"I'm so done working here."
An aspiring racer, a young MMA prodigy meet in a cafe.
They will soon learn what it's like to love each other.
In..their own little special way...
I get home and see that Alex is watching a 'Kitchen Nightmares' episode. I shut and lock the door as she turns her head back.
"Where did ya go?" She asks turning down the volume. I could still hear Gordon Ramsay yelling in the background.
"The Cafe by my school," I say kicking off my shoes. "Kitchen Nightmares? Really?"
"Hey, this shows awesome." Alex points the remote at me like a gun.
I put my hands up in defense, "Ok! Ok...Jesus."
"Also," Alex takes a deep breath, "Mom's coming home in a few days."
"Oh."
I kick off my shoes and walk to my room. I close the door and set my drink down at my bedside table. I then sit down on my bed.
'Ok me,' I lay down on my bed, legs dangling, 'Should I train? Or should I take a nap?'
'Train.'
After around 3 hours of training, I hear my phone ding. I go to check my phone, which is charging.
Unknown Number: hey! its rayne just wanted to lyk that im off work !!! me and my friend are gonna go to the arcade at the mall. just wanted to know if i should pick you up or you can meet us there (if you still wanna go ofc)
'Arcade eh?' I think about what I should do, I unlock my phone and message back
You: Will it be alright if you pick me up? And can you let me know which mall we're going to?
I wait a few moments and see her typing.
'I should change her contact name.'
While she's typing, I change her name to "Rayne".
Rayne: alr! we're going to the mall uptown. by the target? yk where that is???
You: Yup. Been there many times.
Rayne: ok! so um you want me to pick u up??
You: Ya. Here let me give you my address. Gimme a sec

I type in my address with a picture.
'From here on out, she's gonna know my address.' I take a deep breath and click send.
Rayne: oh that's right by my work!!! ill be there in just a few :)))
You: alright, see ya soon
Rayne:
