This and the next two chapters are the events of a day so they may be short or long…

DAY 1

She walked down the street hanging off his arm. She was whispering to him and he kissed her on the lips. They were out in public where they were be seen by everyone. As they enjoyed their stroll they stopped in the Eatery.

"You look beautiful," he said to her as they sat down to grab a bite.

"Thank you," she said smiling, "you are so sweet."

"Anything for you, love."

A waitress came over to take their order during an intense lip lock.

"May I take your order?" she asked. They continued kissing.

"May I take your order?" she repeated a little louder and they broke apart shyly.

She looked up at the waitress. "Serena?"

"Oh hi Lita," she smiled. "You remember Allan, right? Allan, this is my friend Lita."

"Can I get you guys something?" Lita said still in shock.

"You know," Serena said looking at Allan dreamily, "I'm not really hungry anymore.

Let's go for a walk Allan."

Lita's jaw dropped. There must be some mistake. She could have sworn it looked like

Serena and talked like Serena but there was no possible way that it was Serena. Serena not hungry was like being in an alternate universe. The voice seemed so right but the words coming out were not from the girl she knew.

"Lita," she heard interrupting her thoughts, "I'm leaving now."

"Oh, Okay then, bye," she said in a daze. Once she broke out of it moments later,

Lita made a mad dash for the phone. She dialed and waited for someone to pick up.

"MINA!"

"Jeez Leets, that is my ear. What is all the noise for?"

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you. Just get to the park right now."

"Why?"

"Just go and tell me what you see."

"All right." Mina grabbed her purse and shot out the door to the park. Whatever was at the park had better be good!

Ten minutes later, walking through the park, she heard giggling and smiled. 'Young lovers,' she thought to herself. She heard the giggling and stopped. She'd be darned if that giggling didn't sound familiar to her. 'Thank the God's for love,' she thought following the voice to a clearing. She was shocked to say the least at what she found.

"Serena!?"

"Mina," she said with shock, "what a surprise. Mina this is Allan, Allan this is

Mina."

"She's told me so much about you," Allan said looking into Serena's eyes lovingly.

"It's very nice to meet you."

"I'm sure," Mina said dryly. "Serena can I speak to you alone for a minute?"

"Alright," she said to her friend. She turned and kissed Allan on the lips briefly. "I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere."

"Never," he quipped.

The two girls walked about two feet away before Mina smacked Serena in her forehead with the palm of her had.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked her friend.

"Nothing," Serena answered, "and oww."

"Well can you then tell me what is going on?"

"I'm spending the day with Allan," she said looking over at him and blowing him a kiss. He blew one back. "Isn't he cute?"

"Cut it out Serena."

"Cut what out?"

"I know you're still mad at Darien but this is extreme, especially for you."

"He is just so cute?"

"Serena, focus."

"Yes, Mina," she said directing all of her attention to her friend.

"Remember Darien, your boyfriend. He would have lover boy there for breakfast, lunch and dinner if he saw him kiss you."

"Boyfriend?"

"You remember together forever deal."

"We broke up. Too bad for that little prophesy thing huh."

"Remember Rini, your daughter you and Darien's daughter."

"Well, she'll be happy, I'm not her mother."

"Serena!"

"You know, I think I could easily fall in love with him. He is just so cute and so sweet and so everything."

Mina's eyes widened as she watched Serena walk away from her and back towards Allan. He stood up and she leapt the distance from where she was to him and jumped into his arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist as they shared a kiss. She stood in that spot for a good fifteen minutes struck with shock.

The sun was now going down and they had left as she headed home. She dragged herself up to their third floor apartment and dropped her coat on the floor as she walked in. Without a thought, she grabbed Ken's hand and headed back out the door.

She walked out to the elevator and remained quit with his hand in hers.

"Honey, please say something, you're scaring me."

She just stood there with her eyes wide in shock, not saying a word. When the elevator doors opened she dragged him to apartment 4F and knocked. Andrew stood at the door shaking his head at Ken.

"Don't worry, it's like that in here too. She was so spacey we closed up early today."

"Do you have any idea what is going on," Ken asked him.

"Your guess is as good as mine," Andrew said, "although she has been mumbling something about hair."

"Well you're doing better than I am. She hasn't said a word..."

"She thinks she's falling in love!" Mina blurted out.

"Until now," Ken finished.

"Dear God, no," Lita said in horror. As they looked at each other in silence, Andrew ushered Ken in and closed the door behind him.

"What did she do to her hair?"

"Who?" the two boyfriends asked in unison.

"Serena, that's who," Lita said finally coming out of it. She walked into the kitchen for something for her and their guests to drink. She came back with four beers.

"Of course she's in love," Andrew said taking them from her and setting them on coasters on the table. "You mean those two finally made up."

"Yeah," Mina said sarcastically, "if you mean her and Allan Denison."

The two guys looked at each other in disbelief.

"Oh but as you've already heard, it gets worse."

"Is that possible?" Ken said.

"Very possible," Lita said still in disbelief. "Tell them Mina."

"I still can't believe it," Mina remarked.

"Oh just spit it out," Andrew said getting agitated with the drama.

"PDA."

"No."

"Yes." They all sat around in silence for a few minutes before the first person would speak.

"And the other thing?" Mina said shaking her head. "I can't believe she did it."

"I know right."

"What other thing?" Andrew asked.

"It doesn't look bad but why?"

"You've got me. This whole thing is bizarre."

"Dear God, what other thing?"Andrew practically screamed at them.

"You wouldn't believe us if we told you," Mina said shaking her head.
