Thread: Forbidden love is the sweetest kind  (Toritaynympho and whtbitch4u2own)

Sitting down, Sofia rolled her eyes a bit and playfully nudged Priyanka back. It's my fault for keeping my back turned. But your fault for trying to play poltergeist on me. she complained, her scowl morphing into an easy smile. Since the two had first met at the beginning of the semester, a fast friendship had sprung up. Coming from somewhat similar backgrounds of powerful families, Sofia had felt that Priyanka was a kindred spirit. Very early on, they had gotten to know each other and share details about each other's lives. They had even gone on a double date a couple of times. Though that was rare occurrence given their schedules and the even more crazy schedules of their respective boyfriends. Both of them were in a similar boat in that regard. Ricardo was so busy with his work and studies at Harvard. Already he was being courted by Goldman Sachs, and his aspirations to become a real life Gordon Gecko type meant that he rarely came to see Sofia. In many respects, their relationship was based more on a power connection than it was on love or feelings. It wasn't as if Sofia didn't care for Ricardo, but she definitely didn't love him in a romantic way. But that wasn't something that was a major focus in the Garcia family. Her father had helped facilitate the introduction with Ricardo initially, and it was he who hoped the two would yet marry. In many ways, it was the only thing in her life that Sofia wished her father didn't attempt to emphasize his will into. The young latina had dreams and aspirations of her own, and one such dream was to find a romantic lover. Someone who wasn't just a good partner from a business standpoint as her father wished. But someone who she could confide in, trust, adore, and give her heart fully to. Ricardo just wasn't that person, though Sofia wished he was. He was a nice man, and would make a decent husband. But he just wasn't the person she longed to give her heart to. Truthfully, she wasn't sure where her own feelings lay. There was really only one person she felt close to on a more intimate level. And that person sat but feet from her. I know where you're coming from. Sofia said with a sigh. Every time I see Ricardo, he just wants to talk about Wall Street and how he hopes he'll make partner by thirty. I try not to roll my eyes, but every time he talks mergers and acquisitions, I struggle not to fall asleep. Don't even get me started about when I visited him in New York over the summer. I hardly saw him, and spent most of my time waiting around when he promised to entertain me. Sighing, Sofia raised her eyes at Priyanka's coffee challenge. Oh? are you going to make some super strong coffee? Sofia giggled back. You do remember that I'm almost pure Colombian? I might sounds like an American, but I can drink coffee with the best of them. So do your worst if you think you can best me in that regard! Hehe!!!! It was true that Sofia had an almost unlimited caffeine resistance. Growing up, she had coffee with almost every meal, and as such had grown to become borderline addicted to the rich black liquid. Still drinking almost a full pot to this day. Though she much preferred espresso or coffee from a french press. Nodding her head, she smiled to her friend. Well it is the weekend, the dark haired Latina said with a smirk. So I have no classes tomorrow. I was thinking of staying up for a while. I'm almost done with my papers and studying, so I'm probably going to be free all day tomorrow and Sunday. What about you? Closing down her computer, Sofia put the device away in her room and then came back to sit down and hang out with the closest friend she had. A long night huh? the Latina giggled, nodding to the book in her roommate's hand. I suppose it could be in a way. Unless you aren't really planning on reading that? Part of her hoped that the beauty would put the book down. She so enjoyed their late night talks. Priyanka was the only person Sofia told any secrets to. The only person she trusted enough.
