"Ok well next you cook it" I say grabbing 2 round pans .
Me and dad pour the batter into the pans and place them in the oven. Me and dad go to sit down on the couch clicking on a movie.
About 15 minutes later dad gets a phone call.
"Hello?" Dad says
"Oh okay that's fine honey" he says his voice sounds sad but it lightens up when he says
"Bye love you"
"Yeah love you bye" he says before ending the call and turning around to me.
"So your mom has to stay late since Lilly didn't come in today" he says a little irritated cause it was supposed to be special for mom to come home.
"so wanna head out for some pizza or something?" He asks smiling at the end cause we both love pizza.
"Yeah lets go" I say as I walk to the door to slip on my shoes and open it heading out to my dads truck.
"So Louie's?" Dad said as he closed the door of His pick up and started her up.
"Yeah " I say turning up the radio as Don't take the girl came on. I remember when I was younger me and dad just driving around listening to this song.
You see I am closer to my dad then I am my mom. I still love them both with all my heart but ever since I was able to talk. Having my first word be "DA DA" I've always been Daddy's little girl .since I was really young me and my dad would go to Louie's and have pizza to celebrate anything or just for no good reason.
"Daddy pleeeeeeeeease don't take the girl" me and dad sang as we pulled up to Louie's
"Hey Daryl " pa pa Lou said to my dad as we entered the shop. My dad has always been close friends with pa pa Lou.
"Aloha little Dixon how's your Mama?" He said turning to me giving me a hug.
"Good work and other things on her mind. how about John?" I ask sitting down at a table with dad across from me.
"Good he's in the back would you like me to pull him out?" He asked and I nodded. Minutes later John came out and I smiled standing up hugging him.
John is one of my close friends I've known him for all my life and that's how long we've been friends. He has the prettiest blue eyes has really dark brown hair freckles here and there and is about 5"7? He's only 3 months older then me His birthday in March mine in June. But he's like a brother to me.
"Hey Bell " John said letting go from our hug.
"Hey Mr. Dixon" John said smiling and waving at my dad.
"Hello john" my dad said waving back at him.
"Um you can join us" I said looking at dad making sure it was okay.
My dad nodded and john said "sorry bell but I have to go back to work" as he pointed towards the kitchen.
"Oh okay well I'll see you soon " I said hugging him he agreed walking to the back.
I sat back down at the table and dad had the weirdest smirk on his face.
"One day" he said
"One day what?" I asked out of curiosity
"You and john I see it now" he said and I almost puked. I don't like john at all.
"No dad he's like my brother" I said and my dad kept that smirk on his face before he said
"Yeah okay"
"Here y'all go" pa pa Louie said bring out a large pepperoni pizza
"Thanks" me and dad said insinc
We started munching down when I remembered The cake!
"Dad the cake" I said as I shoved a slice down my throat.
"Oh god hey Lou can we get a box pronto its an emergency" dad said before standing up and grabbing his wallet pulling out a 20 dollar bill and putting it on the table as Lou came out and handed us the box. I quickly put the pizza in the box and started walking out.
On my way out I bumped into someone. I looked up to see an Asian looking dude with a uniform for Louie's on.
"I am sorry" he said picking up his car keys his voice sounded worried.
"No its my fault I wasn't watching where I was going" I say as I glance down at his name tag. Glen hmm that's a different name.
"Glen!?!? Already late on your first day" I heard Lou yell from the back and glens face worries even more written.
"Hey don't let him push you to hard. on the inside he's like a marshmallow" I whispered to glen.
"Thanks" he said His face softened and smiled.
I patted him on his back as I headed out but before I could exit I heard glen call out.
"What's your name?" He asked as he stood there like a lost puppy.
"Bell" I said smiling.
"Well see you around bell" he said
"Same to you glen" I said and His face went puzzled until he realized he's wearing a name tag.
"who was that?" my dad asked as i hopped into the truck,
" ehh a new guy glen he started working at Louie's I ran into him on the way out " I say as I buckle my seat belt and my dad starts to drive but still listening
"oh no" dad said pulling into the drive way seeing moms car
"she's gonna kill us" we say at the same time
"the dog did it excuse right?" he asks turning to me
"yep" I say as we hop out of the truck to meet mom
"I am sorry " my dad said to her disapproving face
"your lucky the house didn't burn down!!!?!?!?" my mother yelled at my dad after words
"honey I am sor-" my dad tried to say but my mom cut him off
"just leave it its fine " she said before walking upstairs
"man, women" my dad said before plopping down on the couch and lighting a cig
I plopped down next to him and opened the pizza box, took a slice and at the same time my dad sucked in on the cig I took a bite from my pizza and we both said
"Man, Women"
