Chapter Thirteen: An Apology

"One round ticket to LA, please," Jay requested to the lady at the airport's front desk.

"I have one available for tomorrow at 11 am. There are no stops, and it costs $500," The lady responded while reading the information off a computer screen.

"That'll be great! Here's the cash." Jay slid the money to the lady in exchange for the ticket.

As he was about to leave the front desk, a girl bumped into him.

"Excuse me," Jay said sarcastically and kept walking.

"You aren't even going to look and see who it is?" The woman's voice yelled out.

Turning around, Jay saw that the woman he bumped into was the last person he wanted to see right now. Bianca.

"What do you want? You've already screwed up my life enough." Jay said as he tried to keep walking, but Bianca grabbed his arm.

"Wow. You kick me out of your house, and now, you don't want to talk. What's next? Are yah gonna beat me?"

"Just leave me alone, and go ruin somebody else's life. Please."

"Well, since you said please, no."

"Why?"

"Because, I have nobody. You probably don't know the feeling, but it sucks. Pretty bad."

"Ugh," Jay sighed. "Bianca, trust me. I of all people know the feeling, but you can't go around ruining people's lives to make up for your pain. It doesn't work like that. If you want real friends, then maybe you should start being a little nicer, and stop manipulating people into doing stuff they don't want to."

"Maybe, you're right."

"I am right because if you stopped being sucha jerk, you could be one pretty cool chick."

"You mean that, Lover Boy?"

"Of course."

"Then maybe I'll try it."

"Good, but don't ever try to put the moves on me again. I'm in love with Manny."

"I know, I know, and I am truly sorry for that. So are we cool?" Bianca's apology actually was sincere, and Jay was surprised but knew she was being honest.

"We're cool, B."

Exchanging a friendly hug with Bianca, Jay was finally pleased that she was finally off his back.
