I couldn't help but sigh as I looked out my window at the auburn leaves on the ground. The mug of tea in my hand was the only thing that felt lively to me at the moment as it burned with heat radiating off of it. Blowing above  the cup before taking a sip, I set it down and pulled my phone out calling my boss.

"Kor'elena...did you get the assignment done that I asked ?"

I ran fingers through my thick blow dried hair before my lips parted with a groggy voice slipping out.

"I'll be on it...you said Lansing is where I have to interview these people right ?"

I remained silent waiting for a response and It took longer then what I expected to get back one but it must have been because he is a person who rather speaks in person, I was going to take the silence as no before he spoke.

"Yes, i'll send you the directions just follow them, you should be there less then 4 hours or so"

Before hearing me groan in annoyance he hung up knowing damn well it was going to come. Especially from little ole fucking me. Getting up I grabbed my bag off my bed as I was already packed and ready with two more and grabbed my mug of tea, purse and phone before walking down stairs, well more like throwing the bags then me walking. I pushed them aside as I made it to the bottom, sighing I felt like my day was going to be stressful as hell.

Making my way to the kitchen, I grabbed a to go coffee mug with a sealer to it and poured my tea inside before setting the mug in the sink and leaving out. My phone vibrated as I grabbed my bags and walked out the door, locking it behind me.

"Kor'elena Mongolia speaking how may I help you..."

Opening the trunk of my beloved black hummer I couldn't do anything but yell into the phone as I hear the sound of my ex boyfriend speak.

"Kor'elena Mongolia speaking how may I help yo-"

"Shut the fuck up Cater...what do you want? "

Throwing my things in the trunk I closed it and hopped in the front, buckling my seat belt in and adjusting somethings. To me I am a beautiful driver that has not been pulled over once because of the sensational beautiful glide of my baby Nedra, yes yes I did name my car..

"Kor are you even listening to me"

By the time my thoughts had simmered down I was already on the road not even noticing I was driving nor started the car. I couldn't help the odd noise that came from the back of my throat in frustration before I spoke to this fucking caca.

"Cater I am trying to drive and I'm fucking busy Dumbie.."

I hit the stirring wheel as I heard him began laughing into the phone, saying how my accent was becoming thicker every time we talked..like the fuck do you want man.

"Okay, okay I just was checking up on my gir-"

"Skkrret, shut the fuck up. I am not not your girl boy nor your friend what do you want I have a four  possible five hour drive that I have to do ?"

Hearing him hum as if he was ignoring I began to count down..
"1, 2, 3-"

"Damn I was thinking crazy, anyway, your my girl till I see a new nigga hitting what I used to hi-"

That's when I ended the call and silenced my phone drowning out everything and began this fucking drive to Lansing.
