In Denial Ch. 9
"Hey Fox!" chanted Theresa happily.
"Oh, hey!" Fox noticed that Theresa was perkier than she normally is. He became sad when he thought that her "friend" was the one who was cause for this.
"Guess what?" asked Theresa.
Fox was not in the mood to play guessing games, but since it was for Theresa, he decided to please her. "I don't know. Let me see...you got another role in a movie?"
"I wish, but that's not it. Try again."
"Can I get a hint?" Fox gave the biggest and most adorable smile he could muster.
"It has to do with a person."
"Oh," said Fox, disappointed that the stranger has to be brought up into this conversation. "Does it have to do with the guy I saw you with earlier?"
Theresa was not aware of the sad tone of Fox's voice. "You saw us? Well I guess that ruined the surprised."
"Why didn't you tell me you had a boyfriend?"
Theresa started giggling hysterically. "My BOYFRIEND! That's just plain gross! That was my brother Miguel. He's came to visit me." Theresa began to wonder about the way Fox asked the question. He seemed depressed about the possibility of her having a boyfriend. As quickly as that thought entered her mind, she pushed it out. Fox is only my friend.
Feeling relieved, Fox asked, "So how long is he staying?"
"Only for the weekend," explained Theresa. "Well look whose here."
Fox turned around to see Miguel walking towards them. Theresa gave Miguel a hug.
"Hey there sis. Hey Fox." Miguel gave Fox a handshake. "So what are we going to do this weekend?"
"Well I'll let the two of you catch up." Fox began to walk towards the door, wanting to give the siblings some time to hang out.
"Actually Fox, I was hoping you will join us," said Miguel with a smile on his face.
"You don't have to hang out with us if you don't want to. I'm sure you already have plans," said Theresa.
"Well, actually I would love to hang out with the two of you." Fox decided it would be great to spend as much time with Theresa as he can. After all, he thought to himself, the director would be pleased to know that he is putting in the effort to get to know Theresa.
"Great!" said Miguel. "Theresa, do you have his number?"
"No."
"It's 555-9231." Fox then pulled out his cell phone so he can enter in Theresa's number.
"Theresa's number is 555-8239."
"Miguel, I think I can give him my number without any help."
"Sorry," Miguel said with a shrug. "I just figured that since you didn't have one another's number, I'll help you out."
Fox watched the sister-brother relationship in amusement. He always wished he had siblings; it was pretty lonely growing up with any in a huge mansion.
"Well that settles it. We'll give you a call when we figure out what we want to do."
"That sounds great. I have to get to the set. We'll it's nice seeing you again Miguel. See you later Theresa."
"See ya," greeted Miguel. Theresa didn't say goodbye, she was too busy thinking about spending part of her weekend with her co-star.
"Hey Fox!" chanted Theresa happily.
