"Text her! Call her! FaceTime her! Do something!" Lauren was jumping all around once she found out Bahja gave me her number.

"Lauren, I don't like this girl."

"Oh please." She scoffed, "you love her, if you didn't you wouldn't even be making an effort to be with her."

"I don't wanna be with her smartass."

"Well you obviously wanna be around her."

"No that's not it either."

"So what is it?"

"I wanna teach her something..." I sighed, "she needs to learn that everything doesn't come easy to everyone. Overall she needs to humble herself."

"Is it even possibly to teach someone to humble their self?"

"I don't know... But I'm gonna try."

"Well, can I at least text her?"

"Umm no."

"I mean," she got up from the floor and sat on the couch, "from your phone... As if it's you texting her but it's really me."

"No Lauren--"

Before I could finish, she snatched the phone from me. Rolling her eyes and putting Bahja's number in to text her. I didn't hesitate to take it back from her because personally, I didn't want to text her. I didn't know what to say.

"Okay."

To Bahja:

Hey, it's Zonnique😘

"No, don't put that kissy face. She's gonna think I like her."

Lauren looked up at me, "but you do like her."

"As a friend... Well I liked her as a friend before I found out what an asshole she was."

"Girl whatever."

She erased the emoji off and hit send. Almost immediately Bahja read it and begin typing.

"Either she was waiting on that text, or she's a fast texter." Lauren stated.

"Eh, maybe a little bit of both."

From Bahja:

Hey😘I was afraid you wouldn't text me.

"See? She used the emoji."

"Girl continue." I urged her on.

To Bahja:

Yeah, lol... My little sister made me text u.

Before I could stop her, she hit send. She smirked and I glared at her.

From Bahja:

Oh she made you? Your LITTLE sister, MADE you text me? Is it that you didn't want to or is she just intimidating?

To Bahja:

Both... Kinda. It's not that I didn't wanna text u, I just didn't know what to say.

"You can sit here and pretend to be me talking to a complete stranger, but you can't gain the balls to talk to your crush?"

"This and talking to my crush are two different things... I'm talking to your crush for you."

"She's not my crush Lauren damn."

Lauren laughed at my frustration as Bahja text back.

From Bahja:
