I was having an after school snack with the girls when i heard the door burst open

"How do i look" carl asked me

"Like a really basic bitch" i told him "why"

"Im meeting Dominiques dad."

"Oh well then you look great." I told him "heres a tip. Dont tell him you're friends with me"

"Why"

"It wouldn't benefit you. Bye now" i told him and he walked out.

Carl has been dating Dominique for a while. Just like i said he would soo. All's well that ends well. Probably wont but hey.

"Hi honey" V said "no carl again"

"Mhm"

"You havent left the house for anything other than school in a while"

"Dont like walking alone" I told her

She dropped her stuff and looked at me.

"Go to the alibi"

"I cant be there" i said looking at my phone

"You can if i say you can. Now go"

"Fine"

I went to the alibi and sat down at the bar.

"Svet can i" i said and she gave me a beer.

"She gets older and older every time." I heard kermit mumble.

"Thats how aging works dumbass" i said before chugging the bottle

"Whats your problem" Tommy said

"Carl is out with his girlfriend" kevin told them "if it bothers you so much why dont you just tell him how you feel."

"I cant. I told him we were strictly friends"

"Well why dont you go get a boyfriend" tommy asked And svet and I started laughing.

"Shes not going to settle down"

"Well i dont know maybe shes not ready for a relationship" kevin told them "her last one ended really bad."

"Yeah. So bad. The kindergarten relationship that broke me for good" i said laying down on the bar top. Then i got up. "Im gonna go somewhere maybe patsys"

"Be careful" he told me

"Maybe." I said and left.

I walked to a store grabbed some ice cream and walked around for a bit. I stumbled into a different neighborhood.

After a bit i ran into a girl and dropped my phone.

"Holy shit" she said

"Oh sorry thats my fault."i said picking it up. Looking at the cracked screen.
