Tupac sat on the edge of his bed, a rare grin spreading across his face as he dialed Suge's number. He couldn't believe what had happened last night, and he was practically buzzing to tell someone who'd get it—someone who knew the history, who knew just how much this moment meant. As the phone rang, he could barely contain his excitement, his leg bouncing with nervous energy.

Finally, the line clicked, and Suge's deep voice came through. "Yo, Pacman. What's good? You sound hyped. Something happen?"

"Nigga, you ain't even gonna believe this," Tupac burst out, a laugh escaping him as he tried to find the right words. "It's about Sanai."

"Sanai, huh?" Suge replied, now fully interested. "What's goin' on with her?"

Tupac could barely sit still, the adrenaline still pumping from the night before. "So, we was at Zahir's party last night, right? And man, she got drunk—like, really drunk. And then she just started talkin', sayin' all kinds of shit, Suge. She said she still got feelings for me, that she never really got over us."

Suge let out a low whistle on the other end. "Damn, Pac. That shit crazy! I know you been hopin' for something like this, but I never thought it'd actually happen."

Tupac nodded, even though Suge couldn't see him. "I know, right? It's like everything I been thinkin' about, everything I been wantin'—she just laid it all out there. I was trippin', man. I didn't even know what to say at first. But damn, Suge, she still wants me. Can you believe that?"

Suge chuckled, the sound of Tupac's excitement clearly infectious. "Man, that's some good news right there. But what about that other dude she's with now? Ain't y'all in your own separate relationships?"

Tupac waved his hand dismissively, even though Suge couldn't see that either. "Her nigga ain't nothin', man. I mean, yeah, he's in the picture, but if she's tellin' me she still wants me, then it don't even matter. She wasn't sayin' that shit just for fun. I could see it in her eyes—she meant it."

"That's what I'm talkin' about!" Suge's voice was almost as excited as Tupac's now. "This is your shot, man. You been waitin' for this, and now it's here. You gotta make your move, show her you still care."

Tupac could feel his heart racing again, just thinking about the possibilities. "Hell yeah, I'm gonna make my move. I ain't lettin' this slip by. She still got feelings, and so do I. It's like we got a second chance, man. I just gotta play it right."

"Damn straight," Suge agreed. "But don't rush it, either. You don't wanna come off too strong, make her feel like she's gotta choose between you and this other dude overnight. Play it cool, but let her know you serious."

Tupac nodded, soaking in the advice. "Yeah, I hear you. I'm gonna talk to her when she's sober, make sure she knows I'm here for real. But man, Suge, I'm so hyped right now. It's like all that old shit between us, it's just gone. We got a clean slate."

Suge laughed, a deep, hearty sound. "I'm glad to hear that, Pac. I know how much this means to you. Just don't let the excitement get the best of you. Stay focused, and when you talk to her, be real. If she's feelin' you like that, she'll see that you're the same dude she fell for in the first place, but better."

Tupac grinned, the confidence in Suge's words fueling his own. "Thanks, man. I needed to hear that. I'm gonna do this right. I'm ready to prove to her that I'm still the one for her."

"Damn right you are," Suge said, his tone full of encouragement. "Now go handle your business, Pacman. You got this."

Tupac hung up the phone a few minutes later, still buzzing with excitement. He felt like the universe had just thrown him a lifeline, a way to fix the biggest mistake he'd ever made. And this time, he wasn't going to mess it up.
