"Hey baby , how are ya? " My mother asked . "Hey , ma . I'm good . Just getting these boxes inside . " I told her , managing to get my boxes inside my new apartment . "How's Jojo? " I asked . "He's fine , baby . Your father is making gumbo ! You hear that Jojo ? Gummbooooo ! " I laughed & dropped the box in the kitchen . "I miss you guys . I'll be over there soon , I just need to get these boxes inside . "
"Alright baby , come see us when you're done . "

I hung up the phone and walked out to the U-haul truck for the rest of Jordan's things. "Thanks for the help ," I said sarcastically to the driver . I grabbed the heavy box and almost tripped walking inside .

"Need a hand ? " Somebody asked .

I turned around and there was a small brown skinned girl in my driveway . I smiled ar her and nodded quickly . She grabbed the box out my hand , " Where do you want it ?" She asked . I pointed in the kitchen & she left it on the counter , then turned to me . "I'm Mya. I live next door . " I smiled at her and went to get more boxes , " I'm Tori . ".

" New to Denver ?  " She asked .

"No. Just new to this part of town. "

"Nice to meet you ,Tori . You have a son, I see . " She smiled lifting up another box .

"Yeah , Jordan . He's two . "

"Cool ! I have a daughter , Raelyn . She's three . "

" I'm 23 . How old are you ,Tori ? " She asked .

"21. Finishing school & all that stuff. " I told her .

" That's good , Well that seems to be it . Hey , why don't you & your son come to dinner with my family next door sometime ?"  I gave her a thank-you-hug and nodded , "Sounds good , Bye Mya  !"

"Bye Tori !"

I locked up , got into my car and drove off to get my son .
