Ana, a 14 year old middle schooler, was talking to her mother about school.
He mother was listening and added a few of her own comments from time to time, and then she told Ana that there would be a few of her friends coming over for dinner tommorow, and Ana just said "okay" as a reply.
The evening passed and Ana had had another normally boring, average day at school again. Which her mother asked about and Ana answered to.
After more talk, the door bell rang and Ana looked surprisingly to the door, and said,"i'll get it!"
She opened the door and stood to one side and welcome their visitors, who were only women, inside. They looked about as old as mom, Ana thought. The last woman to step inside had blonde hair, which was very pretty to Ana. She thought of how she would like if she had blonde hair as a woman.
The blonde woman was pretty.
She gave Ana a quick small smile as she stepped in. Ana liked that and she also smiled back at the pretty lady.
Throughout the adult talk that mom was having with her lady friends Ana kept hearing laughter as if they were talking about the things that made them laugh like this before, when they were younger. Ana wasn't listening to their conversation topics though. She was looking at her phone and laughing quietly and smiling at some pictures of her friends.
The pretty woman walked right by Ana into the kitchen, and Ana looked around the frame of the door to peek at what she was doing. The woman turned around and caught Ana looking so she smiled and she asked Ana,
"where are the dessert spoons? Your mom asked me to get them for the creme brulee we're having." Ana got off her seat and she opened the drawer for the small utensils and she took out one dessert spoon for the pretty lady.
"here."she said and the woman smiled at her appreciatively. Ana  smiled because the woman's smile was very contagious. The woman took out a few more spoons and said,"Thanks you very much. I still haven't heard your name anywhere so....." and Ana immediately answered her," im Ana, and what about you?" and the woman told her, "Ana is a great name. I'm Llorance. Its a great honor to meet you."
Ana was happy that she knew this pretty woman's name now.
She went back to her phone as the woman also went back to her adult conversation.

Mom's guests were leaving. Ana held the door for the women as they talked to her mother from outside the door, they were taking long, and talking about when they could meet up again, and smiling nicely. After the women decided to finally see each other again some time, Ana shut the door and her mother went to tidy the dishes into the sink. Ana went into the kitchen and asked her mother," Mom, who was the woman with the blonde hair?" and her mother smiled while washing the dishes, and told Ana, "she's my friend from university. We both studied art history and we were roomates in the school's dorm." Ana listened to her attentively. "Why, are you interested in her?" her mother asked. She looked at Ana and Ana's answer was," no, she's just really pretty and really nice. And also i want blonde hair in the future, so i hope i look as nice as her when i grow up." Ana said with a smile.
"i think you would look great with blonde hair honey." her mother said while turning back to washing the dishes.
Ana wondered when she would get to see this pretty woman called Llorance again.
