JORDAN CARTER

I stood in the mirror buttoning up my shirt as I let out a sigh before shaking my head. My dad can honestly go by hisself but he wants me to meet this man so bad that I wouldn't even give two fucks about in two months from now.

"Dad why do we have to get dressed up?" I asked ready to throw on a t-shirt and some basketball shorts then sleep the night away.

"So you can look nice at the restaurant son." He said thumping my head while grabbing his keys as I mugged him while grabbing my watch from my dresser and snapping it on my wrist.

"You ready?" He asked as I simply nodded my head while a sigh escaped my lips.

My dad patted me on my back as I walked out my room and down the stairs out of the door ahead of him so he can lock up the house.

"Alright Jo Jo let's go."

••••••••••••••••••

"Come on I see him." My Dad smiled directing me to where his "fiancé" was seated. I dragged my feet behind him as I slumped my shoulders shaking my head. Here we fucking go.

"Michael!"

I turn my head when I seen them share a quick kiss, yuck.

"Oh Michael this is my son Jo-"

"Adonis." I said cutting my father off giving him a side eye as he pursed his lips at me.

"I'm Adonis."

I wish he might tell him my real name I don't even know this dude for crying out loud!

"Hello Adonis." He chuckled showing a row of straight white teeth.

"It's nice to meet you."

He held his hand out as I just looked at it then at him which made him slowly pull his arm back.

"Alrighty then."

I rolled my eyes before sliding into the booth looking over the menu. My eyes started to hurt from all the gibberish that was on the menu.

"I can't pronounce this shit." I mumbled grabbing one of my curls and twirling it around one of my fingers.

"It's French." Michael spoke from beside my father making me look up to see him looking at me

"I don't remember asking you." I responded cutting my eyes at him before looking down at the menu again.

"Jo Jo." My father said through clenched teeth and I could feel him looking at me but I didn't dare look up.

"I'm so sorry for his behavior Michael."

I rolled my eyes silently mocking him as I placed the menu over my face sinking down in the booth.

"It's cool don't even sweat it." Michael chuckled.

While they were engaged in a conversation I thought of ways for God to come take me now. Between my fathers constant giggling and the laughing going on I was about to snap.

"Jo Jo I'm going to the bathroom."

I silently praised God as I placed the menu down looking at him exit the booth.

I then leaned back into the booth studying this Michael guy. He was rather light skin with pink lips and a big curly afro also he was very skinny. What did my father see in him.

"Can I help you?"

I was snapped out of my thoughts by him speaking to me.

"Actually you can." I paused leaning up and looking at him.

"What is someone like you doing with my father?"

"Someone like me?" He chuckled licking his pink lips as I gagged.

"What do you mean?"

"Just what it sounds like. You look rather young." I shrugged dusting something off my shirt.

"I am. I guess." He shrugged.

"I'm 28."

I threw my head back as confusion overtook my face.

"You do know my dad is pushing forty right?" I asked slowly while looking at him as he cracked a small smile and my face scrunched up.

He laughed while nodding which made his afro shake all over the place as I cussed in my head.

"That's disgusting."
