"Officer kai? I'm going to need you to step up today and take over for me, i have some serious business i need to attend to, i will be back as soon as possible." I say putting the phone up to my ear as i walk on a road that has become all to familiar too me, My uncle beside me clipping onto my side like a leach.

His whole body itching with excitement to finally get what he wants, what he has been waiting for. He finally might get, with the key word being might..

"Will do chief, enjoy your day off." Officer kai said on the other side of the phone before hanging up and leaving me to the deathly presence of my uncle and the streets of philly.

"So this is the company she owns? I guess it's a start.." He asks, his eyebrow shoots up when he looks at the Feast grill, scans its crummy exterior seeing how horrible and rotten it all looks, as we stop right in front of it.. I snicker as we walk our way into the building,

"Whats so funny?" He asks while trailing in behind me

The door let our presence be known as we walked into the building almost everyone's eyes turned to mine as i searched around the fast food store for her.

Its even better if she isnt here so i dont have to deal with this, maybe uncle will decide to give it all up in the end.... who am i kidding, he is as determined for this will as i am for my case. In other words, neither of us are giving up..

"Welcome to the feast grill what can i get you?" One of the warm and sunny faced workers asked as her smile blinged as bright as a star, her eyes are a crystal blue and her hair is a warm brown, something that compliments her Navy blue short dress uniform,

"Hi, I'm just going to get a black coffee for sit down, we might be here for a while" I say in response, a look of confusion channels on her face,

"Is anything the matter?" She asks me looking between me and my uncle with genuine concern written on her face.

"No, nothing is wrong... im just going to get a beer and if you could point us to our table it would help a lot.." My uncle chimes in smiling in her direction, she nods and walks us over to one of the empty booths in a corner. its Private almost as if it's in Hidden view from the other tables

I sat on one side and my uncle sat beside me, slapping the stacks of papers on the table in front of us, it's like she has no care in the world. It doesn't even matter the fact that tens of different customers are passing by us each minute.

"you really had to bring those along with you? you know it makes me feel a bit uncomfortable with the fact that you carry those around like its a key chain or something." I say, while rolling my eyes at him as he licks his finger to separate the sheets from one another..

"If i didn't how else would she know what she's getting herself into." He asked as if everything he was doing is doing is nothing out of the ordinary.

"Yeah because she's definitely going to be happy when she hears what we have to say, i bet she'll be dying to sign the papers." My sarcastic tone takes over as i place a hand on my forehead in shame,

"Oh come on roman, not everyone can be as heartless and boring as you are. Some people like taking risks every once in a while." My whole head turned to him in shock of what he's just said.
