"are you being fo' real right na?" Devonta asks over facetime. I let out a giggle and smile widely.

I just received a phone call from the head of the Philadelpha Eagles Human Relations. She just informed me that I got the internship to be apart of there social media team and videographer. This has been my dream since i was in high school.

Ive always been a huge fan of the eagles. They have always been the underdog in the NFL. They're drive and passion have always drawn my eyes. Well that and their quarterback isn't hard to look at either.

lemme stop.

"yea D i'm being fo'real. Are you happy?" I say messing with my hands.

"are you shitting me! Hell yea im happy!" He shouts into the phone. I laugh loudly.

"I can't wait to see you!."

Since I went to college at LSU (much to the disapprovable of my bama alum brother.) We haven't been able to spend time with each other since he had to move to philly. He and I have always been super close since we were kids. So us not being able to be around each other these last few years really sucked dick.

"when do you start?" He asks me still jumping up and down. This nigga goofy as hell yall.

"They said to fly out before camp starts. That way I can learn everything I need to and be out there with you guys." I say smiling heavily.

"I'm so proud of you Mani!" He says.

I know he means it. He's always supported me in everything ive done. Whether it was in sports I did or in decisions I made. He never once doubted me. He always had faith in me.

We hung up a few minutes later. I grab my journal off of my nightstand and begin writing my daily entry. Ive been writing entries since I my sophmore year of college. Its a good way to get my feelings out and not bottle them up. I used to do that alot and it wasn't

Dear Diary,

I cannot believe that I'm actually going to be working with the Philadelpha Eagles! This has been my dream forever! Everything just seems to be going great recently. I graduated college with my dream major,I get a job with my favorite football team and I get to see and spend time with my brother. God is good and god is great!

"who are we picking up again?" I ask Devonta as we arrive at Philadelphia International Airport. He told me yesterday that he needed to borrow my car to pick someone up from the airport. Now there was no way in hell I was going to let this fool drive my car. I don't care if it's old or not.

"Nigga for the third and final time!" He says rolling his eyes. "Were picking up my lil' sister." My mouth forms an o shape. Ive only ever met his mom and dad. He always talks about how thats his twin and his best friend. Im kind of excited to see the female version of smitty.

He pulls out his phone from his back pocket. After a few moments he raises the phone to his small ear.

"Hey Mani were here. What tunnel are you at." I hear her ask who was with him. She's pretty loud. Now I have no doubt there related.

"Jalen I told you he was giving me a ride. Now tell me what tunnel are you in?" He says sassily. I bite my lip to not laugh.

"ok I'll tell him." He hangs up and shakes his head.

"shes at gate 2." He says. I look up and see were at 3 so we need to back up a bit. Once we do he hops out the car to go grab her.
