"Dammit!!" I cursed at the traffic.. "Dammit, dammit, dammit!!" I sighed, hitting my steering wheel repeatedly. "Why did Rick came back into the picture? We were doing absolutely well without him.." I sighed again and hit my steering wheel forcefully.. it honked, it wasn't on purpose, and everyone turned around to look at me.. I flipped them off, I was definitely NOT in the mood.
I finally reached the building and got out of my car, not really caring where or how I parked it.. what if I got a ticket? I didn't freaking care.. I'd pay it, and go on with life.. it's not like it's going to kill me.. on the other hand, they can tow my car away.. I grunted and got back inside my car, parking it 'politically correct'. I sighed, for the gazillionth time today, and ran inside the building.
"Miss!!" I heard someone yell.. to me? I don't know.. was that going to stop me from running as fast as I could to Lizzie? Oh no, I don't think so..
"MISS!!" 'it' yelled again. I turned around, growling.
"WHAT?!" I closed my eyes and rubbed my temples. "What?" I said softly.
"I'm Brian Littrell--"
"See if I freaking care!" I started to walk away again.
"I know where Liz is.." Liz, that was my main concern.
"Oh.." my expression softened. "Listen, I'm sorry.. I tend to get a little jumpy whenever I'm worried.." I smiled apologetically and he nodded as we walked inside the elevator..
"I understand.. listen, we think that Mikey's dad took him.." I nodded. "Do you know where he lives?" I shook my head.. I was about ready to cry, but then that little light bulb inside my head turned on.
"Wait a second.." I took my cell phone out and dialed a number quickly. "Randy? Hey, how are ya? Good.. listen, I'm organizing some papers and I'm missing some information on someone.. you think you can give it to me?"
"What are you doing?" Brian whispered, but I quickly shut him up.
"Yeah.. place of residence and work.. uh-huh.. Rick Thompson.. ok" I bit my lower lip anxiously, my frown turning later into a smile. "Thanks Randy!! I owe you one!!" I was ready to hang up. "What, a date?" I chuckled nervously. "Um.. I'll get back to you on that one.." I quickly hung up, I couldn't deal with this now.
"What was that?" Brian asked, his eyes opened widely.
"Being a social worker has its advantages.." I smiled and leaned back on the elevator walls as I waited for the doors to open. "Liz must be a nervous wreck.." I said to myself and closed my eyes.
