"Kylie Jenner, who is expecting to have her baby around February, was seen in her car with sister Khloe in..."
Closing the app, I got up from my bed and threw on a loose shirt, put on my shorts and grabbed my worn out sneakers.
People nowadays make a big deal out of everything
I thought to myself. I fished out my wallet from my bag and headed downstairs where I saw my dad in the living room, reading his newspaper from decades ago.
"Dad, why do you always re-read those? Those are like, ancient"
He lowered his newspaper down and looked at me with a serious face.
"It's like reliving the past. And besides, news of today don't really focus on what's newsworthy anymore dear"
He said while doing air quotes. I just shrugged my shoulders and headed to the front door.
"Where are you going?"
"McDonald's"
Dad didn't say anything else and I opened the door. As I was to step outside, I saw a guy with his hand raised up and looked like he was about to knock.
Raising my eyebrows, I asked, "Who are you?"
He quickly rested his hand on his side and just looked at me
"Are you Quincy?"
I nodded slowly, still confused as to who he is. "Yes. Why?"
"I just came over to drop these off.."
He then showed me three notebooks he was holding and waved them in front of me. I just stared at the notebooks for a while and just looked at the guy holding them.
"Those are mine?"
"Yeah. Sabrina asked me to drop these off at your place because I was gonna pass by anyway"
"Oh. Right, Sab"
I now remember that she borrowed some of my notes before the school year ended. I reached out for my notebooks and grabbed them from him.
"Thanks"
"Sure. No problem"
He turned around to leave and I got back inside to put the notebooks at the counter. Walking back out again, I closed the door behind me and began walking.
As I was about to plug in my earphones, a car suddenly honked and I jumped a bit. Turning around to my side, I saw the guy in his car, I assumed, and had his windows rolled down.
"Where are you headed?"
I looked at him weirdly. "McDonald's"
"Really? I'm headed there too. Hop on, I'll give you a ride"
"No thanks, I'm good"
"C'mon! Do you really want to walk on this hot day?"
I thought about it a bit and I am starting to sweat a bit so I took his offer. I walked over to the passenger side and got in.
There were only a few people once we got there. Just how I like it. I went straight to the counter after I said thanks to that nameless guy and ordered my chicken nuggets and chocolate milkshake.
