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
