Would You Mind

Chapter 2

I woke up to a bug crawling in on my face. I immediately screamed and wiped it off of me. I climbed out of the slide and looked around. There were two kids standing in front of me.

They were twins and looked like they were only 5.

"Are you homeless mam?" The taller one asked.

"No" I said getting annoyed.

"Then why are you sleeping at the park?" The other one asked.

"Leave me alone go play or something" I snapped.

They walked away with their heads down. I grabbed my phone out my purse and looked at the time. It was 3 in the afternoon.

I sat on the bench and decided to call my best friend again. She didn't answer so I decided to text her.

Me- Bf Wtf 😤

Candice- im sorry i been so caught up with the new boo

Me- well im about to come over i got a lot to tell you

Candice- im not at home i'll call you when i get there

Me- whatever

That just pissed me off I'm growing through a lot right now and my best friend is not even here for me.

I walked over to the swing and sat starring into space.

I decided to take a walk to the corner store to get some snacks.

There were a large group of niggas standing in front of it. You could tell they all were drug dealers.

I saw Ken leaning on his car with a pretty girl standing in front of him. She had her arms around his neck while they were kissing.

I attempted to walk inside the store without being noticed.

"Aye Ken ain't that yo bitch you was at McDonalds with last night" the dude who called me basic yesterday said.

"Damn shordy got on the same shit she had on yesterday" somebody else said.

Everybody on the corner laughed as I walked inside with my head low. I wanted to turn around but I was starving.

I walked in the chip isle and grabbed 3 bags of chips. I was heading over to get candy when the tall Carmel boy walked in and reached for the same snicker I was getting.

I looked up and we both chuckled.

"Go head" he said still chuckling.

I didn't pay much attention to his face yesterday. He was real cute with his little twist and huge earrings.

"I'm Eden" he said.

"I'm North" i smiled looking down.

"Why you always looking down you shy or sum shit" he said as he grabbed his snicker.

"Uh i guess" i said nervously.

"Your beautiful" he said genuinely.

I nodded not believing him. I walked away ain't sat my things on the counter. I took my money out and paid for it.

Eden was behind me in line. I felt him starting at my ass. This seems like deja vu.

I walked out the store the same boys from yesterday were talking shit. I kept walking and ignored their ignorance.

Minutes later as I was walking a nice Mercedes Benz pulled up and parked.

I looked back and noticed it was Eden. He got out his car and walked over to me.
