Last time we had a girl's night we transformed Anna and we had a new member of a group. Today I guess we'll limit ourselves to gossip and do "girly" things.
"How about we bake cookies?," asks Cleo.
"Sure," says Anna.
"I've been craving sugar cookies for the longests." I say and my mouth waters from just imagining it.
"I've been craving chocolate chip." Says Cleo.
"We can do both."
"So, do you guys have a crush on anyone?" asks Anna towards Cleo and I. While we were making the dough and making a mess too.
"No."
"Yes."
"Oh that's a bummer Cleo, there's no one out there who catches your attention?" asks Anna.
"Yes, my dad, when I'm in trouble. Other than that, no one else."
"What about you Lena? Have you considered the idea of dating that person?" asks Anna, looking really interested in what I am about to say.
"I can't." I say simply
"What?!?Why not?"
"Easy, he's a fictional character." I say simply trying really hard not to laugh at Anna's opened mouth.
"Hard confession, huh." Says Cleo, laughing at Anna's surprise.
While the cookies we're baking we put on our face masks and choose a movie to watch. We decide to watch Geek Charming. I feel you Josh.
After all that we take a seat and start to devour our cookies and of course we drink the smoothies we have made.
"Anything to say, Anna?" asks Cleo.
"About, what?"
"Oh, come on. Don't you dare act stupid on us. You know exactly what we're talking about. However, I'll be nice and give you a hint, it starts with A and ends in Y." I say, losing my patience. I've talked to Andrey a couple times and I can clearly notice he is falling hard. No one ever has been able to melt his heart a little, but then Anna comes and melts it almost instantly. I need to know what she feels.
"Oh, that. I have nothing to say, we're just friends." She says, avoiding eye contact.
"JUST FRIENDS! You have to be kidding me. There's no way you and Andrey are just friends. Leave that just friends to me and Lena. However you Anna are more than just a friend. Have you not seen the way he looks at you?"
"How does he look at me?"
"As if you were the only girl on the planet. The rarest flower in the world. His most valuable treasure. All his dreams come true. The shiniest star in the night sky. He looks at you the same way my father looks at the pictures of his deceased wife." As soon as all that leaves my mouth I remember we have tres leches cake in the fridge and decide to take it out and eat it.
"Does he really look at me like that?"
"Definitely. He looks at you the same way Selena looks at her food."
I look up from my cake and see they're both staring at me. I have my mouth full of cake and crumbs all over my face.
"What?" I ask and they both start laughing.
"Delete it." I say after I see a flash.
"NOPE! You look so adorable." Squeals Cleo.
"Delete it Cleo or I won't make you tamales anymore." I threaten. She looks at me, opens her mouth to say something. However I know she's having a debate in that brain of hers.
"I'll make the sacrifice. You know, what? This picture will look perfect as my wallpaper."
As soon as the words leave her mouth I tackle her and soon my living room became a boxing match.
"STOP!"
Anna's scream made us freeze in our places.
"How in the world did a conversation about me and Andrey end up with you two fighting?"
"Umm, sorry...?" We both say at the same time.
"So, tell us what Andrey makes you feel?" Says Cleo, suddenly more excited.
"Don't think I forgot about the picture you took." I whisper into Cleo's ear.
"Well. I don't know. Ugh. I'm really confused."
"Explain yourself." I say, clearly losing my patience because of all the drama. I can be really chimosa and entrometida sometimes. It's one of my many imperfections.
"Look before I thought I loved Jaxon and I thought my feelings for him were real. However, I wasn't in love with Jaxon. I was only in love with the image he gave me and when that image shattered it shattered my heart too. Then here comes Andrey, the typical bad boy, and helps me pick up all the pieces. He also has an image that shattered once I met him. Behind the mask he wears there's someone so delicate and pure. But I'm scared, girls. I'm really scared of having my heart broken again."
"Look I'll guarantee you that Andrey and Jaxon have nothing alike. Plus like Selena said before he looks at you in a really special way." Says Cleo trying to cheer her up.
"Look. Love is a concept no human can understand 100%. It can have a negative effect on you and shatter you to pieces. It can make you feel like someone just tore your heart out. If and only if that love goes towards the wrong person. A lot of people have gone through that type of heartbreak. I know maybe I am not the most adequate person to speak about this but I can say for sure I'll never be afraid to love. Therefore, don't let fear stop you from going towards your other half and having a beautiful ending full of happiness and true love."
"How come you're not afraid to love, you're beautiful, talented, and wise. Yet again you still haven't dated anyone?" asks Anna.
"Ah, that has a simple explanation. Thanks to the books I've read I have really high standards and none of the guys I have met have reached all of them. I'm not looking for the perfect guy in general, however I'm looking for the perfect guy for me. Mi media naranja. Like we say in Mexico."
"Chat is really nice and all, but I'm really tired." Says Cleo, yawning.
Once we were all tucked in bed. I hear a ring under my butt.
