What happened to you, Grace? Gloria asked her friend. We had planned by 7 am today but you are only meeting up now?
I am sorry Gloria, I slept in late that is why I woke up late as well.
That is so unlike you, why did you sleep late?
It is a long story Gloria, Grace responded
How long could it be because I need an explanation for this action?
Okay! Okay, Gloria stop nagging already.
I went on a date. With? Gloria asked.
Richard. Your childhood friend? She added.
Yes dear, the Richard you met and know.
Okay? So what has that got to do with you sleeping late and waking up late?.
The thing is...., you know what? just forget about it.
No, I won't forget, speak up. What happened? Did he do something? What exactly is going on here?.
Gloria! Richard confessed his feelings for me.
Wait what? How come? Has he been crushing on you? Or it just occurred suddenly?.
My dear, he said he has been feeling that way for some years now but he couldn't tell me cause he wasn't sure yet.
And now he decided to tell me about it claiming he is now certain about his feelings.
So what did you say to him? Do you feel the same way?
That's the problem here Gloria, I said nothing cause I didn't know what to say.
Come on girl! Why that? Don't you like Richard?
It's not like that Gloria. You know I never thought of Richard other than a friend but now he is giving me reasons to see him more than that. I like him no doubt about that but....
But nothing Grace, Gloria cut in. You like him and that is final, besides, you two know each other for a while now so it wouldn't be a bad thing if the friendship extended into loveship or something.
Miss counselor! Shall we get over this already? I don't wanna start thinking about the incident again.
Oh, you better do cause I am in support of this.
Richard seems like a cool guy to me, and you two would make a perfect couple lol.
Gloria teased her friend, although she was serious in a way about what she just said.
Alright then, shall we get to what we had for today?
Oh sure! We should. But remember to give Richard a positive response.
They both bid each other goodbye and part ways after their discussion and meet up.
What do you think will be Grace's response to Richard?
Will she give in to her friend's advice about accepting Richard?
Let's find out in the next episode.
