I drive home. It was pretty late. I stopped at a red light, super close to Dinah's house. I check the time on my phone, 11:48pm, almost midnight.
I arrive at her place. I creeped up the walk way on to the front door. I grabbed the keys out of my purse and slowly open the door. The door slowly creaks open. I tip toe in only to be startled by the sight of my tall, Polynesian partner, Dinah.
"Why are you home so late, Norm'?" She questions. I sigh. I want to be honest with her, but that isn't the right time considering it's a late cold night. "I was talking to Kehlani about the trial for Perrie. I helped her with Ally's paperwork and then it got late. Then, I drove Leigh-Ann home." I semi lied. She seems to believe it and I, without her noticing, thank God, putting my palms together.
"Oh okay." She said, taking my coat and my sweater underneath, revealing my blue shirt. "I'll be heading to bed, I've got a long day of meetings tomorrow." She told me yawning and waving to me walking up the stairs. I nod and wave back. I remove my shoes and follow her upstairs.
I do my nightly routine. I then go to Dinah's room and fall asleep in her arms.
In a meeting Dinah's pov
"We think it would great for you girls to perform songs that are less talked about. Like less popular songs, even unpublished songs." One of the men in the meetings tell me. For one, why did they send us to different rooms? Oh well. "I guess, but we also have school. It has to either be in time frames where there's no school or on weekends." I explained the man. His name tag read, Jake Brice. I'll just call him Mr.Brice.
"Understandable Ms. Hansen, we have a show you can play. When are you and the girls free?" Mr. Brice asks me. I think for a second because we always talk about our plans.
"Well, this Wednesday. After school we don't have nothing to do but homework so we could play a show, say 7:30?" I reply, after a 15 second think. He looks through his phone then popped his head up. "That's perfect, Dinah. You just get out your outfits and pick the song and call us tomorrow. That's all for today. Your band mates are already done. See you Mrs. Hansen." He says then his team starts to pack up. I grabbed my stuff and me and the girls left.
We finally were done with all our meetings. We decided to go to Camila's. She is one of the youngest so she still lives with her parents.
"Hi Mrs. Cabello." We all great her mom as we step in the kitchen. She was making a turkey. "Are you chica's ready for Thanksgiving tomorrow?" She asks, putting the turkey in the oven. We all nod. "Why are you cooking today then, Mrs. Cabello?" My girlfriend questioned. "Well Normani I have to work tomorrow. I get off about 4pm so I can get ready. 'Mila also has to get the drinks because I'm too exhausted to go and she her lazy butt won't go." She explains, slapping her daughter's arm after her last sentence. We all laugh and then we hear the door. It was Mr. Estrabao. We all say hello as he plops on the couch exhausted from work from the looks of it. He waves back. After helping and talking some more, we go home. 'Mani decided to come back to my place. That was good, I had to tell her something important that will change something huge.
"Normani?" I asked as she was removing her making with some towelettes. She hums as she still removes the rest of her makeup. "Last night you lied. You were with Leigh-Ann the entire time!" I exclaimed looking for proof in my phone.
"What do you mean?" She questions. I rolled my eyes by her acting so stupid. I pull up the pictures I got from some one. It was her and Leigh- Ann kissing. I showed it to her and she was dumbfounded.
"Gotcha!"
New chap. I changed up the parent names since she had two last names. Bye and happy early turkey day!
