Twenty six

"Hey I heard what happened at the races the other night. How bad is it?" Billie asked while walking into the bedroom where Aliza was smoking.
    "It's just a broken radiator hose." Aliza spoke while Billie removed her own shoes and set them in the closet.
    "That's good Minnie, at least you won't need to blow so much money. I was thinking... you and I go back to Los Angeles for a few days, just to get away from New York for a little while."
    "Yeah. That sounds fine." Aliza spoke up, now scooting closer to Billie.   
    "Aliza I miss you."
"What do you mean Billie? I'm right here." Aliza was confused.
     "No like I mean. I miss you. I miss babying you, and spoiling you. I'm sorry I fucked your head up okay? I'm so sorry. I just miss when you accepted my love, and allowed me to take care of you. You don't even let me cook for you anymore."
    Aliza closed her eyes and covered her face with the palms of her hands.
   "I'm sorry Billie. But I'm tired of being treated like a baby. I'm 21 years old now, I'm a grown woman, everyone treats me like I'm still 17 and it's so fucking weird."
"I don't want to treat you like a baby, I want to give you affection, and I want you to know that I so deeply love you." Billie was being so sincere. She placed a kiss on Aliza's hand and looked into her eyes.
"Okay I'm going to be so honest Bil... I miss being babied by only you."
That brought a smile onto Billie's face.
The next few days was filled with fighting, loving, chaos and laughter.
    What a weird combination. But it's true.
Everything happens for a reason right?
      "I'm heading out." Aliza said while walking up to Billie and kissing her lips but Billie wasn't letting her go so easily.
    "I'm gonna come with you. There's a lot of crazy shit happening." Billie said, standing up and following behind the younger girl.
     "Okay. I'm not racing tonight. I just want to watch." Aliza spoke while Billie handed her the keys.
     "That's fine. Cmon." Billie grabbed Aliza's by her hand and they walked out to the Supra.
They found themselves at the car scene.
Multiple groups of JDM cars lined up, music bumping, people racing, smoking, drinking, shouting, betting on cars, etc.
"Hey I'm gonna go over here and say hi." Aliza smiled, walking away from Billie.
"What's up midget? Racing tonight?" A man asked while getting out of his white integra.
"No, not tonight. Maybe next weekend. Here's the rest of the money I owed you. Thanks for the parts." Aliza handed the man a stack of money secured by a rubber band.
"Keep it. I was thinking... wait where's your girl?"
"Over by my car." Aliza responded.
"Bring her over here before I talk." He spoke, watching Aliza turn in her heel and run up to Billie.
"What's up?" Billie asked while leaning against his car.
"The Supra up for sale?"
Aliza's eyes darted to Billie who stood straight and cleared her throat.
"No. You kidding? That's her baby." Billie laughed, shoving the keys into her pocket.
"Oh cmon. I'll give 20 grand right now."
"I said no. It's not up for debate. End of discussion."
The two girls walked away and went back to sitting in the Supra, watching people gather around the white integra.
"We're leaving. Let's go Aliza." Billie jumped in the driver seat of Aliza's car and started it up.
Aliza climbed into the car and looked over at the crowd.
"They're plotting. You aren't allowed here alone at all." Billie spoke, driving away from the scene.
