I actually woke up at 11 something today and to my surprise I had a good dream. There was a knock on the door since my mom was here she got it. I walked into the bathroom and did my morning hygiene and took a hot shower. I put a pair of house shorts and a tank on not knowing what to do with my hair I put it in a messy bun at the top of my head. I walk in the kitchen to greet my mom.

" you have a special deliver by a special admirer." She said smirking and turning me around to see a flower vase being held by a big teddy bear.

I honestly don't like flowers. I took the note that was not on the flowers but in the teddy bears shirt pocket.

" you are the first and last thing on my mind everyday I love everything about you but most importantly I love you, love your secret admirer."

It read. Leaving me confused I don't think these could have came from Danny because his names not on it and he's no secret or admirer.

I went in my room and shot Danny a text.

" hey... Did you get me flowers and a Teddy bear."

" I can if you want me too." He texted shortly back.

" lol never mind then ttyl. "

" naw wait how bout we chill today."

" sure but it might have to be later got work how about waffle house?" I asked.

" yea let me know when to come."

" um... Would you mind picking me ."

" naw where you gone be at." He asked.

" at the salon down on Jefferson the white and black building."

"Ight "

" okay see you then."

I texted back putting my phone down.
My thoughts then shifted back to the flower and Teddy bear. Who is this secret admirer and who ever it is how did they find out where I live.

" hurry up and get dressed can't be in lala land forever." My mom said.

I sucked my teeth I truly don't feel like going. I decided on a long black and white striped high waist skirt that stopped at my ankle a black tight half shirt that revealed a small portion of my stomach showing some of my belly button. I put on some black plain flats. And my silver necklace and bracelet set.

I flat ironed my hair parting it in the middle and swooping the left side of my hair over to the right. I then added eyeliner and mascara and a light shade of pink lipstick.

I look in the full size mirror to see my ending result and I loved it. I couldn't wait to see Danny today.

I grabbed my phone and walked out the house locking the door behind me. I could see my mom smiling at me through the car window I returned the smile and got in the passenger side.

" you had me waiting in the car for damn near twenty minutes but it was all for a good cause... You look beautiful!" My mom complimented.

I thanked her. She started to remind me of my Aunt Viv. I truly miss her I might call her when I get home...

Soon we arrived at the shop. I went to the sink and washed my hands. And stood behind my station texting Ya'ria her and Joshua was going out to today I don't see why they just won't go together they know they like each other. Let me hush cause I got my own situation going on. The bell rung indicating that some one had walked in. I looked over to see my lil boo running over to me.
