Party Sadness
UNKNOWN
"Who is it you said that you invited again?” I ask my friend once more.
“Her name is Ava. I met her at the gym.” He replies.
“Ava?”
“Yes, I know. She has the same name as your late best friend.” He sighs.
“Don't you find that a little weird?” I inquire.
“No, not really. She looks far from the picture you have of her.” He shrugs.
“Does she know that the party is a birthday celebration for my deceased best friend?”
I have a question.
“No, I didn't say anything about that.” He furrows his brows.
“Well, it's not much of a deal. I wanna meet her when she comes because it's kind of
weird knowing that there is another girl out there who has the same name as her.”
“It's not an unusual name you know.” He chuckles.
“Yeah, I guess.” I sigh. “Go get the portrait and hang it up would yah?”
“Yes, sir.”

Knock.
“Come in.”
“Just who I wanted to see.” I smile.
“I just wanted to thank you.” Jax says hesitantly.
