Prologue

Something was wrong. Nami could tell so much just from a short glance over the
entrance hall.
“Vivi?” the ginger called out, taking off her favourite brown leather
sandals. 
No answer.
She put them in the line of shoes, disturbed only by Vivi's blue pumps lying on
the floor a bit away. How uncharacteristic for the usually so tidy politics
student.
Nami picked them up and put the footwear on the usual place before opening the
door dividing the hall from the actual living quarters.
Instead of going straight to the kitchen to get some coffee, Nami headed for her
friend's room.
“Vivi?” she called out again, before pulling down the doorknob. The door
opened with a quiet grate, revealing a highly concerning image.
The blue-haired girl was lying on her bed, crying. Her body shook with every
sob.
“Oh my..”Nami whispered. “What happened?” the ginger asked as she sat
down next to Vivi and started rubbing her back softly to calm her down.
The crying girl needed some attempts, but finally managed to pull herself
together enough for Nami to understand what she wanted to say. “Kohza broke up
with me.”
The revelation surprised Nami. Vivi has been dating Kohza for the past four
years and they have been joking about marriage a lot these past months, with
Vivi finally getting her master's degree this summer and all.
“Why?” the ginger blurted out.
“He is moving to Cuba.” Vivi explained bitterly in between sobs.
“Cuba? You can't be serious!” Nami couldn't help but laugh out despite the
situation. She knew about Kohza's obsession with revolutionaries and especially
Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, but this was plain ridiculous!
“Oh girl...” she let out a sigh. “ You are better off without a moron like
him. And you still have me, don't you?”
The exclamation together with Nami's inappropriate wink made Vivi smile, even
though tears were still rolling down her cheeks.
“Thank you” the words were a mere whisper, but Nami caught them never the
less.
“Always! And now: pull yourself together! You will get over him and get
yourself a better guy, even if it takes some time! Until then, welcome to the
happy single-ladies club! Do you want any coffee or tea?”
Nami's energetic way had its own magic and cheered Vivi up to the extent that
she wasn't crying anymore as she spoke.
“A cup of tea, please.” there was a weak smile on her lips now as she wiped
the tears away. 
“That's my girl.” Nami grinned, as she left the room. “And be prepared to
go out with me on Friday!” She called over her shoulder as she walked to the
kitchen.
