Jessie: Thanks! [she says while hugging her back]

Savannah: That last quarter was touch and go but you guys stuck with it!

Jessie: You coming to my games means a lot I really appreciate the support.

Savannah: Well, you know when my schedule permits I wouldn’t miss it for the world.

Jessie: Again, I appreciate it this was a huge win for us especially since our star player didn’t play tonight.

Savannah: Yeah, speaking of which where is Tasha?

Jessie: [awkwardly stares at her]

Savannah: [shrugging her shoulders] What’s that look for?

Jessie: Oh, you know.

Savannah: What!?

Jessie: For once can you take a break from playing thot-scotch!

Savannah: [laughing at her joke] Thot!? Oh, see now you know better I am not a thot!

Jessie: That’s how you look and act whenever you say her name.

Savannah: Look, its not like that you asked me to back off and I have, my question was purely innocent I swear, besides I’m sure I’m not the only who asked about her tonight.

Jessie: No, you’re not [she says grabbing her gym bag] but if you must know she hasn’t been feeling well the last couple of days.

Savannah: [in a concerned tone] Its, nothing serious is it?

Jessie: Naw, I spoke to her yesterday she told me she thinks its just some stomach bug going around but she’ll definitely be here next game.

Savannah: That’s good to know.

Jessie: [reaching in she gives her a quick peck on the check] Look, I have to go I have a date tonight.

Savannah: [in a surprised tone] A date? Really? Who is she!?

Jessie: Yes, and its none of you’re business. [she says smiling] I’ll talk with you later again thanks for coming! [she says while running out of the main entrance]

Savannah: [yelling after her] None of my business says who!????

Jessie: ME! [she says smiling yelling back]

Savannah: [waves to her watching her disappear through the exit]

She had just come off a 15 hour shift although, she was tired she came to the game anyway to show support for her cousin and hopefully to see Tasha. Hearing she was not feeling well she hoped to use that as an excuse to stop by and see her. Given her word to Jessie to stay away from Tasha was easier said than done, she was drawn to her and simply couldn’t help herself. Looking down at her watch she was thankful one of the best soup places in town was still opened. Getting into her car she swings by The Stockpot, picks up a large bowl of homemade creamy chicken noodle soup, then heads to her condo. While in the car she was grateful for her memory as she remembered the address to her home.
