Amelia's P.O.V.

Dinner with the twins was finished and I'm now laying on my bed. After they told me what happened to their mom, I couldn't bring myself to ask my question that I was dying to ask all night. Sometimes I don't understand myself. Why is it so hard to ask two people one simple question? I'm so pathetic. If I can't ask them a question now, how can I go out with them?

"AMELIA!" I jumped out of bed when Dona screamed my name. I ran down the hallway and saw her standing on the couch.

"What? What's wrong?" I was breathing heavily.

'I should really do more sports'

"Look there." She pointed with a shaking hand at the carpet on the floor. I approach her slowly while eying the carpet suspiciously.

"There's nothing Dona" I looked at her with an unimpressed expression.

"LOOK CAREFULLY"

"BITCH I ALREADY DID WHY ARE YOU ACTING LIKE THIS?" I was becoming irritated.

"DON'T YOU SEE IT? THERE'S A FUCKING SPIDER" I was beyond mad by now. She made me think that she was dying but no, she was just scared of a freaking spider that we can't even see with our own eyes. I stomped to the kitchen to get a sheet of paper towel. I went back to the living room and swiped the spider with the paper.

"Here, it's gone now."

"Oh, what would I do without you?" She got down and hugged me tightly.

"I don't know maybe instantly replace me with Kelly?" She broke the hug, looked into my eyes, and cupped my cheeks.

"Stop with that shit Amelia, nobody can ever replace you. You're the only one who understands me so well. It's time for you to get some confidence in yourself and learn to love yourself more do you understand me?" She was completely right, I lack a lot of confidence in myself and it's starting to get bigger as a problem. Since I was a kid I've always had this problem hunting me. I really need to work on this issue if I want to live a stress-less life.

"Amelia, did you understand what I just said?" I nodded and looked down. That's why Dona was the best friend in the world she always knew what to say and how to lecture me. Let's just say that I needed her in my life.

"Oh! I almost forgot, how was it with the twins?" And I wish you would've forgotten.

"Well, I invited them but they declined because of work." I avoided her eyes and looked at the ceiling.

"Amelia, you gotta stop avoiding my eyes when you lie because you're really getting worse at lying." I rolled my eyes.

"Ok well, I sort of couldn't get myself to ask them, today... no big deal." She looked at me and I could see her patience slowly leaving her body.

"Bitch you're getting on my nerves." She inhaled and exhaled deeply and turned back to me who was standing there uncomfortably.

"And what's your excuse this time?" I gulped and she probably heard.

"Long story short, we were having dinner and I asked what happened to their mom and they told me this whole story about how she got rapped then hit by a car. So yeah, I didn't have any courage to ask them because they were crying and it wasn't a good moment." She shut up when I said what happened this night. She sighed and said:

"I just don't know why it's taking you a decade just to ask a question." I was looking at the floor, It felt like I was getting a lesson from my parents.

"It all comes down to your lack of confidence." We stayed silent for a moment before she reached out in her pocket for her phone.

"Luckily you have me to help you." She winked at me before dialing a number. Who is she going to call? The person finally answered and I instantly knew who it was. How could I not see this coming?

See you next chapter!
