she loves me, she loves me not

Chapter 31: She's perfect

early update ! tell me what you think in the comments

Maritza took her shower with Gloria as her bodyguard outside the stall and Flaca was pacing from side to side panicking as she was terrified to tell her about her family, one member in particular...

"is she still here?"

Maritza asked as she peeked her head from the curtain, water dripping from her nose.

"about to leave"

Gloria whispered as she eyed Maria down watching her pack her toiletries and walk out of the bathroom.

"she gone"

Gloria says.

"ughh finally"

Maritza groans as she quickly gets out with a towel that went around her twice since she had a small body. She starts brushing her now wet hair while she filled Gloria with what happened with Ruiz and Flaca in the bathroom.

"you ready?"

Gloria asks as she sees the small Latina packing her toiletries after moisturizing her face, plucking her eyebrows, brushing her teeth and giving herself a 15 minute speech.

she was wearing a short sleeve prison t-shirt and sweatpants, She tilts her head to the side and puts her hand through her hair so that she creates a side part on the left, she slowly comes upright and roughs up her hair to give it volume.

"yeah, you gonna be in your dorm right?"

Maritza asks after inhaling sharply.

"yeah of course why?"

Gloria asks in confusion.

"I'm coming out to her and Mac imma need some emotional support after, I ain't gonna get it her from her"

Maritza says quietly looking down to the sink.

"and why not?"

Gloria asks again.

"she's gonna see me differently, I don't know I just have this feeling in my gut that she's not gonna be ok with it"

Maritza continues.

"why the fuck did I have to fall for my best friend?"

Maritza says letting out a sigh.

"do you regret it? hmm? you regret the way she makes you feel?"

Gloria asks getting closer to her.

"no I don't but."

"but nothing mami, you love her. It's not your fault it's not hers, we don't choose who we fall in love with our heart does. Your heart chose Flaca. She'll be okay with it"

"you promise?"

Maritza says now turning around with wet eyes looking at Gloria

"yes I promise, c'mere mami"

Gloria says as she pulls her into a small embrace

"c'mon let's go, Flaca must be scared shitless"

Gloria says letting out a low giggle.

"I feel her"

Maritza says running her fingers through her hair and walking out of the bathroom towards their cube.

She goes in the cube, looks around her mouth open eyes wide staring at their bunks.

"what the fuck"
