Anntonia would admit that when Max left, she also left a very awkward atmosphere between her and Michelle. She thought that maybe this isn't the right time to go down on memory lane and spend their last memories together.
"Michelle, you know, let's just-"
"Did I ever get you a stuff toy?" Michelle suddenly asked.
"huh?" she asked back.
"Did I?" Michelle asked again.
"I-I forced you, when we were in fifth grade" Anntonia answered.
"Here" Michelle said passing her a pink teddy bear, Reveland mascot.
"Uh... Thanks, I guess" Anntonia said.
"How about flowers?" Michelle asked.
"You know that's not my thing, Michelle"
"Oh, right" Michelle said and continued walking while Anntonia struggles with the basket that she's carrying plus the big ass pink teddy bear.
"Oh, how about couple shirts? Do you want couple shirts? Let's get couple shirts" Michelle said while going through the hangered shirts in the corner of the store.
"Michelle" Anntonia called.
"What color do you like?" Michelle asked.
"Michelle" Anntonia called again.
"I think black suits us better" Michelle said.
"Or maybe Pink" Michelle added.
"Michelle!"
Michelle stopped and looked at Anntonia. She's biting her lips like she was waiting for the girl to scold her.
"For the second time, are you okay?" Anntonia asked.
"Why wouldn't I be?" Michelle asked.
"That doesn't answer my question, Michelle" Anntonia said seriously.
"I'm okay" Michelle said.
"No, you're not" Anntonia said.
"Yes, I am" Michelle breathed her answer right through her nose.
"Oh really..." Anntonia said while she puts the basket and the teddy bear on the floor, she crossed her arms in front of her chest, raised a brow and tapped her foot.
"Ughhh... fine. I'm not" Michelle gave up.
"Care to tell me why?" Anntonia pushed.
"I can't" Michelle said.
"We have all the time in the world" Anntonia said and sat on the floor in the middle of the store not caring about the other customers.
Michelle sighed. This girl is going to be the death of her.
"It's just that I-I don't know if I'm doing this right" Michelle said.
"Doing what right?" Anntonia asked.
"This!" Michelle said.
"What?!" Anntonia said getting frustrated at Michelle.
"This whole date thing..." Michelle said in a whisper.
"This is your idea in the first place. And how come you don't know how it's done? You've gone to a lot of dates you are even proposing soon. Are you kidding me?" Anntonia said in disbelief.
