I woke up to a loud rap on my door and realized I had fallen asleep on the sofa.

"Who is it?" I yelled. I hate it when people wake me from my sleep! My house better be on fire!

"Its me, Flo," came a barely audible reply. I rushed to the door and opened it. She was looking like someone just killed her dog.

"What's wrong?" I questioned, as she came in and we both sat on the sofa.

"Where do I start?" She sighed, suddenly getting back all her energy, and then some. "Ok. So this bitch..."

You just know that the story is going to be interesting when it starts with those three words so I got more comfortable as I listened.

She continued. "So this bitch at the airport..."

Before she continued I asked "What were you doing at the airport? "

"Today is the day Dimitri is coming to Jamaica. I found out right after we left tastee's. I should have been at work like..." She looked at her watch. "...3 hours ago and I'm not there because I wanted to go see Dimitri and after I sacrificed my job and went to the airport I found out that it was rented for the day and no one was allowed in. So here I am standing in the parching sun waiting for his ride to pass by so I could at least have a glimpse of him, when I saw him walk by with this white, blonde girl. I was so offended! No one told me he had a girl. Well I got past that when I saw how more hot he is in real life. Pictures don't do it justice, girl! Then the bitch he was with, that's the bitch I was telling you about, Hmmmm, girl if eyes could kill I'd be a dead woman right now. I mean, I was just looking but she thinks that just 'cuz she has some crazy ass billionaire that she's more than just the hoe she is! I just wanna see her again! I would tear her skinny ass apart then put her back together just to tear her apart again! I wou-"

I was disappointed. I thought she had something interesting to say. "You don't know him," I reminded her. "How could you get jealous because he was with someone? BTW, since when is looking at someone a crime?" I smiled at her.

"Its not the fact that she looked at me. Its how she looked at me. The take-yo-eyes-off-my-man look." She said. "Anyways, did you cook anything? I'm hungry."

"No," I said "I was waiting for Dimitri to come take us to Pegasus."

"Mock all you want but you'd be the same if you saw him," she said and got up. "Well I have to go explain to my boss that I had chik-v and couldn't get to work early."

I laughed "No one gets that anymore," I told her.

"Well, I'll think of something," she said and left.

I walked to the kitchen and checked the cupboard for something to cook. Like I thought, it was empty.

I took $300 from my purse and left for the shop. As I stepped out my door I was enchanted once again by the house next door. I don't know what it was with that house but every time I see it I fall in love with it all over again. It was my dream house, too bad I couldn't affoard it. It had 'for rich people' written all over it. I sighed and continued my journey to the shop.

I returned home with a pound of rice, a pound of chicken, a packet of curry powder, and a packet of kool aid. I cooked rice with curried chicken (my favorite) and made kool aid.

I had finished eating and was doing the dishes when there was another rap on my door. Exasperated, I opened the door.

"Flo! The door is always open! You can just come in instead of-"
I didn't finish. I stared blankly at the handsome man standing at the other side of my door. He was wearing a versace t-shirt that imprinted his muscular biseps and his 6 pack abs, blue jeans and jordans. Saying he was drop dead gorgeous was an understatement! His face was vividly familiar.

"Can I help you?" I said, trying to keep my cool.

"Hi," he said in a sexy Australian accent. "I'm Dimitri Cromwell. I'm staying at the house next door. Just wanted to know my neighbor." He outstretched his hand.

"Vivica Monroe," I hardly managed to say as I shook his hand. I could hardly believe what was happening.

"Ok. Nice to meet you, Ms. Monroe," he said.

I just stood there like a fool and stared into his beautiful blue eyes.
