Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk (Williams and Shawn) novel Chapter 219

In the evening, Allison got a call from her best friend, Sabrina. “Hey babe, New Year's Eve is coming up fast. Got any plans?”

Allison glanced at her phone's calendar—it was already December 28th.

“Not really,” she replied, her voice a bit raspy from all the crying earlier.

Sabrina noticed right away. “Babe, what's going on? You sound a little rough.”

“I'm okay, just caught a bit of a cold.”

“Oh, alright then,” Sabrina said, not questioning her further. “So, what’s the plan for New Year's? Are you spending it with Joshua, or hanging out with Olivia and me?”

Just hearing Joshua's name made Allison's eyes well up again. “Joshua and I...”

“What about you two?”

The room was brightly lit, and snowflakes danced quietly outside the window.

Allison sat on her bed, phone in hand, staring at her toes. “We... we had a bit of a disagreement...”

She didn't want to say they’d broken up. In her mind, it was just a bump in the road.

Sabrina chimed in, “Oh, just a spat? No biggie. Every couple fights once in a while. For New Year's, I'll have my brother invite Joshua out. We’ll meet up, and you two can get some alone time. Trust me, a hug and a kiss can fix anything.”

Sabrina paused, then cheekily added, “And if that doesn’t do the trick, well, you know what to do—just take it to the next level!”

Sabrina was always so bold, never one to hold back. Allison knew her friend’s carefree spirit well, but still, her cheeks turned pink at Sabrina's suggestive comments.

“Don’t get so embarrassed, Allie. I'm telling you, men love things simple and straightforward. Talking it out doesn’t always work with them.”
