Lost Lombardi

Chapter 47

May was having a serious conversation with her best friends in her room at her mother's house after school. She had invited her friends over, and Enya and Lis were curious to know what it was about. Natisha was the only one who already knew.

The four girls gathered in May's room. This room wasn't as big as the one in her father's house, but it was cute and cozy. It was decorated with light shades of blue, green, yellow, and white—colors that were easy on the eyes.

"So, what's going on?" Lis asked, curious. The girls weren't wearing matching clothes today, as this was a sudden gathering.

"Well, May is finally interested in a boy," Natisha began, helping May start the conversation.

"What?" Enya and Lis said in surprise.

"I think I can guess who it is," Enya said playfully.

"Who? Is it... oh my gosh... it's Dino, isn't it?" Lis said, looking at May, who blushed like a strawberry.

"Is it serious? I thought it was just... you know, casual," Enya added.

"Well, May admitted that it's not casual," Natisha said in a serious tone.

"Oh, this is a serious matter. So, does he not like you?" Enya asked.

"Well, I think he likes her, but you know our girl doesn't have enough patience, so things are getting complicated," Natisha replied.

"Yeah, you're always rude to him," Enya added, and May's face looked disappointed.

"So, May wants to show Dino that she likes him. We're making a plan for them to talk alone," Natisha explained.

"I could tell him that you want to talk to him alone," Enya said, lying on the bed, propped up on one elbow.

"No, it shouldn't be that obvious. It should seem like we just accidentally end up alone," May finally spoke.

"Ohhh... okay. So, what's the plan?" Lis asked.

"Alright, here's the plan...," Natisha and May began to describe it to their friends.

"And we'll need Kacper's help, too," May added as she finished explaining.

"What do you guys think?" Natisha asked Enya and Lis.

"I think it's a good plan. Let's hope it works," Enya said, smiling.

After school on Friday, when Kacper went home, May was already there. As usual, Kacper didn't pay much attention to her. They were never really friendly, so he didn't bother talking to her.

"Hey, Kacper," May said.

Kacper looked at her curiously. "Yeah?"

"I need to talk to you," May said, and Kacper wondered what she wanted. Does she want to talk about Dino? he thought.

"Okay," Kacper stopped under the staircase, waiting to hear what May had to say.

"Well, can you invite Natisha on Saturday, and Dino too?" May asked.

"I thought you were going to invite her this weekend," Kacper said.

"I want you to invite her this time. You know she likes you. She'll be happy if you do it," May said, a small smile appearing on Kacper's face.
