"What why?" Kendra asked sitting up almost spilling her coffee

"Wait, why?" Vivian wondered if she had forgotten an important event. It was very possible, she didn't remember much in the mornings.

"Um, school. Work. Life!" Abby replied. (I know that y'all said it'd be a holiday, but could they just have school and such so that Natasha wouldn't miss much?)

"Im off on Fridays remember?" she said and relaxed back into her seat. "If anyone needs a ride I'd be happy to drive" (sounds good)

"I'm going to be late," Abby muttered, sliding the pan around to cook the eggs hastily.

"I got fired from my job," Vivian informed Abby. She just remembered she hasn't told them all that yet.

"oh no! do you want me to do the eggs so you can get ready Abby?"

Abby looked gratefully at Kendra. "Thank you." She hurried into her room and quickly, quietly packed a backpack.

Kendra got up and continued with the eggs Abby left, her coffee and phone left on the table

Abby closed the door quietly. Veda was still sleeping. Let her rest easy. "Is everyone alright?" Abby asked, tightening her ponytail and sliding her DII CHAMPS hat on.

"We're fine Abby, you were literally just out here" she laughed

"Ok. I just have to make sure, you know?" Abby grabbed her keys and pulled her laptop and phone off of their respective chargers.

"Bye Abby!"

"Bye!" Abby called over her shoulder. She stepped out into the hallway and shut the door. "Wait!" she quickly went back inside and grabbed her GRYPHON Taboo Blue Steel hockey stick (named Beauty) and left again, repeating her goodbye. Turning the corner, she almost bumped into someone. "Oh sorry!" She said. She looked up to see who it was. "Wes!" she exclaimed, surprised.

"Kendra, just stick to cats and you'll be fine," she randomly proclaimed, looking quite serious.

Wes smiled down at her. "Oh, hey Abby!"
"I gotta run, but we'll talk later?" Abby asked, starting back off down the hallway.
Wes reached out and grabbed her arm. "Abby, wait."
Her skin prickled at his touch. "I have to go, I'm going to be late."

olivia laughed at the others struggles, happy she didn't have to work until monday. she decided to go to the park.

Wes looked deeply into her eyes and Abby felt her heart skip a beat. He released her arm. "I'll… I'll talk to you later," Abby breathed. Wes's eyes sparkled and he turned and headed off. Abby stayed frozen for a second, but the took off.

Vivian collapsed onto the couch. "What is wrong with me…"

"Whats up?" she asked vivian floping on the couch next to her

"I got fired. Again."

"Awe!" she said looking at her. then she got thoughtful "you know, they need an assistant down at the bookstore/cafe, you could apply there." she said

She played with loose couch strings. "Thanks. I'll go down later today. I'll probably get fired after a week though."

She lightly punched her "don't say that! i happen to be the manager that overlooks that assistant so you probab;y won't get fired after a week."

She sighed, "Don't be biased, Kendra. If I'm an underperforming worker, fire me. It won't hurt my feelings."
