“You’re not going to believe who I saw Marla wallowing in the mud with, Ella…”
Ella’s teacup froze mid-air. “No. Way. You mean with Gus. Again!?! After the whole Stacy incident?”
“Well, Marla told Manerva they’re ‘just friends’,” Rhiannon smirked, “but those mud splashes on Gus’ back were telling a different story!”
“Marla would die if she heard you say that!” spouted Ella.
“I’m not sure…,” feigned Rhiannon, “given the number of mud baths she’s taking I’d wager her skin’s pretty thick!”
“Ppppffffterrrt!!”
