You only let your brother or close friends call you that,” Reece responded, taking a bite of her wrap. “Reece, you’re thinking too hard on this, friend.” “I get called friend when I call you out. Bestie when I agree with you!” Reece taunted. I took another bite of my sandwich, ignoring her underhanded comment. “Between you and Essence, I can’t win, no matter what.” Tisha closed the door of my office after setting everything out. “The best way to be a best friend is to keep you on your toes, babe,” Reece replied. “Just wait for when Essence gets with somebody; I can see her obsessing over every little thing,” I mentioned. “Essence would probably have us following the guy if he doesn’t call her after a day or two of meeting,” Reece joked.
