3rd Person Omniscient

Ever since Lola found out about Keenon's cheating scandal, she has buried herself in work to keep from thinking about it. Keenon has been calling, but she keeps declining his calls. She wants to talk to him face to face. How could she sit on FaceTime with him and act like everything is good when it is really not? Right now Lola was sitting in her car waiting for class to start. She had her head on the steering wheel, thinking about what she was going to do. Steph saw her sitting in the car, so he came over and knocked on the window. Lola looked up and rolled down her window.

Lola

"Yes??"

"Everything good??"

"Yea yea. I'm just waiting for class to start."

"Lola.....class is next Tuesday. Not this Tuesday. You sure everything ok?" I smacked my forehead and put my head back on the steering wheel. It was silent for a while. "Lola??" I looked at him and told him to get in in the passenger side. He came around and got in. After rolling the window up and turning down the music, I leaned my head back closed my eyes.

"I want to apologize for not telling you  that I was in a relationship. I should have made things clear."

"It's all good Lola. If you were mine I would act the same way." I sighed and kept my eyes closed. "Now tell me what's really wrong." Steph said. My phone rang and it was Keenon for the 5th time today. I turned my phone off and tossed it to the back of my car. "You and him not on good terms??" Steph asked. I shook my head no and closed my eyes. "What happened??" He asked.

"Just some confusion at the moment. Im confused and he's probably confused on why I'm not answering my phone. I'm not ready to talk." I felt Steph's eyes on me and he grabbed my hand.

"How long you been avoiding his calls??" He asked. I sighed.

"A month and 4 days." I opened my eyes and looked at Steph.

"Sheesh. That's tough. You can't keep avoiding his calls Lola. That ain't right." Steph was right,but what in the world was I going to say to Keenon??

"I know Steph I know. I just need more time to figure out what to do." Steph rubbed my hand.

"How about we go grab some food and eat at the park. My treat. You know to get your mind off of this." I looked at him and looked down.

"Sure. Let's go." He got out the car and game to the driver side and opened the door. "What are you doing Steph?" He laughed.

"We're getting in my car. So get out." I cut my car off, grabbed my phone, and got out. I locked the doors and walked to his car. I was shocked to see the car he drove.

"Ummm Steph?? You balling like this?? Ok thennnn." He laughed and opened the door for me. I got inside his car and put my seatbelt on. He closed my door and made his way to the driver side. Steph drove a silver 2017 Maserati Quattroporte. The inside was so nice and it smelled really good. He got in, started the car and we drove off. As music was playing in the car, Karen called me and I sighed.

"Yes??"

"Lola?? Why does Keenon and his manager keep calling me??" I rolled my eyes.

"Karen tell Keenon that I lost my phone and I found it yesterday. Make up a good story for me please. I'll explain everything to you later."

"Ok. Be safe Lola." She hung up and I put my phone down.

"So Lola what are you in the mood for?" Steph asked while driving.

"I don't know about you, but I'm in the mood for some Chinese food." He chuckled and he nodded his head.

About 10 minutes later we pulled up to a Chinese restaurant. He got out the car and went inside to get the food. I could see him through the windshield and I do have to say that Steph was looking really good today. Like really good. The outfit was really simple, but he looked really good. He soon exited the restaurant with two bags and got in the car. He drove off and we went to a one of my favorite parks in LA. Grand Park was a beautiful park that I love to visit. He got out the car with the bags in his hand and made his way to my side to open my door. He opened my door and I got the car. He grabbed a blanket from the trunk of his car and we walked to an empty spot. He layed the blanket down and I sat down on the blanket. I took my Sandals off and crossed my legs. "Why do you have a blanket in your trunk?? Did you plan this??" He smiled and shook his head no.
