𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐘𝐄𝐀𝐑 𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐑 - AMAURI's POV

"pon las flores ahí, por favor" i said to the woman, whilst pointing in the direction that i wanted her to place them

"nigga been in mexico for one year and now you speak spanish...get the fuck—"

i turned around to see josiah walking towards me. it wasn't him that had said that though. it was kasaun, who walked right by his side.

i felt a smile come onto my face upon seeing him. the last time i had seen him was...well damn...a whole year ago. it's been too fucking long.

"damn my nigga, you still rockin' that old ass cut?" i said with a smile as they got closer

"fuck you" he responded, raising his middle finger up at me

it was our way of saying 'i love you.'

"i missed you dawg" i said to him, opening my arms to give him a hug

"i missed you too brodie. it's been too long. the shop miss you"

"you been holdin' shit down though, right?"

"'course, but without you it's not the same"

i felt that. i've been cutting heads down here every once in a while, but without my shop it just don't hit the same. the environment, the talking about sports, the gossip, all of that i miss.

"i'm just glad to see you, thank you for coming bro. i 'preciate it" i said finally letting go of him

"you kiddin', my boy 'bout to become a husband. i wasn't gon' miss this for the world"

"chill" i said feeling my cheeks getting warmer "it's just the proposal. we ain't there yet"

"look at the nigga blushin' and shit" he said, nudging josiah "nigga really sprung offa your boy"

i couldn't even say nothin' 'cus it was true. sev got me whipped. and it's not only him. it's our whole family dynamic. i don't think i've ever been so happy in my entire life than i am now. i never would've thought i'd enjoy being a girl dad so much. but our daughter, she's the best thing to have ever happened to me, honest to god.

i'm sure i would've felt the same with savior, but it really is true what they say, shit happens for a reason.

"aight so tell me, how's this gon' go?" kasaun asked, disrupting me from my thoughts

"okay so boom..." i started "setup gon' be done in about another hour or two, which is perfect 'cus sev is currently being entertained right now by company. in a lil bit i'm gon' head over to the hotel right there to go clean up, get dressed, and shit"

i pointed over to the hotel right on the beach we were currently on, that i had booked for the night.

"while i'm getting ready, our friends back at the crib gon' bring sev over. y'all all gon' hide over there," i said then pointed "when they get here, he gon' walk towards me, imma say my piece, pop the question—hopefully he says yes, we kiss...yada yada. then y'all gon' come out and hit him with another surpise. we'll chill out for some time, take pictures and shit. then y'all all gotta dip 'cus we having a private dinner on the beach, just the two of us"

"damn. when'd you get so romantic and shit?" he asked causing the three of us to laugh

"fuck you"

this is good practice. if he says yes, i know he won't want to plan the wedding. so imma have to do it. that's alright though, i know who i'm choosing to spend life with.
