"Guys ..." mummbled Maggie. Actually it was one guy. An ex-boyfriend, as of this morning, who apparently found someone else. Maggie wondered how she could've thought it'd work out. He was on the other side of the country for gooodness sake! How could she for a moment believe that she was that happy?

"Yeah, they basically suck," Carmina said finishing the girls sentence and taking a seat next to her on the sandy beach.

Maggie blushed, being caught off gaurd. She watched as the girl sat next to her. "Yeah ... they do." Maggie sighed, looking thoughtfully at the ocean. After moment, Maggie realized, she should probably intriduce herself. "I'm Maggie, by the way." She said, turning to the new girl. She noticed the girl had an exotic face; she was probably of Latin American decent.

"Carmina, very nice to meet you,"Carmina said offering Maggie a warm smile.

Maggie managed a weak smile back. "Nice to meet you, too." She looked back at the ocean and sighed, her mind still on one thing. "What is it about love that makes us so stupid?" She asked finally.

Carmina shrugged, not really knowing the real answer,"My Grandmother used to tell me 'el amor nos hace cegamos,' it means that love makes up blind." Carmina paused for a moment, trying to think of the right words,"I think what she meant is that when you love someone, its harder for you to see their flaws."

"That's totally true! And then when something goes wrong it feels like ... it's your fault, ya know? I feel like I did something wrong." Maggie said sadly, not really realizing that she was having a personal conversation with an almost stranger.

Carmina shook her head,"Even if you did something wrong, which I'm sure you did not, things happen for a reason, and one day you will look back and be glad things happened the way they did."

Although Carmina's words made complete sense, they didn't seem real to Maggie. They didn't justify how she felt right then. She just nodded, "I hope that day comes soon." She mummbled. Imagining a day when she would be happy and care-free seemed like a fantasy right now. She knew it'd come eventually. It had to.

"It will come," Carmina promised. She turned to face the ocean, letting the warm salty breeze whip her hair around her body.
