order your lunch?” asks Jessy immensely excited.
“Hola Jessy, si that will be great. This will allow us to have some extra time talking y reviewing our game plan. I want un taco de carne asada y un taco de pollo with everything on it y a diet Coke,” said Paty. “I’m leaving now and will be there in five minutes, okay?”
“Okay” said Jessy ending the call to order their lunch.
I need to hurry. Maybe I will not run into Bella. I should take the stairs. No, it will take too long. Hmmm, we are talking about nineteen floors. She pushes the elevator button stepping into it with a sigh of relief. Good. Nobody sees me leave. She enters the parking garage without anyone seeing her. She strides toward her carro, a nice silver coupe Mercedes.
Great, I almost made it. Jose Enrique is waiting for me. I bet he knows that I will be meeting Jessy.
“No, you cannot go, absolutely not. You cannot come with me. Tu novia y yo will be reviewing the plan. I have to pep talk her. She is also extremely nervous, you know. You are a big catch even if it is just pretending. She does remember you,” states Paty with lots of frustration glaring at Jose Enrique.
“Okay, okay. I thought I will try it, I know you will not allow me to accompany you,” said Jose Enrique with a big sigh, crossing his brazos.
“I think I will walk to the sandwich shop down the street all by myself,” said Jose Enrique attempting to make her feel bad.
“Stop it. It will not work, so stop it! Adios!” said Paty as she enters her carro locking the doors. Just in case he tries to get in. She smiles waving sweetly to her hermano as she backs out of the parking space.
That was close. Dios mio, good thing he did not push hard , thought Paty driving down the road toward her favorite taco stand. It’s such a hermoso day to eat outdoors under the shade. I hope Jessy gets a real good table. Oh, good. There’s a parking space right next to Jessy’s carro.
She slides into the parking spot jumping out in a hurry as soon as she turns off the carro. She quickly grabs her purse as she exits the carro.
“Hola Jessy” Paty shouts in greeting as she runs toward Jessy giving her a hug.
“I’m starving. Jose Enrique tried to tag along, and I did not allow it,” laughs Paty, sitting down.
Jessy looks around all worried. “Are you sure he did not follow you?” Jessy asks, looking around. She heaves a sigh of relief when she didn’t see him turning back to talk to Paty.
“Paty, I’m so nervous. What if he doesn’t like me? I know he will like mi work, no problema. What if he doesn’t like me?” asks Jessy real anxious. “Do you like what I’m wearing? Is mi makeup okay? You don’t think I put too much makeup on? Is mi lipstick too dark? Oh, look at mi cute pumps. I think they are so sexy, don’t you?” she asks excited y wanting confirmation.
Paty is amazed looking at her best amiga ever with disbelief. She tries not to choke on her taco. I cannot believe her. She is extremely bella and doesn’t know it. Maybe it’s because Jose Enrique never noticed her before?
“Jessy, you need to eat y stop worrying. Everything will be okay. I told you before that Jose Enrique will love you. Okay? Stop it! Let me eat mi lunch in peace,” said Paty, laughing at her.
Jessy stares at her best amiga in astonishment. I cannot believe Paty is so calm. Grabbing her taco very irritated thinking, yeah, she’s calm because it’s not her that is sticking her cabeza out, Geez.
Paty observes Jessy’s emotions y refrains from laughing. Jose Enrique y Jessy are going to drive me crazy. I can just image if they do get married. What a pain they will be when they get mad at each other. Oh dios mio, I didn’t think of this before matching them up. She looks Jessy over deciding that she accomplished to look professional y real sexy. Everything will be okay .
“Jessy, did you bring your best interior design presentation for us to review? I hope you included some
