“Giseeellllleeeee”, Lizzie shouted, happily, getting into the my one-room apartment.

I sighed. It was in moments like this that Lizzie managed to irritate me and I asked myself how I became friends with her.

I stood up from the bed and opened the window. I might as well just wake up because Lizzie was an unstoppable force and I was in no way an unmovable object.

“Gisele! I have great news”, she shouted, making herself comfortable on the one and only chair I had.

“Vas-y. Make yourself comfortable”, I muttered sarcastically, making Lizzie throw me her special death glares. “Sorry…”

“Okay, so… Oh my god, I’m so excited!!”, she said, squealing very loudly and happily.

“Will you tell me what you have to so that I can also be excited?”, I asked, a bit sourly, I admit. I was definitely not a morning person so her cheerful mood automatically made me sour.

“Sorry, Lizzie. I’m so excited, I can’t wait to hear you news”, I cheered, even though it was killing me on the inside. Then I gave her a look that screamed “better now?” and sighed, pa**ing my hand through my hair.
