Chapter 10
They all sat in silence after Tiffany finished her sentence. Finally, after a long silence, Brian spoke up.
"That bastard!" he said mad.
" Yo, don't even sweat this shit, B. We all know what we're doing and now that we got these two monsters behind the wheel, we're usntoppable. Kevin probably just picked two kids off the streets and bribed them with cash. Besides nobody can beat Tiff or Jermaine." said Tej.
"Yea, whatever. He just pisses me off man. He's been shit like this since I was a kid. Always wanting to compete with me at everything I do..." he said trailing off.
"Well, he's gonna lose because nobody messes with Brian and Doms crews, ya heard?" said Tej, with his southern slang.
Two weeks later...
It was the day of the first race. Tiffany was up next and she was scared as hell. All bad thoughts kept going through her brain. It was her third and last race becasue she had won the first two but this kid she was racing, supposedly always won and was a kick-butt racer. She pulled up to the starting line and focused on what Dom and Rome had told her...focus on the road... block everything out...Don't hold back...
The light turned red...
The light turned yellow...
The light turned green and Tiffany pulled out as soon as it did. She was gassing it as she shifted into 2nd gear focusing on what Brian had told her... 3 seconds had passed... She was in third gear... Fourth gear... top of fifth...
Both racers were neck and neck. They were nearing the finish line when the other racer made a huge mistake... He pulled of the gas a little and then hit the NOS button...
Tiffany jammed her thumb down hard on the little red button and sped afer him, both of them becoming blurs. She was pulling a head by a inch... by a foot and finally her car passed the skinny white line signalling her victory.
Everyone was excited but then 2 seconds later everything changed. The other racer got angry cuz he had lost and crossed over his line into Tiffany's lane hitting her car and sending her plummeting into the wall.
Letty,Jesse,Tej, Mia, Brian jumped the barricades on the sideline, while Vince ,Leon, and Dom restraiend Rome from jumping on the kids dad who had a smile of triumph on his face. Letty, Jesse, Tej, Mia, and Brian were soon joined by Leon,who told him Rome andVince got arrested,as they made their way to the car. The ambulance was already trying to pull Tiffany outta the wrecked car but Letty pushed them aside roughly.Dom andJesse pryed the banged up car door of its hinges and Brian and Leon helped Tiffany out. She didn't have any major injuries just a couple of straches and a cut on her left arm. Dom rode with her in the back of the ambulance as they took her to the hospital.
A couple hours later...
Rome and Vince were both in jail. Turns out that the kid was Jason Rodriguez from Kevins team. Rome and Vince beat the kids dad to a pulp after he laughed at Tiff. Mia and Letty bailed them out and they drove to the hospital. Everyone was waiting outside Tiffanys room, anxiously. The doctor came out with a big smile on her face, and that eased all the tension.
"She's fine. She should recover in a day or two and she'll be back to her bubbly self after that just with a couple of scrapes and bruises. You all can see her now." said the doctor. They all practically ran into the room. Tiffany was sitting up on her bed, her old clothes already on her body. She had a thin line on the side of her face that was a result of the accident and bandages on her arm but that was it.
"What are you guys looking sad about? With you being street racers and all, I thought you'd be used to accidents." she said coyly.
" Yea, well never with somebody so young. Are you alright?" said Letty having a flashback of the heist when her car flipped over.
"Yea, well I've had worse. Ow, Rome." She said cuz while she had been talking, Rome was examining her face and arms and legs to make sure she was okay.
"Well, how about we blow this popsicle joint and get the hell outta here? I hate hospitals." said Jesse, getting a flashback from his hoapital days after he was shot.
They all exited the hospital and Tiffany rode with Rome. She was expecting him to turn the way the other cars were going but he turned the other way. He then turned to her.
" I have to talk to you about something, babycakes." he said using her nickname from when she was 5.
"Yea, Rome, what is it?"
"Well, I had Jesse do a search for Mama and Dad and it turns out that there living in Orlando. Wanna g-go see them s-soon?" he said faltering.
"Listen, Rome I really don't care-" she started angrily.
"I think it would do you some good to see them." he said.
"Fine, I'll go for you." she said as he did a u-turn and started their way back home.
"One more thing." said Rome.
"What?" asked Tiffany annoyed.
"They've got another kid." he said...
