"Whoa, there! Are you OK?" Sami excitedly asked with a tone of concern in his voice. He had reached out to steady her.
"Do you need anything to drink or something? Should we go outside?It is hot in here. The air is stale as heck!" Sami continued, looking for an exit to the outdoors.
My, it WAS hot in here. And it was NOTbecause of stale air.
"Oh, Sami thank you." she sighed, relieved she had managed to avoid too much embarrassment. "I'm really fine, just a little overwhelmed like we talked about before."
But Sami knew. He had been observing her eyes and how they reacted as she was studying his best friend. They grew soft and glazed over. He also knew from experience when a woman was in love she had a tendency to gently bite her upper lip when she was admiring her love interest.
No doubt, Sami determined,she had a classic case of officially falling in love.
"You should tell him." Sami suggested with a slight smile.
"That obvious, huh?" She asked, a deep blush crossing her face.
Sami nodded, pushed himself away from the wall,and sauntered into the hallway.
