i went to my bathroom to freshen up because i was crying, stressed, and sweating. i heard the door closing meaning kobe left.
i laid my outfit down as i went to go pick out the shoes. just as i picked them out my mom came into my room.
"what is your dad's mom doing here?" she asked me. "she was already working for kobe when i got here," i shrugged.
"you sure she's not here to get you from the inside?" my mom whispered to me. "i know you just got back so you might be a little paranoid, but from what i can see she's being a guide," i explained.
"what kind of guide?" my mom asked. "telling us how their gang worked, she's helped me so much," i smiled. "oh," my mom said a little off but i chose to ignore it seeing as she's been held prisoner by a gang for a couple years-
she left and i turned back to my outfit, continuing to get ready and putting it on...

i smiled as i looked at my reflection in the mirror. when kobe takes me out he'll be overprotective as fuck today. i laughed at my thoughts before sprinkling a little body glitter on the top of my chest.
i did a spin in the full body mirror to boost up my confidence a little before walking out the door. once again they waited for me at the bottom of the stairs.
kobe brought me into his arms and pecked me on my lips. i smiled at him then my mom stepped in.
"so this is your man?" she asked. "it's complicated," i explained. "awe ok," she nodded.
we went out to the car and he opened the passenger door for me. i got in and he went to the other side and got in.
he locked the doors and exhaled before looking at me,
"so about your mom-" "so about my mom-"
we both said at the same time...
"you go first," i said putting on my seatbelt. "do you think i'd have to ever ask for her blessing since your dad is out of the picture?" he asked and i choked on air.
"not for marriage," he corrected putting on his seatbelt and i laughed awkwardly.
"oh, well i don't think so... she just got back. plus you got mike and iris's blessings," i shrugged. "you right," he said nodding.
"what were you going to say?" he asked me.
"i don't wanna talk to mike about it because he'll get defensive," i began and kobe nodded. "but i think my mother might be here up to something," i said and kobe tilted his head at me.
"come on des, that's your mom," he said and i nodded.
"i know, but something just seems off. i'm going to keep an open mind just in case," i said and he shook his head starting the car.
"so where we going now?" i said looking at my watch, it's around 10 now.
"my place," he smiled. "you mean the one we just left?" i smiled with sarcasm.
"nope, my other one," he said turning into a circular driveway.
he pressed a button on his car that opened the garage door. he parked and helped me out the car.
he unlocked the door to the house and once i seen the interior my eyes watered...
