Justin and Marissa got ready to go see Chris. It had been a while Marissa had paid a visit and she missed him alright. Justin offered to accompany her and in the last minute canceled because Karen called him. Again.
Marissa could not hide her dissatisfied looks. He apologized over and over and she just simply told him to go ahead and attend to his mother since it was really important.
Things like these weren't new to Marissa but every time it happened, she still got disappointed although she saw it coming.
"How about I drop you off before leaving?" he suggested.
She shook her head. "Not to worry, I'll call Aaron to see if he is free."
"Are you mad at me?"
"Its okay dimples. I'll be fine. I'm sure Karen needs you more than I do."
"Thank you," he said and gave her a brief hug."Take care of you."
"Your boyfriend is an ass," Aaron said to Marissa the moment he set his eyes on her.
"Stop it," she replied pushing him a little.
