as me & raphael slowly walk next to each other awkwardly, raphael askes this.

raphael - where's ya home girl ? *he says as he looks down at me*

dejá - oh .. she couldn't make it. *i say as i look up at him*

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 ..
