   So it's been a month since Zayne & I started staying with my grandma . We've been doing so well , we were doing things we did as a family before my dad died , i really loved it there. Ace and I gotten so much closer , we facetime everyday , text everyday we be linking almost every weekend. He's 20 years old so i don't know if anything between us will be happening idk i kind of like him but maybe that's because i just like having him around n stuff . Zayne got invited to a birthday party today , one of his friends from class . I am so glad zayne started making friends . ever since we moved away from our mom , he just became more open to other kids in his class . Ace ... well Kasim is coming with us to the birthday party , he's taking us my grandma ain't wanna go at all , she wanted to stay home and finish her lil shows

" Zay are you ready boo ?" i said walking into his room
"yessss Nana" she said running up to me
He looked so adorable he was wearing a black Nintendo hoodie , black ripped jeans & black and white low vans
i just put on some boyfriend jeans , my jordan high 1s & and oversized graphic tee
while i was walking downstairs Kasim called me

Nali : heyy
Kasim : hey mamas im outside
Nali : kkays

Zy & I walked downstairs, then kissed our grandmother goodbye then just headed out the door

"hey Kasi" i said cheesing while getting into the car after putting zy in the back
"mamas what i tell you about that nickname" she said laughing
"it's cute right zy" i said turning back , but he was too focused on his tablet to even be paying attention to our conversation
"well forget you" i said turning back around
i then saw Kasim recording me
"dang who dat in my passenger seat" he said smiling
i covered my face instantly, "stopppp Kasiiiii" i said while also pushing his phone away
"what ? you look good ma i can't show you off ?" he said
"no im not your girl" i said laughing
"you don't gotta be my girl for me to show your beautiful ass off , im tryna make you feel good & appreciated" he said pulling off
