Teresa looked at the screen of her laptop. She had enough of the work that day. It seemed to never end. She was the one allocated in the computer rooms for three hours.

Thomas was on the other side of WICKED headquarters right now. She missed him terribly.

A crazy thought passed in her mind.

It wasn't crazy though. They were going out since a week now so she could do what she was thinking of doing.

Wrote a poem for him.

She laughed on the inside, thinking how ridiculous she must look. She was glad there was no one around looking at her mad behaviour.

A muffled laugh escaped her mouth. It was making her crazy, all of this.

It was the first time she had felt this alive.

She took a piece of paper and started. She already knew what she wanted to say to him.

Since when had she become a poet? She thought, wanting to laugh again.

She wrote and wrote. Words coming from her heart.

She smiled while writing, imagining the face Thomas would have made at that. She hoped he would like it.

Then she was done writing, and as she read the few lines she had wrote, she felt satisfied. That was enough. They were words from her heart. And they were enough to show her love.

The bounced from her seat when an alarm got off. She realized it was just the alarm that indicated it was time for her to go. Her work was done for the day.

She closed the laptop and took the piece of paper and put it in her pocket.

She left the room and as she was walking she saw Rachel coming toward her.

"Hey, Teresa." She said, smiling. She was a great friend and Teresa was grateful to have her, and Aris. It made things more...easy (if she could call easy the life she was living). It made it bearable.

"Hello Rachel" Teresa said. Then a thought came in her mind. "Listen, can you do me a favour?"

"Of course, what is it?" Rachel smiled.

"Can you give this letter to Thomas for me?" She said  taking out the letter from her pocket.

Rachel smiled and said. "Awww, of course I will"

Teresa trusted her so she gave her the letter with the poem.

"See you then" Rachel said. "And I don't promise that I will not read it, because I probably won't resist." she winked and started walking off.

Teresa smiled.

She loved her friends.

She could trust them forever.
