A promise.
It seems like the simplest thing in the world to keep. But so often, they're broken, empty and hollow.
They seem like the easiest thing in the world to believe, but after the words are left out to bleed, after they leave you waiting and...

"Hey pooh! Where you at?" Kash answered Aryn's call with a smile on her face. They had a self care night planned, which would just consist of them doing face masks in cute pajamas and watching movies while drinking wine and watching Waiting to Exhale and probably Dreamgirls.
"Hey babe, I'm so sorry," she prefaced and Kash's smile dropped.
"Sorry? How come?" she wondered.
"I can't make it, Kash. I gotta go home, s-something happened to my Pawpaw," she sniffed.
"What?! Is he okay?! Oh my goodness Aryn, I'm sorry. When's your flight?" she asked in an alarmed tone. Aryn was very big on family and the fact that something happened and she wasn't there was probably killing her inside.
"He's in the hospital he had to have emergency surgery but I gotta go see him. My flight leaves in an hour and I'm almost to the airport,"
"Okay good! Good, let me know when you take off and please let me know when you get there. I'm praying for him, baby," Kash said and Aryn thanked her with a sad smile. "I love you okay? Be safe mama,"
"Thank you, best. I'll see you soon, I love you more," she replied and they hung up their call.
Sighing, Kash looked around at all the stuff she had to clean and put away since Aryn wasn't coming anymore and prepare to be alone for the night, since her dad and Anaya were in Macon visiting Anaya's family.
Then she remembered. "Oh duh, I have a boyfriend now," she chuckled and pulled out her phone to see that he finally responded to the tiktok she sent him.
siah💘: i wanna pop a titty 🙂 now what?
She bursted out laughing, remembering exactly what tiktok it was and she shook her head, replying and ready to make him come over.
: kasiahhh siah💘: huh : im sad 🥺 siah💘: awwww whats the matter stank 🥺🥺🥺
She laughed loudly again, because he was making fun of her. Very obviously too. She called him stink and he hated it, and she stayed using that emoji for everything so it wasn't at all hard to tell that he was mocking the way she texted.
: LMAO stop making fun of me! im sad! siah💘: aight my bad. what's wrong P?
She took that as an invitation to call his phone with the best sad eyes she could muster and he picked up the phone and sucked his teeth.
"Man Sadé—what you want? You always giving somebody that damn face when you want something," he chuckled.
"Nothing! I just want you to come over!" she pleaded her case. "Aryn has a family emergency and we were supposed to have a girl's night now I'm all lonely at my house, so come,"
