The girls had earned all of our respect and although they really didn’t need to do what they did, I was grateful for it. They stopped an even larger scene from occurring.
Just send her a message.
Yeah, I think I’ll do that.
I haven’t seen Tina since Saturday and I’m already itching to see her again.
I sit at the computer and open up the instant messenger.
Nik123: Hey teeny Tina, how are you today?
A few minutes pass before I get a reply.
TheTomicBomb: Hey Nik the Dick, I’m good thanks. How r u?
I laugh. She’s been talking to Max.
Nik123: Have you been talking to Max? How do you know about Nik the Dick?
TheTomicBomb: Haha, he might’ve mentioned it when he brought the passes to Safira.
Nik123: Whatever he tells you, I’ll deny it all. How did you enjoy yourself at the club?
TheTomicBomb: Oh. My. Gawd!!! It was awesome! The girls have already decided we’ll be back this Saturday.
I’m really happy about this. I’m smiling like an idiot.
Nik123: That’s great. I’m so glad you girls enjoyed yourselves. Like I said, that booth is yours. I’ll reserve it under Safira again.
TheTomicBomb: Awesome! Thanks :) will u guys be joining us again?
Nik123: Definitely but we’ll have to take turns because we all work on club nights.
TheTomicBomb: Really?! I know u own it but what do the other guys do?
Nik123: Ghost runs security and mans the CCTV, Trick does a bit of everything, and Max is a VIP host.
TheTomicBomb: Wicked. How cool is it 2 work with ur best friends?! I love it.
Nik123: Yeah, it’s pretty great. How’s work?
TheTomicBomb: Well I was so busy I 4got 2 get lunch so I’m a little hungry :(
I don’t like that. She should’ve sent one of the girls to get something for her.
Nik123: That’s not good. You need to take better care of yourself.
TheTomicBomb: I know…but Nat hasn’t eaten either so we’ll get an early dinner. Sorry Nik, I’ve got 2 go. Talk 2 u later x
TheTomicBomb has logged off.
I like the little kiss she wrote. I stare at the little x a few seconds before I grab my wallet, then I’m out the door.

“Will this day never end?” Nat complains as puts her forehead on the counter with a thump.
It’s only the two of us at the store today and we’ve been pretty busy. There was a pupil free day at a few schools around the area so we’ve been off the hook, packed full of young girls.
