Youth

An Unknow Surprise

I sat at table eating lunch while mom went to work. "Alone again Bayley." I say as I finish eating and put my dish in the sink. I head outside to the porch as the kids around the neighborhood played with their friends and I smiled thinking back to when I was younger playing around the neighborhood with Becky and our other friends Peyton and Billie. I light a cigarette as I looked down at my phone waiting for Becky's call. It's been two days and I haven't heard from this girl, but instead she texted me. "Hey B, what's your address again I want to send you a package." The message said. I shrug at it as I sent the address to Becky and she sent a thumbs up emoji. I continue to stare at my phone scrolling through my unread message and noticed that Sasha texted me. "Look up." I read to myself as I did and saw Sasha standing in front of me. "Well hello there Ms. Banks." I say to her and she smiles. "Hey Bayley." She said to me joining me on the step. "So what brings you here to my lovely home?" I ask her sarcastically. "Came to see my favorite girl. Is that a crime?" She asked which made me blush a bit and I shook my head. "Get yourself together Bayley." I think to myself then focus my attention back to Sasha. "Well Sasha it's not a crime but how did you find me?" I ask knowing I never told her my address. "I know people." She simply said and I shrugged.

Sasha and I sat on my steps talking for the next thirty minutes and I invited her into my house. "The inside is way prettier than the outside." Sasha said and shove her playfully. "Oh shut up." I say heading up to my room with her following along behind. Sasha stood in the doorway and looked around the room analyzing everything in here. "Nice wrestling posters didn't know you liked wrestling." She said as she sat on my bean bag chair. "Thanks, I'm surprised you know what wrestling is actually." I say back and she gasped. "Ouch, that hurt. I must say my dad is Ric Flair one of the greats of all times but I prefer Eddie Guerrero over him any-day." Sasha said and I chuckle. "Macho Man is better than both of them." I say pointing to my macho man poster. "Yeah no." She said and we began going back and forth about wrestling and who's the best wrestler before hearing my phone ding. "Hold that thought Eddie lover." I say grabbing my phone reading the message that was from Becky. "I'll be right back apparently I have a package." I say with slight confusion in my voice as I head down stairs to open the door. "HOLY SHIT!" I shout off the top of my lungs and Sasha races down to see what's going on. "Bayls what's wrong?" She asked. "No way." I say moving aside
