Faith and I have been friends for six years. Faith is tall with light brown hair that stops just above her small breasts. She always has a pair of black glasses perched on the end of her nose. I have always found Faith to be quite attractive. I have never told Faith how I feel towards her though. Faith was shocked when I told her I was a lesbian and had a girlfriend, Becky. I must admit, I was surprised at how quickly Faith accepted everything. I was so relieved!
“Lisa! What are you doing here?”
“I’m sorry to just show up like this without calling,” I quickly said as I stepped inside. “I hope I’m not interrupting anything?”
“No, I was just watching TV,” Faith said as she closed the door.
“What’s the matter?”
“Let’s go upstairs.”
I followed Faith upstairs to her bedroom.
“You don’t look so good, so what’s up?”
I started crying. Faith told me to sit on the bed. She sat down next to me and put her arm around me. I rested my head on her shoulder.
“Becky broke up with me. I got up this morning and there was a message on the machine. She said we weren’t right for each other and she was seeing someone else.”
Faith was silent for a few moments and then she whispered, “What a bitch.”
I cried for a few more minutes, while Faith continued holding me.
“No she isn’t,” I suddenly said.
“What?”
“Becky isn’t a bitch. She’s smart, beautiful, and sweet. Well usually.”
“Well she’s also a fool,” Faith said.
I stared questioningly into her eyes.
“For dumping you. There is no way she’ll find someone nicer or more loving than you.”
“You really think so,” I asked with hopeful eyes.
“No doubt about it,” Faith said smiling.
I turned and gave Faith a big hug.
“Thanks.”
