After school I walked home with chresanto and craig. They were argueing over which football player is better. Ugh, boys. I tell ya.
Craig: no coby is the best!
Chresanto: fuck outta here! Jordan is the king of basketball he got mad rings.
Craig: he retired how long ago?
Chresanto: so! Mary J Blige retired and she's still remembered.
Lenesha: he has a point.
Craig: no! he's not! And your only saying that because yall go out.
Lenesha: whatever. Anyway while yall dwell on stupidity, im gonna go upstairs and do, ya know, girl stuff.
Chresanto: keep the door open!
Lenesha: blah blah...
As I went upstairs my phone started to ring. It was cat. I answered.
Lenesha: hello?
Cat: wassup girl?
Lenesha: nothing much u?
Cat: just sitting here, talking to you.
Lenesha: well odviously.
Cat: what are you doing?
Lenesha: painting my nails.
Cat: oooo.... I need mines done to!
Lenesha: well come over and i'll see what I can do.
Cat: alright.
As I sat and waited for cat to come over, I started to think about that note. What did it mean? Before I could think any further, cat came busting through my bedroom door.
Cat: WASSUP BOO?!
Lenesha: boy, you got here quick.
Cat: well duhh I live next door.
Lenesha: riiiiight.
Cat: so, what's new?
Lenesha: nothing really.
Cat: how's the bf?
Lenesha: you didn't see him when you came up?
Cat: yea.
Lenesha: yup.
Cat: who's that other guy sitting next to him?
Lenesha: oh that's my cousin Craig.
Cat: oh well he's kinda....
Lenesha: aww the willo cat has a cwush?
Cat: no.... I was just saying he's umm...... Well dressed.
Lenesha: right. And if I hadn't known you for 7 years I'd say that you mean what your saying. Just well dressed?
Cat: mmmmhhmmm
Lenesha: but your wrong! Whenever you say someone is well dressed that is your way of saying he's cute.
Cat: ok so maybe I think he's cute.
Lenesha: OMG GIRL I GOTTA GET Y'ALL TOGETHER! CRAIG!!!!!
Cat: no no! I want to do it on my own. Remember the last time you tried to hook me up?
Lenesha: ok so maybe I've messed up in the past but its a new year and people change.
Cat: you messed up my date and now whenever he sees me he calls me clown. And that was two weeks ago.
Leneaha: alright I get it. I'll stay out of it this time.
Cat: oh no your not.
Lenesha: let's do this than.
I grab her arm and drag her down the stairs.
Lenesha: hi guys!
Chresanto: hey babe. Hey cat.
Cat: hey.
Lenesha: Craig this is cat my friend. She's 14 favorite color red and is highly available.
Cat: lenesha!
Lenesha: what? I'm just trying to set the mood.
Chresanto: why don't you sit down and let them get to know each other. THEMSELVES.
Lenesha: ok.
I flop down on chresanto's lap and watch the two of them converse.
Craig: so uh.... Cat do you play any sports?
Cat: well I play, soccer.
She was totally gonna blow this she needs my help. I point to my foot.
Cat: and foot-
Great. Then I made a circle in the air.
Cat: circle.
Craig: foot circle? What that? You mean football?
Cat: yea that the new way of saying football. Foot circle.
Craig: technically it's a ball
Wow this girl is dumb.
Craig: what do you do in your free time?
Cat: shop, clean, chill with friends.
Craig: that's cool. You seem laid back.
Great their hitting it off! My work here is done. Or at least I thought it was.
Craig: so who's your favorite team?
Cat: umm the......
Great now she's looking at me for help. FML! I guess Chresanto saw the problem because he took matters into his own hands. It's a good thing cat understood sign language because Chresanto spelled out the whole team name.
Cat: Pittsburg steelers.
Cat: oh that's my favorite team too.
I really loved Chresanto right now. I was so happy that I kissed him out of nowhere.
Cat: so uh do you wanna go out for some pizza or something?
Craig: y'all hungry?
Chresanto: yea. I had a tiring day at school and I need to let loose with my girl.
Lenesha: you slept half the day.
Chresanto: do you know how hard it is to block out mr. G? That man's like a giant.
Lenesha: your too much.
Chresanto: (whispering in my ear) you ain't seen nothing yet.
