Camille,

"Okay, I'll be there to get you in two hours. We can go to Verizon after." My dad said through the hotel phone.

No, I didn't tell him what happened. I told him I lost my phone and I need a new one. My face has also healed, except for the little cut on my eyebrow, that can be fixed with make up.

I still have to get back into my apartment so I can get my clothes. It's so much to do. I can't even believe this happened to me, but I missed all of the warning signs.

Odell was also right. No I'm not telling him that, but he was.

After hanging up with my dad I drove to Odell's. I know he won't be there, but I put an extra key in a draw in his house when I first moved in.

When I got there I knocked on the door and Jasmine opened it.
"Hi Camille!" She said giving me a huge hug.

"Hi Jas."

"Oh my gosh I haven't seen you in months."

"I know! Are you here by yourself?"

"No Kordell is here." She said rolling her eyes.

After I went in Tzar came up to me and started licking my legs. He does this every time I come around.

"How long are you going to be down here?" I asked.

"Just a few more months. I'm glad I graduated early, but I'm going back to Louisiana."

"You don't like New York?"

"I do, but it's too much stuff going on for me." She said. Her accent was unleashed.

"Aren't you going to the game?" I asked surprised she was here.

"I was, but Odell told me I couldn't. I swear he thinks he's my dad."

"He think he my dad to." Kordell said walking into the living room with a bowl of cereal.

"He mean now. Ever since he got drafted he acts like he's to good for some of the people back home."
She wasn't lying. It was true.

"That's what money does to people." I said. Going to get my key.

"Guess what happened yesterday!" Jasmine said following me.

"What?"

"His ex girlfriend called and I almost cussed her out. I only found out about her because I saw them in his game room. I swear my brother is a big they sometimes."

"I agree, he needs to just focus on football." I said walking back out.

"Well I'll see you around Camille." Jasmine said standing in the front door.

"Alright bye." I said. Trying to get out of here and make it to my apartment.

When I pulled up to my apartment I was nervous as hell to go in, but I had to. I parked my car in another parking lot so Ahmad wouldn't be able to tell us I was here. I didn't see his car though so I might be good.

I walked through the whole unit and he wasn't in here. I quickly went back to the front door and put the chain on and locked it.

Nothing seemed different and I didn't get a bad vibe. I jumped into the shower and got a few outfits out. I put them in my duffel bag. This was just an emergency bag that I'm going to keep in the trunk of my car. Hopefully I won't be needing it anytime soon again though.

After finally getting ready I put on a little makeup so that I still looked natural. It really fucking sucked not having my phone. I had went online and erased everything off of it. I'm glad Apple has that option.

My dad knocked on my door about twenty minutes after that. I literately ran to the door. I think I was more excited about getting my phone then the visit all together.

"Camille, Camille, Camille. I can't believe your out here all by yourself, my first born is an adult now." He said giving me a hug.

"You look really tired dad." I said examining his face.

"I know honey, I am. I feels like as soon as football ends it starts right back up."

"Aren't you ready to stop coaching football?"

"How would I pay for all of your clothes if I stopped?" He asked.

I get clothes every time he puts more money in my account. I'm like a clothes addict. I cried once when I couldn't find my shorts and cussed Odell out because I lost an earring.
It's that bad.

"You know what. Don't stop coaching." I said grabbing my jacket and locking my door. Just as I was going down the stairs I saw a car that looked like Ahmad's, but it wasn't.

My heart was beating too fast.
It's felt like the time when you'd go somewhere you weren't supposed to be and then saw a car the looked like your parents, and it wasn't them.

When I got in the backseat of the escalade my dad handed me a box that was wrapped up. Christmas isn't for another three months and my birthday is in July so what was this?

As I opened the gift up it was a iPhone 6s box. I was kinda upset because I wanted to get the iPhone 7 when I came out, but now I'm going to have to wait even longer since this one just came out.

"Is it the right color?" He asked.

"Yes thank you." I said still grateful. It was the rose gold one.

"Well hello to you to." Kathy said.
I just looked over at her and then started setting up my phone. She was sitting right next to me and I swear I was so close to the door that I would fall out of it was opened.

"I don't bite Camille." She said in a low tone.

"How do you chew your food then?" I asked getting a little smart.

"One day your going to regret the way you treat me." She said.

What the fuck does that mean?

"Oh." Was all I said.
