Sierra laughed. Bette is just so cute. She felt as if she was melting on the inside from Bette’s cuteness.

“Well, I’m quite sure I’ve got more than five bucks and forty five cents with me. I wouldn’t mind paying for you if there’s a need to.” She offered politely.

“Nono, I can’t make you do that.” Bette shook her head. “Tell you what, we’ll hang out and if we happen to spend more than five dollars and forty five cents, I’ll pay you back whatever the amount I owe you another day?”

“Sounds like a good plan to me.”

“Great.”

Concurrently, back at Bette’s apartment…

“She’s been gone for nearly an hour. Don’t you think we should go out and look for her or something?” Alice frowned, tapping her foot impatiently.

“Yeah, maybe we should?” Dana turned to look at Shane.

Just as Shane was about to open her mouth to speak…

“Bzzzt… Bzzzt… Bzzzt…” Bette’s phone was vibrating against the table.

The three of them looked at the phone then each other.

Dana reached out for the phone to check who was calling.

“It’s Helena calling.” She showed the flashing screen to her friends, unsure what to do next.

“Answer it!” Alice exclaimed.

“No, you do it. I have no idea what to say.” Dana shoved the vibrating phone into Alice’s hands.

“What?” Alice looked at the phone in her hand. “You’re the one that picked up the phone, you do it.” She shoved the phone back to Dana’s hands.

The shoving of Bette’s phone went on between the two of them until…

“What the hell.” Shane said, looking up at the ceiling then got up from the couch. She grabbed the phone from the both of them and huffed, “Jesus. It’s just Helena. You guys are being so ridiculous.”

She pressed on the answer call button, “Hello?”

Meanwhile, at some small café near the beach…

“I swear, ice cream has got to be one of the best comfort food ever.” Bette said, before sticking the small spoon of ice cream into her mouth.
