"So... whatchu think?" Benji asked fixing her outfit in her bathroom mirror
Braxton looked at her and placed his hand on his chin as if he was thinking real hard and long.
She chuckled, "Come on man."
He laughed, "You look good. Why are you acting so nervous?"
"I'm not nervous." she says
But that was a lie. She was nervous- one reason was because it's been a minute since went out on a date.
Even though Angel might not consider it a date, she still did. Either way it was an outing but she hasn't did it with a woman in a while.
The seconds part of her nerves also came from the person she was going out with.
She never thought she would be back sorta in Angel's life in any way. Even if she doesn't want a relationship with her, it would still feel great to be back genuine friend to one another.
"Then why do you have your sweeter on backwards?" He asked
She looked down and sucked her teeth at him as he cackled at her.
Benji shook her head before pulling the sweater from over her head and turning it around to put on the right way.
"Alright? What about now?"
He tapped his chin again, "Lose that hat mom. Wear your hair out, if you don't then what would be the point in getting it done?" He asked
She snickered.
She didn't know what she was going to do with his smart mouth at times. He was turning fourteen soon but sometimes she felt like she was beginning to raise an eighteen year old already.
She spent the last three years not necessarily taking any woman seriously. She met a few women at certain music parties but it was nothing serious to point where she got a number and it moved on to something serious.
Everything she was trying to before she actually did and was continuing to do now. She absolutely blocked out the clubs in her life, the one night stands, the drinking (unless she was celebrating that was actually worth taking a drink), she smoked her blunt but never when Braxton was around or in the house. She truly turned her life around, not because she thought it would get Angel back but because it was time to do on her own. It was mentally fucking her up until one day she flushed down her pain pills, threw all her Hennessy bottles out, and woman'd up.
