Chapter Six: Non-mixable
Liljana sat talking to three of her best friends at the park. They were sitting under a huge tree in the shade, eating lunch and trying to get Liljana to tell them about ‘this guy’.
“Just tell us!” Holly squealed.
“I can’t.”
“So, you say he’s having this party...?” urged Naomi.
“I’m not even sure it’s a party. He just said that he was having some friends over with some music. In his parent’s barn. ”
Naomi shifted, “It’s got potential.”
“Yeah. You said you like him. Why not go for it?”
“I’ve told you why!”
“Then you’ll just have to do something that will let him know that you’re better than everyone else.”
“What about Dave?” Liljana said as she started fiddling with a
“Lil, sorry to say it, but Dave is a bore. With a capital ‘B’ that’s been put into size 20 bold font.”
“He’s not that bad.”
“Liljana. Are you really happy with him?”
“I’m happy...”
“But is ‘happy’ really enough? You need some excitement in your life, Sweetie.”
“Pronto. You’re either in the studio or darkroom or with Dave. You never come out partying with us anymore. It‘s been months.” Sarah put in.
“You have to go to this get-together, party, shindig-whatever. You’re going and that’s that. So we are taking you out shopping this weekend.”
“Fine. But I’m only going to be there for twenty minutes or so. Just to say that I went. And I’m getting Dave to come with me!”
“You can’t do that!”
“Why not?!”
“It’s the unspoken rule! Geez. We’ve got to drag you out with us Saturday night. Has it really been that long?”
“I guess.” Liljana shrugged sheepishly.
“No worries. We’ll have you back to your old party-animal-self in no time.”
***
Liljana groaned. Holly had called her at seven o’clock to wake her up. She had told her to “F.uck off.”
Ten minutes later, Sarah called and told her to get her rear end out of bed. She had put the phone down.
Another ten minutes later, Naomi called, threatening to drag Liljana around town naked if she wasn’t ready to go out in an hour. Liljana hauled herself out of bed and into the shower.
As she was getting her makeup on, she heard her backdoor open. ‘I thought I told them not to use the key unless there was an emergency.’
“Hey, Sleepyhead! Am I dragging your ass ‘round town naked, or are you ready?”
“Hold on!” Liljana finished putting on her mascara and rushed downstairs, grabbing her bag from the top of the stairs. “Why are we going so early, Naomi?”
“Because we’re taking you to The Meadow’s mall. Took an hour and a half to get there last time I went. You all set?”
“Yeah. I’ve just got to leave my parents a note.” She found some paper and scribbled down where she was and when she would be back, signing it with a flourish and some kisses. “Lets get gone.”
***
“Oh my God! He took your panties?” The girls squealed and laughed, each wondering why Liljana still hadn’t gotton together with him because he sounded like he’d be great for her. “Can we please give ‘this guy’ an imaginary name, if you’re not going to tell us who it really is?”
“Jeff.”
“Okay. So this Jeff dude. He sounds perfect for you. He sounds sweet, funny, sexy. Perfect.”
“We know you don’t want to let Dave down either, but...remember what a party animal you used to be?”
“Yeah.” Liljana chuckled, remembering dancing and practically dry humping guys on the dance floor. “I just... I’m so involved with my work now. I’m working on starting my own gallery when I’ve done finals and... I’ve just been so busy. Photography takes a lot of time.”
“Yeah. Must be fun stuck in a cupboard all by yourself for hours on end.” Holly chuckled.
“I guess I should get out a bit more.”
“Lets make a pact. Everyone promises that we will all meet up one night a week and party. No excuses.”
“I guess I could...”
Smiles were shared in the car and they all shook hands.

“No way! It looks terrible!” Liljana cringed as she went back into the dressing room. Pink really wasn’t her colour. The next outfit consisted of a red leather halter neck, a black mini and knee length black boots. Liljana scrunched her nose up in disgust and chucked it in the ‘no’ pile.
“Oi! Try that on, Missy!” Liljana gasped and looked up. Naomi was leaning over the top of the changing room door, apparently being held up by Holly and Sarah - Naomi disappeared suddenly followed by a thud and lots of laughing.
She shuffled out of the room wearing the outfit. She liked the top and the boots.
“Nope. It looks terrible.”
“Horrendous.”
“You look like a Ho, frankly.”
“Thanks.”
“You’re welcome. Anytime.” Liljana rolled her eyes and went back to change into a dress.
“You know. I think I’ve lost my fashion sense over past few months, too.”
“No doubt about that, Sugar.” Naomi teased. Liljana opened the door and the three friends stared in shock.
“Thats...”
“Wow.”
“..Amazing!”
“This is the one.” Liljana took in her appearance in the mirror. The teal dress had thin, beaded straps and was scrunched down the front. The bottom was handkerchief style, the longest bits falling to mid-thigh. Liljana knew that she would have to find some high brown boots, so she didn’t look too girly.
The three friends treated Liljana to the dress, then got some lunch at the pasta bar before dragging her around all the shoe shops in the mall, looking for the perfect boots.
As they were walking past a shoe shop, a pair of boots caught Liljana’s eye. “Hey girls, wait up. How about these?”
The girls crowded around the window. “Yeah.”
“They’re gorgeous!”
“Definitely.”
Twenty minutes later Liljana was equipped with a full outfit for next Saturday.
***
Liljana was dropped off home and told to be ready to go partying in an hour. She stuck the food her parents had left out for her in the microwave and went to change and vamp up her makeup.
***
Liljana had to admit she was a bit nervous. She hadn’t been partying in months and was afraid she had forgotten how to dance. The girls had to literally drag her in the club, Holly on one arm, Sarah on the other. They used to party at ‘Perry’s’ but Naomi informed her that ‘The Pitt’ was better. So there they were.
Liljana headed straight for the bar with Naomi to get the drinks, hoping that she would loosen up a bit after she had some alcohol inside her. After a couple of shots of Tia Maria and some cagouling from the girls, Liljana got up on the dance floor. She closed her eyes and let her body move to the beat. She danced mindlessly, feeling stupid for thinking that she would forget how to dance.
Heads turned as Liljana moved, her short white skirt and white boob tube showing off her body.
“Woo! You go girl!” Naomi shouted over the music. Liljana opened her eyes and grinned, grabbing her hand and dancing with her for the next few songs.
“Naomi, I’ll be back in a sec. I just need to use the bathroom.” Naomi nodded and Liljana waded her way through the crowd.
