What Is Forever? (on hold)

Expect the Unexpected

*Kv Pov*

"So after everything we've been through, I'm finally down here on my good knee." Everybody laughed at that. I continued on.

"I can't go the rest of my life without you next to me as my bestfriend, my lover, and my wife. You mean the world to me, Aaliyah and i wouldn't want any other woman to carry my name and my child. I can't go through this rollercoaster, we call life, without you. Will you marry me?"

She screamed and said "yes" as she cried. I took the ring out of the black box and put it on her finger. It was a perfect fit, too. I stood up and she kissed me. After all this time, she would finally become Mrs. Mendez. A slow song came on and we danced. Everybody came on the dance floor with a partner.

The music mellowed out as I heard "All my niggas as rich as fuck!" My alarm blared and woke me out of my dream. Thats that bull shit! Straight up!

I got up and took a shower, brushed my teeth, and washed my face. It was a Saturday and i aint have no plans so I just threw on my basketball shorts and decided to let my tattoos display today. I had one across my stomach that read "Only God Can Judge Me" with a cross under it and a portrait of my face, to the side. The other one, was right over my heart. It said "Distance is our barrier but only for a while. But forever in my memory is your beautiful smile. Although im missing you and your beautiful soul, I have your heart in my hand to hold. I hope you can forgive and be proud of me. Because im living my life in YOUR legacy!" All of my bros had a tat relating to "Only God Can Judge Me." Believe it or not, we done all been on some stupid shit and have had to change for the better. Well, some of us. Dre' seems to be laggin behind. I been meanin to get at him, anyway! We aint really talked since the game. He been showin up to practices but he leaves right after and wont say shit to nobody. Wtf is up with him, I dont even know but ima find out! I sent that fool a text.

Me: Wassup ma nigga

To my surprise, he replied right back.

TickleMeElmo: Nun, just posted

Me: Really? I mean wassup?! Like tf is up wit you recently?

TickleMeElmo: Man, its a lot bro

Me: Well get to talkin and hopefully we done by next month.

TickleMeElmo: lol Bro, im omw

Me: Aight man.

I went in Mama Lo's room to check on her and she was still asleep. I smelled something bomb coming from the kitchen, though! Liyah aint supposed to be here till noon. I looked at my phone and it was 8:39. I walked downstairs quietly and peeked around the kitchen wall. Wtf? It was Michael.

"Goodmorning son." He said without looking up.

"Goodmorning and no disrespect but its Kv to you."

"Haha my bad, Kv." He laughed.

"No prob man but why you here?" I asked getting straight to the point.

"I stayed the night with your grandmother. Where's your mom, anyway?" That hit a soft spot. I shot that nigga the dirtiest look I had in me.

"Not like that, son..." He started.

"Kv", I intervened.

"Kv. I stayed in the guest room and decided to thank you both by cooking for you."

"You tryna kiss ass, huh?" I asked.

"Haha if thats what they call it."

I grabbed a piece of bacon from the plate. That shit was bomb too!
