Never Stop Being You

- Kyrie

* One month later *

It's mid-September and it's almost time for me and Devyn to be making our way up North. I was excited about the trip but Devyn didn't seem excited.

Ever since that day I left her sleep at my house she been jumpy as hell. Like somebody out to get her or something. She barely let's me touch or talk to her and we never work on the project at my house no more. When we do work on it at my house she stays right up under me like she scared of somebody.

That girl have her ways I tell ya'.

"Devyn!" I called out to her as I saw her getting into her Audi.

"Yeah?" she asked quietly. "You good? You haven't been yourself lately," I spoke softly too. "Don't act like you know me," she mumbled. "Here you go again. I thought we was growing and changing for the better. Not going back to our old ways," I sighed.

"Well sometimes you just get choked up by things that's not even suppose to be choking ya huh?" She said bitterly. "What the hell is that supposed to mean..." I mumbled as she hopped in her car and sped off.

I don't know but I wanna' get to the bottom of it. This past month, me and Devyn have somewhat grown close. We work on the project at least 3 times a week at different locations. I don't know why she can't just come to my crib anymore. I guess she starting to go back to that "white girl" shit.

She was perfectionist so right now we're working on perfecting the essays. We still have fun and talk though. I'm learning more about her and vice versa. She actually is a cool chick. Just her mindset needs a whole lot of changing. Devyn thinks the world revolves around her and her lifestyle but I constantly remind her that it don't. She so stubborn though.

I'd be a liar if I said I wasn't attracted to her. Sometimes I brush up against her ass or stroke her cheek with my hand just to see a reaction but she never really gives me one. I don't think she's feeling me. It don't matter because I got Yas anyways.

Speaking of Yas, she doesn't like Devyn at all. I'm waiting for the day that they fight. That shit gone be sexy because Yasmin just sexy when fighting and Devyn is sexy while mad. It sounds crazy but it aint.

I chuckled as I thought about Devyn. Soon, I'mma be with her and D.C. I really plan on hitting because I've grown very close to her and I'm really her only friend in the hood. Without me, she'd be a loner at that school but I can't allow that. I keep it one hunnid' with her and make sure she straight. And that's even if she's arrogant and stuck up.

- Devyn

I walked into my house and kicked off my shoes. This past month has been long as hell.

After being molested, I've had a hard time. I didn't know what to do and I really wanted to tell someone so I did. I told Darnell. After telling him, we grew closer and closer. He is really my new bestfriend and I couldn't ask for anyone better. He understands where I'm coming from and always gives me the best advice. I know that I can count on him and he'll probably be the first black guy to meet my dad. That says a lot...

As for Kyrie, me and him are also close but not as close as my relationship with Darnell. The project is definitely make us be around each other a lot though. Me and Kyrie can talk for hours and never get bored. He's constantly trying to change me. I don't like that. He says it's for the better but I disagree. Darnell has the better interest at heart for me than Kyrie does.
