Angelina giggled. "I don't know how it is," she teased, "but a girl can dream. Or live vicariously through her girl friends."
Angelina popped a strawberry into her mouth. "Oh, she is," Angelina said. "She's been out a week or more maybe now. She's here somewhere," Angelina said, looking over the crowd. "I talked to her earlier, and she seems...happy." Angelina finished her drink before looking at Alicia. Why did everyone think she and Jeremiah had a 'thing'?
"We've been friends for more than two years now. We see each other every single day," she said with a smile. "We're just close. That's all. And he's a good man. Good men do nice things for women with no strings attached. Sometimes," she giggled. But definitely this time. Jeremiah had never once tried to be more than friends with her. "We're comfortable the way we are."
