Amy: I'm getting my bags and I’ll be out.
Abby: K I’ll be here.
I am so happy I will get to hang out with Amy and maybe she can shed some light on this whole Marco heartache thing.
I watch the comings and goings of the people and they look so happy. Maybe they are going on an adventure I think. I’m suddenly shaken from my people watching when a beautiful dark-haired man walks directly in front of my car. He glances at me with his phone at his right ear and then stops as he stares intently at me.
OH MY GOD! I blush. He must be a businessman. No, definitely not! He has to be a GQ model. His grey suit is nicely fitted and hugs his amazingly large muscular body. I might possibly be sweating from the heat that is invading my body.
We stare at each other for an awkward few moments. I hear my name and look to my left to see Amy jumping up and down, waving her hands in the air to get my attention. The man turns his head in the direction that has caught my eye, turns back to me, smiles, and then he walks away with a confident swagger.
I step out of the car and help Amy with her bags. I desperately want him to come back, but what would I do with a man like that? I did like the electricity I felt. It has been too long since I had that feeling. The sad lonely Abby is getting too comfortable in this skin.
“Oh my God, I am so happy to see you doll!“ she hums.
“Me too,“ I say as I hug her.
“Did you see me? You looked very preoccupied with that hunk of man I saw in front of your car. He seems familiar, but I didn’t get a great look at his face.“ She winks as she opens the visor to fix her dark bob.
Oh great now I will never live this down. I blush. I just make something up. “Yeah, I think he was lost.“
“Oh, well that sucks, maybe we can give him a ride.“
I know exactly what kind of a ride she’s talking about and I’m not going to let on that I heard what she said.
“Well doll I am so ready to get this party started.“ She’s always ready for that.
I smile. “Is anyone planning on going with us tonight?“
“Well.“ She looks at me and smiles. “I’m kind of hoping you are cool with Dominic and his friend Evan going with us.“
“Amy, I really hope you are not trying to set me up with this Evan person!“ I say loudly.
“Hey he’s hot and.... he’s lonely so let’s just hang out with him. No expectations I promise!“ She smiles in her very sweet I-am-a-good-girl-I-swear look.
“Ok.“ I sigh.
“Trust me, Abby, you will have a good time. I just want you to start over. I mean what kind of guy just doesn’t call after having a relationship with someone for two years? We will have fun tonight I promise, and no worries. Ok?“ She smiles in her all white perfection.
“Yeah,“ I whisper because I don’t care if I have fun.
“O. M. G!“ Amy’s voice raises a few octaves.
“What?“ She sounds just like the valley girls on TV I giggle to myself.
Amy and I were raised in Beverly Hills. My parents moved to Denver to run a new hospital. The fact that they are the most successful surgeons in LA is probably the reason they were offered the positions in the first place.
“Nothing, Dominic just sent me a naked pic. Here look at it,“ she says, seriously shoving it in my face.
“No! Are you kidding me? I am not looking at your man’s naked selfie.“ I laugh as I slap her hand away.
I smile to myself as I watch the road. I am grateful to have my crazy, obnoxious yet beautiful friend here.
