âOh okay. Iâm sorry that happened to you. Did they say anything else about it?â
âI donât know. I havenât logged in at all today. They had the nerve to send it to my email. Mind you that I was in the office when they sent the email.â
âCowards.â
âYes. I thought one of the typical nosey coworkers said something but she said that it wasnât her. I donât trust none of them.â
âI wouldnât either. Theyâre full of shit. I hope things get better.â
âI do too. Today is Tuesday, I think and Iâm thinking about taking a leave of absence until I feel safe to go back.â
âIf itâs paid. Take it off. They need to be taught a lesson for being childish as hell.â
âExactly. Assholes.â
Thump. Thump. Thump.
Maverick kicked the door since both of his hands were full.
âIâll get it.â
Brinley smiled. âWho is it?â
âOpen the door.â
âRaise your voice again and Iâm not opening the door. Hand me the goodies and gone about your business.â
Brinley laughed. She got up and walked into the kitchen. Who knew that these two men would bring me so much joy while my best friend is halfway across the world? I didnât.
âAbout time. Let me get the food and you can leave. My friend and I will like to thank you for your service.â
âIf you donât get out of my damn face,â he laughed.
âClowning with you gives me so much joy.â
Brinley looked on from the kitchen.
âWhere is my lady at anyway? Iâm tired of looking at your dusty ass.â
âSheâs sleeping. I put her to bed early.â
Maverick walked past him and into the house. âBrinley, where are you?â
âOpen your eyes and come this way. Follow my voice.â
âWhy did you let him open the door?â
âBecause he told me that I was a lady and that I didnât need to,â she lied.
âOh, shit. Yâall getting a little too cozy for me.â
âWhatever. You heard what the lady said,â he played along. âWhat did you get to eat because Iâm starving.â
âAnd youâre going to eat that outside by yourself.â
âNo, the hell Iâm not. Iâm eating at this nice wooden dining room table. I donât know who told you that I eat outside. Iâm not an animal.â
âDamn.â
âWhat did you get us?â Brinley smiled.
âHibachi. I hope you like that.â
âIâve never had it.â
âWhat?â
âYes, Iâve never had it. Whatâs wrong with that?â
âOh, nothing.â
âYouâre missing out on one of the best meals. I love Hibachi. Quick and reasonable.â
âSo, Iâm a cheap date? Maverick am I a cheap date?â
Silence.
âAnswer the damn question, Maverick. Is she a cheap date?â
âNo maâam. I thought since it was going to be the three of us and not two that I would get something quick. Do you like soy sauce?â
âI do. Is it like Chinese food?â
âNothing like it,â Kendall chimed in.
âMan, I wish you would get your meal and leave.â
âI am once you give it to me.â
âAll of them are the same. I also got an extra one with shrimp if anybody wants some of that one.â
âSo, what did you get?â
âHibachi chicken with rice with all of the vegetables.
