Not AGAIN -__-

Three weeks went by and my life became a routine. Weekdays: School, Work, Bubble Bath, Homework, then Sleep. Weekend: Work, Hang out, Homework, the Sleep. The ‘creepy’ hasn’t stopped either because on occasion, I saw a black car, black tinted window outside my job and sometimes I think few houses down from my job. I could be exaggerating cause that car could be some businessman’s car who only worked a couple blocks down from my job. I never knew when the car showed up, but it was only there at night for sure. And when I saw that similar black car outside my house or a few houses down, it could be someone’s who lived near me or some middle aged woman’s secret lover. Who knows, but creepy.

Oldly enough, Justine still hasn’t mentioned anything about the idea of Cole and me. I was almost starting to believe that she finally gave up on that idea. Almost. Today Saturday, and now I have a day off from The Dark Mug so of course I’m spending my time with my friends and pure relaxation. We all decided to convene at Justine’s house since her mother was gone on a business conference till Monday. Justine’s parents got divorced just before our freshman year. Her father lives far away in Florida with his new girlfriend. They hardly communicate. She really went through it back then. She held it all in and felt like she had no one to talk to. I could understand her not talking to me and Nay since we had just met her a couple months before that, but she didn’t even talk to her long term bestfriend Rachel. Throughout the beginning of 9th grade she just kept it all in and also became somewhat of a rebel and trying to get us all in mix of a mess. Nay and I stole once or twice, but we weren’t really criminals. So of course we all didn’t really comply, so we had an intervention and surprisingly enough, she really broke down and cried it all out, and we were there for her soothingly. Her mother eventually found out and they had a long talk and their relationship became better. After that day we really all felt closer to eachother. I surely felt a stronger bond with Rachel and Justine. Although it was just last year, it felt like years ago that it all happened.

“So I’m like really bored and I was thinking that maybe we should have a party” Justine said as she plopped down on the couch next to Nay handing her a bottle of water and a red koolaid packet flavor. “Tonight”

“Tonight, like now?” I asked skeptically

“Yeah, it won’t be themed like the many parties the twins hold, buhh heyy why not?”

“But how are we going to get a lot of people here on such short notice” Rachel voiced my own thoughts

“Facebook of course” Justine replied

“But how are YOU going to clean up the mess that’s for sure going to be left” Nay voiced another thought of mine

“Well gee thanks Nay, count on you to be concerned about how hard the cleaning is going to be for me” Justine replied sarcastically as we all giggled

“BUT, to ease your worried mind, y’all know my dad’s guilt money he puts in my account, well I have a lot of it and I was thinking I’ll hire a cleaning crew Sunday and it’ll all be finished before my mom  returns Monday” she grinned “Great plan huh?”

“Well yeah, I guess, but what if someone breaks something? Are there going to be drinks? If so how are we going to get them?” I voiced all my skepticism

“Lawd guys ! Do y’all ever stop doubting?” she closed her eyes rubbing her temple “I’ve got it all covered. We’ll get Ryan Baker’s lonely low life old ass to buy the drinks on account that he loves a good party and free drinks himself. As for the valuable goods, I’m locking them in the upstairs closet!” she smiled
