New Friend

Plump

When I got off it was around 11:30 I had to stay a extra 30 minutes to help clean just my f*****g luck the f*****g last bus left at 11. That meant I had to walk home only cause no taxi came in this area after night fall. As I started to walk I checked my purse and notice I didn't have my Taser with me changed purses and forgot to put that in there. I blew off and just started praying I had literally a twenty minute walk home, but this time of night was when all the feens and crazy people were out.

Plump had now been walking for about five minutes not long she started to pray out loud when she came up to the corner store. This store at night was where all the prostitutes and their pimps hung out at not to mention the crack addicts. Plump walked a little quicker she started to hear the begging from the homeless crackheads and the "aye baby" from the pimps. Her phone vibrated in her pocket she pulled out the cracked IPhone 6s and saw a unknown number calling her.

She walked into the store she felt safer talking on the phone in the store than on the streets. "Hello" she answered "baby girl wassup"? It was Justin the boy from earlier "nothing hi" she said making her way around the store she knew she couldn't be in there long before the owner got suspicious behind the counter. "Damn why you sound like your scared where you at"? She didn't know whether she should say "Plump baby girl talk" "I'm at Aunnie's and I gotta walk home which is another four blocks and I don't know I guess I'm scared to walk home knowing what type of people are out this time of night".

Plump heard a car door slam on his end of the phone "Aunnie's you said I'll be there in three minutes I'm right down the street stay inside". He said before he hung up, and that's what I did I stayed inside until he called me again to tell me he was outside. I walked out and there he was posted on the passenger side of a all black Maybach. "Thank you I said walking up to him" he opened the door "no problem baby girl".

As he drove he started to ask questions "why you walking this time of night anyway"? She sigh "I had to stay over at work and the last bus was at eleven so I had no choice I've never walked home at night before, so I was afraid". He replied "as you should be these crackheads and pimps would've snatched your fine ass up in a heartbeat". He kept calling me fine I wonder if he really meant it.

"I live in Magnolia" he chuckled "what"? Plump asked curious to know what was funny. "I know that's where you live baby girl you don't remember do you" she shook her head "I don't know what your talking about" he said to her turning on the street of her home "you didn't snitch I hope" now she knew what he was talking about. It was him from earlier it was Justin "you didn't kill those people that lived there did you"? She asked them with worry in her voice "he owed me money my intentions was not to go there and kill I know he had a family, but my trigger happy ass friend Dallas decided to take matters into his own hands. The wife I think she survived, but I know for sure ole dude is dead". Plump was speechless "here we are what number" Plump looked around at the run down projects she lived in "10A on your left" he nodded.

This was truly embarrassing this is why I hated Magnolia "here we are looks like someone's up" he said referring to the light that was on in the window "my mom she doesn't go to bed until I'm in safe , um thanks again for the ride" Plumps said opening the door, but Justin stopped her "wait" she turned "yea" "let me take you out I mean you owe me for the ride" she laughed "are you dead ass"? He chuckled saying "yes girl I'm serious I was going to ask you over the phone earlier". Plump started thinking ass she saw her momma looking through the blinds she knew if she stayed out any longer her mom would come out.

"Just something friendly where we can get to know each other" just then the door opens Plump had to hurry and give a answer "alright fine Saturday I'm free after twelve meet me outside of the library downtown" Justin smiled showing his pearly white "alright cool I'll see you then" Plump got out and made her way to her mom "who's that, that brought you home"? Plump looked back and watched as he pulled away "a new friend" was her answer.
