Your Shadow Crosses Mine

17

"Hey hey" Mia says walking into the back

"Wassup" I smile

I look back down at my feet as I carry on tiring my laces.

"So your back in this apartment huh?"

I choice to move back to my apartment last night.

I mean I've got new locks on the door and hopefully he won't come back.

"If your about to go all security on my ass don't bother" I look up to Mia

"I ain't, just wanted to make sure you was fully ready for this"

Honestly sometimes she acts like a mother to me.

Not that I'm complaining.

Honestly if she didn't act like a mother I wouldn't have my head screwed on.

"Promise I'm fine" I smile

She nods her head as Mandy enters from the front door.

"So I just got off the phone with Micky he wants us in an hour later then we're supposed to"

"Why?" We both asks

"Well apparently the new owner is coming in tonight and he wants us three to be there in time for whoever the new owner is" Mandy explained

More like he wanted someone who was going to suck it up and deal with whatever got thrown at you.

But also someone who won't take any shit.

I'm surprised Micky hasn't fired me yet.

The amount of guys I've ended up not taking their bullshit.

But I'd rather be a bitch then a door mat to walk all over.

"Oh by the way John will be here soon" Mandy smiles

"Yay baby brother" I smile

Mia laughs at the sarcasm in my voice.

"Your not funny" Mandy rolls her eyes

I laugh getting up off the chair.

The door goes once again and John walks in.

"Alright lady's" he grins at us

"Alright Johnny boy" Mia smiles back

Mandy walks up to him as they share a kiss like they've been apart for years.

Me and Mia share a look before returning to looking at the ground.

"We ready to go baby" he asks

"Mhm" Mandy nods

They both walk out my apartment closing the front door behind them.

"It's like watching two hungry dogs go at it" Mia pipes up
