It's been two weeks and I've still haven't spoken to
Devin. My mom and Aniya are shocked, but I gotta
show everybody this. Im sick of seeming like I'm so
weak inna knees.
Every single day, he has sent some gesture to show
that he wants me. All these gifts are appreciated but
they dont matter, ian want or need nun from you. I
jus want you. I got my own shit.
Yesterday , he sent me 400 dollars. "I wonder what
he finna send today." My mama said as she cooked.
Aniya nodded, "Girl I woulda went back after the
two telfar bags and bussdown wig. You strong."
I tapped my fingers on the table. They dont know
how bad im tryna hold myself together.
"It really seems like he likes you." My mom added.
I sighed, "He got a funny way of showing it."
"Well if youn like his way of showin it, he can shole
show me it." She laughed. Aniya laughed wit her.
I scrolled through my phone as they kept talkin bout
the gifts. I looked at the 10 emails this nigga sent me.
He is really crazy. They were all tellin me to unblock
him. Because of him, I had to block Runtz and Marco
cus he was using their phone to call me.
You don't act like that over your 'lil sis'.
The door bell ringed and I got up to get it. When I
opened the door, nobody was there. I looked down
and saw a box sitting on the ground. The box was
small and white, I picked it up and looked inside.
A necklace was inside, real gold this time, with the
letter D on it it. My stomach started feelin weird.
Under the necklace was a envelope. I inside was
a small letter that said, im picking you at 8, ma. i
dont care what you doing. just be ready.
When I walked back inside, I tried hiding my smile
but it was hard. Aniya and my mom looked at me,
my dad was also in the kitchen now. "Well what is
it?" My mom asked. "A date." I smirked.
"I know tha righttt!" Aniya screamed. She jumped
up and hugged me. "Im glad you making him work
for it." She said. My dad looked up, "Make who
work for what?"
My mama looked at him, "Her mystery man."
My dad rolled his eyes. "Dont settle for just any
man now. You gotta know your worth. Jus cus he
buying you shit don't mean he really want you."
He ranted. Fucking hilarious coming from you. I
really ain wanna hear shit he gotta say.
"No Joe, he really like her." My mama said. He
jus scoffed, "These boys ain want nun from her but
one thing. You need to stay woke." I realized that
he was already drunk. I jus kept quiet. "You think
niggas really want you Jas?" He added.
"Thas enough Joe!" My mama snapped.
"Dont get loud wit me! Im jus warnin her ass foe
she go head over heels for this bum nigga!" He got
in her face. That right there made my blood boil.
