No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Fanny wasn't one to back down either. "Right, Yates has a girlfriend. Milly, you know better than to cross that line."

Standing her ground with such confidence spoke volumes about her status.

As Milly and Fanny locked eyes, it became clear that Milly couldn't shake Fanny.

After a few verbal volleys without a clear win, Milly finally broke the tense silence. "Tell Yates to leave an hour early tomorrow. No one's going to wait for him if he's late."

It was obviously a bluff, clearly just an excuse to start trouble.

Fanny chuckled, "Alright, then we're pulling an all-nighter."

At that moment, I really wanted to give Fanny a round of applause. She was just too cool.

Under Fanny's provocation, Milly's radiant face finally crumbled, and she stormed off.

Watching her leave, I gave Fanny a thumbs-up.

She pointed at me, signaling how impressed she was that I lived next door to them.
