Lunch
I walked with my friends with our trays.

Jamal: guys I got eyes on me

Ruby: me to post shooting looky-loos are out in full force

Girl:oh ruby!

She came over and jamal practically dropped his food.

Ruby: I don't know how much longer I can be bullet boy I just want to get back to normal

Jazmine:normal? Baby you ain't never been normal You Got That special sauce flowing through your veins and probably all over that juicy nalia

We sat at our table.

Jazmine:Ruby said I could sit with y'all

Ruby:shoot I forgot dessert

Jazmine:ah you sit I gotchu sugar free sweets for my super sweet treat coming right up

She walked away

Me:why would you invite her to sit with us

Ruby:Im sorry but ever since my brush with death I've made a bargain with the big man or women let's just say the universe will be gender-neutral. But part of that deal was to work on my karmic energy be a better person so she wouldn't go sideways again. That deal is to do charity and Jazmine is my charity

Monse: couldn't you have saved a rainforest instead

Ruby: see I knew this would be an issue

Jamal: speaking of commitment we need to make one. What are we going to do with the cheddar I need a plan of action ASAP first thing after school all hands meeting. This kind of guda can get ripe real quick and I'm not sure we can handle it if people start sniffing around

Ruby:cheesy but I like it

They fist bumped

Monse: right now the money as is makes us targets I need to move quickly to wash the cash and help ceaser survive

Ceaser:yes

Jamal: okay so where are we meeting

Monse: my dad's coming home this afternoon

Jamal: okay so we can't do that Monse's, my house is pretty tense post dig debacle Ceaser never hosts so Ruby its you
