🥀In Loving Memory🥀

Chapter 26

"Aside from the Dr. Anderson stuff, what was her relationship like with Tyrone?" Huey asked changing the topic.

He could sense that Ebony felt guilty for bringing Dr. Anderson back in the picture at that time, so he thought they could move on from him.

Huey didn't like Tyrone but he was curious to hear more about him and Jazmine.

They reminded me of a cute high school couple when it came to Jazmine and Tyrone. They were continually talking to each other, hanging around, doing adorable things, and being the type single people despise. I liked Jazmine with Tyrone because she seemed to be in desperate need of love. Tyrone was only there to put the pieces back together because she had already been through so much with Dr. Anderson and leaving Huey had broken her.

Even knowing she was pregnant with another man's child, I was shocked he chose to date Jazmine. That generally bothers most men, but he was ready to put up with it for her.

I was also curious if he had ever done anything sexual with Jazmine. When Jazmine knew she had AIDS, I didn't want him to get the incorrect notion and try to have sex with her. But, despite the fact that Tyrone was a really attractive guy, Jazmine would constantly assure me that nothing was going on between them.

Later, Jazmine informed me that Tyrone had contrary viewpoints about sex. He was the type to wait until marriage. So I didn't have to worry about him.

I remember Nicole and I decided to invite Tyrone over for dinner when he dropped Jazmine off from work.

The one thing I didn't like about the dinner was his shorts but I was able to bypass it.

We were having salad, alfredo, bread, wine, and juice for Jazmine. I didn't feel like going to Olive Garden and waiting in that long line to get reservations.

We were all seated at the table with food on our plates and we were eating.

It was quiet at first until Nicole decided to start up a conversation.

"So, Tyrone and Jazmine, how was work today?" Nicole asked the two.

"It was okay, I didn't get that many students to come to the nurse's office today. I think I only had three at most complaints about having a headache," Jazmine answered.

"Tyrone what about you?" Nicole asked.

"I let the kids play outside today and a few of the boys were debating with me about who's a better basketball player," Tyrone answered.

"You get into arguments with the kids?" Nicole asked trying to contain her smile.

"I would say a debate, but, yes! They keep saying Shaq O'Neal is a better baller than Michael Jordan just because he's taller than him," Tyrone exclaimed causing both Nicole and Jazmine to laugh.

"They're just kids! Wait till they see it for themselves," Jazmine said still smiling.

"Yeah, I didn't feed too much into it because they're kids and they don't know much yet,"  he said as I nodded.

"It wouldn't look good with a grown man arguing with 8 and 9-year-olds," he said.

"If you don't mind me asking Tyrone, how old are you?" I asked catching him by surprise.

"I'm 25-years-old," he answered as I gave him an odd look.

I looked over at Jazmine to see she looked guilty and took a sip of her juice.
