Love and Deceit

Her lashes flickered many times in disbelief at Gioia's last words.

"You want my phone so you can dial his number? Damn girl you really are something. First you say you met someone, I create spicy assumptions, but you say I am wrong. Next, you say he is not your type of man and could possibly be married, I refuted you, you said you'll much rather stay friends.

Now you give me a major shocker by saying you want to dial his number with my phone. Does that mean that you were careful enough to request the stranger's number despite having no interest in something more? Okay, now I get to laugh." Concetta laughed hard until Gioia at first who got a little offended to the point of pouting her mouth, could not hold back from laughing as well.

Soon, their laughter began to die down.
