Dennis? How?
I'm rendered speechless

"How the f**k did you get here?!" I ask having the most horrifying expression on  my face

"On an airplane then on a cab and finally I arrived here" she explains mocking my question

dennis is the least person on this planet I had expected to see, is she crazy,
She hasn't changed
Gosh! Always so insane
How can she travel all the way from Ohio just to see me ?
No I hope not
Dennis was one hell of a drama , I wasn't about to allow such a drama into my life

Just then there's another knock at the door
Great! Nikky

I ignore Dennis and I stand up to get the door, just like I expected it was nikky

"Hey, i'm sorry i took so long , the traffic jam was annoying , and  I stopped by the cookie store to get you some chocolate cookies Richard told me you liked them, I ordered pizza too , it should be here in 20mins" nikky blabbed.

The last thing I want is to be in the same house with two crazy women,
Yeah its my fault , I called nikky over
But I didn't know Dennis would travel all the way from Ohio to Chicago
Shit
"Uhm nikky I'm sorry to have called you out stressing you..."

"No not at all, I love that you invited me, I'm honoured" nikky says cutting short

"What I mean is, i wouldn't be needing your company anymore " I explain in one breath

"Wh..a.t! I mean, did I do something wrong?? I'm really sorry I'm late, please" nikky pleads

"Yeah you should leave honey , he already has company" dennis says, I turn to see her standing besides me

Oh my God, crazy bitch! things are gonna get worst.

Why did dennis have to come out, now they would both begin a mortal combat

"Get inside!" I bark to dennis but she doesn't flinch, she remains just where she is ,

"Did you ask me to leave because of this trash?" Nikky says glaring at dennis

If her eyes were a weapon, she'd reap her apart without a second thought .

"Hey don't you go calling me trash, you're the bigger trash, begging my boyfriend shamelessly is something trashy" Dennis blasts

Her boyfriend? Is she sick?
Is that what she thought? That she could find her way back into my life? No not happening.

I turn my attention to both women who were now focused on each other, giving a whole piece of their mind ,
I slowly step inside pick up my car key from the sofa which I had laid on , I step back outside, they're still so engrossed with each other , I lock my  door and shove the my key in my pocket, they both turn to stare at me as if just realising that I had been previously standing next to them, I ignore them

"Baby where're are you off to?" Dennis asks

I pass them without sparing them a glance ,
  I hop into my car and drive off ,

Gosh ! My life is so complicated.

Its 9pm and I don't know where I'm going to , I should hang out with Richie,
I dial his number
"Hey kiddo!" Richie says excitedly into the phone, there's so much noise in the background I can barely hear him,

"Are you home? I'm going over to your place , I might as well sleep over, I've got some kinda situation at my place" I explain,

the noise in the background seems to die down, I guess he might left wherever he had been,

"Sorry man, I'm not home, i'm at red's , today is her birthday , you remember? I'll be here all night, you should get your ass down here though, she's been asking about you" Richie says

"No thanks, I'm not in the mood" I say wearily

" you're fucked up kiddo, you sound like you just got dumped!" Richie says excitedly, I'm sure he enjoys the sound of my voice , he was that much of an ass

"But if you really don't wanna come down here, you still have my spare key, go over to my place, but I should warn you , I ain't got food, so grab something on your way , I plan on restocking this week. I'll be back by sun rise" Richie informs .

Despite the fact that he's always such an ass , he's a great friend, more than a brother.
I'm driving down to Richie's place, but before I can think straight I'm taking the lane that leads to Susan's,
I arrive at her house , i pack just I'm staring at her flat, I see her lights go of , I guess she's off to bed, i wonder if that jerk is in there with her,
just then her front door opens and she steps out ,
Is she sneaking out on that jerk , or are they both planing on going somewhere?
I'm still expecting to see Mr jerk  coming out with her, but I don't see anyone, she locks her door and shoves the key in her pocket,
I guess I thought wrong,
Mr jerk had probably left already ,
She puts on her jacket which was hung on  her left arm ,
She strolls down the lonely lane,
I wonder where she's off to,
It's half past 10pm ,
Its unladylike for her to roam this dangerous neighborhood alone,
She's indeed fearless
Before I know what I'm doing , I get out of my car and I silently follow her trail, I stay a bit a far of, away from her sight,
I can't let her go of into the streets alone.
