"Don't bother writing anything down. Just write me off."
Because Neptune was done. She had NOT come down to talk about herself, and she certainly wasn't here for another unsolicited lecture about the L-word and Jim. Neptune simply gathered her purse up and went to the door without learning a single thing about knitting.
"And I was wrong, again, about you." Pause. "You're not very nice after all." Mia was mind-boggling, forever changing hats and keeping Neptune in the dark as to who or what she REALLY was. Fortunately, Neptune didn't care that much.
Oh so that's how it was. Neptune could throw tantrums and use sarcasm but no one else was allowed to. Mia merely shook her head. One thing was clear. She and Neptune could not talk to each other without getting their words crossed.
Mia watched as the older girl crossed the room towards the door and she exhaled a long frustrated breath. Neptune's last words caused her to heave a deep sigh.
"Actually I am nice Neptune. I'm just tired of trying so hard with you." It was a shame really because Mia didn't like to not be friends with anyone but it seemed that she and Neptune were just not gonna be besties anytime soon.
