Chapter 10

Carlos and Kelly were at the kitchen at Nicky's. Carlos was washing the dishes.

"I am so ready to ruida. I have been working on this dance part. Watch me," said Kelly. She started to dance.

"Ay. That was pretty close," said Carlos.

"Hey, Carlos. I need you to work tonight's shift," said Mr. Ivara.

"He can't," said Kelly.

"What's with the girl?" he asked.

"I'll tell you what's wrong with me," said Kelly.

"Kelly," said Carlos.

"You work him over time, don't pay him enough and needs a break," said Kelly.

"Carlos, I didn't know it bother you so much," said Mr. Ivara.

"Mr. Ivara." said Carlos.

"Why don't you take the rest of the day off?" asked Mr. Ivara.

"Thank you," said Kelly.

"Why don't you take the rest of the week off? You're Fired," said Mr. Ivara.

"Mr. Ivara..." said Carlos. He looked at Kelly. "What just happen?"

"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to," said Kelly.

"Sure you did. You were just thinking about yourself," said Carlos, as he took off his apron and went to Mr. Ivara. "Mr. Ivara." He walked out of the room with Kelly behind him. Jim and Colette walked towards Colette's home.

"This was great. I can forget how it started," said Colette.

"2 things bad can't make a right, but doing 2 things well can make a right," said Jim, as they stopped at Colette's gate.

"That was deep," said Colette.

"I got it from a friend," said Jim. They stood there silent.

"Well," said Colette, as she extended her hand to Jim. "Good night."

"Good night," said Jim, as he shook her hand. Colette opened the gate and went inside. "Good night."

"Good night," said Colette. He stood there as she walked into her house. He smiled and walked away. The next day, Diana and Kelly were at the outdoor club (where Jim and Kelly talked for the 1st time) not enjoying their time.

"Diana, your hair is so shine. What do you use?" asked Kelly.

"I don't know. Crashed ice, lemon. This the worst time I'm having," said Diana.

"No kidding. I find the guy that I like and he says that I only care about is myself," said Kelly. Colette came with a drink in her hand and a smile on her face.

"What are you smiling about?" asked Diana.

"Nothing," said Colette, smiling. "Everything." Jim, Brennan and Jesse were at a little open diner, eating.

"You missed one of the hottest parties last night. Where were you last night?" asked Brennan.

"I was out with a date with Colette," said Jim, as he took a bite of his burger.

"Oh my god. Did you hook up last night?" asked Diana.

"You totally hooked up, Dude," said Brennan.

"He held your hand in sunset?" said Kelly.

"Dude!" said Brennan.

"He said meeting you was destiny?" said Kelly.

"Dude!" said Jesse.

"He was so romantic. He was amazing. It was so.," said Colette.

"Dude!" said Brennan and Jesse.
