“I don’t know Kit.”

“Alice listen to me if you don’t get your ass up and go over there and talk to her you’re going to regret it hell you owe it to yourself.”

“Kit she’s here with someone, “Alice says disappointedly.

“Alice but you don’t know that.”

“The woman hands were around her waist Kit they sure look like a couple to me.”

“Well there’s only way to find out.”

Taking a deep breath Alice gets up from the table and walks towards Tasha. The rest of the gang watched her every move. As Alice gets closer her hands begin to sweat and her heart is racing. When she finally reaches Tasha her back is turned. Closing her eyes she takes a deep breath.

“Tasha, “she calls her name.

Tasha knowing that voice anywhere turns around to face Alice.

“Hey.”

“Hi, how are you?”

“I’m doing good and yourself?”

“Great uhmmm, you look really nice, “Alice shyly says. Tasha was wearing a burgundy blazer, with a black buttoned dress shirt, black dress pants, and burgundy and black hi-tek boots.

“Thank you.”

“How has Italy been treating you?”

“I like it the people are great and my job is amazing, “Tasha says with a slight smile on her face. “The longer I’m there the more it feels like I made the right decision.”

“Are you back for good or——–.”

“Oh no, no I’m just here on business for a few days.”

“That’s great.”

Alice had mixed emotions. In her mind she couldn’t be happier for Tasha she was doing well and enjoying success. However, her heart desperately wished that she was miserable and would come back to the states. She missed her. Not able to see or hear her voice was killing her inside. Everything she was scared to tell her months ago she wanted to tell her right then and there but didn’t as it all seemed pointless now. Although, they were speaking it was awkward. Not knowing what else to say she spoke on what had been bothering her since seeing Tasha and that woman together.

“Your girlfriend is really beautiful, “Alice says bashfully. As soon as the words left her mouth she began to tear up. Tasha immediately saw the pain in her eyes.
