Chapter 3: Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe
“I am a sinner, that’s prolly gonna sin again,
Lord forgive me, Lord forgive me,
Things I don’t understand..”
The first day back to school from break was pretty straight, same ol same ol. I couldn’t help but thinking about what Jonathan told me, Maya was like the girl of my dreams man. It’s crazy cause I never have a problem getting a female, but Maya she different. It’s like no matter what I do to impress her she just never seems to notice, I think that’s why I feel the way I do cause most of the time if I snap my fingers I can get three girls like that. But not Maya..
I walked in the house after basketball practice and smelled something cooking, smelled like heaven on earth! When I walked in the kitchen I seen Layla whipping up something, I can’t even front my little sis can cook her ass off.
“Wassup big head.” I said mushing the side of her face.
“E quit playing!” she said smacking my hand.
“Quit crying, what you cooking?” I asked lifting up a top on one of the pots. Yes! One of my favorite meals: Cabbage, cornbread, and roast.
“Hell yeah sis you in here throwing down!” I said rubbing my hands together.
“Well you know how I do.” She said laughing, “How was practice?”
“It was cool, I think we going back to the ship this year! You know I can use another ring! But anyway, where my baby girl at?” I said looking around for Persia.
“I had put a movie on for her in my room, she didn’t even watch half of it before she was knocked out.”
“Aww my baby tired.” I said walking out the kitchen to go to Layla room. Man I love my little girl with all my heart. The sight of her little self knocked out on the bed made my heart melt. I knew better than to bother her though, I loved her but I definitely enjoyed the quiet time. I went in my room and plopped down on the bed and turned on the tv. I was chilling watching an old “Cosby Show” rerun when my cell went off, it was a number I didn’t recognize,
“Hello?” I said into the phone.
“Hey is this Eric?” her voice said, my eyes grew big when I realized who it was.
“Yeah this him, who this?” I said tryna play it cool.
“It’s Maya from school. How are you?”
“Oh wassup girl, I’m good. Wassup?” I couldn’t believe Maya was on the other end of the line.
“Nothing really. Umm, I know this is kind of random and weird but I was wondering if you wanted to get together sometime?”
My mouth slightly dropped, I couldn’t believe she was “asking me out” that’s some shit girls just don’t usually do. Yeah they flirt with a brother but they be to shy or scared to just ask me out. That’s why I like Maya, she different.
“Are you there?” I heard her voice say.
“Yea-“, my voice slightly cracked, I cleared my throat. “Yeah I’m here, yeah that would be cool.”
“Great, how about Friday? Around 6 maybe?”
“I got basketball practice til 6, so what about 7?”
“That’s cool. Well I’ll see you then.” She said about to get off the phone.
“Yeah, but hey wait, Maya let me ask you something.” I said.
