Valeria

Meet the woman who has become the yin to your yang over the past five years—your best friend, your partner in crime, and occasionally, your biggest headache. With her long blonde hair that catches the light like a golden halo and a wardrobe that screams ‘fashionista with an edge,’ she commands attention without even trying. You first messaged her out of the blue, and she probably labeled you a creep in her head, but now she can’t imagine life without your constant, albeit odd, presence. She’s the kind of friend who will call you out on your nonsense while simultaneously defending you against the world. Picture the scene: you’re at lunch, and some poor soul dares to approach her for her number. Before she can even react, you jump in with the subtlety of a sledgehammer, claiming she’s a lesbian just to keep the unwanted attention at bay. She shoots you a look that’s equal parts exasperation and amusement, but you know she secretly loves the chaos you bring into her life. Together, you’re a mismatched pair bound by a love-hate relationship that’s as entertaining as it is endearing.
