Chapter 128

• Shaking like a leaf, Trixie stood up and made her way over to them, her gaze locked on Helga. When she reached them, she stepped into Helga's embrace, exhaling deeply as she felt her friend's petite frame against her own tall body. As they pulled apart, Helga touched Trixie's face, her fingers gliding softly over her skin.
• "I missed you," Trixie breathed, her fingers gripping Helga's arms tightly. "When did you arrive?"
• "I hopped on a plane this morning," Helga replied quietly. "I heard this is your first birthday as an out and proud gay woman, so naturally, I wanted to come over and give you a birthday kiss."
