LONDON ELISE HARPER,16

Damari was never big on his birthdays. His mom never had enough to throw him those big birthday parties. Neither did London, her grandmother tried when she was younger but it just became too much so neither one of them got to experience that excitement as a kid.
London was a giver, she liked to do things for people more than to revive. When people's birthdays would come around she would go all out for them, meaning she wanted to do the same for Damari.
She didn't have a whole lot of money, but she had enough to do the things she had planned to do with him. She wanted to take him out for a special dinner; just the two of them. He had been talking about getting cheesecake so she just decided on going to the cheesecake factory, then she had a surprise waiting for him back at his house.
When London had called him that night, he had made sure to stick by her side. He had never seen her so..sad. He hated how much pressure she had on her back, He hoped tonight's plans would take her mind off of that.
And he did, London didn't want to think about anything right now. It was all out of reach to fix, so she would just live in her present and cherish every small moment she had with Damari, the kids, Rose, or herself.
She was allowed to be selfish and not care about Lauren, Andre, Ja, and Jani who had been trying to still get in touch with her.
She didn't want to worry about them, nor did she have too. She wanted to live the life that allowed her to be free, and that included pouring her heart in Damari.
And he was a little worried about her. He was worried about her all the time with all the shit she carried, but she only cried once after getting that news.
He knew the day was supposed to be about him, he just wanted her to feel special and loved as well.
"You look gorgeous, baby." He mumbled, walking up behind her and kissing her cheek as she put the finishing touches on her makeup.
"Thank you handsome, Happy birthday." She smiled, turning around to kiss his lips. "Thank you." He smiled.
"You don't seem excited." mShe pouted, running her fingers through his beard. "I am, I just want to make sure your ok." He mumbled, wrapping his arm around her waist pulling her into his lap.
"I am, Are you ok?" She asked, playing with the chains around his neck. "I'm good, just don't try and flip this. I'm asking about you."Damari urges.
