Lien quickly pulled out her green cell phone and entered the number with shaking fingers. She entered Mei's name into the phone and placed a heart emoji next to it. Why was she so excited, It was almost as if it was love at first sight. She shook her head. She was acting like a love-struck middle school girl. It had been years since she last felt like this.
As soon as she entered the number into her phone she texted Mei about meeting up again. Lien knew this adorable café near to where she lived. Yes, that was perfect! Lien suddenly felt proud as she hit the send button. She put her phone back in her pocket and waited. About 2 minutes later she checked it again, seeing if Mei texted back. She repeated this action a couple of times before finally receiving a message. Her heart hammered against her chest as she unlocked her phone and opened up her messages. Mei had texted back. Lien grinned and started to read the text.
Text from Mei 3 12:48 am:
That sounds fantastic! ( ・ω・)つ. How about around 3 pm tomorrow? I have the day free so maybe afterwards we can do some shopping!(=^-ω-^=)
Mei xx
Lien loved the emojis Mei placed after every sentence. It showed how sweet and innocent Mei actually was. The Asian quickly texted back saying that she couldn't wait. She shoved the phone back into her pocket as she noticed the taxi stopping at Lien's flat. She looked to her left and saw that Elizabeth had fallen asleep and she was leaning on her shoulder. Her breath thick with alcohol, making Lien recoil slightly. Lien felt guilty for having to wake her up, but Lien wasn't exactly the strongest so there was no way she could pick up Elizabeth.
Elizabeth rubbed her eyes and yawed. "Are we here yet?" She whispered. Lien nodded and giggled. She felt like their mother. She unbuckled Gilbert's seatbelt and he opened his door, stumbling out. Well, that was one way to do it. Elizabeth followed, almost tripping over Gilbert who was on the floor.
Lien quickly paid the taxi driver and go out. She helped Gilbert up and put his arm on her shoulder so she could help stabilise him. Elizabeth opened the front door which led to the entrance of the flat. Lien thanked her. The Hungarian then skipped over to the elevator and pressed the up button, causing the doors to open. She yelped at the sudden surprise.
"Elizabeth, please quieten down, people are sleeping" She said, causing Elizabeth to pout and mumble an apology. Lien literally ragged Gilbert into the lift making sure his legs didn't catch any clothing on the doors. Elizabeth pressed the 4th floor button which led to Lien's flat.
The elevator made a ding noise when the doors opened. Elizabeth helped drag Gilbert out of the lift. Each girl had a leg each. Gilbert wined as he started to get carpet burns on the back of his neck. Elizabeth pulled at his leg to stop him from making noises, which worked.
Once they were in Lien's flat, gilbert fell asleep on the sofa and Lien let Elizabeth sleep in the spare bedroom as long as she promised not to throw up in the bedroom, but in the bathroom.
After cleaning up a little, she decided to go to sleep as well. Lien climbed into bed and fell asleep smiling, thinking about the beautiful Asian girl with long, soft, brown hair and a cheeky sweet smile.
She believed it was love at first sight.
