I was a bit disappointed when I woke up and still no word from Onika. I was hoping she got home safe, but I'm pretty sure she did. I decided to brush it off since we weren't more than "friends". I grab a cup of coffee to start my day off. I took a quick sip then headed to my closet to get dressed for the day.

I decided on something chill since I'd be helping sorting books out today. I had on blue jeans, a white crop top, and .... I put my hair in a messy bun feeling satisfied.

I drank the rest of my coffee starting my car up. I got a call before I could pull off. It was an unknown number so I didn't answer it but they called again forcing me to pick up.

"Hello?", I listen for a response. "Giselle?", she says. It was definitely Onika on the other end.

"Onika, you finally decided to call me", I say bitterly.

"I apologize for that, but I need you to do me a huge favor", I appreciated that and asked what the favor was.

"Could you please come pick me up? I got a flat tire and the nearest tow truck won't be here until 10", I looked at my watch that read 8:35.

"Where are you?", she wasn't too far from me. The bigger question is where her husband was. "I'll be on the way, get in the car and lock your doors", she agreed and thanked me before I hung up.

I leave the driveway and headed to Onika.

I see her car barely off the highway, which was dangerous. Luckily no one was speeding and accidentally hit her.

I pull behind her, turning my emergency lights on and locking my door behind me.

I tap her window and she unlocks it to get out.

"Thanks for coming", she hugs me. "You welcome, please tell me you have a spare?", she showed me the spare in the trunk so I grabbed my wrench and jack out of the car.

These two things kept me sane since I burned my tires more than three times a month from racing.

"It's safer if you wait in my car, I'll be done in a few minutes", I gave her my keys. I started to change the tire so we could get to the church on time.

I finished and gave Onika her keys. "Thank you so much Giselle", she hugged me again and smiled.

I liked these little hugs from her.

"You welcome. I'll see you at church and drive carefully" she waved as I took off. I couldn't follow her since she probably drove awfully slower than me. It took me no time to get to the church so I waited for her here.

After what felt like an hour Onika showed up. I locked my doors waiting on her to get out of the car.

I checked my time as she walked up on me.

"Dramatic ass", she sassed me. "You too slow ma", I winked causing her to laugh.

"Maybe you just need to slow down", she rolled her eyes.

"Didn't you just have a flat tire?", I sass back and she laughs nudging my shoulder.

"Wow", I rubbed my shoulder to make her feel bad.

"Come on lil girl", so she wanted to go there.

"We CAN take it there Onika", I warned. She was playing with fire.

"I'd rather not right now, maybe later", she got serious as we got in the church.

That was the better option, I couldn't speak on the awful thoughts I've had of Onika in God's house.
