Friendie
The other day Zoe was describing to me the difference between a “bestie” and a “friendie.” (I gathered from our talk that the latter is someone who is more than a friend but not quite a boyfriend. Zoe didn’t use the word “boyfriend,” but I think that’s what she was getting at.) She told me that Leo is her “friendie,” and when I commented that she hadn’t seen in him a long time she just shrugged and said, “So? That doesn’t make the feelings disappear.”
I love her loyalty.
