her truth

this is weird

Before Sandra was going to introduce her friend to her boyfriend, sandra was able to get some time to herself to go out and spend some time with her best friend.
Sandra went to a bar next to her boyfriends mothers house since he was at work, to be waiting for her friend has she drank a non alcoholic drink to wait for her order to replay a video her boyfriend sent her about his ex wife and what she did a few days prior.
Placing it down, her spegetti came for her to start to eat, she then placed the fork down to turn to get up to hug her friend.
She then sat to start to talk to sandra about her new relationship, how it was going and what she did for work.
The two conversed for Sandra to eat here and there to watch has her friends food came about.
"So you work for a hospital?"
"That I do. It's really cool. Scares me though. There is a homeless problem."
Sandra nodded.
"Well that area does have things like that. Remember to stay safe."
"That I will. Now let's talk about you. So how is everything working out with your boyfriend."
"It's going good. I'm staying at his mother's place that is right around the corner. He wanted me to spend the night. Diego's at work though. "
"Your spending the night over at his mother's without him being there?"
"He'll be home soon. Just have to wait."
Maxey looked over sandra has she yawned.
"You look so tired."
"Been doing work, seeing family and spending most of my time with Diego. He's been having me drive to his work to pick him up to take him to his mother's or his friends."
"Doesn't he have a car?"
"He has two, they work and they don't. Diego has his friends sometimes take him to work and then I come and drive him home or to his friends where we hang out."
"If he has two cars why are you driving him about?"
"He's a mechanic. Always works on the cars then something seems to happen."
"Doesn't sound like his a good mechanic if that keeps happening."
"Truthfully, I've thought the same. However it is what it is. Oh I want to show you something he sent me. It's his ex wife."
Sandra moved her phone to her friend to watch the video of his ex wife going to his mother's house to then drag away a car part to then leave.
"Why is she doing that?"
"I don't know. Diego said she just came by his house and did that. Says she's crazy. Think she was wanting something. Don't know why he didn't just open the door to talk to her though."
"Yeah this is a little weird."
Maxey placed the phone back to look to sandra.
"This is a lot of baggage."
"I know but.....I love him. He is not like the other guys I tried to go out with in the past. Especially that one I went to prom with. He was a real asshole."
"Yes he is. Can't believe he tried to date you and his baby momma at the same time."
"Yeah....I don't know how she got my number but she once called me to stay away from him. Yeah I'm done with that. Big reason why I'm not like you. I'm done with white boys."
The two couldn't help but share in a laugh to then eat a bit to start to talk again.
"But Sandra, to be honest here, I think this is a lot for you. He lives with his mom and family, asking a lot of you and he has ex wife drama."
Sandra darted her eyes over her to then look down to get half finished food.
"I know..... But he is just so different then the other guys. They all seemed to want one thing, and one thing only."
"Didn't you two...."
"That we did but.....I believe he loves me..... Think with what he told me of his up bringing and what he has had to deal with, he just needs time."
"Sandra, it's not your job to fix him though."
"I'm not fixing him, just being there for him. He treats me very well and I love him."
"Sometimes the things you text me, I don't see how he treats you well. I understand it wasn't about sex like it was with the other boys but....I don't know. I'm just being your friend here, something seems off."
Sandra nodded, she felt that too, however how Diego was sometimes with her, it made her heart soar.
"I know. I can see and feel that too. Just.....I want to be there for him. Is that so wrong?"
"No it's not just.... Be careful okay."
Sandra looked to her best friend to nod.
Maxey then got up to look to her phone.
"I do need to go though. It's getting a bit late for me."
Sandra stood for them to hug to eye the other.
"Remember you can always text or call me. Also I still should be able to meet him next month."
"I will and cool. I'll see you then."
Maxey and sandra looked to the other for sandra to watch maxey leave with a face.
She then turned her head a bit to feel her phone start to go off, getting up she answered to place it to her ear.
"I'm off work. Can you come and get me?"
Sandra signed a bit to look to the clock, this was not the plan.
"It's 10 at night and I do have class tomorrow."
"I don't have anyone else. Come and get me."
Sandra made a face.
"Okay, I'll be there soon."
"Love you Sandra."
"I love you too "
Sandra hung up the phone to then pay her bill to go her car to feel very tired to then go to Diego knowing was not going to go to class the next day, she knew she was going to be so very tired.
