But responsibility did catch the giggling pair as it always did and they arrived back to Elias-Clark still windswept and slightly out of breath when they saw the photographers. Andrea must have looked confused because Miranda said, “they are here for the Helen Mirren pre interview for her cover shoot.”
“really? I didn’t know she was going to be on the cover, I love her.”
“Hmm, interesting. Come on we have to go in so put on your press face, and lets go.” They two locked arms and walked through the crowd into the Elias-Clark building pausing once to allow the press to get the shoot. Once inside they shared an elevator, and Andy sighed and leaned against the elevator door before saying, “I really don’t like doing that.”
“Who does?” Came the obvious sounding answer from Miranda. It sounded harsh but Andy knew that it was Miranda’s way of saying me too. She had realized that it wasn’t that hard to read Miranda once you knew her signs.
The next day Andy was sleeping in her apartment when she heard a knock on the door. She didn’t have to go to work that day since Miranda wanted to go shopping and they agreed to meet at Starbuck’s at 10am. Andy rolled over and looked at her clock, 8am. Urgg, she groaned as she pulled herself from the bed and opened the door.
“Miranda, its early.” Complained Andy as dove back under the covers and pulled them over her head.
“Come on up, I want to get this done and I have a feeling that it will take forever.” Said Miranda as she put down her light jacket and purse and tried to pull Andy out of bed. “Andy!!” She roared and she saw the brown head of her best friend appear. She got out of bed and disappeared into the bathroom, running a shower. Miranda chuckled and made her bed before starting coffee and toasting Andy’s bagel. She disapproved of eating so many carbs so early in the morning but she long ago learned to pick her fights with Andrea. So here she was in the kitchen shifting through the refrigerator looking for the veggie cream cheese that Andy loved.
“Mira, what are you doing?”
“Looking for your cream cheese, and must you use that silly nickname?”
“Yes I think it suits you, simple and pretty.”
“Make me sound like a child’s toy.” Said Miranda as she found the cream cheese and finished Andrea’s breakfast. She turned to take in what she had on, a new pair of Seven jeans and a brown sweater.
“You look nice, relaxed but nice.” Said Andrea and Mirnada looked down to see what she was wearing, black pants and a white sweater with two inch heels bearing in mind that she was going to be pulled all over town. She smiled and turned back to the refrigerator to put away the cream cheese and cream her mind flashing back to her first shopping trip with Andrea.
Miranda was sitting in her study reviewing her notes from the day’s shoot when she heard the front door open. Andrea, she thought and turned back to her work when she heard the sounds of her daughter’s feet on the stairs. Curious she crept foreword and looked into the entranceway keeping hidden in the shadows.
“Andy!” Came two excited whispers as they flung themselves into her arms after she set down the book. She scooped the pair of them up and spun them around in a circle.
“Hey squirts, how are you? Glad to have mom home?”
“Yea but we wish that she would have been there when Stephen moved his stuff out.” Said Cassidy the more reserved of the two, while Caroline snuggled into Andy’s side and said in a low voice, “why did he leave us? What did we do wrong?”
“Oh squirts, you did nothing wrong, its just that sometimes grown ups have their disagreements. Come on lets go talk to your mother. She will know how to handle this.” She took one twin in each hand and lead them to the study where she figured Mirnada was.
Miranda dashed back to her chair and slid into it just before the three walked in, but they didn’t come over they stayed glued to Andrea’s side.
“Yes Andrea?”
“Miranda, the girls need to talk to you about the divorce. They are worried that it was their fault that Stephan left.” and with that she let go of their hands and gave them a gentle nudge towards their mother and left without a word.
The next day Miranda sent the twins off to school as usual and made her way to the office. She threw her coat and bag on Emily’s desk and tuned to Andrea, except Andrea wasn’t there. That was odd, I swore I just saw her, thought Miranda. She moved around the desk and looked down, and saw Andrea’s ass.
“Andrea, what are you doing?”
“Miranda!…Ouch! My purse fell over and I can’t find my keys. Have you seen them?” Asked Andrea as she rubbed her head where she banged it on the desk. Miranda shook her head but dropped to her knees and helped Andy look. They soon found them and Andrea helped Mirnada up.
“Thanks,” Andy said as she dropped them in her purse. Miranda nodded and walked into her office. Miranda sat behind her desk and tried to think about what she should do about her daughter’s. They had a long talk last night and Miranda wanted to do something for them, but everything she thought to buy them seemed wrong. She needed help, so she asked the one person she thought to ask, Andrea.
“Andrea? Andrea?” Miranda called and looked up as she watched Andrea saunter in, and Emily glare. “Close the door, Andrea and sit down.” She did as she was asked and sat down and asked, “how are the squirts, I mean the twins?”
“They are fine, I wanted to thank you for telling me that I needed to talk to them. I want to get them something but I cant think of what to do. Oh and why do you call them squirts?”
“Because it makes them laugh and my parents used to call me squirt, plus they are like a mini you. You should get them something personal.”
“You are coming shopping with me, get your purse, squirt.” And Miranda stood and made her way to the outer office leaving behind an astonished Andrea.
