I get home and my mother and sister are in the living room watching White Chicks.
"Jess is that you?" I hear my mom ask.
I close the door, lock it, and put my keys in the key bowl. "And if it's not I ask?"
"I will finally start taking your nagging seriously" my mom says.
I laugh knowing that she's referring to how every time she leaves the door unlocked I lecture her on how she's putting herself and others in danger.
I walk down the hall, through the kitchen and into the living room where my mother and sister are. I sit on the couch across from them and face the television. My sister turns the t/v off and her and my mother begin bouncing up and down on the couch like squirrels on drugs. "What's wrong with you guys?" I ask getting annoyed with the bouncing.
"I heard you gots a hot study date!" my big sister Kimberly said.
"It's not a date " I say.
My mom says something next, "He just randomly asked you to tutor him?"
I told them the whole story, from our old art teacher winning the lottery & saying Fuck you guys, I have money who needs this shity job, to him hugging me goodbye.
"So... This Tiffany... disrespected you.. in front of everyone?" Kimberly asks.
"Yes... technically... But I should've kept quiet. I deserved it..."
"Are you insane. Freedom of speech is granted here. Welcome to America sweetheart. Do I need to come up to that public school & kick some public slut ass?!"
"Kimberly!" my mom chokes out through laughs. "Watch your mouth." She swats Kimberly's hand. Wow! Way to discipline mom. *Note the sarcasm *
"Well you didn't say no, so I'll take that as a yes. " Kimberly says grinning.
"No! No! No! One you can't fight --" she cuts me off.
"But I can slap a hoe!"
"Kimberly! Language!" mom says chuckling.
Kimberly looks at my mom with a smirk. "English dear mother. Have you not yet mastered it?" she says in her best innocent voice.
Mom chuckles "Alright smart ass."
"Like I was saying, one you can't fight and two it doesn't matter. The teacher as well as Taylor stuck up for me."
"But I want to slap her!" Kimmy whines. "It's not like I can get suspended or something. I don't even go there... Or to public school at all."
"No Kimmy." I say sternly since my mom's not going to say anything.
"Baby, are you sure he's not trying to play some sick joke on you? I mean he did just ask for a tutor out of the blue." mom asks looking skeptical.
I didn't think about that. But his beautiful green eyes were so innocent. "No mommy, finals are coming up, so he probably really needs help. I'm more than happy to help a sexy person in need. "
"Okay, you've NEVER described a guy as sexy. This I have to see!" Kimmy shrieks. "Do you have a picture of him?"
"No? I'm not a stalker. This is the first time we've ever spoken. ... like ever."
"And he basically, asked you out?!" I can tell Kimmy's getting excited, I don't usually oogle guys or refer to them as anything more than okay.
"No Kimmy. Calm down he asked for a tutor not a hot date. Speaking of -what time is it? I'm supposed to be at his house at four thirty."
