"Well, damn."

I call Brandon and he answers on the second ring.

"Are you okay?" I asked Brandon.

I hear him chuckle through the phone. "I'm fine!"

"Good,"

"You've heard about the other trade rumors?"

"No, who else?"

"JC and Larry may be going to the Cavs."

"Awe damn,"

"You know what that means right?" Brandon asked.

I hum before replying with a simple no.

"Well either Jordan and Imani break up, or she moves with him to Cleveland!"

I let out a sigh. "I've never even thought about Imani leaving me to be with her boo..."

I sigh again. "I guess we have to talk about that then,"

After talking for a while, Brandon and I get off the phone.

Imani and I literally are never apart. I'm willing to let her go with Jordan.

I walk to Imani's room and I sit on her bed.

"Hey!" I say holding the 'ey' for a few seconds.

"Hello!" Imani replies holding the 'o' for a few seconds.

"Well, I just got off the phone with Brandon an-"

"Oh, Brandon huh?" My sister winks at me.

I feel the heat rising to my cheeks.

"Oh my goodness!" I giggle. "Yes Brandon, my same old friend Brandon!"

"Mhm, continue!" Imani says smacking her lips.

"Jordan could possibly be traded to the Cavs..."

"Oh, yeah. Jordan and I were talking about that. Of course, I won't go if you don't want me to!"

"I think you sho-" I get inturuppred by my phone going off.

Brandon is calling me.

I answer his call.

"Hell-"

"Hey Trin, I forgot to mention, you can move in with me if you want, okay bye!" Brandon speaks quickly and then he ends the call.

I look at Imani smiling from ear to ear.

"What?"

"I think Brandon just asked me to move in with him?" I say hesitantly.

She laughs out loud.

"But y'all aren't dating!"

"It's a friendly thing."

"No bitch, y'all be on the phone for hours and when you're not on the phone you're texting or on a mini date!"

"Shut up, honestly!"

"You fancy him, just admit it!"

I cross my arms.

"Stop bullying me!"

"Say it, 'I fancy Brandon-' what's his middle name?"

"Xavier."

"Okay, say 'I fancy Brandon Xavier Ingram!'"

"I guess. I fancy Brandon Xavior Ingram!"
