"My boyfriend!" Amanda declared loudly.
"Who's your boyfriend?!" Sienna gasped.
"Edward Milton, of course!" Amanda burst out.
Sienna was struck as if by a bolt of lightning, rendering her utterly speechless, her complexion paling as her mind went blank.
"Oh, Sienna, I'm so sorry," Amanda suddenly exclaimed, noticing her friend's dumbfounded expression. She felt a pang of guilt for not sharing this earlier, assuming Sienna might not be feeling well about this.
