||•The accident•||

"Hey Furry," I heard Tee greet Ferry from my room. He made it pretty clear yesterday that I should  be ready by the time he's in my house. Oops. I just woke up. Luckily I don't take years in showers. I was done in five and got dressed in five.

"Hey baby, how are you?" Ferry greeted him back. I was already on my way down.

"Gucci, bouta good to work and drop Princess on the way. What about you, how are you doing?"

"I'm great, about to leave soon for uni."

"That's okay. Princess hurry up. I told you I should find you ready yesterday." He takes me to work on Fridays and picks me up after.

"N*gga chill. I'm right here," I rolled my eyes. My dearest sister decided to put her two cents where it wasn't wanted.

"She didn't get enough sleep in the am." Great. Now He will figure it out I was thinking about him all morning.

"Is that so, I wonder why." He smirked. Oh God, he's so sexy when he smirks. I instantly shook my head because not today.

"Fur, where's the Maker?" I changed the subject. But I really wanted to know where these people were. It was too early for personal thoughts.

"Oh mum called, she said the doctor asked them to stay the night for some more check ups." She looked worried. I was worried too.

"They didn't come back home last night?! Is it that serious?" It got to be. Why would the doctor asked them to stay the night. I hope it's my paranoia and there is nothing to worry about.

"Nah and mum said nothing to worry about. You kids go to work." Then again it's Ferry. She always want to put a big sister's act.

"I'll just text mum on the way. Take care Snail." I teased her. I shut the door behind us.

I got in Tee's car. Smelled like him. Pleasant.
"How was your sleep, Princess?" I was thinking about you all morning. How I wanted to tear your clothes off. How I just wanted you.

"You're smiling like an idiot." He mocked me.

"Shut up assh*le, if you must know, I slept good." I couldn't help but smile to myself more. I don't know what was more amusing. The fact that I'm lying to my best friend that can read me like book. Or convincing myself I 'saved it' by lying.

"Liar, text your mum before you forget." I pulled out my phone and decided to annoy him and text out loud.

"Hey Makers, just checking up on how y'all going. I'll see y'all after work. Kisses. Send."

"You're actually annoying. Get out of my car. And should I pick you up usual time or you having dinner with Nick?"

"He's shouting out all the dinners. Since I help him get Saman... oh did I mention, Sam was back?"

That's when I realised I messed up big time. Not telling him. He deserved to know. Maybe he can finally get an explanation.

"Aargh, I'm sorry man. I should've told you straight away." Terrible friend, check.

"It's okay Princess." he reassured me. I nodded and watched him drive pass. Here I come customers that don't appreciate me.

Customers are sometimes annoying. One lady wouldn't let me serve her. Because she wanted someone else to serve her. "I'm sorry ma'am, two of our staff are on break. It's just me."

"I don't want to be serve...by someone like you?" I don't understand why customers do this. Just order. Eat your food. And be on your way. How hard can that be.

"I'm sorry I don't follow, what do you mean someone like...oh you don't want me serving you because I'm black?" As much as I don't like racists, I wouldn't poison them. Let alone risk my job. But I don't tolerate that behaviour.

"Like she said, she's the only staff available. If you don't want her to serve you, you either wait for the other staff because I can't serve you considering the fact that I'm just like her or you can kindly leave." My manger stepped in.

*****
I told Nick about the situation that had happened when he was on his break. He was mad and wished he was there to put the lady in her spot. I told him the manager handled it. Nick is very protective of me. He's like a brother to me and I'm lucky to have him in my life.

"Anyways, I forgot to mention, Sam is Tee's ex." I forked meat into my mouth followed by salad. Then I drank orange juice. I'm such a pig. But oh well.

"I feel like I dogged a homie. I definitely dogged a homie." He was feeling so bad.

"Technically, you didn't know. Also they've broken up ages ago. But just tell him that you've smashed his ex. Instead of him finding it out from me." Again it was my fault. Why don't I tell people things in time. What is wrong with me.

I texted Tee to come pick me up after dinner. I can't wait to go pass out in my lovely bed. Nick walked me to the car park. We waited for about five minutes.

Tee and Nick did their hand shake. Nick asked him if they could talk sometimes this week and they both agreed on Monday.

"Thank you for dinner. Love you."
"Love you too," he waved at us.

The silence was killing me. It's been ten minutes driving in silence. I was trying to figure out if he was still mad at me.

"So are you like mad at me or what?" Somebody had to break the silence. And that somebody had to be me of course.

"Nah I ain't mad at you Princess."

When he realised I wasn't responding, he stopped the car. He took a deep breath then turned to face me. "I'm really not mad at you. I just have a lot on my mind. Come here." He kissed my forehead.

His lips left my forehead. He put the car on drive after saying, "let's go home."

There was traffic on our street. It usually doesn't happen. It turned out there was an accident. Tee had to take the other way. Soon as we got home. There were policemen at our house.

Ferry was crying. Whatever that was going on wasn't good news. We got out of the car. Ferry ran towards us. "What's wrong Fur?" I asked her.

"Mum and dad had an accident. On their way home from the hospital. They've been rushed to the hospital. We gotta go. We have to go. Let's go." My heart dropped.

Everything started to blur out. First the people then the trees. Next thing I knew, it was black.
