Leonie finally got word from Mandy
#Leonie is a woman over 40, she could be your neighbor. After her divorce, she builds her new life. With neighbor Mandy she has dinner appointments of the good kind: Mandy cooks! Love also comes around the corner, with all the consequences that this entails.
Every time a whatsapp message came in, Leonie didn't know how fast she had to pick up her phone to see who it was. She felt that she had received hundreds of messages from everyone, except the message she wanted. From Mandy. She was very worried about what might be going on. What had this change brought about? Where were the swarthy messages, the wink mileys? Why this silence? And then when the message finally came, Leonie didn't know if she should be happy. Finally there was the message of Mandy, but without winking mileys and without ambiguous remarks. It was short, and the words did not bode well: 'let's get together. We need to talk.” But it was a message from Mandy, and yet Leonie's heart jumped. She immediately reacted: “tell me when!” This time a quick answer from Mandy: 'When will your children be gone? ' 'Tomorrow evening', Leonie replied. “Okay, dinner at my house, I cook.” “Is good. I look forward to it', replied Leonie and added a smiley smiley. But there was no more answer. It was as quiet as it had been in the days before.
She was worried. About Mandy, about her and Mandy. About if anything happened the last time she saw her. Yeah, something had happened. Ilse had been at the door while Mandy and Leonie were sitting in a bathrobe on the couch. But that couldn't have been the reason for the icy silence on Mandy's part, could it? Leonie didn't understand anything at all.
At work she tried to keep her attention, today the children from school would go back to Erik. Erik, who was angry with her, too. What the hell was going on? Was it her? She decided to send Erik a reply to his angry reaction. “Sorry, my reaction was misplaced, my apologies, “she sent him. She hoped that this would help to alleviate the suffering. That was the only thing she wanted to achieve with it, because actually she was still behind her first message, she was still angry about the shopping action of Suzanne. But her attack was clumsy to say the least.
When she got out of work, her heart jumped when she saw Mandy's car in the parking lot. Happy! She was there. She went to her own house for a minute, to freshen herself up, but couldn't wait to go see Mandy. She noticed she had blushes on her cheeks. At the same time, she was also afraid of the meeting. What did Mandy have to say about the days of silence? Leonie was standing in the bathroom with the perfume that Mandy had given her, ready to put some perfume down her neck, but she doubted if she would. Instead she sprayed some of the wonderful scent into the air, it didn't feel good to carry the smell too noticeable.
