It was Sarah!

"Hello?"

"Hi, Liam" Sarah spoke softly, as if she didn't want to raise her voice. I noticed she was also breathing with a little difficulty. "How's... Everything going?"

"Great... I mean... I'm in much worse shape I thought... Uhm... Are you alright?"

"Yes. I'm... I'm great." I heard the shuffling of clothes in the background. "I'm trying stuff in the changing rooms, but... But it's so tight. But it's so good..."

"Well, always look for what's more comfortable, Sarah. If it's gonna make you wish you didn't have it on..."

"No, no, I would never wish I didn't have it." That sounded a little weird. It was probably a beautiful dress she didn't want to leave. Girl problems, am I right?

"Well... That's up to you, then. What does Brenda say?"

"I love it! I love it so much!" That was Brenda. Her voice sounded very close, so she was probably near the phone as well. Was she in the same changing room? She also spoke softly, but a little quickly. Probably they didn't want to make much noise at the shop "Sarah's just perfect!"

"Yes, I love it too!" Sarah said too, they both giggled. "How's... Ah! How's Katia?"

"Are you ok, Sarah?" Her noises were a little... Strange. There was a little rhythmic sound I couldn't make up.

"I'm perfect, yes! How's she?"

"She's... I got tired too fast..." I admitted "So she suggested... She told me to come back home. She kept on exercising with a girl called Linda..."

"Oh... How naughty of her to ditch you to do it with some girl she met..." She sounded as if... She'd liked that? I didn't know who was panting more, me, out of my tiredness, or her, out of trying a dress that was too tight.

"She didn't ditch me... She was... Honestly, she was nice about it. That Linda girl looked as if she could kept her pace, so she'll have fun."

"Oh, they'll have lots of fun, yes!"

"I'll just rest a little meanwhile... Apparently we'll continue working out at home. I'm a little scared, haha!"

"Katia has a huge... Ah! Heart! She can keep going and going and going... I'd love to hear how many rounds that Linda endured!"

"Rounds? You mean laps? They were jogging around the park although I didn't spot them when I was leaving..."

"Probably not many" Brenda added. Had they ignored me? "Only our Sarah and I can fully keep Katia's rhythm."

Our Sarah?

"Oh, you exercise with her too, Brenda? Are you trying on right clothes as well?"

"Yes and yes! But I eat as much as I burn with her!" She was panting as well. "And I'm... Fat, so it's very tight... But it's so good!"

"Oh, Brenda's amazing, Liam!"

"You two sound like you're making too much of an effort! Remember comfort comes first!"

"You're so kind to worry, Liam!" Brenda said sweetly.

"I love you, Liam" Sarah said. She sounded as if she were about to scream. "I love you so much! Oh my gosh, I'm c-"

Then the call ended. I was puzzled, but Sarah sent me a message a minute later.

» Sorry! I hung up by mistake! We're having so much fun trying stuff here! I'll see you at home in some hours! ♥

I was glad Sarah was having some quality time with her cousin, but it worried me they were choosing things that might be troublesome to wear later. I finally got back home. I sat and sprawled out on the sofa, not believing a single jogging had left me like that.

Fortunately, I could rest long, as Katia came back only after little less than an hour.

"Dude, that was amazing. That Linda was amazing" she said when she walked in, smirking. "Yo, dude, you missed it."

"I really needed that rest, thank you, but you did take a long time."

"I know. I get carried away at times. I had energy to keep going with Linda, but... Sarah would nag me if she knew I'd left with a girl instead of spending the morning with you."

"Oh. That's sweet."

"Shut up, dude." She said, but smiled. I liked her a little more.

"By the way, Sarah and Brenda called. They're having fun trying on clothes."

"Oh, I bet they are." Katia started moving the furniture of the living room out of the way, so I stood up from the couch.

"And Sarah wanted to know how many rounds Linda endured. Apparently you like working out with random chicks?"

Katia stopped and turned around to look at me. She smirked.

"Sarah knows me very well. Linda lasted three rounds."
