Friends – part 3

It’s Wednesday, me and Tom showed our proposal to the advisor and she loved it telling us
“You guys are going places”
We aren’t much when we are at school doing our own thing, yet when we come together for anything it always seems to work out.
That is what I like about Tom, he messes around a lot but when he gets serious it is like he is a completely different person.
We talked about our movie proposal all week and it became our ice breaker for these past few days.
School is pretty much the same as usual, although whenever I see Carla she runs to me and gives me a big hug repeating the words
“Lets go on a date again soon”
Every day…
Yet when I see latasha, we talk about hanging out this weekend,
I think I over did it by asking her to wait a week for me to get some money even though she agreed to surprisingly..
After school today, the club met up again so me and Tom decided to show everyone what we intend to make, everyone got excited by the proposal and came up with ways to make money for it and recruiting actors…
After the meeting I ran over to latasha after I got the courage to ask her
“You think we could hang out today instead of the weekend?”
Which is a surprise, although I can’t help but want to hang out….
Latasha, she is a reserved girl, passive yet beautiful I like how kind and honest she is, when I need help with script writing she is the person I go to for advice and she would give me honest feedback about lines I am using, it started when I first showed her and latasha pointed out to me that all my characters had the same voice, like they were all me and didn’t have any other personality to express…
She is a very important person to me.
Anyways during the moment I asked her I realized how much anticipation I built up in the short moment I waited before latasha told me
“I have homework to do, but you can come over tonight since my parents aren’t home”
Latasha mutters shyly
From the expression she made after making out the words
“My parents arent home”
It was obvious that she wasn’t thinking when she said that, even hearing the words is making me embarassed…
“I’ll text you later than!”
I roar as we say our goodbyes afterwards…
I went home and got ready, the anticipation began to build up inside me again…
I kept checking my phone a few times, the only text I got was from Tom and Carla who I talked to as I waited for latasha….
Maybe I’ll text her first, I tell myself as I pull out my phone again to send her a text
“H.hey ”
That is until my phone vibrates
“Miguel, you can come over sorry I was just getting ready”
Wow, this is so convenient…
I put on my jacket and tell my dad I’m heading out to latasha’s
Which makes him proud to say
“That’s my boy!”
He makes me uncomfortable when he talks about girls, like they are just objects that guys use, I still think to myself if my mother was any different, but the thoughts make me too embarassed to think any farther about their relationship.
