We left the pool party and August came back with me to our hotel suite.
I felt bad about the situation that occurred, so I called and text Aaron a numerous amount of times until I got a response, but I had no luck getting through.
I know he was ready to kick me down a flight of steps.
I decided to just give it some time for him to answer me so I took a nice hot shower, snuggled in bed with August afterwards, and ended up falling asleep.
I couldn't even stay awake until midnight to receive all of my birthday wishes.
Around a quarter to 6AM, I felt August ease out of the bed, causing me to wake up since I had my head rested on his chest.
I looked at him with squinted eyes, seeing that he was getting dressed.

"Where are you going? ", I asked him, in my half sleep voice.

"I gotta go start gettin' ready for dis interview."

I sat up and rubbed my eyes. "What time you comin' back? "

"I'm not sure babe. I got a few shit lined up today before I head back home tomorrow."

He was able to make out my dramatic sad face in the dim light, so he leaned over the bed and kissed my forehead.

"Happy birthday baby.", he said. "Finish gettin' some rest and I'll holla atchu later, okay."

I nodded, "Okay."

"I love you."

"Love you too."

He kissed me once more, with a peck on the lips, and then left.

Later that morning, Jennifer, Evelyn, and Myla came busting through the door, jumping on the bed screaming 'happy birthday'.
Although I was laying on my side, Myla straddled my hip and began kissing my cheek.

"Get your heavy ass off of me!", I grunted.

She got off of me and smacked my butt through the covers.
"C'mon hoe! Get up!"

I turned over and sat up.
"Y'all are so annoying. What if I was in here naked wit' August? "

"He just would've had to cover up and I seen your boobs before, so let's go! Get up and brush ya stank ass breath so we can eat.", she said.

"Brush ya breath though? ", Evelyn said, laughing.

"Where is Aug anyway?", Jennifer asked me.

"He had to leave for an interview.", I responded. "And where are we goin'? I honestly just wanna stay in bed. I'm still a lil tired from yesterday."

"Oh okay. Well, I mean we don't have to go out right now. We can just have brunch on the balcony 'til you decide what you wanna do.", Jen said.

"Alright."

Shortly after bothering me for a couple of minutes extra, I got up to brush my teeth and wash my face.
My phone rang with a facetime call from my mother, so I sat on the bed and answered it.

"Turn the camera the other way around mom.", I said with a small chuckle.

"Oh! Okay, here we go.", she said once she got it to face her. "Happy birthday and many many more to come! I love you sweetie."

"Thanks mommy. I love you too."

"How's your trip? When are you leaving? ", she asked.

"We had fun and tomorrow evening."

"Oh okay. Where's Myla? What's she up to? "
