Second to last day at this shitty ass establishment. second to last day and i'm mad at Alex.
"he didn't even say bye to me when he left today" i complained to bestie
"bro it's not that serious"
"ik but like i need him to be more assertive"
"like dom style or"
i sighed "i just need to know if he wants me or not so i can see if i should make my move or not"
"literally said that the water incident wasn't the last time he would make you choke so i'm pretty sure he wants you"
"omg shut up not so loud" we were not even closing yet. the store closes in 45 minutes so we still had a ways to go. both of us on bagging was a good thing. bestie was the best bagger around.
"hey could both of you come to the back real quick?" one of the workers yelled. we were really slow so we went to the back. "so this set of lights isn't working" they said.
"have you tried turning on and off the control?" i asked.
"no"
"well try that then if you need me call me" i said. we headed back
"you want him to control you don't you" bestie whispered in my ear
"BRO SHUT UP NOT HERE" i yelled at bestie. we still had a ways to go with stocking and cleaning and the store was closing in about five minutes.
"hey you're doing ice cream tonight for closing" i told bestie
"damn" he said
the last hour should have gone by smoothly if not for him messing up ice cream.
"AH I FORGOT TO TURN OFF THE SECRET BUTTONS!!" bestie screamed
i rushed over "WHAT DID YOU DO?"
"NOOO THE WATER AND LEFTOVER ICE CREAM ARE FREEZING"
"$10 if you drink it"
"THIS IS SERIIUS WHAT IF IT BREAKS"
"you're fine" i assured him " i'll just call alex"
"oooooooooo"
"shut up"
* "hey Alex"
"hey queen"
"yea so we may or may not have fucked up the ice cream machine"
"what happened"
"so the secret buttons weren't shut off so it started to make ice cream with rhe left over mix and the water we poured in instead of jsut flushing out and now nothings coming out"
"just take out the blade and you should be fine"
"alright thanks"
"alwight love you" and he hung up immediately after
we took his advice and everything went smoothly after. in our cars me and my bestie were spilling shit like always.
"Hey if i tell you something will you promis not to get mad?" he asked
skeptical, i said "what is it"
"so i might have done the ice cream thing on purpose so you would have to talk to him"
"I FUCKING KNEW IT FUCK YOU TOYING WITH MY FUCKING FEELINGS LKKE THAT" bestie was dying laughing in his car
"hey i'm just helping the needy" he said
"oh wow thanks" i said sarcastically
"so... tmr is your last day. after two years your cfa journey is over at this location. now you don't gotta worry abt Derricks toxicity"
"ik. wait do you remember Ron?"
"the old owner"
"yea the one who called you big daddy all the time"
"EWW i forgot abt that. you want to call Alex that don't you" he winked
"ok fuck off"
"bro he's always on your mind these days"
"yea but i wanna be one something else"
bestie was abt to say something else but Cardi B started to play
"wait shut up"
"I JUST WANNA BREAK UP ALL YA SHIT!" we sang in unison "CALL YA MOMMA TELL HER SHE RAISED A BITCH"
after the song it was time to call it a night and mentally prepare for my last day.
