Tuva took another way home and passed some shops with cute decorations, so she decided to take a look inside.
She opened the door and a small bell rang that was right above the door.
She looked up as she heard it and when she looked down again there was a girl light brown slightly curly hair standing infront of her.
„hello, are you looking for something specific?"
Tuva took a quick look on the nametag of the girl that works here.
Benthe keogh.
She was called benthe keogh.
Tuva noticed she looked a bit confused at her so she spoke up.
„Oh sorry hey, well I just moved here and was looking for some decoration for my apartment."
She answered her.
„Okey sure follow me"
Benthe said as she turned around and walked deeper into the shop.
Tuva followed her still looking a bit around.
„Here are some room decorations, if you can't find anything you like on the other side of the shelf are others."
Benthe said with a small smile on her face.
„Thank you!"
Tuva answered kindly.
She turned to the decoration there were some things that she found cute.
As she was looking at the price of some fake flowers she heard the bell ring and looked to the door.
Two Men walked in.
One was a bit taller than the other and had darker skin.
His hair was in dreads and he wore cowboy shoes?
Wait cowboy shoes?
Tuva thought that reminded her alot of her dad, the other one wore them too.
She inspected these two guys a little longer until the taller one looked at her.
She immediately looked away.
He looked very familiar to her, she just didn't know why.

While benthe couldn't stop staring at the shorter one.
He had beautiful dark hair kind of curly.
He was wearing a jacket over a band shirt.
Jeans and cowboy boots.
He came here often so benthe already knew him.
She had spoken already a few times to him but only if he asked her where something was or if he could use the bathroom.
Always after speaking to him for a short moment she mentally kicked herself for not asking for his number or even just his name.
She somehow felt attracted to him even though they didn't know eachother.

Tuva decided to leave and come back another day.
She stood up and walked past the two boys, catching another eye contact with the dreadhead.
„Have a good day!"
Benthe said , but a bit too late Tuva was already out of the door.

Tuva opened the door, she had a strange feeling in her stomach since she left that shop and she didn't knew why.
She sighed as she put her hands in her pockets.
A piece of paper was in it and then she remembered to call Alyssa.
She took out the piece of paper and typed the numbers on her phone.
Brrr.
Brrr.
„Hello??"
A voice on the phone said.
„Alyssa? Hey I'm Tuva the girl from the cafe"
„Oh hello! Did you get home safely?"
Tuva was a bit surprised that she asked this how kind.
„Yes thank you for asking. Well would you like to come over?? Help me decorate the apartment and have a glass of wine maybe?"
Tuva asked her hoping she'd say yes.
She didn't want to be alone right now because that strange feeling still hasn't disappeared.
„Sure!! Sorry but could I bring a friend of mine? She loves to decorate and she is really kind!"
Tuva didn't actual mind.
She was happy she could make friends.
„Yeah sure I don't mind, I live in the rialto street."
„Great we'll be there in half an hour, see you!!"
„See you!"
Okey so she had half an hour time for herself now.
She put her stuff down and went into the kitchen making herself a tea to calm her down from that strange feeling.
As she finished making her tea she sat down thinking about what could possibly cause this odd feeling.
Then she remembered, that boy, it all started with that boy.
But she didn't understand why and what that odd feeling is.
I mean she didn't feel attracted to him or something, sure he was a good looking men but Tuva was never the kind of person to fall in love with someone only because of their looks and without knowing them.
But then it hit her.
She remembered he looked familiar, very familiar.
But that's probably just a coincidence she thought and decided to push those weird feelings out of the way.
She began scrolling a bit through instagram while sipping her tea.

Suddenly someone knocked at her door.
She jumped up, quickly put her cup away and walked to the door.
As she opened the door she saw Alyssa standing infront of it and next to her a beautiful girl with long brown hair.
"Heyy Alyssa and...eh?"
Tuva looked at the girl next to Alyssa with a questionable look to indicate her that she's asking her for her name.
"Hi I'm maki"
That girl now known as maki said with a smile on her face
"Well hello maki , come in!"
Tuva said as she led them inside.
"Sooo how can we help?"
Alyssa asked Tuva with a grin on her face.
Well tuvas desire to decorate her apartment was actually gone for the day.
"Well how about doing this another day I'm not really in the mood to decorate right now! But we can open a bottle of wine and talk!"
She said giggling a bit.
Tuva hadn't had just a talk with friends while sipping wine meetup in a long time, she really could need it right now.
"Okey sure!"
Maki said smiling.
"Yeah fine by me"
Alyssa said while sitting down the couch.
"I'm just gonna grab a bottle of wine real quick"
Tuva said as she walked into the kitchen.

Meanwhile Alyssa and maki were getting comfortable on the couch.
"Do you really think it's her?"
Maki asked alyssa.
"It could be I mean she has the same name and also lived in Sweden"
"Yeah but she's so different then how josh told us! But in a good way!!"

Tuva returned with a bottle of wine smiling.
"So tell me how did you two meet?"
She asked the two other girls in the room.
"Actually we know eachother because of our best friends...you remember that asthmatic band I told you earlier??-"
Maki burst out laughing
"Asthmatic?!?! I'm gonna cry!!"
The other two began to laugh too.
"Well I mean they kinda are!"
Maki admitted.
"yess that's what I'm saying! Well back to your question. My best friends name is robert and he's the bassist of those asthma guys and her best friend..."
Alyssa pointed at maki.
"Is elijah the lead singer"
Tuva began laughing again.
"Sorry guys I just can't with that asthmatic thingy!!"

It was an evening filled with laughter and joy.
With funny stories and traumatic ones.
Everyone was a bit tipsy because of the wine but it was not bad.
Alyssa took a look at the clock.
"Oh it's getting late we probably should head home"
She said with a kind of sad tone.
"Oh yeah, but thanks for coming i enjoyed talking to you guys!"
They both smiled at tuva as they started walking towards the door.
"Well then, we'll see you!"
Maki said waving at Tuva.
"Yes, oh and alyssa don't forget to send me makis telephone number!"
"I won't!!"
Alyssa yelled going already downstairs.
When Tuva couldn't see them anymore she closed the door and started walking towards the bathroom to put on her Pyjamas.
She was really tired so she quickly removed her makeup, brushed her teeth and went to bed.
Tomorrow was going to be a special day.
Her first day in journalism school.
She was excited but also scared...
