Best Friends by Mistake

IX. On the street

It's almost evening and the sun is about to go down. Cece is walking fast carrying  a shopping bag and is talking on the phone. 

Cece: Denisa, can you imagine what would happen is I met Michael now? My hickey is enormous! (says frustrated) 

Denisa: But how did he make it that big ? 

Cece(breathes heavily because of walking fast): I don't know! I don't even know why he did this!(says nervous)

Denisa: Why did you allow him, then? 

Cece: I didn't...but I didn't know what he was going to do...until... 

Cece sees Michael and has a terrified expression on her face. 

Cece: Damn...Michael is... (says quietly to Denisa) 

Michael runs into Cece. 

Michael: How are you? (hugs Cece) 

Cece hugs him still having a terrified expression on her face. 

Cece: I'm fine, I'm going home...I'm in a rush...(looks at Michael nervously, hoping he doesn't see the hickey) 

Michael: Oh...um..(says disappointed) 

Cece: Denisa, I'll talk to you later..(ends the phone conversation) Um, Michael, baby, mom needs me as soon as possible, I have to give her what I bought..I'm so sorry...(looks sadly at Michael)  

Michael: No problem... can you go out later? 

Cece: No...I have a lot homework...

Michael looks at Cece's neck and she is about to leave. 

Michael: What do you have on your neck?(asks suspiciously) 

Cece: Um...nothing..I fell last night and yea...(says even more frustrated)  Silly me (fakes a laugh) Look, I really have to go, ok? Love you (smiles as she leaves quickly)

Michael: Bye... (says a bit nervous)
