Khari stared at me not being able to hold eye contact wit' me.

I came alone tonight truly just wanting to see her. I knew if I brought Aaliyah and Donte they'd know something was up.

"W-What drink do y-you want?" She said stuttering

I smirked.

"Nah, I'm not drinking tonight," I say,

She nodded.

"Why you not up there?" I point at the stage

She glances at the stage real quick. "I-I can't today"

I suck my teeth "Mmcht' I was tryna' see sum' " I say teasing

Her face flushed and she starts to nod.

"I was playin' wit' you," I explain

She just looks at me with a blank expression—she nods.

She was never this quiet back when we went to school wit' each other shit—at least not wimme'.

She begins to touch her hand. I look down to see her hand wrapped around with bandages.

What the fuck happen?

"What happened to yo' hand?" I question

She looks down and places it behind the table. She began to shake her head.

"You not no child Kahri—use yo' words" I stated

She stares at me with glossy eyes she then bites her bottom lip.

"I hurt it at s-school" She mumbled

"I ain't ask where you hurt it I asked what happened"  I say,

She nods and I look at her again.

"I-I mean yes," She says stuttering again

"Lemme' see yo' hand," I say,

She holds it out and I hold her hand. She moved back a little as I softly touched her knuckles.

I looked up at her and she was already looking at me. Her mouth was agape and her cheeks we're a light shade of pink.
