So yeah, I figured she did not need to know Sarah was a real person.
“Also I fantasize only you.” I added whispering as I un-tucked that lip from between those teeth with my thumb.
They shouldn’t be her teeth pulling on that lip...
Sani trembled with my touch and the intensity of my unwavering gaze.
Hugging herself, she stood up, but I caught her wrist and requested longingly,
“Please sit with me.”
Giving me a crooked little smile, she allowed me to pull her back down and thus landed close beside me, in my arm.
Playing with her fingers, I told her gently,
“About earlier...I really respect and admire how you don't wanna give up on that old friend of yours even if, currently from her side, it’s just a namely friendship. But I hope you know you have a friend with whom you can have a stronger bond than all the years combined with Rose.”
Sani looked at me thoroughly confused and bunched her eyebrows as if thinking hard.
I threw my hands in the air, annoyed now,
“Me, of course!”
“Oh.”
“Yes, oh. Thanks for the hurtful reaction Miss!” I grumbled.
Sani pinched my cheeks cooing, “Aww...”
I leaned my lips on her wrist and her hand stilled. I kissed it making her eyes sparkle, as if a current went through her.
Chuckling slightly, I went on,
“We were friends before we entered into this relationship, right?”
She nodded.
With my heart in my throat, I spoke further, tentatively looking deep in her eyes, “We are friends...Of the best kind, remember?”
I waited patiently for any sign as Sani became silent and thoughtful. Then she smiled to herself shaking her head as if coming out of trance.
“What happened?” I asked unable to hide my anticipation.
“Nothing.” Sani just laughed a little.
“Then why did you smile like that? As if in reminiscent.” I asked earnestly.
Sani nodded confiding in me,
“Yeah, exactly! I just felt like I have heard that before, 'friend of the best kind' line.”
“When?” I waited anxiously.
Sani just shrugged her shoulders,
“Let it be. I just sounded so cute saying that.” She ruffled my hair giggling.
“But when had you heard it?!” I pushed and realized my blunder immediately as Sani became confused and stared at me for being wierd.
