I wand curled Jackie's hair, twirling the hair with my finger. We both were doing this double date thing which I think is gonna be fun. I always have fun with my sister; we tend to act fool together. "I'm so glad you decided to go on a date tonight with me, you can get that guy off your mind for a couple of hours" she said.


"I think I'm done" I said ignoring her last statement she looked at her hair swinging it left to right. "Did he call or text you? She asked.

"No" I said rolling my eyes. "Shaking my head, well at least where about to go out what are you wearing? She asked.

"Um this blue dress with my wedges" I said.

"Ummm no, you're being lazy "she said. "How about this black dress? I asked pulling it down from my closet. Its crazy how Jackie is always at my house she might as well live here. "Yeah that's sexy" she said. I quickly placed it on, modeling it on moving my figure side to side. "I think you're right" I smiled.



Jackie and I walked in the restaurant to meet the guys. I had no idea what this guy looked like; I hope he was fine or just as good looking as Jacob. I greeted Tyriq and he was a tall chocolate brother with dreads. Kind of looked like Wale to me. He definitely looked good for my sister. We sat at the stable "Oh Tia, my brother will be back shortly he went to the restroom" he ensured me. I definitely didn't want to be a third wheel. I looked down at my phone scrolling down Instagram while Jackie and Tyriq were conversing.

"I'm sorry I took so long" I heard a deep voice linger from behind me. I quickly looked up to see him walk to the chair in front of me. And all I could say was damn; he was tall and caramel with a nice beard and nice dark brown eyes. This guy resembled Michael Jordan to me fine as hell.

"Hello" he said reaching his hand out for me. "Hi, my name is Tia" I said shaking his hand.

"I must say you look stunning" he said.

"Why thank you, you look nice as well" I smirked. "What Yall love birds talking about already? Tyriq asked and I squinted my eyes I hated when people did the most. We definitely are two people getting to know each other. The waitress came over asking us for our beverages.

"I will have pink lemonade" I said. I looked over at him. "And I'll have cranberry juice" he said.

"Healthy choice? I said. "Well you know I gotta stay fit and healthy for this job " he said playfully flexing. "And what is that? What's your profession? I asked

"I am a police officer" he said proudly and my eyes widened in shock. I didn't need to deal with anymore Officers. But I wasn't that worried I mean there are 10 difference branches of stations he could be in.

"Oh do you like it? I asked."Yeah, I mean I have my days when I just want to come home and have a special somebody to chill with but other than that it's exciting" he explained and all I could think about was Jacob.

"I have a few friends that are officers one of them is so busy, is it true that being an officer takes up your personal life? I asked.

"Most definitely" he laughed and maybe I was thinking I've been overreacting lately.

"But, you make time for the people you love you know. Seems like the guy you're messing with can't keep your interest huh?? He asked taking a sip of his juice.

"Maybe" I smirked. "Excuse me I have to use the lady's room? I said slowly getting up from the chair. I pulled my dress down wiping any wrinkles before I turned around.

"Get them hands clean girl" he said and I lightly chuckled walking away. Raheem was very attractive and could hold a conversation, I wasn't in love or anything but he seems like a guy I could keep around, I am single and I have to explore my options right. I walked towards the ladies room and a man walked out of the gentlemen's room that I didn't want to see.

"Tia" he said.

"Santana" I said quickly walking in the ladies room. "Shit, fuck fuck fuck" I shouted quickly washing my hands. What in the world was my ex doing here. I haven't seen him in almost a year I wanted nothing to do with him. I pulled my dress down and opened the door with a towel. He was still there waiting for me.

"Well um it was nice seeing that you're alive" I said quickly walking away before he pulled my arm

"Tee Tee wait" he said. "Don't call me that" I said sternly. "How are you? He asked.

"All is well, you? I asked pretending like I didn't care but I was a little curious why he was here all dressed up.

"I'm okay it could be better not complaining " he said.

"Well I have a date to be attending so it was nice checking basis with you" I said and I felt my heart melt. I began walking but he called my name stopping me again.

"It's not what it looked like, it was a total accident. I swear" he explained and I knew exactly what he was talking about... "That was a long accident then, you take care of your son" I said leaving him there. I sat back at the table and our food was there. I like how Raheem waited for me before he touched his plate. "You okay? He asked.

"Y-yeah I'm fine, let's dig in" I half smiled. But I wasn't , I just saw my ex that crushed my heart in a million pieces and the guy I like , I don't get. We all were laughing and chopping it up at the table but I noticed that Raheem kept staring at someone. I turned around and peeked at my ex talking to some man. I was becoming uncomfortable and just wanted to go home.
