The next morning, I didn't want to get out of bed. Derek had left my house at 1:30 a.m. because they had fixed his A/C. I was exhausted. And no, we didn't... you know what. But anyways, after awhile, I got out of bed. It was Saturday. I decided I would go to Starbucks for breakfast. I needed a break from eggs and avocado toast. I put on an outfit, black sweatpants and a pink crop top. I slid on my vans and left for breakfast.
I waited in line for quite a while. It was worth it, though. I got a latte (and maybe a pink cake pop 😅). I sat in the parking lot eating, and that's when I saw...
Garcia
I unrolled my window. "Hey, Penelope!" I yelled. She saw me and walked to my car.
"OMG, hi Alana!" She said.
"I have to ask you something." I said.
"Yeah, what is it?"
"Are you a Derek a thing?" I asked.
"What? No! We just have these flirty nicknames with each other. When we first met, he didn't know my name, so he just said baby girl." She replied.
"Ohhh... I'm sorry I didn't know."
"Wait..." Penelope said, "Do you like Derek?!"
"Umm..."
She screamed in excitement.
"OMG YOU LIKE DEREK! HE PROBABLY LIKES YOU, TOO!"
"How do you know?" I asked
"Look at you! You're gorgeous, and you have a great personality!."
I blushed. "Thank you, but it's all you."
She shook her head.
A few minutes later, she left. I drove home and sat on the couch. Would Derek ever really like me? I don't think so.
A few days later, I was getting ready for work. Here's a little pic of the outfit I wore:

I finally left and drove to work. I saw my dad on the way in.
"Well don't you look nice?" He said to me.
"Thanks, dad." I replied.
While we were walking down the halls, Derek arrived.
"Hey guys." He said.
"Hello, Derek." I said back.
We all walked in together. That's when the strangest thing happened...
Hello everyone! I'm so sorry this chapter was so short. Love you all! Thanks for reading!!
