Flesh of My Blood-Chp79

[the nxt day, the odd couple did nothing much but just chill out in their penthouse suite, making use of the facilities in the hotel like the massage parlour, the hot springs, the steam room and even the swimming pool]

Sylvia: [just got out from doing a full body spa wen her cellphone rang] Hello?

Wander's voice: Hey, Syl. How are you and Peepers doing?

Sylvia: Oh hey, buddy. U know, just chilling. We're at Planet Vegas now, was supposed to enlist Ryder n Awesome's help, but we're taking our time. I hope ur doing OK while we're gone

Wander: Doing just fine, looking after the kids and all.

Sylvia: Cool, cool, just hope ur doing alright. I'll be meeting up with Ryder and Awesome tonight at some monster truck rally, so we can talk business

Wander: ...You got into some bow chicka wow wow, didn't you? (smirk)

Sylvia: -///- ....Shut up, you

Wander: XD

Sylvia: Neways, thanks for calling. I'll update u wen I've got the deal done with Ryder n Awesome

Wander: (like) Gotcha.

Sylvia: Bye~ [hung up, then saw a text from Awesome in her group chat]

Text: Hey, Bee! U ready for tonight's rally? Gonna come get u in abt one hour and a half

Sylvia: [texted bk] Yeah, just did a spa. Will be ready for u soon

Ryder: (text) Can't wait till you get here.

Sylvia: [text] Cool. Cya soon [scratched her chin] Now where did tht Pipsqueak go...?

Peepers: (was checking out merch people were selling around the area)

Sylvia: [wandered ard until she found him] Oh, there u are, Pipsqueak

Peepers: (sees her) (wave)

Sylvia: [approaches him] Find anything interesting u wanna get?

Peepers: (pointed to a row of army knives from one seller stand)

Sylvia: Oh, ur interested in tht?

Peepers: (writes) In case you're not around to help defend me.

Sylvia: Sounds like a fair point. Always be prepared to fend for urself, as I always say. U gonna buy that then?

Peepers: (writes) Dumb to say, but I hope I have enough for one.

Sylvia: C'mon, we won plenty from last night's Jackpot. I'm sure u got enough to get the whole set

Peepers: (nod) (turns to the seller)

Seller: Yes, can I help u, sir?

Peepers: (points to the row of army knives with dark red handles)

Seller: Ah, the Titanium Reds. U interested in that? That'll be 3,500 space credits for the whole set

Peepers: (counts out the money he had with him)

Sylvia: [whispered] Got enough?

Peepers: (sees he's only a few dollars short)

Sylvia: [forks out the balance difference] Here, a few dollars for u

Peepers: :) (hands the money to the seller)

Seller: [counts the money] Good. Do u need me to wrap it up for u, sir?

Peepers: (nod)

Seller: [does so, wrapping up the army knives set, then hands it to Peepers] Here u go, sir

Sylvia: Hmm, pretty sweet deal there, Pipsqueak

Peepers: (takes the package) :)

Sylvia: [walks with Peepers out of the store, then remembered] Oh, I almost forgot. We gotta get ready for the monster truck rally. Ryder n Awesome are gonna come pick us up in abt one and a half hours

Peepers: (raises eyebrow at mention of Awesome and Ryder) :^)

Sylvia: Oh c'mon, it's just a monster truck rally. N I need their help to do this mission of mine for Wander, remember? It's just business

Peepers: (writes) If you say so.

Sylvia: Cool. C'mon, lets get ready [takes his hand n made their way to the penthouse to get ready before they waited out at the lobby for the two guys to show up]

Peepers: (waits with her)

???: Yo, Syl!

Sylvia: [turns to the voice] Hey, Ryder! Awesome!

Peepers: (sees them)

Ryder: :) Good to see you here.

Awesome: Yeah, been a while since we seen each other face to face in the flesh

Sylvia: Oh, u guys r still quite the tease (giggle)

Peepers: :^)

Ryder: (sees Peepers) New friend of yours?

Sylvia: Yeah, sorta, but I can explain that later. Monster truck rally awaits!

Awesome: Aww yeah!! Time to watch some cars being smashed!

Ryder: :D Yeah!

Peepers: <_< (follows the group)
