Abstract: The three stories in this manuscript "Creepy," "Elegantly," and "Bad Romance" interrogate the complexities, joys, and struggles of female friendship. In "Creepy," the first person narrator, Annie, develops a friendship with her neighbor, Ms. Jacobs, while she cleans out Ms. Jacobs's cat's litter box during Ms. Jacobs' pregnancy. The story tracks Annie's relationship to her sexuality and her relationship to her mother. "Elegantly" follows Julia's desire to adopt a Chinese daughter, and "Bad Romance" is a sister story, following Melanie's relationship to Annesley, her younger sister who finds fame on Youtube.
