_______longer chapter________

Kevante: *walks to her* Hey.

Kevante....my ex that broke my heart in a thousand pieces & more...why is he here?

Shanté: ...hey. Why are you here?

Kevante: Skyla's plus one.

Shanté: 'Of course' Ok. Nice seeing you. *about to walk away*

Kevante: Wait. I wanna talk to you.

Shanté: There's nothing to talk about.

Kevante: There's a lot to talk about.

Shanté: Like what?

Kevante: Like I'm sorry for everything.

Shanté: It's a lil too late for a sorry.

Kevante: Yeah clearly. It's almost been 3 years but I just want you to know that I didn't mean it like that.

Shanté: What? You basically told me I meant nothing. What else could that mean?

Kevante: I only said it 'cause-

Shanté: Don't tell me it's because you "thought I deserved better".

Kevante: No. It's because I wasn't ready for commitment & if I would have told you that, you wouldn't have let me go.

Shanté: Why weren't you just honest with me in the beginning?

Kevante: Because I thought I was ready but right before I cheated on you the first time, I realized I wasn't.

Shanté: I repeat, why weren't you just honest? You coulda said some shit like "Hey. Just a heads up, I'm not used to commitment". Like you ain't have to go & do what you did.

Kevante: I know & I'm sorry.

Shanté: That's nice.

Aunt Retha: *walks up to them* Té, baby, would you come here please?

Shanté: Yes ma'am.

By a table

Aunt Retha: That's yo boyfriend right there talkin to David?

Shanté: Yes.

Aunt Retha: Ouuuu chile.

Auntie: *walks over* Hey Té!

Shanté: Hey Auntie.

Aunt Retha: You know that's her boyfriend talkin to Dave ova there?

Auntie: *gasp* You brought him?! I knew he seemed familiar!

Shanté: *softly chuckles*

Aunt Mabel: Sherry!

Aaaaaaaaaand here come my aunts crowding me with questions

*time skip*

Aunt Sherry: Oh he is so handsome. Where'd you meet him?

Shanté: We used to go to school together.

Auntie: He is so handsome. Like really Té. You got some good taste.

Aunt Retha: She does. How old is he?

Shanté: 19.

Aunt Retha: 19?!

As much as I seem annoyed with all these questions, it makes me happy in a way because not only do I get to talk about him but I get to talk about him with my family & hear the nice things they say about him which leads to them wanting to meet him &...*sighs* I love it
