The next day, we finally are eating breakfast with Tara’s dad and Victoria.
In the hotel dining area this time.
“I hope you become a bridesmaid Tara, you can too Lauren.” Tara’s father tells the both of us.
But right before Tara was going to speak, Victoria decides to.
“Oh, I’m sorry, I already made a list of some. Tara can be a waitress for our reception, since she already is one.” Victoria interjects.
“Uh, at least I have a job, and what’s your job? Being a gold-digger?” Tara asks her whilst giving her a glare.
Making me grin, Victoria gasp, and Tara’s dad shake his head.
“I’ll have you know; I’m getting my real estate license soon.” Victoria explains as a matter of fact.
“Yeah? And who had to pay for you to get one? That’s right my dad.” Tara says giving her a smirk.
My best friend has no filter and I love it.
“That is enough you guys, Tara, just because Victoria isn’t your mom doesn’t mean you can be disrespectful, and Victoria, you’re thirteen years older than Tara, you should know better than to argue with her.” Tara’s dad explains whilst looking at them.
He cleared his throat, then continued.
“I suggest we all go to Magic Kingdom today, together. Since you two won’t get along, then it’s been decided, Victoria and I will accompany you and Lauren to Magic Kingdom today.” Tara’s dad says then takes a bite of his waffle.
“But dad...”
“Baby…”
Both women say at the same time.
This makes Tara’s dad hold up his hand.
“Unless Victoria, you still want us to go to Animal Kingdom, and you Tara want to go to Magic Kingdom alone with Lauren, I suggest starting now, you two become at least acquaintances with one another.” He suggests whilst giving them both a look.
What, the actual f**k is going on?
“Yes dad.”
“Whatever.”
Both speak in unison again.
It’s cool, but weird at the same time, if that makes any sense.
“Good, so I want the rest of breakfast to be calm, if it is calm, then we can all go our separate ways.” Tara’s dad says.
All was calm afterwards.
Well this is relaxing now.
“So, Lauren, how are things with you?” He asks me.
Oh great, here we go.
****………****
“I’LL BE THERE ALWAYS!!” Tara and I both sang loudly two hours later.
Whilst I was driving us to Magic Kingdom.
We just sang a song from Tarzan; you’ll be in my heart by Phil Collins.
Gosh, that’s one of my favorite movies.
And Tara’s as well.
“That song should be you and Brandon’s song, you know when you two get married, that first dance song.” Tara says grinning at me.
Which I can see from the corner of my eye.
“Oh gosh, I mean, sure we should have a Disney wedding, but we have one song in mind for our first dance song.” I tell her whilst turning on my right blinker and go to the right lane.
“Ooh, what is it?” She asks excitedly.
“Um, that song from the Disney movie, Enchanted, called So Close. It played during our second date. And we actually danced to it.” I tell her, while giving her a quick smile and glance then focus back on the road.
“Awh.” Was all she says.
I can see in the corner of my eye her smiling whilst also placing her right hand over her heart.
“Yeah, but right now, he’s looking for an apartment for us.” I tell her.
“Ugh, that’s super cute.” She says grinning like the Cheshire Cat.
Making me laugh.
“You’re too much sometimes Tara.” I chuckled.
“But you still love me.” She laughs.
“That I do girl.” I say.
*****………..*****
We go onto the monorail, and sat down next to each other, then we both got on our phones.
I was texting Brandon, and Tara was checking her i********:.
“Wow, Victoria followed me on Instagram.” Tara says with annoyance.
“What a crime, call the police.” I say not looking up from my phone.
“I mean, should I follow her back?” Tara asks me.
“Yeah, that would be a good start.” I explained to her whilst putting my phone inside my black backpack that had Mickey ears on it.
“Meh, okay.” She sighs.
I looked down at my outfit, I was wearing black and white Nike sneakers, light pink jean shorts, and a white Sleeping Beauty shirt. Also, my hair was up in a high ponytail.
“Good girl.” I tell her whilst patting her bare leg.
She had on dark red Nike spandex shorts, with a white Toy Story tank top, and dark red and white Nike sneakers, and her dirty blonde hair was up in a high ponytail as well.
Also, thank goodness Victoria and Tara’s dad decided to go to Animal Kingdom instead of coming here to Magic Kingdom with us.
“Yeah oh well, at least we will have a good ass time today at Magic Kingdom.” Tara says whilst flashing me a smile.
“That we will my friend, that we will.” I grin back at her.
I really hope we have a good time at Magic Kingdom, also with the fact that tomorrow is our last day in Orlando, then we go back to Boca Raton.
Plus, we really need this because Tara and I are going our separate ways, starting this August.
She’s going to move near the University of Central Florida, to attend school there to get her master’s degree, whilst Brandon and I are venturing out in this area, because he got an accounting job here, and I start my job as a district manager for the Target here.
She’ll be 45 mins away from me, and that might not be so far, but still, we were joined at the hip, we went to same elementary, middle, and high school. And even the same college.
I pray we have a good ole time.
