We drive to pull over a garbage truck. "Seriously? he doesn't hear us?" "PULL OVER FUCKTARD!" I shout as I honk the horn. Cap pulls me back. "Sit down." I take a seat. "We're gonna have to get in front of him." "Okay," Buck smirks.
He swerves in front of him. We get out of the truck. "What the hell guys?" The garbage man asks. "You got a guy trapped inside. Inside the compactor." "That's impossible."
"He dialed 911 from inside." "no, I mean that's not possible. We haven't picked any garbage up yet." "ah, shit."
"Wait what?" "you for the wrong truck man she's empty." I get back in. "What's going on?" "it's the wrong truck. I'm thank you. Carry on. Y-you're doing a great job." "GET IN!"
We drive to the actual stop. We hop out the truck. "Did you run the compactor?" "yeah." I pilot he ladder down and climb up. "HELLO? Is anybody down there?" I ask. "Ooh, it's stinks." "Oh, I was wondering when you'd notice. I'll hand you mind after this." he rolls his eyes at me and snickers.
I jump into the trash. "Tiny. Hold up. It's gonna take forever by hand." I start throwing out trash. "You scared to get your hands dirty your Highness?" I say as I throw the trash. "GET TO THROWING!" I shout as he just stands there. "Ok..." I throw it.
"I'm comin in." everyone eventually gets in and starts looking.
"So he was uh sleeping in the dumpster but he had his cell phone?" "They give them to the homeless it's part of the Lifeline program. Keeps them connected to family if they have any." I throw a bag.
"I SEE A FOOT!" I shout. I throw more trash until I see him. "I don't understand how do you survive that kind of pressure?" Buck asks. "Probably feel into this pocket here. Got protected by the chair. sir, can you hear me?"
"It hurts. I can't feel my legs." "it's okay you're gonna be all right okay?" "what's your name?" I ask. "Sam." "You'll be okay Sam."
My phone rings. "Hello?" "hi is this Destiny Morgan?" a lady asks. I inhale sharply. "Yes, this is she." "I'm calling about Aria Martinez." I bite my lip. "What'd she do?" "She got into a fight with one of the teachers and called her a...bitch. And we caught her with marijuana." my mouth drops. "I'll be there." I hang up.
"Hey T you good?" Buck asks. "Oh yea. And you stink." I walk over to Dad. He gags. "Ha ha I have to go get Aria so can you take me?" "Okay okay, another fight?" I nod. "You okay sweetie?" "Yes, can everyone please stop asking me that when something is not okay I will let you know? Know what I some need the ride ill call an Uber." I state. I wall away. "Destiny!"
"D!"
I drag her into the parking lot. "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME! YOU CALLED YOIR TEACHER A BITCH AND GOT CAUGHT WITH MARIJUANA?" I yell. "Don't act like you're my fucking mom or my aunt okay? She's a fucking racist!" "Then let me handle it!" "Oh yea like you care. You're either taking care of Jenna or at work. I just wanted you to pay attention to me. I know Aunt Jenna's sick but... you're all I have." I stop her. "Is that what this is about? Aria. I love you and Jenna. And I know I'm not your mom or Jenna but I still care about you kid."I hug her. "I'm sorry." "Me too. But promise me you won't do this again. Especially since now I have to send you to public school." she nods. "Sorry. I promise." "Good now hand over the leftover weed." she sighs. She pulls it out. "Bitch you better be lucky ion confiscate this shit. We can smoke it at home." she smiles.
We laugh hysterically. "She is such a bitch." I state. "I know right?" there a knock at the door. "Oh shit. Open a window." I get up and open the door and slide out. "Hey, Hen?" "Hey, Athena needs us at some place...are you high?" she asks. "Maaaybe. But ya sure." I state. "ARIA I'LL BE BACK!" "OKAY!" I shut the door.
"Let's bounce."
We walk into the house. "HEN!" she shouts. We go upstairs. "Thena?" "Auntie?"
"Hen! Destiny! Is that you" we walk into a bedroom. We see Athena and some guy handcuffed to the bed.
"What the- the hell?" "bitch!" I say grinning wildly. "Guys um..." we start laughing. I run around the room. I take my phone out. "I gotta show this to my dad and momma!" "Lil girl you betta put that phone away," she warns.
"WOOO!" "Are you done?" "Athena I thought- I don't know what the hell I thought. What...you called 911 for this?" she asks. "911 is the only damn number I memorized. Evruyhung else is in my phone. Which is over there with my belt and the key." I pick up the key. "Oh this key?" "This key! You need the key? You called me over here to wall across the room to get you the key pit of your belt?" she asks. I jingle it. "She wouldn't let me call anyone saved in my phone." "What and have one of your frat boy friends come over here and catch me like this? You must be outta yo mind," she states.
"I was never in a frat." "Okay. Lemme- lemme- lemme just unlock you then." I wall over to them. "Uh uh uh uh uh. Did I ask you to?" my mouth drops. "Auntie."
"Just put it right there where I can get to it." "Seriously?" "mhmm, we good you two can go."
"Mmm. Mkay well damn!" "shiii okay Auntie A. I see you. and so will my mom and dad. Night y'all!" I say as we walk out the door. We start laughing once we out the house. "Lemme see the video!" I show her my phone. She starts cackling.
