“Hey you guys remember my niece?” Simon asked just after arriving to his shop on Wednesday morning. “She’s visiting, she’ll probably come over and say hi sometime today.”
“Uh, which one?” responded Rick as he restocked some shelves.
“Tamaya, she’s you guys’ age.”
“Oh yeah… Tamaya…” Rick glanced over to Keegan and quickly rolled his eyes. They both knew what was coming…
“You know,” Simon began, “you boys should really think about getting married and raising a family sometime…”
“Well we can’t both marry her at once,” interjected Keegan, at which Rick turned away stifling a chuckle.
“Oh no, that’s not what I’m saying at all,” Simon protested. “I’m just saying fine young men like you should be thinking about these things. Plans for the future and all that…”
A moment of awkward silence passed between the trio.
“Well, I’ll be in my office if you need me,” Simon declared before exiting the room.
As soon as he was gone Rick and Keegan snickered to each other.
“Every time…” Rick groaned.
“The sad part is I think he legitimately believes he’s being subtle…”
“Yeah. Well, so long as he doesn’t say anything like that while she’s here I won’t mind the company, it looks like it’s going to be a slow day today…”
Tamaya spent the first couple hours of the morning on Simon’s guest bed laying out everything she knew about the accident, in hopes that it would help her figure out how to proceed. Unfortunately the only thing that she could see that would’ve been able to help was the bike, and that lead had already been followed to no avail. After spending quite a bit of time getting nowhere, she got up and decided to walk to the shop and see what she could learn on the way there…
Captain America: Civil War was soooo good! I went to the 11pm showing last night, meaning I lost a lot of sleep on the one night of the week where I have an 8am class the next day. It was totally worth it though. Civil War is easily one of the best Marvel movies of all time.
Anyway…
‘Till later
