I woke up to the alarm, it was 7:30 " yes! Finally moving day!" I basically squealed

Today is the day that I move into my dorm. I decided to call Devonte just to make sure he was already awake. Devonte is my best friend, we've been friends since elementary school we were always drawn to each other. He answered on the first ring
" I'm up" he answered with an attitude but it's to early for me to deal with right now. " What time you coming over? Mom said we leaving by 9am." "I'll be there by 8 don't worry" then he cut the call. I really don't have time for his mood swings right now.
" Dominique!" Shouting my name from the bottom of the stairs was my moms way of calling me. I didn't even feel like shouting back I just opened my door then closed it again to tell her I was already up. I got into the shower and did my morning routine. I picked out an adidas track suit cause I know New York finna be cold.

I packed away everything else, then headed down stairs and Devonte was already here. I hugged him and he kissed my forehead. I went over to hug Mr. James because he's like a second father to me after my Dad died he didn't hesitate to show me love. Devonte's dad and my mom had a little chat about driving upstate. So I decided to talk to Devonte about his little attitude this morning " what's up with you"
" what do you mean? "You seem off edge, are you not excited that we're moving in together or what?"
"Nahh Domo....that's not it you know I've been waiting for this day like forever, it's just I've been thinking about Maya and you know how everything went down last month" Devonte and his girlfriend decided to break up because they weren't ready to do long distance. They thought it was for the better. " look D.... you guys are madly in love. If your ment to be you will end up back to each other" he wasn't listening to anything I was saying I guess he just wasn't ready to take it in "are y'all ready?!" My mom asked we all agreed. Before we left my sister came running down the stairs with sleepy eyes. I tried to escape the goodbyes because it's going to be the hardest thing to do right now cause she needs me more then ever at this point in her life. She was my mini me and she wanted to come with us but she had an exam she needed to write "Domo...were you seriously about to leave without saying goodbye to me?" " Mani I'm sorry I didn't want to wake you" " girl that is no excuse" then she pulls me into a hug I immediately hug her back. We had a deep heart to heart last night she came out to me being bisexual.
We said our goodbyes then got into the car and drove off. I'm going to miss Harlem but I'll be back.
