Chapter 46
Molly – Kayla
I practically run over to Molly when I see her approaching baggage claim.
She looks the same as always—shoulder-length, brown, and curly hair, and she’s wearing her pronounced glasses. She’s also wearing an intentionally ripped sweatshirt, yoga paints, and high-top Chuck Taylor’s.
“Welcome to Greece!” I say after releasing her. Then, I gesture behind me. “This is Jack.”
Her eyes go wide. “Jack? THE Jack?”
He beams. “I certainly hope so. It’s nice to finally meet you.” He shakes her hand.
But then Callie steps forward. “Hey I’m Callie.”
“Molly. Oh, my gosh. I love your Gucci slides!”
Callie smiles. “They’re knock offs.”
Molly’s mouth widens. “You’re kidding me. They look like Angelina GG Platforms to me.”
Callie’s lips roll in on themselves. “Nope. One hundred percent fake.”
“Oh my gosh! That’s crazy!”
Just as I thought, it seemed as though they were becoming quick friends.
“Jeez. They’re like magnets,” Jack comments as we walk out and behind them.
“Right?”
After we get into the car, Callie waits approximately five seconds before blurting out, “Do you want to go out with us tonight?”
Molly nods enthusiastically. “Of course!”
Callie claps in excitement. “You’re going to have to help me dress Kayla.”
My arms cover my chest. “Hey!”
Molly’s focus remains on Callie, and she flicks her wrist in her direction. “Do not even worry about that. I’ve been dressing Kayla like she was my one life-size Barbie for as long as I can remember.”
“I’m sure you’ll look beautiful,” Jack chimes in.
“Thank you.” At least someone is on MY side.
