Excerpt:
Chapter Four
Justice pulled her car into the parking lot of Shady Groves Park she absolutely loved to run at this park. It had a nice trail full of trees, it was peaceful and, she could run freely without being stopped by cars. Shady Grover ran a full circle around the downtown area it was the biggest park in Gulf Port many people visited the park everyday to run, walk, or just have a seat on the many benches scattered throughout the park. She always meet up with Kiki on Saturday and Sunday mornings to do a six mile run. Kiki pulled in just as Justice climbed out of her car. Kiki quickly parked and got out.
“Good morning, Justice. You beat me here this morning I’m shocked. Normally I run around the whole park before you decide to even show up.” Kiki jokes.
“Well I am proud to announce that I got a good night sleep. I actually went to bed without a migraine. Can you believe it?” Justice beamed feeling refreshed. She started to do her pre stretches before the run.
“Ummm, no headache that’s odd, but good. Wait a minute is there some guy you ain’t tellin’ me about?” Kiki threw her hand on her right hip. ‘Cause you know I don’t like being in the dark.”
“There is no guy.” Justice let out a slight laugh. “Kiki you are so weird. You always think it’s a guy. Can’t a girl just feel good sometimes?”
“Umph.” Kiki sighed giving her the benefit of the doubt. “I hope one day it is about a guy.
You don’t need to be alone. Some male company could do you, good.”
“No, running these six miles can do me good. Now let’s go.” Justice took off and Kiki followed.
“Hey slow down. I am not trying to hurt none of this size six I have to take very good care of it. And running at this speed I could easily break a limb.” Kiki babbled for fun.
“Alright I guess I could slow down to our usual speed.” Justice chirped while falling into step of their normal running speed.
“So what have you been up to this week? I haven’t heard much from you. You’ve called my phone all of twice this week.” Justice asked.
“I thought I would give you a break.” Kiki smiled. “But actually I have been working a lot of extra hours for Deloris.”
“She is still out?”
“Yep. Turns out she going to have that flu for seven more months.”
“Wait a minute. She is pregnant.”
