Dear Diary

Pinky Floras

It has been a busy day for Pinky and Aliyah, especially because tomorrow will be the opening ceremony of Pinky’s flower shop. They just came back from the market, they were tired and exhausted.

“I am scared, do you think the shop will work?” Pinky asked Aliyah.

“Hey, don’t be a coward. It will definitely work and if it doesn’t work I know you will definitely make it work. I have never seen you give up on anything, I know you won't start now. Will you?” Aliyah asked.

“No, not now, not ever” Pinky said.

“So, be calm and positive that things will surely workout. Stay confident and determined. When you win, be grateful, and when you lose; learn” Aliyah encouraged her.

Pinky stared at her in the same manner a child would stare at a television showing his favorite cartoon show, she did not even blink, she didn’t want to.

“What? Do I have two noses?” Aliyah too stared at Pinky same way she was staring at her.

“I am trying to see through your flesh, I want to see the demon that possessed you”

“Did you see it?” Aliyah widened her eyes as she asked.

“Beep, beep” Aliyah’s phone rang. It was a message from an unknown number

✉“Hello you there, How was your day?”

✉“Hectic and tiresome. But wait, who are you?” She texted back.

✉“Someone you are looking for” Another text came in.

Pinky Snatched the phone from Aliya’s hand, she read the messages and decided to reply. Dough Aliyah tried to reclaim her phone, it was too late.

✉“Are you by any chance one of my secret admirers?” Pinky replied.

Hafiz laughed on receiving Pinky’s reply except that to him, Aliyah was the one who sent the text.

“She really doesn’t have my phone number” he said to himself. Okay then, let’s play hide and seek.

✉“You guessed right. I have been looking for a chance to meet you” He sent.

✉“Perfect, how about tomorrow?”

Guess who was still on the keyboard.

✉“Okay, where and when?” He asked.

“So, she wants me to attend the opening of the shop” He said after reading the address she sent. He then replied.

✉“I will be there. Thank you for the honor, can’t wait to see you”

“The honor is all mine. I can’t wait to meet you too. Take care of yourself” She sent her last message.

Hafiz had only one thought after the brief sms chat “Interesting”. Of course he hadno idea Pinky was behind the keyboard.

Meanwhile Pinky was forcefully buried under a pillow at the time.

“I can’t breathe” Pinky said from under the pillow.

“I don’t care, at least I will rid the world of a problem bigger than global warming.”

“Who will take you out on ice cream dates when i am gone?”

“I will take myself out…” Aliyah said before lifting the pillow off  Pinky’s face.

Pinky took a deep breath, she then started laughing at Aliyah’s state.
