Debbie and Tammy were lounging in Tammy's living room, enjoying a relaxed evening together while Daphne was in her bedroom. Debbie had been gathering the courage to have a conversation with Tammy, and now, the moment had finally arrived.
"Tammy, there's something I want to tell you," Debbie began, her voice tinged with a mix of nervousness and anticipation. "I've been avoiding this conversation, but I really want to talk to you about it."
Tammy looked at Debbie, her expression calm and attentive. "Go ahead, Deb," she encouraged, giving her friend a reassuring smile.
Taking a deep breath, Debbie spoke her truth. "I'm seeing Lou," she confessed. "We're friends. We spend a lot of time together."
Tammy's response caught Debbie off guard. "I know, Debbie," she replied nonchalantly.
Debbie's eyes widened in surprise. "What? How do you know? Who told you?" she asked, her curiosity piqued.
Tammy chuckled, shaking her head. "Deb, I didn't need anyone to tell me," she said knowingly. "I can see it on your face. Your smile is back, your eyes are sparkling again. And let's not forget, you're not always dressed in black, even though it's winter."
Debbie was taken aback, a mixture of astonishment and relief washing over her. "Wait...really?" she asked, seeking confirmation.
Tammy nodded, a warm and understanding expression on her face. "Yeah, Deb. That's a surprise for no one. I was just waiting for you to confirm it," she said.
"Wow..." whispered the brunette.
"I won't lie, Deb," Tammy admitted, her tone sincere. "I have my concerns about you getting involved with Lou again. But at the end of the day, all I want is for you to be happy. As long as you two are just friends."
Debbie nodded, appreciating Tammy's honesty and support
Tammy reached out and placed a comforting hand on Debbie's arm. "That's all I ask, Deb. Just make sure you're looking out for yourself. You've been through a lot, and I don't want to see you hurt again."
Debbie smiled gratefully at her friend, feeling a sense of relief that Tammy was willing to be there for her despite her reservations. "Thank you, Tam-Tam."
Debbie's eyes were filled with excitement as she turned to Tammy. "There's more," she said, her voice barely containing her enthusiasm. Tammy couldn't help but mirror her friend's anticipation as she asked, "What?"
Debbie took a deep breath before sharing the incredible news. "Well, you and Daphne are invited to Hawaii with Lou, Constance, Nine, and me. It's a gift from Lou's family for the success of her club."
Tammy's jaw dropped in disbelief. "What?" she exclaimed, her voice a mix of surprise and awe.
As Tammy tried to process the incredible invitation, Debbie continued to explain. "You know, her father is almost the CEO of an airline company, and her mother-in-law has a house in Hawaii."
Tammy's mind raced with questions. "How?" she asked, unable to comprehend the incredible opportunity.
Debbie shrugged, a smile spreading across her face. "I don't know, she's rich, maybe," she replied.
Tammy clarified her question, realizing what truly mattered. "No, I'm not asking how she got a house. I just... Oh my god! Is this real?"
Debbie nodded, her eyes shining with excitement. "Well, yes," she confirmed.
Unable to contain her excitement any longer, Tammy called out to Daphne, urging her to join the conversation. "Daphne, come here! You're not going to believe it."
