Lyca puts on make-up. She need to go out and she has to hurry - she has a date with a doctor and it is going to be intense. Lyca narrows her eyes as the words cancer surf over her mind - she hopes she does not have cancer, if she did she would feel bad.
Lyca throws the lipstick into her back and then she leaves. She has to hurry or she will be late.
Lyca veers through traffic and arrives at the doctor on time. There is an hour wait and she sits there chewing on her nails to pass the time. When the doctor calls her she feels so much relief that she sees stars, and she fast picks up her purse and follows the doctor into their room.
"So is it cancer?" asks Lyca right away.
"No;" tells the doctor. "Just built up bacteria for which you need some medication;"
Lyca smiles - she is so happy she almost faints.
Lyca leaves the doctor and goes to the store to buy her medication. At the store she sees Anne who is shopping.
"I don't have cancer!" tells Lyca.
Anne smiles.
"Great!" she cheers.
"Want to visit my place to party?" she Lyca. "Drinks and snacks;"
"Sure!" tells Anne as she rummages through her purse. "I'll buy a cake and follow your car!"
At Lyca's house the kids run around while Anne and Lyca chat and drink. They talk about their yesterdays, and their fears, and their hopes. It is like normal - they are busy doing nothing but living life over what they had yesterday when they were living at home.
"It's so great that we are able to celebrate;" tells Anne. "After my job failed I wasn't sure what I needed to pick me up;"
"I wasn't sure too;" tells Lyca as she raises her brows. "But I am glad you came over, I really enjoy seeing you; being able to talk to someone is great!" she tells. "I makes me feel so much better;" she adds.
"Me too;" agrees Anne. "Well here's to a happy celebration;" she mutters as she raises her glass.
"And to luck;" tells Lyca. "I feel I have been giving the whole rainbow;" she laughs.
"Me too;" tells Anne. "In the form of a good friend;"
"Thanks;" smiles Lyca. "Now lets eat this cake!"
