CHAPTER 6 - Acceptance

CHAPTER 6 - Acceptance

Trip was scheduled for an evening flight to London but before that, he had one hell of a day.

Trip had a rude awakening when someone banged on his door and kept ringing the doorbell at five in the morning.

Trip was furious and went down to open the door only to find out that it was a very drunk Tiffany. "I need to puke." She kept on saying and then went to the bathroom in the first floor. Trip went to go get a glass of water and brought it to Tiffany but after puking, she passed out.

Trip was getting annoyed now and carried her to his pullout couch-bed. "FML she smells like tequila." He said to himself and put her down gently. "You owe me big time, Tiff." He said and then pulled out his phone and took a picture of Tiffany passed out.

He went up again to get his hoodie and his shorts then went back down to change Tiffany's clothes. "Ugh Tiff, what the heck were you thinking tonight?" He said and undressed her then let her wear his Princeton hoodie and basketball shorts.

After that he went back to his bed and closed his eyes. But suddenly his phone rings. "Hello?" He asked. "Trip, Jess and I just got into a fight." Martin said. Trip checked the clocked and it was way too early for this shit. "Martin, can we talk about it tomorrow?" Trip asked.

But Martin couldn't wait and so he told him everything. It took him about an hour to tell Trip. He kept dozing off as Martin kept on talking. When Martin stopped, Trip hung up directly and went back to sleep.

But he couldn't sleep because Tiffany's phone was ringing. So he had to go downstairs and turn it off. When he finally got back to bed his alarm went off and reminded him for an early morning jog but chose to sleep in due to the lack of sleep he has gotten.

But just as he was finally falling asleep, his phone rings again. "Fuck! Give me a break!" He exclaimed. "Hello?" He answered his phone angrily. "Woke up at the wrong side of the bed?" His mom asked. "What do you want mom? It's too early for phone calls." He said. "Well, I was hoping you could come over and have brunch with me." She said. Trip closed his eyes and slapped his palm to his forehead. "Yeah mom I'll be there. I'll bring Tiffany too." He gave in. "Tiffany? Doesn't she have school today?" She asked. "It's a Saturday, mom." He whined. "Okay, see you at ten!" She said enthusiastically and dropped the call.

Trip slept for about two hours before waking up again to go to his mom's brunch. He was very cranky. He took a shower and put on clothes before going down and wake up Tiffany.

But before he wakes her up, he found Megan's old megaphone and pointed it at Tiffany, then he turned on the alarm sounds making Tiffany squirm in panic while he laughs at her.

Tiffany threw a pillow at him, "Stop that noise!" She exclaimed but Trip wouldn't. "Rise and shine Tiffany! Wouldn't wanna be late to mom's brunch!" He said and turned off the megaphone. "How did I end up here?" She asked scratching her head. "I don't fucking know but you owe me big time. Anyways start dressing up, we have to go to mom's brunch." He said and threw the pillow back at her.

Tiffany groaned as her head ached, "Do you have aspirin?" She asked. "Medicine cabinet in the bathroom." Trip replied and went to the kitchen to eat a banana. "What the hell happened to me last night?" Tiffany asked as her vision is still blurry while heading to the bathroom. "How should I know, Tiff? You knocked on my fucking door at five in the morning." He said in annoyance. Tiffany went to the kitchen and sat on the bar stool and rubbed her head. "Did I? I'm so sorry." She sighed. Trip then shows her the pictures he took and she wasn't happy about it.

"What the fuck, Trip!" She said and slapped his arm. "Hey, at least I took care of you. I don't even know how you got to my building." He said. "Ugh." Tiffany groaned. "Anyways, go take a shower, we have to go to brunch." Trip said. "Can I not go and sleep here instead?" She asked. Trip shook his head, "I only slept for two hours because of you and I took care of you so get your ass in that shower and go to mom's for brunch!" He exclaimed.
