Chapter 19
I dressed normally for the occasion. I didn't need to wax my legs or tweeze my eyebrows, because I was already fine from my last date with Chris.. and also because this was Jimmy. I wasn't going to be taking off my clothes. The doorbell rang. I was already ready, but Jim was half an hour early. I opened the door to find Flora with her baby niece and baby bags in her hand. "Oh no, no no no!" I said, about to close the door when she said.
"Please, Kitty?"she begged. I was supposed to babysit Megan tonight, but then I remembered I had an appointment.. Where the hell are you going?"
"Out with Jimmy, we're gonna go see a movie. Hi Megan!" I touched her baby soft face and she giggled. She was about 6 months old.
She handed the baby to me and dropped the bags on the front door mat. "You broke up with Chris? Oh my God! You're kidding me!! So now you're going out with 'he-smells-good' Jimmy? When did you guys break up! This is a total crisis! How come you didn't call me? Are you fucking crazy?" she freaked.
"Jimmy and I are not dating, Flor'. We're just gonna see a movie. I mean, you and I see movies all the time. That doesn't mean we're dating. Jim and I are just friends." I explained. "And he's gonna be here in 20 minutes, so I can't. Get Audj or Fawn to do it."
"My appointment is only an hour and a half, besides Fawn was on a date and Audj wasn't home when I called. Please? You're my only hope." The baby started crying.
"Oh, God, you are gonna die. You owe me so bad." I said picking up the baby and soothing her. She kissed my cheek.
"I know, thanks sooo much." she laughed. "Oh, geez." She stared at her watch. "I better get going. I'll call before I get here."
"What am I supposed to do about my date?" I choked.
"Date?" she giggled. "Just call him and cancel," she shrugged.
"I've been canceling for the past three months, Flor'!!" I raised my voice.
"Let him come over for a little while. Get it on, by the time you finish I'll be back!" she laughed and left out the door. "Toodles!" she called.
