Kyra

Invited my GF Kyra over on Sat nite.  We’d been dating for a few weeks.  We exchanged our niceties (sp) and then she shocks me.

Kyra’s body language changed suddenly.  I knew something was wrong.  I had all sorts of scripts in my mind – was she going to break up with me?

I couldn’t blame her – if I were a girl, I wouldn’t date me.  Especially with my schedule the way it is. 

Then she let it out.  The photo in her thought bubble let me know that her roommate Annabelle was the issue. 

“Sebastian, we had a MAJOR fight.”  Kyra was on the verge of tears. 

“It started innocently enough, when we were at the hair salon.  She was going on and on about how miserable her life is and how she can’t get a break with her writing and how publishers keep rejecting her manuscripts…

…and then she went on to criticize everything about me, especially my music.  Reminds me of my mother, sheesh, it's not as if I can't look after myself.... I mean, that's the whole reason WHY I left home in the first place.... plus she whines about just about everything, makes SUCH a drama out of it....I mean, it was cute to begin with, but now .... it's getting so OLD!  So, how about it? Can I move in ... or what?”

My feet were rooted to the ground and I wasn’t at all sure what to do, so I told Kyra I’d think about it.

In the meantime I did let her spend the night.
