Chapter 5

"So Susie, you having a good time?" Man asked sweating alot. They done were with their dinner and were in the car headed for Susie's apartment.

"Yeah. Why are sweating?" Susie asked.

"I've got something very important to ask you." he said.

"What?"

"W-w-w-w-w-w-w-wi-will y-y-you m-m-m-marry me?" Max asked. Susie stared at him.

"You maniac! We've been on one date!" she yelled. "Stop the truck. I'll walk." she said.

.....

"Lil!" he yelled.

"Yes?" she asked from her office.

"Forgive me! I didnt mean it like that!" he yelled from the other side of the door.

"I'm not letting you in!" Lil shouted.

"Fine! I'll force my way in!" he yelled. He ran far from the door, then charged at it. Lil heard a thump against the door and Tommy fall to the ground. "Oww! What is that? Titanium?"

"No. Wood." she replied. "You're just a little insect."

"Fine. Angelica will open the door for me." Tommy said. He ran across the building and to Angelica' office. "Angelica, will me a key to Lil's office?"

"Why?" Angelica asked.

"Um." Tommy tried to think of what to say. "Please."

"Why? Did you cheat on her again?" Angelica asked popping her knuckles.

"NO! Its not that! Everyone's against me!" he ran out crying.

Lil poked her head out her door and saw Tommy running away from Angelica's office.

.....

Phil rolled over in bed and opened his eyes. "OH MY GOD!" he yelled.

"What?" May asked waking up. "That was a heck of a night." she smiled.

"Kill me." he said to himself. Phil walked into the kitchen and saw Kimi. "KIMI!?"

"Hey Phil." she said. "So, who was it last night."she chuckled.

"Huh?"

"Well, it sounded like you broke the bed down last night." Kimi sai. May then walked out of the room. "WHOA! What the?" Kimi screamed.

"Hi Kimi." May said.

"Hi May." Kimi said.

"Okay May. Time to leave." Phil said pushing her out the door.

"Geeze." she said as Phil started crying again and slammed the door.

"I hate my life." Phil cried.

"Its okay." Kimi hugged him.

"No really. I do." Phil balled.

.....

"Well, I've officially had a sucky day." Tommy said walking into Dil's apartment.

"Why?" Dil asked.

"Lil got mad at me because she thinks I dont want to be with her."Tommy sighed.

"By the way, meet my new girlfriend, May." Dil said as May walked in from the bedroom.

"Whoa!" he yelled. "May! How ya doin?"

"Geeze. Bout time you talked." May said.

"Is that your new lingo, or something?" Tommy asked.

"Geeze, get off my back jackass." May snapped.

"What did I do?" Tommy asked.

"Geeze. I'm outta here! See ya Dil!" May yelled and ran out the door.

"What did I do?" Tommy asked Dil.

"Never mind that, back to you and Lil." Dil said.

"Well, I told her I didn't wanna have a baby with her and she thinks that I want one with someone else." Tommy said. Dil rolled his eyes.

"You can really screw things up!"

'How?"

"Thats not what ya say! You just say you dont wanna have a baby. Or you could have a baby and not love it."

"Thats cruel."

"But a plan."

"No. Tell her to meet you at the park."

"What about my apartment."

"Its not romantic."

"Neither's the park."

"It's better than your crappy place."

"Its nice, but ya got a point."

.....

"Phil." Kimi said.

"What?"

"Get a hold of yourself."

"I dont wanna." he groaned.

"Get a job." Kimi ordered.

"No."

"You love the kids so much, why dont you try to teach?"

"No. But I have a good idea. I could try to teach."

"But. Oh never mind. Ooh. Ooh. Idea! Why dont you be my assistant in teaching?"

"Why?"

"Well, you'd get the same kids, you always bring porn, whats to loose?"

"Okay. But, um. I only have naked girl magazines and you're not gay, hopefully, not a hooker,not May, right?"

She stared at him and left.

.....

Meanwhile, Tommy was thinking of how to win back Lil. The park was Dil's idea but how would he get her there?

The phone rang. Lil walked over and answered it. "Hey hey! This 91.2 radio daze! You've been selected to try and win a prize! Come to the park in 15 minutes to claim it!" a voice said.

"Alright! Awesome. But, Dil, my phone has caller ID." Lil said.

"Do'h!" Dil said. "Come on, Lil. Tommy's sorry. Just go to the park."

"No, Dil." she said.

"I'll give you fifty bucks."

"Deal."

.....

"Pangborn said you could be my assistant." Kimi said hanging up the phone. "But thats all."

"Good enough. You know. I never thought I'd end up being a teacher. Once I hit 18, I always wished kids would go away to Mars or something. But now look at me. I'm a changed man. I wont dissapoint you." Phil said.

"Really?"

"No, not really. I'm just in it for the money, really. I hate kids." Phil said. "But besides that, I've changed."

There was a knock on the door. Phil answered it. "Someone order a hooker?" the woman asked.

"Yeah, you've changed." Kimi said sarcasticlly.

.....

Tommy saw Lil appraoch him. "Okay Tommy, make it quick, I've got 50 bucks to collect." Lil said.

"Lil, I love you but I-" Tommy looked to his left and saw a woman and man playing with a kid no older than four. He thought about how great it could be. 'Nah.' he thought. But then the kid hugged his daddy and Tommy thought some more. "Okay." he said.

"What?" Lil asked.

"Okay. Okay."

"Huh?"

"I want a baby."

"Do you really mean it?

"If you're ready, I'm ready. I love you."

"I love you too." she hugged him. "But I'm not ready. Gotta get to work."

"After work?"

"Yes."

'Oh goody!"
