Torn Between The Two

10

Hey Loves!
Just a few things to note. This isn't going to be a long book.
No more than 30 chapters.
However, there's going to be lots of drama to come so be prepared.
I know some people may have an idea of how things will play out but trust me when I say, you'll be in for a surprise.
Last but definitely not least, THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH to the people who vote and comment🥺❤️❤️❤️
I really do appreciate the love and feedback.
It literally motivates me to give y'all more.

"I'm thinking white walls with the wooden shelves. There will be a chandelier. The center display table will have some of the most top rated candles.
The other shelves will have the other different scented candles that I've been experimenting on"
The interior decorator nodded as she took down my ideas.
It was now August and like I told my mom I'd have a spot for my candle business.
"And those few spots with the highlighters are where the few flower pots you've chosen will be set up, right?" I nodded.

I was somewhat proud of the amount of work I had already accomplished is less than a month.
"Okay well I'll get started. I'll see you on Monday. You know what to do if you have any more ideas for me"
I thanked her and left.
Getting in my car, I headed over to my brother's place.
I haven't seen him in awhile and I missed him.

"Your favorite sister in the whole wide world is hereee" I sang walking in.
He smiled as he looked away from his game.
"What's up sis?" I shrugged.
"Just dropping in to see how you're doing. I haven't seen you in a min"
I made my way to his kitchen.
"I got some hot wings, macaroni, cornbread and corn on the cob. You want a plate?"
"Hell yes!" He shouted. I took out two plates and made us each a plate.

"Here you go" I handed him a plate and took a seat next to him.
"Mom told me you got that spot you wanted. How's renovations been going for you? I've been meaning to drop by but I got so much going on it's crazy man"

"It's good. I actually just came from there. They're gonna start painting today. What's wrong though?"

He shrugged. "Work is killing me. We got some new clients and you know how that be. Gotta make that extra bonus"

"And?" I said so he could go on. I know there was something else bothering him.

"Farrah" I smiled.
"What's going on?"
"Man I like her so much I just don't know what to do anymore about it. I don't want to make her uncomfortable but I hate seeing her with that nigga" it was funny hearing him talk like this because he practically got any girl he wanted.

"Amor you have to understand where she's coming from. She can't just leave Von because you're interested her"
He rubbed his hand down his face and sighed.
"I know man"

"Hey baby" I said as I got into Amir's car.
He leaned over to give me a kiss.

Today we decided we'd take a drive somewhere and then grab dinner. Whenever I wasn't working, he made time to take me somewhere and I loved that about him.

"Let's get ice cream. I've been having a sweet tooth all day" I said as he drove off.

He nodded. We drove in comfortable silence as soft music played.
I took the time to admire him.
I really admired this man. From the time I've known him to now he's the total opposite of what I thought he would be.
