Tuesday, June 22nd Melrose Liquor Market, Los Angeles
"Amelia?" Diamant hummed as she tapped her index finger against her chin, browsing the wine aisle of the liquor store.
"Yes Dia?"
"Which one do you think I should get for tonight?"
"I'm technically not even supposed to be in here," the 20 year old nervously responded.
"What does that have to do with helping me pick a wine choice?"
"How can I help you pick if you won't even tell me what it's for?"
"It's for dinner with a friend," Diamant stopped in front of the merlot red wines, knowing that they pair well with steak, and that's what Aurora said she was making.
"What friend?" Amelia questioned her.
"Aurora," Diamant quietly responded.
"Oh yeah, she did mention that she was making you dinner."
"She did?" Diamant turned to face Amelia now.
"She told Alex. I was just there," she shrugged, completely unmoved by this news.
"She did?" Diamant just repeated.
"Yeah. Said something about wanting to impress you, so she asked me what kind of foods you like to eat. And I'm guessing you guys had quite a good time together in Saint Lucia last week to still be hanging around each other this much."
"So you know about Saint Lucia?"
"That y'all spent the week together? Was it supposed to be a secret or something?"
"Not really. Just didn't think she told anyone," Diamant mumbled.
"Oh she didn't tell us that part. But she was gone for a week. You were gone for that same exact amount of time... Plus, that's where she was born, isn't it? It wasn't that hard to put two and two together."
"We just went as friends," Diamant felt the need to add.
"I didn't ask, but okay," Amelia nodded her head.
Diamant doesn't know much about wine. Actually, she knows absolutely nothing about wine. All she was doing was wasting time browsing each one like she had any idea on what she was even looking for.
"Girl, just pick one," Amelia was getting very impatient now. "You act like you gonna become a wine expert by looking at the logo on each bottle or sumn."
"Okay. Damn," Diamant ended up choosing a $400 bottle of Merlot from some Tuscany, Italy brand.
"She likes you, yuh know," Amelia clicked her seatbelt once they got back in the car.
