182 Days Of Beautiful Disasters

Day 16 ; me , myself and Mia

Mia's house was always welcoming , I don't know if it's about the warmth and coziness of the atmosphere , or her family who considered me as part of them . maybe it was in the pictures hung on the walls in every corner , or the homemade spaghetti smell that always swarmed in the air , but whatever it is , I'm pretty sure I'll ever find a place as welcoming as Mia's house .

She had a two story bed , the upper one was occupied by a teddy bear collection , arranged by size . her guitar rested on a chair near her desk , next to a pile of clothes on the ground . she had a big square black framed IKEA mirror like the one I had in my room . I guess we both had a thing for IKEA , the place kind of makes you feel you have your life together , in the most literal and metaphorical way possible .

I centered myself on the couch and stared at the ceiling , letting out a long breath , she rolled over in bed to face me , and smiled .

"young love , I see ?" , she teased .

I threw a cushion at her, "he.has.a.girlfriend.mia.stop."

"well I know , but I ain't the one who looks like she probably named her second child from him in her head", she still teased with the most idiotic smile on her face .

"shut up , that's not true !" I denied

"oh babe it's all over your face , look at you , you're turning tomato red"

I felt all the blood rise up to my face and my face was on fire . I loved and hated Mia for one thing , her ability to read me .

She allows me to see the good and the bad about me by stating what she observes , but she makes me also realize how dumb I sound or look sometimes and oh my lord this time I knew I was a fool . a fool for him , and nothing could stop it .

"can you just be careful?" she sounded worried .

"he didn't tell her" I avoided her eyes .

"fuck"

"I know"

"wow ,what were the chances .."

For a girl who leaves things for luck , the chances were quite big .
