Mymy has been getting impatient. Even though it has only been two days, she still didn't understand how Vera didn't manage to sell her bags yet. I mean, come on, there must be at least one desperate addict in the streets who would want to buy the drugs, right?
Then, in between classes, a notification sound comes from Mymy's phone. It's Vera. Her text said:
"I did it. Meet me at the same spot we met last time."
Mymy became as excited as she could get. She sold the drugs! Finally, she'll become rich!
After what felt like a days-long lesson, it was lunchtime, and Mymy immediately went to the aforementioned spot. There, Vera was smoking a cigarette and using her phone.
"Hey, teacher!", Mymy said.
"Oh, hello, Mymy.", Vera said when she noticed that Mymy was there.
"Did you sell the goods?"
"Yes, I did."
Mymy smiled from ear to ear.
"I see you're excited about your half of the money...", Vera said, unexcited. "Hold on..."
She then looked in her purse, and there it was: €335 worth of cash.
"Thank yoooooooou!", Mymy exclaimed as she quickly took the money off Vera's hand and put it in her pocket.
"You're welcome. Pleasure doing business, Mymy."
"Pleasure doing business!"
Mymy then got her food and went outside, still jumping in happiness inside her head.
As all of this happened, Maya, as usual, went to the roof after an extra drink and met her new friends. These past conversations have been very fruitful, with the three getting to know more and more about each other. It didn't matter what topic was being discussed, it seemed like Maya's interests matched Epke's near perfectly. The topic today, however, was politics, something that Maya didn't quite have a grasp on yet, so, for her, this was more or less of a learning experience than anything else. Still, she enjoyed it a lot.
When the school bell rang and it was time to go. However, before getting up, Epke stopped her.
"Hold on, Maya, can I ask you something?", He began.
"Sure, go ahead.", Maya replied.
"Are you gonna be busy this weekend?"
"Uhm, no, why?"
"Because I've been wanting to have us hang around town tomorrow. You know, just doing random things together."
This caught Maya off-guard. What did he mean by this?
"You're gonna bring anyone else with you?", Maya asked.
"Nah, I decided that just you and me is good enough."
"Wait a minute...", Maya thought. "Is this what I think this is...?"
"So...", Epke continued. "Does that sound like a good idea?"
"Sure, why not?", Maya replied.
"Alright, then. Here's my number, by the way, so we can plan it out after class." Koer then handed Maya a small piece of paper with his phone number on it.
"Thanks a lot, Epke, bye!", Maya said as she quickly rushed back to class.
Throughout the rest of the day, Maya could only wonder what just went on at lunchtime. Why does Epke want to hang out with her? And why both of them alone? She had a burning suspicion that this could perhaps be... a date. This excited Maya, as, if this is in fact a date, it'll be her very first.
As for Mymy... there are no words to describe how happy she was about the money that she had just earned. She never had this much cash before, and had no idea what to do with it all. She knew that she had to save a portion for her next batch of hooch and couldn't waste the rest in too much frivolous crap, but still had a million more plans on what to do with the money.
Either way, both sisters are going to be very busy from now on.
