Glossed Up
"Girlll" Annia groaned through the speakers on the phone. Imani, currently doodling in a sketchbook, glanced over to her propped up phone and responded with a questioning hum. Noticing the expression painted on her friend's face, she gave her full attention to whatever her best friend was going to say. "It's been a minute since we've been outside." Annia dragged, tone laced with boredom.
Unfortunately it was quite true, the brown skin girl hadn't gone out with Nini and Connie since the basketball game, and it was eating her alive.
"You're so right but ain't nobody hosting nothin'." Imani sighed. The call went silent for a few seconds until Annia let out an audible gasp then squealed whilst slapping her leg. "Bitch, are you getting ate out on my damn phone, what's happening?" Imani cackled out.
Nini almost snapped her neck with how quick she turned to side eye her friend. "Shit, I wish but this is better." Annia said with cheesy grin. Imani shook her head now also smiling "Nini, if you don't get to the point."
"Constance just texted me and said there's a party tonight at his cousin's place at eight." Imani and Annia both let out a squeal. Connie's older cousin Jamil was fine as hell, and the exact definition of tall dark and handsome. Not only that, he also had a big house and hosted the best parties. "My mom is working a double so we can make it." Mani said as she got up to look through her closet. "Oh my gosh I should come over right now so we can go together." Annia said with an excited tone.
"Girl Ion even know what imma wear though." The curly haired girl searched through her closet with a groan. "Okay Babe, imma let you figure that out, while I hop in the shower real fast." With that she hung up and Imani was back to contemplating what she would be wearing tonight.
The brown skin girl finally decided on a cute outfit combination that she'd never worn before. "Ooouu, this would be cute paired with this" She thought aloud. Mani grabbed her phone from its spot on her dresser and made her way to her bathroom.
Imani put on her playlist and started thinking about how she was going to style her hair. She went with a slick half up half down hairstyle but her hair definitely was putting up a fight. I wish I had braids this is taking too damn long. "Don't play with me right now bruh" She said grabbing more of her favorite gel and using the brush to mold the hair in place. Checking the time it was about 7:00, Mani decided she wanted to do some easy lash clusters real quick.
Just as she grabbed her tweezers, she remembered that she needed to give ManMan a bottle, and plug him in to charge before she left. Her grade in the class was decent but a minor slip up with the robot baby would ruin it all.

Seated comfortably in Nini's passenger seat, Imani cranked the volume all the way up and shuffled her playlist until it landed on a fitting song. "There's gonna be drinks right" Imani shouted over the music. Annia nodded her head somehow hearing what Mani said over the noise. A few minutes later Imani turned the volume down to answer a FaceTime call from Connie. "Hey, where yall at? It's hella people here now so the party is finally jumpin'." The dreadhead asked, slightly shouting because of noise from the party.
"We're about to be there Nini had to stop and get gas." Imani said as she fiddled with her purse looking for her lip gloss. She could hear the loud base from the party coming through the phone. "Aight hurry I got a blunt calling my name." Imani laughed at his foolishness, "This fein ass nigga bruh." The girl hung up just as Annia turned on to the street. Both sides of the road were packed with cars parked bumper to bumper.
"Shittt we gon have to walk a bit" Nini said searching for a spot further down the street. "That's cool, it gives us time to get some final breaths of fresh air." Imani said jokingly. Annia eventually found a spot, parked the car and hopped out with Mani in tow. "Wait Nini come here" The brown skin girl held a bottle of champagne toast in her hand and gave herself and Annia a good spritz.
They made their way toward the large house where they could faintly hear the song A Mili booming inside. As they got closer, Imani's eyes widened in recognition as she saw a familiar tall, pale figure lingering outside the house with a red solo cup in hand. "Shit" She groaned to herself, feeling her stomach flutter at the mere sight of him.
