*December 19, 1968*

I wake up about 6:30 in the morning and get dressed to go get tymere, I go to pick him up in my brand new 1968 mustang that I just got for my 17th birthday about a week ago. It's a rose red with a black strip on the hood of the car.

I pull up to tymere house and honk the horn to let him know in there and I wait for about 4 min for him to come out

"Bout time you came out" I told him using sarcasm

"In my defense, I was sleeping with the television on so yup there's my excuse"

" Haha okay"

"Beautiful car you got there Joseph" Tymere says to me whenever he walks over to my car

"Thanks man, been waiting for a while for one of these.."

"How much engine power does it have?"tymere asked with a little smirk on his face

"335 horse power but with actual horse power around 410" I tell tymere trying to act cool

"Hahaha shut up man!" Tymere gets excited and hops in "let's go for a ride!"

As tymere shuts the door I start the car and roll down the windows and start driving.

"So where you wanna go bro?" I asked Tymere

"You wanna go eat first?"tymere asked me

"Sure man, got any recommendations?"

"Yeah, I got a good one, it's my favorite restaurant, Ann's in n out"

"Oh yeah I know where that's at"

We drive for about 25 minutes before getting to the restaurant. It's a small building, not very popular but they say they have the best burger's and root beer floats in the city. Me and ty both order the same burger and both get the best root beer floats in town.

After we are done eating I pay and tymere leaves a tip. We get back in the car and head back to my place. By the time we were half way back to my house tymere decided that we should go see a movie. So I get in a different road and we arrive at the theater and buy the tickets.

"Wow a 1hr and 57 min movie.. hope it's worth it.." tymere says as we start to laugh

We sit in our seats and we watch some of the previews. Most of them were short little cartoons but they were still funny. Movie starts and they tell us no talking during the movie.

*1hr and 57min. Later..*

"Man that movie sucked" tymere says as he drops his ticket on the ground

"Yeah worst movie for $5"

We get in my car and sit there for a minute and then I start the car and we get going.
I drive 38 minutes to go drop tymere off at his house. When we arrive at his house I ask him if I should pick him up at the same time tomorrow.

"Nah just pick me up at 7:30 pm tomorrow man, I gotta clean up and stuff. I should be done and getting ready by 7:25 pm."

"Alright man I'll catch you later"

I roll up the windows and back up out of the drive way and drive back to my place.

I get into my house and my parents are already asleep and I quietly turned on the television and watch whatever's on at this time.

As in thinking to myself I think about if I have any home work to do because I feel like I forgot to do something...

"Aw man I forgot to tell tymere about what happened yesterday!" I said to myself as I got a little frustrated.

I turn off the television and get ready for bed.

"It's fine it's nothing to worry about.." I tell myself before laying down

I pull the blanket over my shoulder and lay down close my eyes and slowly fall asleep.
