"Good morning, baby." I hear softly followed by Isaiah softly caressing my face, which I'm pretty sure looked a mess.
Battering my eyes open, adjusting to the sunlight, I greet him back.
"Good morning." I said looking at the ceiling then back at Isaiah.
"How do you feel?"
"I feel good." Still a bit tired, I lay my head on his chest and cuddle up to him. I then suddenly felt the need to check my head. Reaching up to my head, I wanted a chuckle from him.
"Don't worry baby. I told you I'd take care of you. I got you covered." He said in reference to him making sure my bonnet had been on my head.
"You made me feel so good last night." I said, my eyes closed as I laid on him.
Isaiah lightly grabbed at my face, making me look at him.
" I'm glad you thought so."
" I know so. Isaiah, I couldn't imagine it being anyone else. You knew all the right things to do and how to do it. And you were such a gentleman about it."
" Communication is key. I'm happy you chose me and not any other guy. I'm happy that you trusted me with something like that." E said placing a warm kiss on my forehead.

"So you're just now telling me this?"
"Yes mom. I couldn't think of a better time."
"How long have you guys been dating?"
"It's more than dating. Like... three weeks now."
"Ok. Well I'm glad that you chose someone you know and someone as good as him. Good men are hard to come by nowadays. Isaiah has always loved you from the minute I brought you home and he will keep loving you like no other."
"I know. I love him too. Oh... I also let him take my virginity."
"What?! When?!"
"Last night."
"Are you comfortable talking about it?"
"Well.. I don't mind I guess."
"What happened?"
"Well, uhm... I don't think I'll be able to go into detail. But Isaiah took care of me. He made sure I was comfortable and he made sure he had my consent."
"Aww, Isaiah is such a good young man. Well, I don't mind the two of you guys being together. I just ask that you have kids after college."
"Ma! No one is thinking of kids."
"Good."
Just as we finished talking, the doorbell rung.
"I'll get it." My mom said heading towards the door.
Once the door opening, I heard the sound of what seemed like many bags. Curious, I got up and left the kitchen. Once in the main hallway that led to the front door, I was greeted by a smiling Isaiah.
"Hey baby. I got you some things for college."
"Isaiah, why is there so much. You act like I'm moving away. My school is less than 15 minutes away."
"This is stuff you'll need."
"Isaiah, Minha raises you so well." My mom said patting his back as she closed the front door.
"Let's take this stuff upstairs." I said grabbing some bags from him and heading up to my room.
We sat in my room and began to organize through the stuff.
"Isaiah, why did you get so much?"
"This is stuff you'll need. Books, pens, pencils. An organizer for all of your stuff. A new bag. Oh and this." He said handing me a wrapped box.
"And what is this?" I say, unwrapping the box. Underneath the wrapping revealed a white box. Not just any white box but the box of a a Mac book pro 16".
"OH MY GOD ISAIAH!!!! This is like almost 3000$!!! Why did you get this?!"
"Well you needed a new laptop so I wanted to get you the best one."
"I already owe you so much."
"Baby, you don't owe me a thing. I sis this for you because I wanted to. That does not constitute any form of repayment."
"Shh. We need to take a moment of silence because I know your wallet is on it's death bed."
He then laughed.
"Never baby. My wallet is endless."
"Oh well excuse me. I didn't know Five guys paid you so well. Meanwhile, I'm over here slaving for the bare minimum."
"Baby,now you know well enough that I don't make you do that much. If anything I let you have your way."
"Ok fine."
"Anyways, I've been thinking about another job."
"So you'll work two jobs? Isn't that stressful?"
"No, I'll work one job."
"AND LEAVE ME?!"
"Baby, you will be in school. You want to work and go to school?"
"Yes! I need the money."
"No you don't."
"Well I want the money. Same thing."
"I can give you what ever you need."
"No!"
"Why?"
"Because you spoil me too much."
"Do you like it?"
"Well yes but that's besides the point! "
"Look, I don't want you to feel like you are running my pockets empty or that I'm trying to take away your sense of independency. I want you to focus on your first year of college and not have to be stressed out because you are juggling hard class work and work at the same time. I'm here for you. I want to help you."
"Fine."
"Let me keep spoiling you baby." He said, placing a kiss on my cheek.
" So where did you want to work?"
"Well I have an interview in two weeks for a executive assistant position at the American Foreign Service Association."
"Woah. I thought only old people had jobs like that."
"Gotta take your chances. Never know where they might get you."
"Oh yea, I told my mom about us and last night."
"Really?! That's why she looked at me like that."
