When so got home a little after five, I immediately got in the shower to start getting ready for the mall. I quickly changed into a workout set and quickly ran a straightener through my hair.
I knew Robyn wouldn't be on time so I wasn't rushing, and I was right. She didn't text me that she was outside until almost six-thirty.
I left my apartment, quickly saying bye to my roommate Teyana on my way out, and went down to meet Robyn.
Her big ass Jeep was parked right in front of my building so I didn't have to look for her and went straight into her car.
"Hey boo."
She smiled at me while putting her phone back on the car mount. "Wassup? Ready?"
"Yeah. Which hoe are we getting stuff for anyway?" Robyn's been a hoe ever since she got her heart broken a couple months ago.
She rolled her eyes. "Clown shoes." They all had nicknames, most of them just naturally came about.
I laughed, "You need to leave that girl alone." Robyn's stories made me want to stay single forever.
She shook her head. "I wish I could."
"What are you trying to get for her?"
"I have to get her makeup and then some like other little shit , she won't leave me alone about this basket on Tiktok so I'm just going to do it." Robyn secretly loved doing stuff like this.
"Okay so we can go to Sephora to get her makeup, then Victoria's Secret and then look around for anything else we see. We're definitely going to need to go to Target after." I may have also loved doing stuff like this.
When we got to the mall, I made Robyn buy me a smoothie before we went in Sephora.
I helped pick out stuff that I would've wanted for myself, or stuff that I already had and knew it good. She wasn't sure of the girls size so we decided to just get her a gift card and a silk robe.
She bought her a couple more things from other stores we passed by and then we decided to go in Louis Vuitton, Robyn said she might get Clown Shoes a wallet or something.
I looked away for two seconds, and when I turned back around, she was in deep conversation. She was wearing a grey sweatsuit with a big white logo printed on her brother area of her sweatpants and on the front of the hoodie. Her curly dark blonde hair was out and almost looked wet.
I appreciated her compliment and she was cute and all, but I wasn't really looking to get into anything. Especially not with a drug dealer.
I chose to pretend to be interested in something but Robyn called me over. Ugh. I internally rolled my eyes and then raised my head up like I was clueless. "Hm?"
"You know Bey, right?"
"Kind of." I waved and did a half smile. "Hi."
She smiled and didn't even try to hide the fact that she was checking me out. "What's good?"
"Onika, she was telling me she was looking for a gift for her mom's birthday. Can you lend your feminine expertise to her too?"
"Uh..." Could I even say no if I wanted to? "Sure, what are you looking for?"
She gestured with her head for me to follow her and I did to a different part of the store. "Why haven't I seen you before last week?"
I laughed, "Is that related to your mom's gift?"
She shrugged. "Maybe."
"Well I used to live like an hour away, I just moved here not too long ago."
"Hmm." She nodded. "You got a roommate or?"
I laughed again at her boldness and then glanced back at Robyn for a second who was already looking at us. "I'm confused what this has to do with your mom's gift."
She smiled. "My mom's birthday is in January."
It was August.
"You can't be serious. So what am I doing here?"
She shrugged again. "I can't try to get to know you a little bit? You're a beautiful stranger in my city."
"Your city?"
She nodded with all the confidence in the world. "Yup. My city." She took a glance at Robyn this time. "But anyway, I'll let you get back to shopping. Robyn looks over it." She walked away from me and then quickly said bye to Robyn before leaving the store.
Robyn walked over to me with her eyebrow raised. "What was that about? She didn't even buy anything."
"She just-" I chuckled. "She just wanted to talk to me because I'm cute or whatever."
"I wouldn't get involved-"
"I'm not even thinking about it." I really wasn't, so I didn't need to be warned or anything like that.
"I couldn't tell by the way you were over here giggling, but okay."
"I don't even giggle so that's how I know you're lying. Now come on let's get this girls stuff." I just wanted to change the subject.
We found some cute sunglasses in the store and then went to Target for the rest. Robyn came over so we could put the basket together and stayed for a little while longer so we could hang out until we both mutually got tired of each other.
