Friday night couldn't arrive fast enough because you had been working since Saturday night, and you looked forward to just getting some rest.
You've been working a Security job since early October because of all the protest marches that have been occurring in the city. The pay is okay, but the overtime really helps.
So you're about to watch some NBA games when you get a phone call from your buddy...Ricky. There's a lot of noise in the background and Ricky wants to know if you can cover his shift?
To add insult to injury, he's telling you about this great party with Instagram type women, and he slip his mind to invite you.
Nevertheless, you agree to cover since you can really use the money.
So you find yourself in a virtually empty train station waiting for the South bound 6# train. You're still tired so you walk towards the rear to sit down and all of a sudden you hear a feminine voice.
It's a young lady asking you how do you get to Canal Street (which is actually your stop)? She is trying to meet up with some friends who are attending a party in that area.
So, you explain you're heading that way and end up talking with her all the way (even walking her to the club, which is about 6 blocks out of your way).
She invites you in, but you have to report to work to cover for Ricky (at least you got her number).
