Eating silently & slowly sipping on my mimosa I glanced over at Mr. Jones who was already looking at me

I looked away and slightly side eyedhim and he was still looking

It felt like he wanted to ask me something but didn't know how to go about it.

I looked back at him staring in his eyes I moved my head as to say 'if there a problem?' he laughed and picked his fork back up

"what's in that little book of yours?" he asked bringing a piece of bacon to his lips.

I looked down eating my food "just my thoughts on a daily basis, nothing crazy" I stated

attempting to shape my pancake into a heart with the fork

"I don't know why I'm still thinking about him like this, This is my best friends dad im talking about. If I knew it'll have been this bad I would've stayed my ass in California with Carmen. - shall I go on"

slowly looking up dropping my fork i put my hand to my mouth

He had my Journal and was flipping through the pages reading them out loud

" January 7th -that morning.. I imagined it.. him taking on the countertop it was the most vivid sexual daydream I've ever had I felt it in my stomach the shockwaves in my moochie everything"

Feeling embarrassed I jumped up reaching for my journal "Nasir!" he moved it from one hand to the other

This was sooo embarrassing how did he even get my Journal

"You left it open on the couch one night. I was under the impression you were writing music I was mistaken" he laughed a little before I reached for the Journal again this time grabbing it from him

"You want me to take you on my Granite countertops? Im not little young nas anymore, mess around and pull something fucking with yo ass" he laughed throwing back his second cup of Hennessy

I was lost for words, because for one why isn't he freaking out and telling me to leave america ?

Unless

"Don't worry, we can finish this conversation later" he got up walking past me

The door to the Loft opened and all ai heard was the rustling of bags and laughter

"Knight im serious you're never driving again" Destiny seemed pissed and it was hilarious to hear

he laughed more and she stomped her foot "DAAADDD" she crossed her arms waiting for her daddy to come out from where ever he ran off to

"Knight almost killed us! I let him drive home and he drove down a one way street" he dropped the bags and herself on the couch

"oh! hey bish, why you just standing there?" she asked picking up her phone

Quick think of something

"i uh- I was going to the couch" I stated making my way over there she glanced at me I looked at knight and he was staring at me
