I walk into my apartment frustrated about my grade on my finals. I throw my backpack into my closet slamming the door behind me. I bury my face into my pillow contemplating changing majors again.

"What was the grade Kiki," my best friend Nova asked leaning against my door knowing exactly what was wrong.

Nova and I have been friends since freshman year of high school, now we're basically sisters living together in our junior year of college.

"72," I say getting angry all over again.

"Bitch that's a C. Your final grade will be a B," Nova says not understanding my frustration

"Exactly Nova a fucking B. That B just fucked me out of being Valedictorian." I say yelling.

"Okay bitch let's knock it down about 6 notches," Nova says back

"I'm sorry, I'm just upset," I say wiping tears

"Kiki girl you got valedictorian in high school which is a huge accomplishment. You promised you wouldn't stress about not getting it in college. Give yourself some credit."

"I know but it's just hard seeing one of my college goals not getting accomplished."

"You're way too hard on yourself. Your entire family is proud of you for just graduating high school, then you got valedictorian and a scholarship to college. They're mind blown by your success. You being an honor student just adds to your list of accomplishments. They're gonna be happy with whatever you do."

"You're right," I say wiping my face from tears.

"I know I am," Nova says walking over with her arms stretched for a hug.

"I love you," I say hugging her back.

"Wanna smoke?" She asks already knowing the answer.

"Yes please," I say putting emphasis on yes

"Let me call Julio he'll get us some," she says pulling out her phone.

"What's up mamas," Julio says on the other line. I gag loudly announcing my presence

"Whats good Kiki" he says laughing

"Bae we tryna smoke can you get us some." Nova asks

"Yeah, but I'm with Tommy right now so it won't be till later." Nova sighs into the phone

"Fine I can pull up now but Tommy will be with me"

"Good, he can meet Kiki. She needs a distraction" she says eyeing me.

"Bet. We on the way" Julio says before hanging up.

"Who's Tommy and why you tryna set us up" I ask laughing

"Julio's Boss and he's your type don't worry. Just relax tonight and let whatever happens, happen" Nova says.

I nod my head showing her I understand. Nova then leaves my room to get ready for the boys to come over leaving me to do the same. I quickly shower and throw on my black skims set. I put my locs up in a small pineapple, apply lipgloss, and lightly spray my neck and wrists with my Carolina Herrera perfume.

Since tonight is supposed to be relaxing for everyone I pull out my unopened bottle of Taylor Port placing it on the counter. As I'm straightening up our living room there's a knock at the door. I spray a few sprays of room spray before opening the door.

"What's up Kiki," Julio says giving me a side hug. I open the door wider for the boys to come in.

"This my boy Tommy. Tommy this Kiki" Julio says introducing us.
