Chapter 5: Kyle's POV: I tried man!!!
Right after lunch I decided that I didn't want to stay for three more hours at school so I went to my car and decided I was going to Mike's house. He's my best friend since I was practically born. He's the son of my mom's best friend Marissa. I practically live at his place since my mom is a doctor she's working most of the time she doesn't like me to be at home alone so I usually stay over at Mike's.
When I got to his house I turned of my car and got out of it. When I closed the door I heard a basketball bouncing which meant that he was practicing on his backyard. I walked around the house and when I reached the backyard I was welcomed by an almost basketball-hit directly on my face.
"What the fuck man!!! What's your problem?!?!?!" I asked pissed at his little violence act against me.
"What's my problem you want to know?!?! My problem is that you scared the shit out of me, that's my problem." He said coming out from behind the bushes.
"You scared the shit out of me. Pfft.. Pussy!! " I said mocking him and throwing him the basketball with all the force in me praying that it hit him in the face just like what he wanted to do to me. I missed 'cause he dodge the ball.
"Sorry man. Don't take it personal." He apologized taking of his cap, running his hand through his hair and putting the cap back on. "It's your fault man, you we'rent supposed to be here until 3:30 and its 1:37."
"Whatever! I'm going inside" I said turning around to go inside the house through the back door and I knew Mike was following me so I said "Pussy" faking a cough and Mike heard me and punched me hard on my right arm.
"Shut up" he said walking right through the living room to his kitchen He opened the fridge and took a Powerade, drank a little and looked at me. "Want one?" he asked raising his drink so I could take a better look at the flavor he had.
"Na'. Thanks man, I'm fine." I said dropping on his couch and covering my face with one of the three blue decorative pillows that were aligned in row on the brown leather couch.
"'Are you gonna to work today?" he asked plopping down on the couch beside me inhaling deeply in what I took as an act of trying to relax. "I need you to help me with something."
"I don't want to but I have to. Its been to weeks since I last mowed Mrs.Pettinsky's lawn. Plus the Smith couple don't like it when I don't mow their lawn on time, the" I said moaning.
"But cant you go tomorrow or some other day?" He asked, his voice full of hope. He probably wanted me to stay just to help him clean or do something for him. I heard his mom this morning mentioning something about having to repaint the pool or something like that. If I was going to work my ass off on something I was definitely NOT going to do ti for free. Anyways he still owes me.
On his last date his mom's car broke down right after he picked his date at her house. He called me asking me to save him from his misery and do him a huge favor which he promised he was going to pay no matter how long it would take him to do so. I did not like the sound of what I heard next. Five later I was meeting him at the expressway, handing him the keys to my car and leaving me there with his damaged car to wait for the insurance truck arrive and pick me up. That was not the worst part of the night, it all came after that. I gave my car keys to Mike at 9:15 and the truck appeared at 10:45, after that it we arrived at some car thing like 15 minutes later and there I talked to one of the insurance representatives. After 30 minutes discussing with the guy about how is it possible that paying 150 dollars a month for car insurance it does not cover a car replacement until the other car is fixed and how I was gonna sue them I ended up loosing the fight, tired, hungry, angry and worst of all car-less. The idiot told me that there was nothing that he was sorry but couldn't do anything about it. After that I was so pissed that I went to a Walgreens that I saw in the corner just before we arrived at the stupid, worthless, incompetent place. There I had to wait until 1:30 in the morning after Mike left his date at his house. You would not believe how mad I was at him. Even though I knew it wasn't his fault I couldn't help but be mad at him for choosing that specific day to go on a date.
