I'm just going to go ahead and declare my undying love to you now.
OMG, I LOVE THIS.
Everything about this is perfect. Penny's love of garage sales, a young Juliet on her way to Med School, the way the conversation pivots around Our Mutual Friend---it all just fillled me with squee even as it gave me goosebumps. I adore both of these women so much and the idea that they met and shared this beautiful moment together makes me so incredibly happy.
And this:
“Oh! Uh, Penelope! You forgot this!” Juliet was waving Our Mutual Friend over her head.
“No, I didn’t,” Penny called back with a smile. “I’m sure I’ll read it eventually. That belongs to you.”
Juliet was speechless. She tucked the book under her arm and yelled out her thanks as the car started to roll out of the driveway. Penny waved back as she headed out onto the road and out of sight.
*happy sigh*
Penny let her keep the book. GUH. Thank you so, so much for this! :D
