'5:47pm' my phone displayed. 2 new messages. 3 missed calls.
I checked the missed calls, it said- 2 missed calls from Aaron, 1 missed call from Devan.
I checked the messages and it said- 2 new messages from Aaron.
Hey, wanna hang out? I'll pick you up at 6.
A.
I checked the time I received the text, it was 4pm.
Are you dead or something? I'm coming, anyway. See you soon.
A.
I checked the time, it was 5:45pm.
Shit.
I called Aaron.
He picked up the call after three rings.
"So, you alive?" he asked casually.
"Yes, I am, but, I cannot go out." I answered.
"What? Why? I am already on my way," he said.
"I am sorry, but, I can't. And are you talking and driving at the same time?" I asked.
"Yes I am, why?" he asked.
"You are going to die Aaron, go back home. Drive safe," I stated.
"Hold on," he paused, "yeah, so?" he finished.
"What did you do?" I asked.
"Stopped the car," he answered.
"Good Boy," I sang.
"No, I am not," he snapped.
"Okay, you don't have to prove it Mr. Bad Boy," I said.
"Anyways, you are not coming, are you?" he asked serious.
"No," I stated.
"You are dumping me?" he asked.
"No," I said. I really wanted to go though.
"Let's go then, for just 30 minutes?" he asked.
"Fine, I'll call you back after 5 minutes, to tell you if I am coming or not, okay?" I asked.
"I'll be waiting to hear a 'yes' from you Melissa," he said.
I hung up.
"Mom?" I said, walking towards her room.
"Yes?" she said.
I walked inside her room, she was sitting on her bed and was talking with Shawn, who was in the couch.
"Can I go out? For 30 minutes?" I asked.
"Yeah sure, you can, why just 30 minutes?" she asked, "but, take Shawn with you." She finished.
What? No way.
"Why Shawn? I can take Jay-Jay with me, if you want," I stated.
