raphael - mmm *as he nods his head*
dejá - where's the rest of the guys ?
raphael - ahh .. they couldn't make it neither.
dejá - what a coincidence.
raphael - right right *he says as he chuckles & looks down*
shortly after that we walk into the control room, there was 2 swivel chairs alongside each other. we both sit down, after a few seconds of silence we begin to talk, we talked about a lot of things like: our jobs, long term goals, childhood, & much more. somehow the subject got to music.

raphael - besides yk us, what rnb groups do you like the most ?
dejá - hmmm, it'll have to be J5 & troop.
raphael - oh word ?, dats wassup, dats wassup.
dejá - what about you ?
raphael - *as he sits up & fold his hands together, while smirking* first, it's me & the guys ofc.
dejá laughs
raphael - then new edition, & earth wind & fire.
dejá - i like new edition too, they heartbreak album was good.
raphael - that album was tight, can't lie— speaking of albums .. i just wrote sum for me & da guys.
dejá - oh word ? lemme see
raphael - *he gets up* jus a lil sum .. i'm not finished tho. *as he pulls this notebook from his bag that was laying on the couch*
he flips to the page & hands me the notebook as he sits down, i begin reading the lyrics he had, he only had 3 verses once i got done reading. in my mind, i really felt this lyric, i really didn't know why ...
"for us to be together, i'm not worried 'bout a thing, not even stormy weather."
-
dejá - it's nice, i love it so far. *i say as i smile & hand him his notebook back*
raphael - thank you. *he says as he takes his notebook back*
dejá - it's getting kinda late, & i have to get home.
raphael - i understand, cmon i'll walk you out. *he says as he stands up from the swivel chair*
we walk out of the studio, & make it to my car, he opens my car door & closes it, i roll down the window. he bows down & this happens.
- 9:15 PM
raphael - it was a pleasure spending time with you.
dejá - i can say the same
raphael - have a safe drive, call me. *he says as he walks off smirking*
dejá - i will. *i say as i smirk back at him rolling up my window*
-
i then drive home, once i get home the house was quiet. so i just took off my shoes, changed my clothes, got a snack & laid down in my bed .. i really didn't know how to feel after that. i just hung out with raphael saadiq ... good thing is i didn't get kidnapped, all ik is deep down inside i lowkey felt happy. he was different ...very different.

the next day, me & taliá were at the mall in the food court after shopping. she then asks me what happened yesterday ..
