the worst guy

chapter 5

i wanted to see naomi. no, i didn't like her like that. she just made me feel sane. i enjoyed being in her presence. even though we have never had a full conversation before, i still liked talking to her. i only knew her for 2 days. marcus and chance said she was mean and uptight, and they were probably right. i mean, if you saw her, you would think she would curse you out if you said the wrong thing to her. part of that scares me but also intrigued me to know more about her.

i drive to 7/11, making a turn and parking in front of the store. i try to get a look inside before i go in, just to see if she's there. the store looks closed, the lights are still on but it was only one car here. someone has to be in there.

i saw a woman walking with a coat over her head, as it started to rain. i tried to make out their face, but they were walking at a quick pace. whoever it was, they shouldn't be walking home in the rain. what if it was naomi? i honked my horn, as the person looked up. turns out, it was an old woman. she probably cursed at me because she had a mad look on her face before she started back walking. oops, my bad.

i stayed parked in the parking lot, trying to look for signs of life in the 7/11.

a few seconds later, the lights went off. a bald man, well almost bald, walked out. the boss. he looked irritated, as if he was upset with someone. he noticed the rain and almost had a fit. i could make out the words from his mouth, "shit" he said. i didn't want to laugh at him, but he deserved it. the rain started to get harder, so i turned on my windshield wipers, to get a good look at the boss. he hurriedly ran to his car, almost slipping and falling, and got in his car. he drove off a second later. i guess the store is closed now. so much for seeing naomi, or getting food.

i backed out of the parking lot, and decided to go to in-and-out burger. they're always open, 24/7. i went to the drive thru and ordered 4 burgers with a fry and a drink.

"thank you." i said to the worker, as they handed me my bag of food. i set the bag in the passengers seat and the drink in the car cupholder.

the worker said, "you're welcome." i parked in the parking lot of in-and-out burger, while the rain was pouring down. it must be a storm coming, because i've never seen it rain like this before. i hate rain. i hurriedly took a burger out of the bag while stuffing fries in my mouth. i was hungry as fuck. i unwrapped the burger and took a huge bite. i finished the burger in about 4 minutes, i was just that hungry. i looked at the time, it's 3am. i started to drive back home, while the rain was pouring down. it started to thunder a bit, while lightning shined the sky. i hurriedly tried to get home, without wrecking or skiding off the roads.

i made it in about 10 minutes, pulling into the driveway. the rain was still coming down hard. i took the key out of the ignition and got out, sprinting towards the door with the bag of food, and opening the door with the house key.

my clothes got wet. just from that short distance. i groaned loudly. "i got food you-" i saw marcus and chance sprawled on the couch and floor, asleep. well, so much for that food run. i walked over to the fridge, that was basically empty and put the bag in there.

i examined the house again. it was a mess. i grabbed a black trash bag and decided to pick up the crap that was left astrawn in my house. that's the last time i'll ever have a party. i ended up filling about 3 trash bags. i was exhausted. i plopped down on the couch.

as soon as i sat down, i heard a knock on the door.

who would be here at my house at 3am in the morning? might have been someone who left their jacket or something at the party.

i went to the door and opened it.

i was in shock as naomi and her daughter were standing right in front of me.
