Teenage Dirtbag -South Park Creek

Dragons and Fruit

[Tweeks P.o.V]

I ran out of Craig's house and into the streets. I ran as fast as I could to get to the shop. Once I finally ran in my dad immediately started yelling at me. Okay he wasn't yelling yelling. He only does that when he's high. He just "lectured" me. At least that's what mom calls it.

"Young man do you know what time it is!" He said 

"It's  past the rush hour-" I tried to say but he cut me off

"It's past the rush hour!" He told me "you know me and you're poor mother had to work this place all by ourselves!"

I saw Pablo in my  peripheral vision drop his mop and go into the back room angrily.

"You have no time management skills you know you're going to need that and-" to be completely honest I shut him out at this point. I used to hate  getting yelled at by anybody and would try my hardest not to make people upset with me. But they would get so mad at me for just being in the same room that I just stopped trying. I let them yell at me and stopped caring.

"Are you listening to me?!" He started to actually yell so I got kinda freaked out about that. Because I knew what came after he got really mad.

"Yes." I Said.

"Then what did I say?" 

"Um, how I'm a disappointment to you and mom?"

He didn't say anything for a couple of seconds "Good you were listening" then he went into the back room

Once I got my apron and hat, I went behind the counter with my mom. 

"Oh you know he has to be a little hard on you sometimes right sweetie?"

I stared straight ahead, "Yeah mom"

She kissed me on the cheek and went to go help a customer. 

Clyde walked Up to the counter after sitting in a booth and eating just one  croissant "Hey! Broski! What's up! I'll have the usual." He said leaning against the counter and sliding Monopoly money over towards me 

I turned around and started making him a dragonfruit iced tea. 

"Ya know Clyde," I Said while still making his drink "you can stop pretending you come here for the tea and just say you come here during the slow hours to chat with me"

"But that's kinda gay" he said while taking the drink and handing me the cash 

"Says the boy who spends his time drooling over the local bad boy" 

"Hey" Clyde started "Craig's the local bad boy, okay? Kenny's just a confused loner"

"Man, you say the word stoner so weird"

"Fuck you" he said while slurping his tea. 

"So, anything interesting happen today?" 

"I was late and my dad yelled at me"

"I saw, that really sucks man, anything I can do to make you feel better?"

"No It's fine, I was like 5 hours late anyways, I probably deserved it" I Said while grabbing a cloth and  wiping down the counter 

"Hot damn!" Clyde Said "Why were you so late?"

"Oh, Uh" should I tell him? "I overslept at Craig's house and he didn't wake me up"

"Wait Wait Wait" clyde put down his drink so he could make more dramatic hand movements "you were at Craig's house?"

"Yeah.." I Said blushing "why?"
