~ The b(ad)est apology. ~

The doorbell rings, and I stand up. I open the door. I didn't expect what I am confronted with.
On the doorstep, looking like just jumped out of a fashion magazine – means clothed in a deep blue dress with silver pearls as a necklace and earrings, fitting white sneakers and a matching white coat – there stands my former best friend aka Amy.

"Amy?! What are you doin' here?!" I cross my arms. She's definitely not getting inside. If this is gonna be an apology, it has to be the best, most thoughtful and honest apology, that a former best friend ever gave to someone. And even then, I'm not sure, if I would accept this apology. I've been thinking a lot about a lot of things, and being the dumb friend again is not on my list.

"Can I come in?"

I don't move. "What do you want?"

She doesn't waste many words on being polite – her next words make clear that she didn't come by for a thoughtful and honest apology. "He asked me to write a song with him. To work on his album to be precise," Amy says, and I can see that her eyes are red, I don't know if from crying or from partying.

"How ... nice." I'm so glad I have my voice under control.

"Mandy, you need to help me."

What?
I stare at her. "What do you mean?"

Stupid question. I already know what she's asking for. But she can't be serious, can she?

She can.

"You need to help me write a song for him!"
