The more I got to know Angelina, the more I liked her. It was the first time I had ever liked someone in that way, so I didn't know what to do with what I was feeling. I didn't want to get my hopes up, but her constant interest in seeing me and getting together confused me: sometimes I thought it was reciprocal, and sometimes I thought she was just looking for a person to hang out with.
"Miraaaanda, how are you doing?"
"What do you need?"

"I'm doing alright, Angelina. What about you?"
"I'm doing great! But something even greater is that a bar opened close to my college a couple of days ago and I thought, who's my favorite person to hang out with? Miraaaanda".
"And how am I supposed to get there?"
"Did you forget I have a car?"
"That would be true. Okay, let's go".
"You're the best!"
