"Anything happen in those 24 hours?" Suri asked.
"No. It wasn't even 24 hours."
"It doesn't matter. You didn't do anything with him anyway."
Suri was Janie's friend since young. They shared a room together but now that they were both well off they were able to afford their own apartment in New York. Suri was a punk rock type of chick but she works as an accountant. Her hairstyle is always changing and so does the color. She has her own office with interns and some employees. Surie managed to persuade Janie to move to New York from her hometown in Virginia. Although Janie would make more money in Virginia with her job.
"Why are you always like this with guys?"
"Like what?"
"You're always shy. You need to talk more!"
"I don't even like him."
"You haven't had a boyfriend for a century now."
"My last one was Eric wasn't it?"
"Yeah, but that was two years ago. And you didn't have a boyfriend for years before Eric."
"I don't need a boyfriend right now. And plus he's my boss. Colleague in a way."
"No. He's so far from a colleague. And everyone says they don't need a boyfriend but once it's too late they can't find one."
"I really don't need one. I got a job and still a fresh 23 year old."
"I don't care how old you are. But you need a boyfriend."
"You need to take care of yourself first. Did you sort out the Kurt and Phil deal?"
"Yeah. Kurt is out of the picture since you scared him away. Phil is stationed overseas now."
"You have more problems than me so you deal with that first."
"No, my first priority now is to get you a boyfriend."
"You did that with Eric, it didn't work out too well."
"It's just 'cause he's a workaholic. You guys were cute together. He was your type!"
"And I wasn't his type."
"Yeah, you are. You're cute and asian. You don't have the same features of other asians but you still are asian."
"Why so much emphasis on the asian?"
"Eric wanted to try date an asian."
Janie rolled her eyes. "Currently rolling my eyes."
Suri laughs.
