"Who is the hot girl"? asked  Carmen  

"Porter" was my only response.  

"Damn that girl and you turned all around! said Carmen  

 "Gee thanks" Isa said in a dead pan tone  

"No Isa you know what I mean, I thought people were being over dramatic when they said that love can break a person but seeing how you were after you broke up with her I know it’s possible" said Carmen  

How is Shane"? asked Isa 

"Were good but this was a tough week for with Sherri’s anniversary.

"Oh that hurt Carmen laughed true though" 

  "Yea its not like you were the deepest   person in the pool" said Isa 

  "I was a shallow person it used to be all about looks with me. I need to have the hottest girl on my arm.  I met Shane she was different  I mean she is hot but she didn’t need other people to know it or say it. Then as I got to know her I saw how great she was, I  was nervous  on our first date  you  know say something dumb or  we would get there and it wouldn’t be accessible". said Carmen   

 I met Bette when I was  twenty-one  part of my initially attraction was she was a bad ass.  She is so easy to love once if you look beyond I am enforcer don’t mess with me. I told  her about wanting a lab as a kid , daddy would never let me have one. I had gotten my first rejection letter, I was really upset, She went out and got me Roxy , Even though she is in the business  she doesn’t take pleasure in killing people I think that it makes he value  life more because she knows how fleeting it is" said Isa  

 "You still love her I can tell in  your tone, the look in your  eyes. said Carmen   

"I know  Carmen even after all this time, the way thing ended I still love her" She took a sip of her drink.
