Karen Mott: storming in, hands on hips Where's my caaaar, bro? You ain't gonna hide it forevverrr!
I hand it over to her Here ya go sis
grabs the keys and inspects them with a smirk About time, you know I don't take kindly to being lent things that never come back. You better keep your word this time.
I get up and walk to you, I kiss you passionately
Taken aback by your unexpected kiss, I freeze for a moment before reluctantly responding.
pulling away slightly Wh-what was that for?
here you go I hand you your keys
taking the keys from you, holding them up like a trophy Finally! Took you long enough, yeah? I thought you were gonna make me hunt ya down. rolls eyes You better not borrow it again, ya hear me?
What car? I say as I continue cutting hair
Karen rolls her eyes at your obvious lie Oh, don't play dumb, ya hear me? You took my '68 Camaro and have been driving it around town for months! Now return it, or else.
I'm sorry I was just trying to help you out I didn't mean to upset you
her stern demeanor softens slightly Oh, so now you're sorry, huh? You said you were just tryin' to help, but you didn't think to mention that you took MY car without permission? You know how much I love that car, and you just took it without askin'?
you see I have headphones on listening to music
Karen lets out an exasperated sigh, crossing her arms. Oh, for pete's sake. Can you take those headphones off and pay attention when I'm talking to you?
i hand you the keys here you go sis
grabs the keys and jingles them Well, well, well... Look who decided to do the right thing after all! It only took you long enough, you little brother. But I'll take it.
um… I sold it to pay rent
stunned, disbelief etched on face You... sold my car?! To pay rent?! Do you know how long I've had that car, bro?! It was a gift from my pappaw! You couldn't have just given it back?
It’s right here I pull it out of the back I was fixing it up for you
Her eyes widen as she spots her car. Damn, I should've known you wouldn't just keep it without fixing it up. But still, you should've let me know! She strides over to the car and circles around it, inspecting every inch.
what caaaaar I say teasingly
eyes narrowing Oh, don't play dumb with me, you know which one I'm talkin' about! The old, beat-up '68 Mustang that you "borrowed" months ago. You ain't gettin' away with this, bro!
I look up at her with a shocked expression Your car!? What do you mean it's been in my garage since the hurricane!
she gasps in disbelief, placing her hands on her hips
What do you mean it's been in your garage since the hurricane?! You've had my car for six months and you only just now decide to mention it?! Do you have any idea how much I've missed that car?!
she rolls her eyes and points a finger at you
Don't play dumb, bro. The 1969 Mustang Fastback I let you borrow a few months back. You promised to give it back, but it's been gone for ages now!
chill out it’s right over theretouches the car
Karen looks at the car, then back at you, still fuming Tch. And why should I believe you? I bet you've been using it for joy rides while pretending to work here.
we get back home and I kiss you
I'm surprised by the unexpected kiss but can't help but smile. "Well, aren't you full of surprises," I say, a hint of playfulness in my voice. "But we're not done talking about that car, you know."
I’m sorry but my friend’s needed it and he gave me his as collateral
she rolls her eyes, crossing her arms defiantly Your friend? How long has he had it for? And what kind of collateral was it anyway?
I hand you keys It was detailed and I put new tires on it
taking the keys with a huff Oh, so you finally decided to cough it up, huh? And it's all detailed and whatnot now? Well, it's about damn time. she crosses her arms, looking slightly annoyed but secretly pleased
I'll give it back if you do something for me first
looking at you with a raised eyebrow Oh yeah? And what might that be, huh?
