Telling Her Anyway

"You, what? Faith is my oldest and bestest friend. No one can say anything against that! So me hugging her arm is only natural." Jen's smile was very pretty, but the look in her eyes was not inviting.

"I am also Faith's best friend, so I can hug her arm as well!" Adel shot back while staring daggers at Jen. But I wonder…. Do these two not realize that they have yet to ask me my opinion on this? I do feel that even if I did, I would just be yelled at. 

Jen smiled, seemingly ignoring Adel's retort, and looked at me as she said: "We should probably continue our conversation from earlier. I still have a lot to tell you." 

I knew this would probably cause a scene, but I had many things to ask Jen about as well. "Mm… Adel, I got something I need to speak with Jen about."
