"Ooohhh, nobody's home." cooed Suzy as she, Angela and Hillman pulled up to the girls' house, "do you think Chrissy went with her parents or with Everett?" She asked.
"I don't know," Angela followed. "But did you see those flowers? I hope she left with him, and not them, she was saying as they got out of the car and locked the doors behind them.
"Angela!" Suzy scolded.
"Not apologizing." She said. "It's grue and you know it. We all think it's time for them to admit things to each other, unlike some people we know." She jeered at Hillman. "Like you and Hillman are any better!" She was near laughter now.
"Hey!" Hillman said, pretending to be shocked. "I resemble that remark," he said, as he took Angela's hand in his and kissed her knuckles.
Angela blushed. They all made their way inside and she noticed the smell right away, then she saw them. "Wow! Look at all those flowers."
She and Suzy stood in the doorway to the kitchen and stared at the flowers in the water pitcher for a minute or two.
Hillman blew out a long whistle. "She could open her own store with these."
"I'll say." Suzy said as Angela just stared, holding Hillman's hand.
"Oh," she said as she snapped out of the flowers trance, "Who wants a smoothie?" She asked, as she broke the barrier of fragrance on her way to the fridge to grab the milk, fruit and yogurt from the refrigerator.
"I'm going to bed," Suzy acknowledged, "I'm tired,"
she said as she headed down the hallway to her bedroom. “Oh, and
Angela,” she said before she abruptly turned and waggled her
eyebrows, "keep the lights on."
