Chris

(Chris and Rita on Facetime)

"Chris is that really what your wearing!" Rita yells through the phone

I laugh. "Yes, what's wrong with it!"

"You know they said they needed everyone to look decent and act like they got some sense! You have on a fitted cap and a Polo pullover." She angrily speaks as I play Madden

I poke out my lip. "But at least I'm wearing white..."

"Uggghhhh you make me so sick! You have 2 hours, and you better not be late picking me up." She rolls her eyes

"Aite baby, I'll be there in a few!" I say blowing a kiss at her

She smiles. "I swear I hate you..."

"And I love you even more." I wink ending the call. She knows she cant stay mad at me

phone rings as soon as we hang up

CB: Yo, what's up?

Robb: Aye, what time this shit start?

CB: We got to be there at 5

Robb: Wait, where we got to be at 5? I thought it was at auntie house?

CB: Naw ma said she not cooking for all of us, we meeting at Ruth Chris

Robb: Damn, when was yall gone tell a nigga?

CB: What the fuck, you were in the house when we talked about it

I let out a sigh...

CB: Aite cuz, just let me know when yall on the way

Ends Call

Let me just get my life together so I'm not late picking up this girl...

Arriving at Rita's house @4:50pm

I pull up to her house, and she's already outside going off about me being late

"What the fuck Chris, we have 10 minutes to get there through downtown traffic!" She yells slamming my door

I look over to her. "You lost your damn mind." I laugh but she just sits there with her arms folded. "Look baby, we will get there on time, and everybody will see your little outfit."

"Shutup, Chris!" She snaps pushing my hand away

I squeeze her thigh tight. "I'll deal with your attitude later." I speak lowly not breaking eye contact with her. Her face softens, and she doesn't move my hand. I pull out of the driveway, and we make it to Ruth Chris' in 25 minutes. I get out the car and go over to open the door for Rita. "You good boo?" I ask helping her out of the car

"Yeah, just hungry..." she speaks lowly not letting go of my hand. I squeeze her hand tight, and she grabs ahold of my arm. I miss being with Rita like this. Two kids in love, just me and her, and no bullshit to get in the way.

"Party of two?" The waitress speaks in an enthusiastic tone, smiling at the both of us

Rita smiles back. "No, we're with the Brown party. Has everyone arrived?"
