I was coming home from class. I walked through the pathways to get to my apartment. The guys were sitting out there. "Homeboy where you been at?" Tomboy said. "I been to class, that's where I been." I said.
As time went on, me and Angel have been close. She's been still working at the library to get through her day and I have been going to school. She also helped me get a speech tutor in class as well as her helping me and it's been working.
My words come out clearer unless I am scared and that's when I stutter. It's weird almost like a scary movie. "What about your job?" Nino said.
"I quit that for now. Why you need a job?" I asked and the guys got tickled. "Naw see I am working, I get paid under the table. You, what's your major?" Nino said.
"Sociology. The best you know." I said as I was now passing by them.
"Oh well that's good then. Your talking got better huh?" Blue asked and I almost got irritated.
"Yeah so so, why you wanna know." I asked and he shrugged taking a step back.
"Aye listen, I will speak for myself. Im proud of you man. You my homie." He said as I nodded.
"Well let me get in the house. I have a date." I said happily while they cooed and hollered out.
"Who's the woman?" I shook my head and fished the keys out of my pocket in which I was right.
Tonight was date night for me and Angel. A real one and I just couldn't believe what happened to me over the years only to get to this part. Angel was a one of a kind girl and I was falling for her.. love at first sight.
An hour later, I was checking over my homework before I was done getting dressed. Then my phone had rung. "Hello?" I said.
"Hey Michael. We still on for tonight?" She asked and I smiled. "Yes ma'am we are!! I can't wait to see you and class was the bomb!" I said as she laughed.
"I'm so glad Michael I really am." She said as I seen her smiling face. I giggled a little too. "Tonight I actually.. wanted to tell you when my stuttering started, I feel like I can move forward afterwards, maybe it wouldn't be so bad.. you know my stutter." I said.
"Your stutter is really non-existent.. you have been doing great Michael! I'm so excited. And sure I know it won't be easy but you can start slow. Either way I'll be right here for you. I promise. Now let me finish getting ready, I'll see you soon." She said.
"Haha.. of course time is getting away, of only it was slower." I said as we said our see you laters.
It was time. And I wanted to tell her how I feel..
The End!!
