Bigger Is Better

26. We Got Beef Pt 2

Flashback

"Ooh sis, this would be so fye on you, body would go crazy in this" Cha held up this dress from the rack that was beautiful at Neiman Marcus.

"Yes Lord, you gotta try that on Ko!" Dom and Ejay encouraged, and I agreed before taking the dress and going towards the dressing room. We were out just hanging and decided to come do some shopping. We had spent the day getting massages, nails done, and brunch.

Once I made it into the dressing room and removed my clothes before attempting to shimmy the dress over my hips. Once I did that I was careful not to poke a hole in the lace with my nails. The dress was fire!! A beautiful black fitting dress, lace covering the sides from the boob down to my lower hips. Bustier lined top and it was haltered. The dress shimmered more towards the bottom and had a slight train. It would make a gorgeous special date night dress.

Coming out to show the girls and Ejay they gasped at the sight of me.

"Biiiiiiiiitch, August gone eat your ass alive in this dress. Body so tea bestfriend" Ejay commented walking towards me, I spun showing them how good my booty looked.

"Wait a minute best, that ass is sitting! Hold on!" Dom placed her hand at my cuff lifting it a bit and I laughed as did everyone else.

"No fr, Ko you look good as hell in this dress. You gotta get it. I gotta get in the gym with you cuz baybeehh!" Cha complimented and I blushed looking in the mirror admiring my hard work paying off. I had been fasting and working out and the weight was dropping! I had gone from a size 18 to a size 12/14. But the body recomp was immaculate. August had yet to see my weight loss in person, so I wanted to be sort of a surprise to him.

"Ima get it" I admitted, walking back towards the dressing room. I quickly but carefully slipped out of the dress and getting my clothes back on. I felt my phone vibrating as I walked out of the dressing room with the dress over my arm laughing at a text from my husband. Carelessly walking towards the front of the store and looking at my phone I was startled feeling myself bump into something, well someone for that matter.

"Oh my gosh," I said seeing my phone fall out of my hands and on to the floor.

"My bad Miss lady, you okay" I looked up to see this brown skin man was fairly good looking. He had a low cut and waves, beautiful teeth, and was dressed very nicely. He bent down to pick up my phone handing it back to me.

"Thank you, I should've been paying attention. I'm sorryy--" I trailed off and he reached his hand out for me to shake.

"Rocko" He smiled slyly and I lifted my eyebrows.

"Your mama put that on your birth certificate?" I inquired, I always thought it was crazy for ppl to give out their "family/street' nicknames to people who didn't know them.

He laughed poking his cheek with his tongue "No ma'am she didn't, Roderick" he said still holding on to my hand.

"Right, sorry Mr. Roderick. I should've been paying attention." I reiterated withdrawing my hand from his long grasp.

"No that was my fault, had no business bumping into a black, BEAUTIFUL, Queen like yourself. Please forgive me." He made sure to put emphasis on beautiful as I walked past him feeling his eyes fixated on me. I heard him mutter "damn". Before averting his eyes back up towards mine.

"Hmph, thank you. All is well. Again I'm sorry, gotta get going." I smiled about to walk away.

"Okay, before you go could I possibly get your number?" He asked catching me off guard.
