(Domme) Of A Kind
after, she looked back at me, “Oh,
Miranda don’t you tell me…” I nodded yes to her. I think she
figured it out by now. The night when we talked about her audition,
I casually told her that I had a short conversation with Walter
Wright himself. She didn’t ask too much about him because her focus
at that time was her audition, so I thought it wasn’t that big deal
to her. She covered her mouth with her hand, “So you’re really
serious about that?” she confirmed. I nodded yes again. And there
her smile flooded her face. I don’t know if she’s surprised or
what? “You are so bad!” she said.
    “Elle, listen to me. Walter is a nice person.
He is not what you are thinking about him,” This is what I am
talking about, she might think that I’m still being serious with
what I told her before. In sophomore year, I said to her that, if I
ever had a boyfriend while I’m still at school, I won’t be that
serious because studies come first, always. I didn’t actually mean
it but I guess it’s the other way around for her. And ever since I
started college, I never had any boyfriend, so he would be the
first one just in case. “I hope you do not get me wrong,”
    “I know,” Then she silenced herself, “I just
want you to be happy,” she added. I did the same and I looked at
her and I saw her sincerity in her eyes. Now that’s my friend
there. That’s Elizabeth Hayes. But a moment after that, she grabbed
her attention back, “But you are really bad! You didn’t tell
me!”
    I laughed a little, “I was about to, is just
that I’m still waiting for the right time,” I excused.
    “But you think I won’t figure it out?”
    “No. I think you can figure it out!” Then we
just both laughed at each other. But after that she gave me a warm
big bear hug and said she’s really happy for me. But she confessed
that she didn’t eat too much last night because she was kind of
worried about me too. She added there that she waited for me at The
Big Dogs after school but I didn’t show up. I should have left her
at least a message she added. Speaking of The Big Dogs, I remember
that Walter told me that he sent some replacements for me to take
over the job at no extra payment at the owner’s sake, so less work
either there. Anyway, she thanked me for preparing her the best
breakfast so far this year. She said she’s really starving she
could eat all the food I cooked this morning. And I said no
problem. If she wants more I can cook more.
    I also mentioned to her the audition thing
Walter said to me, that if ever she won’t make it, there’s another
opportunity that is waiting for her, so she needs not to worry
about the result she’ll be receiving anytime this week. She was so
happy when she heard that and she said she will be glad to meet my
future boyfriend as soon as possible. But I told her, she mustn’t
stress out the phrase ‘future boyfriend’ to me because I don’t want
to think it that way. That we are friends and it would be better if
we’ll stay like that first. But she opposed me there. She followed
that we’ve already met for three times now and the last one was
‘the grand’ so there’s no way for her to think that we are not
going to that kind of path anytime soon. She added there that I’m
the woman, so I should be the one to decide if we’ll continue it or
not. There she got me agreed with her at last. She’s right, I will
be the one who’ll give him ‘the yes’ so I shouldn’t be worried
about him not becoming my real boyfriend in the future. But is that
even possible? I mean, should I trust what she has told me? Should
that be my basis not to give up and just to keep on going?
    ***
    I told Elizabeth not to worry about me going to
school because somebody else will drive me there so she doesn’t
need to save the seat for me at Tom’s car. She even teased me that
I might get used to a comfortable car not riding on them anymore.
This time, it was the same crew who picked me up
