As i signed off, my phone rang. It was Max
“Hello”
“Hey Joanna”
“Hey”
” Don’t be mad at Allie.”
“I heard you the first time.”
“Stop blaming her.”
“You like her.”
“So?”
“Shes my best friend.”
“You like me and I’m your best friend.” I hung up. Was it that simple? Did Max really just like Allie and not me. was Allie really that cold hearted? Was Max, who was always so nice to me, suddenly the devil? Well, lets see.
I called Max back.
“Sorry.” I said “I want to help.”
“With what?”
“You like Allie, so you will get Allie.”
“Ok fine.”
“Bye” He had already hung up. Now, I was planning to tell Max all the things Allie loves. Except, I’ll tell him what she hates. Only a desperate girl would fall for a guy like that. I’ll just have to make sure Max won’t catch her and theresd wont be a fuzzy rug to land on.
What did Allie have that I didn’t? Allie was too loud, too gossipy, still had some of her baby fat, 10 years later. I was outgoing but not annoying, listens, doesn’t tell gossip and baby fat free.
