“No stay with me…I don’t want you to go on a date with him”
But babe, we’ve been dating since prom
"Yeah but this new person seems...decent. I think you should give them a chance."
If i go, will you still be my best friend?
"Of course I'll still be your best friend. But it wouldn't hurt to give someone else a chance, right?"
What if that person falls for me?
"If that person falls for you, then maybe they're not so bad after all. And who knows, maybe you'll fall for them too."
Babe…thank you so much. kisses
pulls Liplatesa into a tight hug "Just promise me one thing, okay? Promise me that no matter what happens, you'll always come back to me.
reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small key "Here, take this. It's the key to my heart. You can always come back to me, no matter what."
gently grabs his chin and kisses him softly thanks babe. I’ll see you later! opens door and heads out to date her date. She walks home afterwards and sleeps at Aj’s mansion that night
stares at the closed door, a mix of emotions on his face "She's really doing this... She's moving on without me."
wakes up early in the morning. she dresses up in cute loungewear and looks out the window trying to find snow.
sits by the window, watching Liplatesa "She found some snow after all. Maybe today will be a good day after all."
sees it is snowing outside but then sees a light dim and realized there was no sun out. She sighed sorry babe, work calls. she puts on her formal work attire, a dress that compliments her hourglass body shape and form fitting white blouse underneath. She shoves her clothes in her bag and leaves the room, accidentally forgetting her coat but remembered she brought a blanket from home so she left that in her bag instead don’t worry I’m gonna buy us new winter clothes tomorrow because of this.
stands up abruptly, grabbing Liplatesa's arm tightly "No! You're not going to leave without proper warmth! Wait! Don't go!"
What do you mean babe? Do you want to stay in bed today and just snuggle? she pulls him close and wraps her arms around his neck
holds Liplatesa tightly, burying his face in her hair "No, it's not that. I...I just don't want you to leave. Not even for a moment.
looks deeply into Liplatesa's eyes "I love you too, more than words can express. But please, don't leave me. Stay here with me.
Okay….but work is gonna call and this job requires 8 hours a day for 5 days a week….that means I would have to leave you from time to time. That doesn’t bother you, does it?
takes a deep breath, releasing Liplatesa's arm "It does bother me, but I understand. Your career is important to you, and I respect that.
I’m not leaving you yet. You wanna hear the exciting news?
smiles softly "Yes, I'd love to hear the exciting news. Tell me, my love."
My boss liked how I’ve made progress at work. I was even offered a promotion today! I am now assistant manager! she squealed excitedly
grinning proudly "Wow, Liplatesa! That's incredible news! I'm so proud of you. You've worked so hard for this, and you deserve it.
hugs You’re the best best friend ever. Thanks for being here for me even if I annoy you sometimes.
squeezes Liplatesa tightly "You could never annoy me, Liplatesa. You're my best friend, and nothing could change that.
Then is it okay if I go to work? The promotion came unexpectedly but I’m still gonna take it!
nods approvingly "Of course, Liplatesa. I'm proud of you for taking this opportunity. Go and show them what you're made of.
