Nicki
Megan's birthday is coming up, as much as she begs me not to do anything, I am anyways. I'm not gonna pull anything big though, just a few friends and her favorite foods.
I'm at the dining table with my laptop and a notepad writing things down. I have my mama helping because she's been planning birthday parties for 17 years now. I also texted her cousin Normani for help but the girl hasn't responded yet.
Normani actually reached out to me to help her out, so my mama, Normani and myself are all planning this together.
Megan makes me happy so I'll move the entire world to make her happy.
I have no shame I have feelings for her.
I'm searching up some decorations on my laptop and I can see my mama out the corner of my eye smirking and smiling.
"What, mama?" I turn and giggle.
"You're in love, Nika, I know you."
I turn around and blush.
"No." I'm such a liar.
"I remember this is how you were for Tiffany."
I shake my head with a bit of a small smile. My mama was never a homophobic or bigoted woman, when I came home with Tiffany she was elated to see me so happy and took it upon herself to teach me how to treat a woman.
As much as she focuses heavy on Amira nowadays, I admire how much energy she used to put into me.
"I mean she's kinda turned her life around that Megan Thompson. I want to meet her."
I tense up a bit. I don't think my mama really likes Megan because of her academic track record. I hope she has an open mind considering Megan has raised her grades and fixed up who she hangs out with.
"Mama we aren't dating."
She gives me a look.
"She said she wasn't ready."
My mama's bra arches.
"But we're taking it slow." I quickly add.
"You don't wanna take it slow."
The woman reads my mind. Over the last 6 or so months I've grown to care about and love Megan so much.
I've grown even more since Tiffany and I just wanna share love and emotion with her.
I'm kinda just waiting on her now. I don't wanna rush her.
"It'll happen Nika. You've been a great girl, helping me out with Amira and all and the way you care for others. You will get your reward, which will be Megan soon."
I smile to myself.
"I mean she'd be dumb not to want you after all this preparation."
I smile a bit to myself. I turn away a bit and she'd some tears.
"Oh Nika!"
My mama scoops me up. (She's older so I don't even know how she does it).
She sits on one of the other chairs and just holds me.
I must be going through early menopause because I'm not sure why I'm so emotional after that.
I guess it finally hit me how much I want Megan. She makes me happy, she reminds me of pink and I love pink.
"I love you Nika. I'm sure she does too."
My mama squeezes me tighter and kisses my cheek obnoxiously and I laugh. I guess I'm also emotional because I haven't gotten much 1:1 time with my mama for a while.
