Kimmie’s phone dinged and she couldn’t help glancing at it. It was a notification reminding her she needed to pick up her new dress from Bergdorf’s that was being tailored.
“Anna, are you still going to be in the city tomorrow night? It’s Jaylen S.’s sweet sixteen party. Her father rented out the entire 1 OAK club. You should come! I’d be happy to have someone else there I like.”
Anna frowned slightly. “I’m not big on the club scene, but maybe. Steven mentioned it last night.”
“I see you in lavender. Do you own a lavender dress?” Kimmie asked.
Anna laughed in response. “Who doesn’t? But I don’t have it here. I’m sure I can scrounge up something to wear. If I go.”
Kimmie stood up quickly. “Well, obvi Lolly doesn’t need a shoulder to cry on anymore, so I’m gonna go. Hey, I have to go pick up my dress at Bergdorf’s. I don’t suppose you’d have any interest in coming with me?”
Normally Anna would have jumped at the chance to go to her favorite store, but she knew this would only lead to more boy talk, which she was no longer in the mood for.
“Ooooh, I’d love to, but I can’t.”
It was then that Kimmie’s sister walked into the dining room, humming. She was wearing an oversized men’s terry cloth robe and her hair was wet from showering.
“Kimmie, what are you doing here?” Lolly asked.
“I stopped by to check on you, but I hear you’re doing more than fine,” Kimmie answered, quickly adding, “I mean, after your talk with Anna last night.”
“That’s exactly right,” Anna said casually.
Lolly was on another planet, barely listening to either of them. All she knew was that she was starving and had planned to ransack the fridge for something to eat with Steven in bed.
“Anna, is there any pie left?” Lolly asked in a dreamy voice. “Steven wants some.”
Anna nodded with a smile. This confirmed her suspicions. Lolly must have decided to forgive her brother for his transgressions, and in the process, also decided to give up her V-card. Anna thought it was probably a good thing, because now the date of their “screw-a-versary” was legit.
“Lolly, are you stoned?” Kimmie asked her sister. “You look totally high.”
Lolly smiled. “In a way … In a way…”
