I slip my feet into my Nike two strap slides before grabbing my jacket & bag, heading downstairs.
The house is pretty quite right now, seeing as how Shawn and Aimee are on the way to visit her mother's grave. It's been a couple of weeks since Aimee's birthday party. Shawn had a sit down and explained to Aimee the best way you could possible explain this to a two year old. But Aimee being as smart as she is had no problem following along, and agreeing with going to see her mom.
Shawn wanted me to go with them, but I think it's important Aimee shares this moment with her father only.
"I'm ready BB" Halle said coming down the stairs.
"Okay. Let's go."
We both headed down to the car garage, before entering my car and pulling off. We are on our way downtown to meet my godfather for lunch. He just wanted to check up on me and make sure everything was going good.
"Hi bumble bee." Idris greeted once we approached the table.
"Hi." I beamed wrapping my arms around him. I've always loved my godfathers hugs, and it's been so long since I've had one.
"Hey there Halle." Idris spoke once we pulled away from our hug.
"Hi" Halle shyly said. I low key thinks she has a crush on my uncle, which is funny.
"Y'all sit down."
We all sat down, and the waitress came up to the table and took our drink orders.
"So how have you been?" I asked.
Idris smiled before answering. "Things have been going great. Business is amazing right now. I also have met someone very special." He smirked.
"Who?" I questioned with my eyebrow raised.
"Calm down bumble bee." He laughed. "We've been dealing with each other for a while now."
I shrugged my shoulders. "That means absolutely nothing to me. What's her name?" I questioned.
The waitress interrupted our conversation while putting down our drinks. We all went ahead and placed our food orders.
"Her name is Sabrina. I met her at a club one night. She is very sweet. I told her all about you, and she can't wait to meet you. I think you two will get along very well." Idris finished.
"Mhm" I scoffed. "I'll be the judge of that." I playfully but seriously said. My godfather hasn't had the best luck in women. He is a handsome man but most of the women he dated only wanted him for his money, and not the great person he is.
Idris laughed. "I know you'll interrogate the hell out of her, but she's tough, she'll be able to take it." He smiled.
Our waiter bought our food out and we continued to make small talk while eating.
"I have a question." Halle said once we were about to leave.
I wish she would have spoke up sooner because a nigga got the itis and all I want to do now is go home and take a nap.
"Yeah?" I said.
"I want to go visit my mom" Halle said shocking us both.
"Really?" Idris asked.
Halle nodded her head. "I've been thinking about it a lot. I mean we talk on the phone, but I would like to ask her some things in person. Finally get closure on everything." Halle responded.
"Sweetie you know I'm going to support you in whatever you do. Are you 100% sure about this?" I questioned.
"Yes BB." Halle answered.
