She's torn between the two. Her dream guy, and the guy she has been longing for. They each bring huge amounts of trouble into her life, but who will she choose in the end?

I just got back to Corona this morning after a long flight from the Bronx. While Tori and my son were on their spring break vacations, I spent a few days in New York making sure my boutique down there was running smoothly.
I'm getting everything together to open my second boutique here in California. I bought the space on Melrose Ave, all thats left is to decorate the inside. I had an online store as well, which crashes damn near every day.
I loved being a designer. I appreciate every single person who buys from my store and website. I don't design just to make money, I design to give women clothes that they are guaranteed to feel sexy, comfortable, and confident in.
Right now, I'm sitting at an outside table at one of my favorite bistros. I was meeting a friend here today. I looked over the menu, ordering a long island iced tea and a chicken salad.
"I'll have the same please."
I looked up and saw my girl Gina. She pulled out her chair and sat down. I watched as she put her purse behind her chair and smiled.
"There you are girl, long time no see."
"Girl, the real estate market has been kicking my ass. But how's the boutique coming along?"
Gina was a realtor. I actually met her when she was selling me houses. I had just moved from New York to Cali and didn't know anyone. I came here with my kids for a fresh start and she was my first friend. Our daughters are really close friends and I would classify us as the same.
With both of our busy schedules, we barely had time to hang out anymore. But the money don't make itself. Gina actually said she had some tea for me, so I was all for this little meeting. The waiter then brought over our drinks and salad, and I dug in immediately.
"Its coming. I've been trying to figure out how I want it decorated. I want the inside different from the one in New York." She nodded her head and took a sip from her drink.
"So how was the Bahamas? Let me know if Tori gave you any trouble so I can go home right now and beat her ass." I ate more of my salad as she broke out in laughter. Tori can't stop talking about the damn trip. Im glad she had fun though.
"Thats the tea I have to give you, girl."
She got my full attention when she mentioned the word tea. I need to know what tea she could possibly get in Atlantis.
"Im listening." She pushed her bowl to the side and started to spill what she had.
"So, in the Bahamas, Nicole let it slip that our girls have boyfriends."
Boyfriends? I had no problem with a boyfriend, but the way she said it had me questioning my thoughts. I brought my drink to my mouth, motioning for her to continue.
"And Nicole is like, 'oh they're really nice guys, but not the kind of guy you would want her with'. So she's telling me not to be upset so I'm like whatever, just to dead the conversation. I really wanted to know who these guys were so I start lurking on Gabriella's Instagram page."
