Confession #11: Is there a such thing as a hard decision between two guys? Two mouth watering, jaw dropping, heart thumping, mind racing...well you get the point. Let's just say these men were greek gods and I was loving the attention. Is it bad to want to have cake and eat it too? Quote of the day: "Never miss a good chance to shut up." - Will Rogers

My date with Lorenzoe was incredible. He was the first guy that has stayed on my mind since I started back dating after Le'land.Then there was the infamous Chance Miller. I had been avoiding Chance ever since the dream. He always seemed to be a mystery to me. I'm guessing that was all apart of it. We chatted a few times but nothing major. I still couldn't really look at him without blushing about that damn dream. It's been haunting me but in a good way. It was hard to not look at that man and have a smile slide across my face. I didn't want to rush anything with Zoe. Hell I barely know the damn man. He was killing it in all categories as far as I knew. From the body, face, teeth and style to the good job and sucessfulness. I just was I guess you can say afraid to know him personally. I could cause some major damn damage at the rate I'm going. I left Le'land and got divorced the moment he landed in jail. Hell It was only a $1 and that was the last thing he would ever get from me.

I was walking into my office to get my new project started and get ready for our weekly Monday meeting. I was so busy on my IPhone 5 imessaging Rocqi and checking up on my mom and pop that I didn't see Chance sitting in front of my desk until I sat everything down and took a seat myself. I jumped and clutched my chest. "Maldita sea Chance! ¿Tienes miedo a la mierda de mí! (Gah dammit Chance! You scared the fuck out of me!) What the hell are you doing in here ?!" He chuckled as he sat his phone on the desk. "Good morning to you too Lai'lanni." "Good morining my ass." I mumbled. I stood up and walked over to my closet as I put my purse and files from last week in the file cabinet. As I adjusted my hair in the mirror I decided to talk with some space between us. Ok ok alot of space. "What are you doing in here Chase?" I heard him clear his throat. I peeked out the side of the door so he would know I was listening. "Well I was just wondering..." I sighed as I walked out the closet to my desk to give him my full attention. "Have lunch with me." I blurted out. I looked at his face. I kept a soft smile on my face as I saw the shock cover his. I was shocked just as well as he was. I was never the type to approach. I was always approached. 

"Well?" I say. I checked my watch. "We have to head to the meeting room now. Let me know after if you ever find your voice." I said as I stood up with my phone, pad of paper and a pen. I winked at him and left him in the shock. After the meeting I headed back to my office to call my papa since I havn't talked to him in a few day. "Hola? (Hello)" He answered. "Buenos dias Papa.(Good Morning Papa)" "Buenos días niña. (Good Morning babygirl)" "¿Cómo está usted y mamá haciendo? (How are you and mama doing)"  He sighed. "Estamos sosteniendo niña. No tienes nada de qué preocuparse. Me gustaría verte pronto Tho. Yo y tu madre te extraño mucho. (We're holding up baby girl. You have nothing to worry about. I would like to see you soon tho. Me and you mother miss you very much.)" I sighed. "Sé Papa. Yo también te extraño. Voy a estar en casa tan pronto como tenga la oportunidad. Acabo de ser muy hundido en el trabajo. Yo llamo todos los días. (I know Papa. I miss you both too. I will be home as soon as I get the chance. I have just been very swamped at work. I do call everyday)" "Sé miel. He oído de su hermano ayer después de que su madre le llamó. Él se va a casar. Él está comprometido con una chica llamada Ayanna. Él no ha sido el hogar de dos años y ahora se va a casar. Me encanta ese chico a la muerte, sino que hace tu madre muy molesto. (I know honey. I heard from your brother yesterday after your mother called you. He's getting married. He's engaged to a girl named Ayanna. He hasn't been home in two years and now he's getting married. I love that boy to death but he makes your mother very upset.)" I knew this was coming because Lance called me last night and told me how our mother cursed him out in three different languages; seeing as how our mother is a teacher who teaches different languages at a college I could see how it was possible. My dad was very fluent in english we just preferred speaking in his native tounge because we were raised in a biracial house he felt it was best so we were accustomed to our heritage. "Papa, lanza me llamó anoche y me dijo mamá estaba molesto. Quiero decir que yo pensé que sería feliz que tiene una estructura en su vida de una vez. Piense en todas las muchas chicas que se acostaba con él y nunca nos trajo alguien en casa, incluso en la escuela trajo hay nadie en casa. Creo que esto es bueno para él. (Papa, Lance called me last night and told me mama was upset. I mean I thought you would be happy he has structure in his life for once. Think of all the many girls he was sleeping with and he never brought anyone home even in school he brought no one home. I think this is good for him.)" I was defending him only because I know what my parents were like when they didn't approve. I know Lance was happy. I could hear it in his voice. I was just praying he doesn't prove me wrong this time. My dad sighed. I knew he was thinking on what I just said."Mira Papa. Piénsalo de esta manera. Él es feliz y quiere sentar la cabeza. Eso es un gran paso que siempre ha dicho que iba a tomar cuando llegara el momento. Él es 26 años. Ustedes hicieron algo bien. (Look Papa. Think of it this way. He's happy and he wants to settle down. That's a major step he has always said that he would take when the time came. He's 26 years old. You guys did something right.)" He sighed again. I could tell he was highly upset about the situation. "Supongo que eres niña justo. Voy a tratar de conseguir que su madre al verlo de esa manera, pero ya sabes lo que puede llegar a veces. (I guess you're right baby girl. I'll try to get your mother to see it that way but you know how she can get sometimes.)" He chuckled and it caused me to laugh because my mother can tend to be a frantic drama queen sometimes. "Sí Papa lo sé. I he a alguien que entra en el oficina de modo I tengo que ir. Te quiero. Tenga cuidado, voy a hablar con ustedes más tarde y un beso mamá para mí. (Yes Papa I know. I have someone coming into the office so I have to go. I love you. Take care, I'll talk to you guys later and kiss mama for me.)" We said our last goodbyes and hung up.

Chance took a seat in front of my desk. "Was I interrupting anything? Conversation seemed kind of intense." I shook my head no. "It was my father. Family things as usual. So what brings you in here for a second time today?" I asked with a smile. "Lunch. On me. Meet me in the lobby at 12:00." I smirked. I know I was the one who intiated this but I wasn't expecting for him to come back with it. "Chance that's in like 10 minutes." He shrugged as he stood to leave. "Guess you have 10 minutes to get to the lobby then." I shook my head as I chuckled. "Wait. Where are we going?" I asked with my eyebrow raised. "You'll see. You now have 6 minutes to get to the lobby." With that he left out of my office with a little extra swagger in his walk. I admit it was really nice watching him walk away. I grabbed my things from the file cabinet. Put my out to lunch sign up and headed to the elevator to the lobby.
