Tucker shrugs. “It’s a thing, apparently. White car versus black car. I think the saying is more SUV-related, but same shit. A black SUV usually means the person is messy and chaotic,” Tucker explains.
“And white SUV means they are always clean with their shit together,” Levi adds.
What in the world is wrong with these two?
“This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. Which says a lot because half the shit out of both of your mouths is usually dumb.”
Tucker holds up his hands in defense. “Hey, I didn’t make it up.”
Standing there in shock, I have nothing more to say.
I’m definitely not planning on telling them the owner of the white Benz is my new neighbor. I don’t need to draw more attention to myself than necessary. Besides, I’m trying to avoid having any conversation with her if I can help it.
“You two have lost your minds,” my father chimes in, standing from the chair and throwing down a twenty-dollar bill. “Thank you for lunch. Come over for dinner one day, yeah?”
“Am I invited?” Tucker’s face lights up. “Please, say yes. Aunt Mary’s cooking is heaven-sent, and I’ll die if I don’t get it soon.”
My father laughs. “You’re welcome anytime. You know that.”
Tucker makes a fist and punches the air in success. “Uncle Gene is the shit.”
He and Levi go quiet as they scarf down the rest of their sandwiches. I’ve never seen them eat so fast in my life.
Looking down at his watch, Tucker jumps from the chair. “Shit, we’re going to be late. Our fifteen-minute break is over.”
“You only had a fifteen-minute break?” I ask, confused, looking down at my watch. “But you’ve been here for at least a half hour by now.”
“Yep. See ya, Griff.” And he’s out the door.
What…an interesting lunch crowd today.

Any new neighbor sightings? I’m waiting patiently for the text that you two are besties now.
Me
It’s never happening.
Kodi
It could if you left your house every once in a while.
Me
Who says I haven’t left my house?
