The Best Friend
“What happened with that guy? The one you met in the bar. You were all excited about him but you’re not talking. Spill it!â€Â
Silence.
“Nadia, talk to me!†she pleaded. “I’m your best friend. We don’t have secrets.â€Â
Nadia’s voice was strained. “Steph, I… I can’t talk about it yet. Please. Don’t harass me?â€Â
“Harass? Whaat? I’m harassing you?†The voice on the telephone was hurt. “I thought you trusted me. I thought we were friends. What’s the deal?â€Â
“We are friends. It’s just… I’m not ready. I need to think.â€Â
“You already think too much. That’s your problem.â€Â
