"I'm just sayin Lani, if not now then when? You just gotta give me some kinda time frame" scooter told me while we sat in ihop, waiting on our server to come like we've been doing for the past 10 minutes
"Where is our server? I'm hungry" I complained, switching the topic because I really didn't wanna talk about this right now. I just wanted to eat
"Shit, they need to hurry up.. aye" he tapped the arm over the girl walking past "we been here bout 10 minutes. Where our server at?"
"I'll go get her for you" the girl replied before going to get our server. I looked at the menu again feeling scooter look at me
"Whatchu getting?" I asked him before he could even mention a damn wedding again
"Steak and eggs. Whatchu want?"
"Some strawberry banana pancakes, bacon, eggs.. Ouu and French toast sticks"
Scooter laughed while shaking his head
"I apologize for the wait it's my first day-.." Kayla said as she came over to our table and stopped when she looked up
"You're our server?" I asked
"Laniiii" scooter chuckled
"I'm just asking a question. Cause I remember you worked at that dress shop"
"I quit"
"You quit before or after they fired you for losing my sisters dress on purpose"
"Milaniiii" scooter tried to shut me up but I was just asking a simple question. Kayla rolled her eyes
"I'm not about to do this witchu. You wanna order of not?"
"You gone spit in my food?"
"Ah hell come on" scooter laughed as he stood up "we bout to go don't even worry bout it"
"I'm just asking questions"
"You wildin. Come on"
"I just had to make sure she wasn't tryina poison us. You know some people hold grudges.. obviously"
Scooter grabbed my hand and pulled me behind him as we left out of ihop. When we got in the car he looked at me
"You and that mouth"
"What? You think I'm supposed to like that girl and trust her around my food"
"I ain said you had to like her but we was hungry"
"And I'll starve before I trust her with anything I gotta eat. I prefer Waffle House anyways"
"I bet so" he sighed before starting the car and we left. I looked out of the window while he drove and felt his hand on my thigh. My phone started ringing so I looked down and saw an unknown number calling. I wasn't gonna answer it at first but I just graduated from school a couple of weeks ago so I'm waiting for jobs so I can start a paralegal job. I answered the phone and held it to my ear
"Hello"
"Hi, is this Milani Mitchell?"
"Yes"
"Hi milani. My name is Victoria and I am calling because our office is interested in offering you a job as a family law paralegal"
"Wait, Forreal?" I asked with a smile and she laughed
"Yes forreal. You'll start at 22 an hour plus health and dental insurance, weekends, holidays and birthdays off. How does that sound to you?"
