My phone lit up and I grabbed it. Wyd doing today? Tabby messaged me. I waited ten minutes then replied, nothing.
Come to the mall with me and my boy?
I need a ride?
No, not if you're coming with us......
Okay
I sent my address and got in the shower. After doing every smell good thing I could, I put on ripped bagged blue jeans and a tight cropped tank. I accessorized with on jewelry and a purse.
I got the text he was here and texted my cousin. PLEASE PLEASE MEET ME AT THE MALL, LIKE IMMEDIATELY.
When she didn't text me back right away I got ten times more nervous. I set the alarm and left the house. I got in the car, Tabby was in the front and Jasper was in the passenger.
Music played at a medium volume, the car smelled of weeds and colognes. Their bopping of the heads to the beats, and Frank Ocean playing in the middle of nowhere, after a lot of gangsta music calmed me down.
I sighed when we pulled into the mall lot. Before I could open the door for myself, Tabby did. I was a little shocked when he reached out for my hand.
When I got out, my hand was still in his. He put it in the air and looked down on me. I smiled and tilted my head. "Pretty you." He chuckled.
When we was waking into the mall, my phone dinged. im here, was the message from Leona. Excitement raised in me. I waved them to go in the first store to the right.
Told her I was at the entrance and she walked in. "You betta be lucky I was dragged to the Walmart ten minutes away. My momma made me walk, so this betta be good bitch." Her ramble got wired away when she peeped them at the entrance of the store, gazing at us.
She eyed around without emotion. Then at me with a weird smile. "Grown?" She shook her head, "bad, bad girl." I laughed with her.
They walked to us, Tabby put his hand around my shoulder, I got a swift of his fresh cologne and deodorant.
"I need to pick up these shoes but we can go wherever after that." We walked to the store, I noticed he was tall and better looking in person. I was real shy and nervous, so I didn't say much.
He got handed a bag with two boxes in it. "Cousin, look he got money. Look at what he can afford." Leona said in "shock."
"Yeah, I got money too." Jasper chuckled goofily. Leona and I looked at each other before shaking our heads. "Cousin no." She snickered.
"How much can I bet y'all ain't really cousins? Just best friends who call each other cousin." Jasper squinted as we walked out.
"Bitch yew told him?" She went along with it and I shook my head. "No, bro he must be a physic."
