"I promise you're going to love the scenery. I know you don't like parties with too many people, it's lowkey but it's known" Ryan told me as we made our last stop into a nearby McDonald's. I only just get cheese burgers, fries and a medium caramel frappe with extra caramel.

"It sounds tempting but I have to go to this other interview. Im trying to become a bartender at a club called Neptune's Lounge" I told her as I scrolled on my phone.

"That's the lounge I'm talking about! That's crazy, I didn't know you applied there. I know you're going to do great on the interview, you know how to talk to people" She complimented me as I smiled like a kid in the candy store.

"Aww thanks bestie!" I told her in a ratchet voice and she made a face at me. We ordered our food in the driveway and drove up to the window to pay.

"So what's going on with the family reunion? I remember you was talking about it" She asked me.

"Oh yeah it was postponed because my father and mother got into a big argument and he called the whole shit off. I tried to talk to him to let him know he shouldn't let her get to him but he's stubborn as shit so that didn't go anywhere" I explained to her.

"Damn I wish they didn't argue so much.. it's starting to take away his joy. I'm sorry if I'm being intrusive " She told me as she handed me my food and frappe.

"No it's fine, I agree with you. I just wish he would get his shit together. He's a good man and a great father and my mother is just jealous it seems like" I told her truthfully.

"Is it sad that I agree with you? Because it's literally nothing else I could think of but jealousy of you and your father's relationship" She agreed with me. We stayed in a parking lot for a few minutes to just talk and eat.

"So, on a happier topic. Connor's after school teacher is kind of cute, right?" She asked me as she sipped on her sprite. I was twirling around the caramel into the frappe more so it can go all the way to the bottom.

"Brent? Yeah he is.. I didn't even tell you how it went last week" I told her. She took sips of her drink and stared at me with a smile.

"Ohh shit, how was it? Y'all vibing or still filling each other out?" She asked.

"A little bit of both. He's very calm and down to earth like we said. I told him we should chill again and he agreed" I said. At this point, I finished my food and wiped my hands with some napkins cause this salt be too much sometimes.

"That's good! I'm glad he isn't a weirdo, okayy friend let me find out" She said with a smile.

"Chilee find out what? We still getting to know each other, that's all" I said and rolled her eyes playfully.

"Listen I know my best friend and I can tell you in about two or three weeks you're going to tell me you feeling him, watch" She said as she turned on the car and started backing up out the parking lot.

I got out the shower and grabbed a towel off the rack for me to put around myself. I walked back into my room and seen Talia with her black boy shorts and a Partynextdoor oversized t shirt.

"You made my legs hurt, now I have to take an Uber to work" She said as she fake mugged me. I chuckled and looked in my journal to look at some rhymes I had written down.

"What you writing down?" She asked me, noticing me looking down.

"Just some lyrics... something I been writing for a about a week now" I answered her. She held me around my shoulders and kissed my cheek.
