| The next day Michaela, Liz, and Rebecca decided to go out and do some Christmas shopping together. They decided to take advantage of the shopping trip and have a girl�s day out. Rebecca was the only other sister that both Michaela and Liz could talk to about things. They had been shopping all morning and decided to take a break and have lunch. They were waiting for their food to arrive when both Liz and Rebecca noticed Michaela wasn�t paying any attention to their conversation. Rebecca looked over at Liz who smiled and mouthed �Sully�. �Michaela, are you alright?� Rebecca asked. �Hmm?� �Are you alright?� �Oh yes, of course. Why do you ask?� �Your cheeks are red. Are you coming down with something?� �No, it�s probably just because of the cool wind.� Liz knew Michaela better than that. She let out a soft chuckle, �You know what I think? I think Michaela was thinking about that handsome man from last night.� �He was rather handsome.� Rebecca added. �Very nice eyes too.� They both turned to look at Michaela whose cheeks were now redder. �What do you think Michaela?� �He�s nice.� �Just nice?� Liz asked. �You don�t think he�s handsome?� Michaela was now a deep shade of red, and she couldn�t look either one of her sisters eye to eye. �Come on Michaela, you can be honest with us.� Michaela took a breath looked and looked up at her sisters. �Alright, yes he is a very handsome man with the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.� Rebecca and Liz giggled. This was the first man Michaela had been attracted to. �I think he was rather fond of you as well.� Rebecca said. �Like I told Liz, you are imagining things.� �I don�t think so; I saw the way he was looking at you.� Michaela felt her cheeks get warmer. �You are both imagining things. Why on earth would he be attracted to me? Not only that, but do you know what the odds are that I�ll ever see him again?� �Michaela, if the two are you are destined to be together, you�ll see him again.� �You really think so?� �Yes, I do.� Their food arrived and they continued to have their talk. The entire time Michaela kept picturing dancing with Sully at the ball. Back Next |
