. "He's my favorite"
"I know!" Trixie agreed, as she cleaned her mouth that was stained with a little bit of sauce. Katya looked at her and gave her a wink that Adore didn't notice, her whole attention on the TV. She grinned playfully at the russian, winking to her as well. They liked to send signals to each other, and it was kind of funny and adorable at the same time. Most of the time, Katya had a bad time trying to pretend they were best friends in front of others; since Trixie found out recently that she was clingy, but she also discovered that she loved it.
As her gaze was concentrated on the TV again, Katya spoke to her friend. "Hey Adore, did your boyfriend get that job that he wanted?"
"Oh yeah, he was so happy. He promised me that soon we might live together!" Trixie was surprised that she had a boyfriend but at the same time, not. Adore is very beautiful and charming. For some strange reason she was a little bit relieved that she had a boy friend. 'Trixie Mattel, grow up' , she told herself.
"What?! Really? What did your mom say?" Katya asked, excited and delighted by her friend's news.
"She wasn't that happy at first. But I think I'll convince her."
"What job?" Trixie asked the brunette.
"He's going to work in the local newspaper, as a photographer!"
"Wow, that's cool!"
"I know, I'm so happy for him!" Adore smiled genuinely to her, hey joy was evident. "So, Trixie. Where are you from again?"
