I remember that night.

~~~~~~~Flashy Sounds, Swooshy Lights~~~~~~~

I stood inside the fro-yo place waiting for Zikomo to come. I hope he does show up. I was shocked when he wanted to go out with me after Adande broke my heart. He even asked me when I was in my hot mess state. He walked in looking happier than ever to see my face.

"Oh thank god. I thought you weren't going to show!" he said relaxed.

"No way, I honestly thought you weren't going to be here. I was so scared you would realize what a mess I was." I said laughing.

"Absolutely not. You are beautiful regardless to me." He said staring into my eyes. And it went on like that, for about 5 minutes.

"Erhm. Let's get some fro-yo huh?" I asked while awkwardly giggling.

"Sure, what kind you want? Ooooo they have cake batter!! I love cake batter." he screamed like a little kid. I just smiled at him, trying to forget how adorable that just was.

"Ummm i'm going to have a chocolate vanilla swirl with gummy bears and chocolate syrup on top." I say incredibly fast excitement in my voice.

He just looked at me like I was crazy. And I immediately felt embarrassed. Which I am pretty sure he could tell I was because he said, "No no. Please don't be embarrassed. I like a woman who knows what she wants." he says in a deep voice then looks away.

He made me feel... different. I will never forget the feelings I had, or how happy he was when I laughed at his corny jokes. I never wanted to leave. I love him.

No.

I loved him.

And all of a sudden, I am back in Brooklyn's car watching cars pass by. Until I see the fro-yo place again. Hello old friend.
