This is Nicole! Nicole's a pro at asking "are you free" instead of "do you want to," so if you don't have plans you don't really have an excuse not to go.
Fans of Nicole's jacket, I regret to inform you that I made it up in my head and I'm not sure where you can get it, aside from the wardrobe in my mind.
Comments
Exactly what I was thinking! I'm excited to see their paths cross...

I hypothesize she's talking about Berto and incorrectly using "Spanish" as an identifier to mean "speaks Spanish and has heritage somewhere that people speak Spanish". Danielle's characters are realistic enough that I'd not be surprised for one to make this kind of mistake (which is at best, cringe-worthy regional vernacular—in my state it's unfortunately common for people to use "Mexican" to mean "latino")

You can buy that jacket in my childhood in the 80s, lol. Poor Miranda, I hope she's used to this friend by now!
Ruth Merriam
Miranda: a woman of many ummms. Will the door be locked and the shades drawn at 8? Will she have melted into the floor again? Or will she go somewhere where other people wait on her? Come back up for air, Miranda! <3
It's nice having a Nicole in one's life if your Nicole is never offended if you don't show up. (Also...have we met "that Spanish guy??")
Lesley Mitchell
Invite, sure. Invitations aren't a problem. This is railroading, though. And that's not cool.
Dean Reilly
How dare she invite a friend to listen to music. That <i>monster </i>.

🎶I look inside my closet, hopeing I will find, that I can dress half as well, as the wardrobe in my mind 🎶
Tudza
Wardrobe in my mind. This should be part of a song lyric.
Allison Hastings
That is a good jacket
Laura J Testa-Reyes
Wow, talk about an ambush. Not someone I would want to stay friends witn.
