Princess

Emily's Pov

* She's on the phone w her bstf, Rosanne
----------------------------------------------------------
The wedding news just came to me. Everything had already been planned, and there was nothing I could do. Sobbing, I call up Rosie, my bstf, whom I've known since like forever, or rather since I was ten, but whatever- It's 11:30 pm, I hope she picks up.

Rosanne: Em?

You don't know how glad I was to hear her voice, and how lucky I felt to have a friend like her. The thought of her face made me cry even more.

Rosanne's voice came yet again- "Emily, you there? Istg Em, RESPOND."

I sniff, and pick up the phone
"Hey Rosie" my voice cracked

"Em, what happened, Estimado?"

I take a moment, to take in that Spanish accent, one which I'd recognise anywhere.

"R-Rosanne, I need to vent, right now" I manage to say

"Por amor de Dios, Is it about the wedding? I already know, estimado, I know. You can speak"

So they had told her before ME. Great.

"I HAVE NOTHING TO FUCKING SAY. ITS ALREADY BEEN PLANNED, I HAD NO GODDAMN SAY IN THIS, AND ITS ALREADY BEEN PLANNED FULLY. IDK HOW TF I'LL MANAGE, EVERYTHINGS CHANGING SO FUCKING FAST AND I-" I start crying.

Rosanne chuckled

"Mi amore, I know i get it. I understand. But one thing I can say is- Control your anger, ja? It's not good for you. Remember that time when we told you that you couldn't take the lead for the play in 6th grade, and you got so angry that-"

"Okay okay enough" I let out a light laugh. Rosie really knew how to make me laugh, or atleast smile.

"Anyway, mi amore, I have to go, mi madre es in the room, I have to help her with a some 'super important presentation' at work tomorrow. Take care, I love you. Adios"

"Goodbye Rosie" i smile. I don't know what she did, but it definitely made me feel so much better.

Damn, was I lucky to have someone like her in my life.
