Chapter Twenty Two

"....yes, we kissed and he seemed to fall off the face of the earth," Kate was listening sympathetically and then "awwnn" we turned like clockwork to glare at Zoe who was smiling

wistfully, eyes glued to the screen of her phone, seemingly oblivious.

Kate snatched the phone from her and she seemed to crash back to reality looking like a child caught with their hands down the cookie jar. "Uhh boooooo?" She scrunched her up her face almost comically.

To her credit, she was the one who suggested a girl's day out, with lots of Ben & Jerry's ice cream and lots more of junkie that was sure to give us heartburn rather than comfort, although I knew it was more for my benefit than theirs. Although according to Zoe, it was mostly an excuse to freely consume junk as much she could get away with as she was going back on her strict diet next week considering she had an upcoming dance and little modelling gig the coming month.
