Chapter 216: Trying to come back with the milk.
...Back at the other side...
"Now that we are back at my place, it is time to do this! No more wasting opportunities!" Muriel said enthusiastically.
A confused Socorro eyed him with suspicion, "Last time I've seen you this fired-up about something was when you were planning Tacito's birthday party! What's gotten into you boss?" She asked.
"Oh Coco you have no idea! It is going to be my first time so of course I am excited!" Muriel replied.
"First time what?"
"First time What?"
"I'm asking the questions Muriel."
"I'm asking the questions Muriel!"
"I'm being serious Muriel!"
"I'm being serious Muriel!"
"Stop copying what I say Muriel?! Are you 7 years old?!" A frustrated Socorro said.
"Are you 7 years old?! Haha! You should see your face coco! Hilarious!" Muriel replied laughing.
"Ugh! Whatever this is, it better be good." Socorro said pinching the bridge of her nose, "Also, what about the address you gave to Thorn? I noticed you were texting someone in the car while we were driving?"
"Oh I sent Thorn to my family's favorite Tailor shop, it is were all the suit-loving members of my family go to, I happened to have ordered one for him for his birthday but unfortunately the tailor who was a friend of my dad's, had a family emergency, so he did not complete the suit on time." Muriel replied.
"Ummm, you were planning to gift Thorn a suit?! He hates suits, unless you're planning on taking him somewhere fancy...wait, that's it, isn't it?!
Is any of your connections or fancy friends throwing another lavish party and decided to invite you last minute?!" Socorro asked, "How rude! Remember how the nobles back in our past life got so angry that we threw a ceremony to welcome Thorn and invited them last minute!
I heard gossips about my incompetence for days!" She added freaking out.
Putting both of his hands on her shoulders, "Girlie, breath! It is nothing of what you think it is, also the suits in that shop are super nice, even someone like Thorn will adore them... Anyways, I will explain everything but first I need to call another friend of my family!" Muriel replied before pulling his phone, dialing a number.
Few seconds and the call connected, "Oh hey Auntie Lora! It is me! Muriel Spencer! Yes long time no see indeed! I was wondering if you still at the courthouse!" Muriel said while walking around.
"The courthouse?!" Socorro said surprised.
...Meanwhile...
After dropping Muriel and Socorro back at Muriel's place, Thorn glanced one last time at his phone to see the text about the address Muriel gave him so he can get him that mysterious 'something', he had a feeling he wouldn't really like where he's going, especially since Muriel insisted on not telling him as a surprise.
"I wonder why he's being mysterious about it, I hope it's nothing too serious?" Thorn said while driving off.
But before he could make it far, his phone started ringing.
"What now?" He picked-up the call without checking who it was since he needed to keep his eyes ahead of him while driving, so he decided to speak formally until he knows who it is.
Thorn: Hello This is Thorn Tang speaking?
???: It's been a while my little baby lizard!
-With wide Eyes, Thorn turned his head to see who's calling him, but it was an unknown number,
Of course it was, since he has blocked the previous phone number of the voice's owner.
Thorn: The fuck?!
???: Take it easy Son, No need to use strong language!
Thorn: Strong language?! *Scoffing* BITCH GET OFF MY PHONE!
???: AYE?! YOU DON'T TALK TO YOUR MOTHER THAT WAY YOUNG MAN!
Thorn: NAH-AH!
???: THE FUCK YOU MEAN NAH-AH?!
Thorn: Bitch I'm hanging-up! It wasn't nice knowing you still kicking and breathing! Tanisha!
Tanisha: Wait wait wait now hold on child! Look I'm sorry for being a bitch! I didn't mean to yell back and shit, I just don't like getting disrespected like that! You're my kid! Cut me some slack little man! I'm trying to have a civilized conversation with you!
Thorn: You're dululu, and you need a reality check! I ain't finna cut you SHIT BITCH! Do you have any idea how disrespected I feel right now?! You and that deadbeat motherfucker who calls himself my dad, legit abandoned me! I haven't seen y'all in years! Ever since I took over that stupid company you guys gave me, you two just disappeared! Poof!
You used to at least come see me on my birthday once a year, but even that you stopped doin it! So forgive me Tanisha for not treating you like a mother should be! Probably because you haven't been treating me like a son should be!
Tanisha: Look, I know your dad and I messed-up...
Thorn: Fucked-up.
Tanisha: Yeah, we fucked-up, big Time too... we just felt like you don't need us no more! you're a strong man and you're making it on your own.
Thorn: Gurl?! Even when you were around, you weren't much of a help, of course I didn't need you! I had to make it on my own cuz neither of you stuck around! I wanted you guys to be part of my fucking life, but all y'all did was give me money to make me shut-up! I felt disgusted with it!
Tanisha: Listen Thornie, baby!
Thorn: I ain't your baby, Hoe! and you ain't my mother no more, get lost!
Tanisha: Please don't hang-up! Please! I gotta tell you something extremely important!
- Sighing, Thorn decided to park aside, he was starting to lose focus on driving and didn't want to put himself in danger just because he's angry.
Tanisha: Hello? Son are you still there?
Thorn: Fine, I'm gonna give you a chance to talk, but first stop calling me son, and second! If you're in some kinda trouble and you're only calling me for help, you better hang-up yourself cuz I don't have any intention of helping you out with anything!
I got a life now, things to look forward to and people that actually love me! I don't need you or Want you and the other loser whom I share DNA with in my life anymore, especially not if you're gonna be nothing but trouble!
Tanisha: I swear on your great aunt Latisha's honor I ain't finna cause you no trouble child! just listen to me cuz I got you a proposal and you can reject it when I'm done talking, but First pleeeeeeease listen!
Thorn: Go ahead Tanisha...
Tanisha: Is it okay if you don't call me by my name? It's kinda weird...
Thorn: Okay I'm hanging-up!
Tanisha: Nonono! I'm sorry... it's okay, call me Tanisha, it's better than using the B word anyways.
Thorn: Your chance is slipping Tanisha!
Tanisha: Alright! Ok, ummm...look don't start screaming but Your dad, I mean 'Tor' and I...we kinda of well, got back...together?
-Taking the deepest breath he could ever take, Thorn prepared his lungs.
Thorn: WHAT THE FUCK YOU TWO?! ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME NOW?! I'M 29 TANISHA! YOU GUYS SPLIT RIGHT AFTER YOU FUCKIN HAD MY FUCKIN ASS YOU FUCKIN ASSHOLES?! AND NOW YOU'RE BACK FUCKIN?!
Tanisha: Easy baby! Take a deep breath!
Thorn: I TOOK A DEEP BREATH ALREADY SO I CAN SCREAM AT YOU?!
Tanisha: Then I guess you should take another...cuz I'm pregnant, and it's from him too.
Thorn: TANISHA KIARA MOTHERFUCKING ROBERTSON?! WHAT FUCKIN DRUGS ARE YOU ON?!
Tanisha: Aww you still remember my full name!! Does that mean you still care too?
Thorn: I'm gonna shoot you and that Prick head who knocked your old ass up!
Tanisha: Old?! I look younger than half 20 years old girls out there!
Thorn: THANKS TO ALL THE FUCKIN BOTOX AND SURGERIES! TANISHA!
Tanisha: Damnit, you just Looooove to scream, don't you child?
Thorn: I INHERITED THAT FROM YOU BITCH!
Tanisha: And here I thought he wouldn't call me a bitch again...ugh, just so you know! Your dad and I, I mean Tor and I are seriously serious about each other now.
We both got together by accident after we both went through ugly divorces with our ex spouses! And we realized we're right for each other after all!
Thorn: No shit Sherlock! No wonder you got divorced! You two both suck!
Tanisha: *Scoffing* I divorced my ex-husband not the other way around! So I don't suck! Though your dad did get divorced by his ex...
Thorn: Both of your exes have Dodge a bullet! You think I'm just gonna be happy with you guys?! You and that Asshole RUINED MY LIFE!
Tanisha: Is it really ruined though? You said you have a life now, you're even dating that cutie pie 'Spencer boy'! He's super cute btw! Although I'm kinda worried about him, he's been going to that fancy hospital quite a lot!
Is he like sick or something?
Thorn: wait...how the fuck do you know about Muriel?!
Tanisha:..Umm...your dad hired a PI like a private investigator?
Thorn: I FUCKIN KNOW WHAT A PI IS BITCH?! WHY DID HE HIRE ONE THOUGH?! YOU GUYS WERE SPYING ON ME?!
Tanisha: To be fair, your dad was terrified to approach you himself to see how you're living, since it's been...too long since last time we visited.
Thorn: YOU MEAN FUCKIN YEARS?
Tanisha: He did it out of good intentions I swear! Although I did tell him it was a bad idea...but just so you know, we totally approve of your life! You're killing it right now!
Thorn: You two, ARE FUCKING PSYCHOS!...I WILL MAKE SURE YOU NEVER SEE MY BABIES!
Tanisha: Babies?...oh wait, oh my good GOD! Is that Honey pie of yours pregnant?! AAAAAAAH?! I'M GONNA BE A GRANDMA! WOOHOO! HELL YEAH! GRANDMA TANISHA IS IN THE BUILDING! Or should I have them call me Granny Tani? It's cute isn't it?!
Thorn: You need help, mental help!
Tanisha: Aww don't be embarrassed! This is great! remember my proposal? I was gonna ask you and your beautiful partner to come over today for a family dinner! Your dad and I decided to host a new year's eve dinner in your honor!
Thorn: What makes you think I'll agree to that bullshit?!
Tanisha: You don't have to agree, but it'll be nice to have you around...give us a chance to redeem ourselves, Thorn!
Thorn: I'm gonna hang-up, you're crazy.
Tanisha: No Wait!
*Beeb*
Thorn took another deep breath, as his anger started to fade with the air, the anger was getting replaced with an overwhelming wave of sadness, and next thing he knew, he bursted into tears.
...Meanwhile...
"Uh-huh! Mmm, yes! That would be wonderful! Thank you auntie Lora! I will be there upon agreed time! Bye-Bye!" Muriel replied then ended the call.
Socorro was now a bit worried as she watched Muriel's big smile turn into a big frown.
"Hey? What's gotten into you?" She asked, "I think Thorn is feeling sad...maybe I should call the whole thing off...it cannot be the suit that is making him sad, right?" Muriel replied.
"To be honest, idk..." Socorro replied.
Suddenly, Muriel's phone started ringing, he glanced over but didn't recognize the number, so he took a quick deep breath and accepted the call then put the phone on speaker so Socorro can hear too.
*Beeb*
Muriel: Hello, this is Muriel Spencer speaking! How can I be of service?
???: umm...well hello, there?
Muriel: Who are you sir?
???: I...ummm....
Muriel: Sir if you do not respond soon, I will end the call.
???: No! Hold on...my Name is...Tor
Muriel: Do I Know you?
???: Probably not...I'm Thorn's dad!
- "He's What?!" A surprised Socorro nearly yelled at Muriel.
Tor: Hello?...Muriel?
Muriel: Uh, Sir? how did you get my number?
Tor: About that...I might have to start this conversation by apologizing to you.
