"Beatrice Cornelia Castell?" She made a face. Ew. Her name was already ancient as it was. No need to add defective manure to the soil. "Yeah.......no, thanks." She was good with Evangeline.
And Evangeline wanted to know what it was that was making her best girlfriend act like the way she was. "The thing is?"
Gah. Talk about taking time.
"Say it, Erin. Say. It."
Feeling a little guilty about the ice cream, she decided to put some spoonfuls in her friend's mouth. She wasn't usually that childish. Things just had been really rough lately.
It seemed like, things had been out of her control recently. And she didn't like that. She was of age now, and that had been used as a weapon to control her life...by her parents.
Hearing Beezus' irritation to hear the thing...Erin finally spilled.
"I'm engage..." she gave in a tiny smile raising both of her eyes. This was supposed to be a happy message, right?
