December 10th 2023"I ain't thinking 'bout you—I ain't thinking 'bout—" I sung along with Beyoncé as got began getting ready for the day.
I had a few errands to run today. I had to go to the bank then I had three appointments to do today and lastly I had to go to the store to grab some things for Kaiser, my mom and Dion for Christmas. I didn't want to get ja'rod's yet because I didn't know exactly what to get him.
"I ain't sorry, nigga, nah—I ain't thinking 'bout you" I plugged my curling iron up, as I let that heat up I began doing my eyebrows.
"Now I'm the one that's lying—And I don't feel bad about it—It's exactly what you get—Stop interrupting my grinding"
Heavy knocks sounded on my front door causing me to walk out my bathroom and open the door.
"Hey" I smiled seeing ja'rod with food and flowers in his hand.
"Waddup" he walked in.
"I didn't know you were coming" I said grabbing the flowers out of his hand, "these are beautiful thank you"
"No problem, gimme my kiss" he picked his lips causing me to chuckle.
I stood on my tippy toes before pecked his lips, "is this food for me?"
"Yea" he spoke handing me the bag.
"I'll get it in a second I'm doing my hair" I said before walking to the bathroom. I heard footsteps coming from behind me.
He sat on my bed and watched me as I curled my hair, "where you goin'?"
"Well I have to go to the bank and then I have three nail appointments so ima do them after I come from the bank" I explained as I watched the curl drop to my liking.
"Is that safe?" He asked.
"Is what safe?" I asked grabbing another piece of hair, "if you're talking about the smoke coming from the iron, it's not even that hot forreal"
"Nah I'm talkin' bout you doing nails" he said, "is that safe ta' do while you're pregnant?"
"Probably not but I gotta stack up and get this bag before the baby comes" I shrugged before unplugging the iron and walking into my room.
"I got money" he said.
"I know"
"So youn need to work forreal"
I rolled my eyes as I slipped on my jeans, "that's you're money—I want my own money"
"Mm"
"Listen I'll triple mask just for you" I said, "can you bring me my food please?"
He got up and walked out of my room. I finished putting my clothes on before accessorizing.
"Hm" he handed me my food causing me to grab it out of his hand.
"Thank you boo"
"You burn yo' hair or sum'?"
"No, it usually smells like that after I do it though but I'm not about to walk around smelling like that so I put my oil perfume in my hands and rub them together before running my hands through my hair"
