When Aya's eyes collided with Lina's, she blushed thanks to the wicked grin that her old friend was throwing her way.
She could discern the cause of this grin and somewhere deep down, she felt proud that she had accomplished this despite the things of the past.
Aya's deep-rooted crush for Lina felt different from what she felt for Stacy.
With Stacy, every moment was refreshing, exhilarating, and she never knew what would happen next.
That girl had whisked her away to a vacation where only the two of them were present and no one else they knew was around to interrupt them.
A week-long trip had come to an end in the blink of an eye and after which, Aya realized what she felt for Stacy was much stronger than what she had assumed she felt for Lina.
With Lina, it was a puppy crush where she was often depressed that the other woman could not identify and reciprocate her feelings.
