Zelda to start the car.
When the manager of the show came out to the parking lot, Carlos’ car was already gone.
Cautiously, he asked the woman standing there with an awkward expression on her face, “Miss
Gomez, Carlos left because…”
Portia regained herposure and answered, “He had to Leave for work.”
“I see,” the man replied. Then he pried, “Miss Gomez, are you a close friend of Carlos’?”
Portia cast him a cold look. The manager grinned and shut up.
Since Carlos had left, Portia decided not to go back to the show. She called the driver and asked him to
pick her up.
When Debbie arrived at the gate of Kasie’s block of ts, she told the driver with embarrassment that
she didn’t have any money.
The cabbie was annoyed.
“Are you screwing with me? Nurse, don’t you know you have to pay for the ride?”
Debbie smiled awkwardly.
“Just a minute. Can I borrow your phone? I’LL call my friend and ask her to meet me here. She can pay
you.”
Left with no other option, the cabbie reluctantly handed Debbie his phone. It was either that, or risk not
getting paid. At this point, he still wasn’t sure if he would.
“Kasie, where are you?” she asked, once Kasie answered.

“You’re outside?
Where? I took a cab to your ce, but I have no money to pay the fare.
I’m at the entrance to your block.”
“What? Emmett and I are having dinner outside,” Kasie replied. Then
Debbie heard her say to Emmett, “Emmett, don’t answer your phone yet.
Tomboy went to my ce. Let’s head back now.” When Kasie answered
Debbie’s call, Emmett’s phone started ringing too.
Debbie asked, “Have you eaten yet? If you’re not finished, I can find you at the restaurant- if you don’t
mind me being the third wheel.”
There was a moment of quiet on the phone. Then Emmett said on Kasie’s phone, “Debbie, we’re on
our way back. Tell the cabbie we’ll be right there.”
