Me and Lisa sat in the food court with shopping bags and munched on some McDonald's.

"My best friend is on her way. You're gonna like her, she's the bomb. Her and pac used to date back when he lived over here. Now she's with some older dude, I think his name is Robert." Lisa shrugged.

"Older?" I raised my eyebrow.

"That fool in his late 20's. When I say 'older', I mean it." She popped a French fry in her mouth.

"Her family hates that they're together, but I guess she in love... Whatever that is. Oh, here she comes." Lisa pointed.

I looked ahead to see a slender girl with long hair and captivating eyes. She appeared to be a tomboy, but her look was phat. Her baseball cap was on backwards and she wore dark brown lipstick that complimented her caramel skin tone.

By the way I gawked at her, you would've thought I was into girls. But yo, when I say this chick was gorgeous... Shiiiiit. Every guy looked back at her and tried to get her number.

"Please." She rolled her eyes and held her hand up to them.

"Lisa!!" She ran and hugged a jumpy Lisa.

"Hey, girl! Where's Robert?" She asked.

"He's in his skin, somewhere... Who's this?" The girl smiled at me.

"This is Mo.. Mo, this is my homegirl, Aaliyah." Lisa beamed.

I shook her hand and complimented her outfit.

"Thanks! I like your threads, too. But Lisa, I just came to scoop y'all. We finna blow this spot and hit the courts. I know there's some fine brothers over there, there's nothing but bustas in this mall and its crampin my style. Dig?" Aaliyah looked over her shades with a eyebrow raised.

"Mo...?" Lisa looked at me.

"Wassup, you down?" Aaliyah eyed me next.

"Shit, why not?" I shrugged.

We headed out.

"Careful, you know Pac don't want you messin with these 'dirty' cats." Lisa cackled.

"Pssshtt. He is a dirty cat. The nerve of his black ass." Aaliyah threw salt in our conversation.

"Get over it, Liyah. I thought you moved on.." Lisa questioned.

"Been over that fool." Aaliyah lied. She clearly wasn't.

"That boy is fuineeee with a capital 'F'! Hey, boo!" Lisa waved.

He gave her a head nod. "What it is, lil mama?"

"I'm gonna break him off... See you hoochies later!" Lisa diddybopped.

"Mac on.." Aaliyah and I said in unison, giggling afterwards.

"That girl is something. What about you, you ain't gon look for a boo?" Aaliyah asked.

"Girl, ain't nobody worried about me." I shook my head.

Aaliyah looked behind me and smiled.
"Give it 5 seconds.." She said.

"Wh-what?" I raised a eyebrow.

"How you doing?" I heard a husky voice behind me.
I turned to see a tall kid with light brown eyes, fair skin, and luscious lips.

"I'm fine..." I smiled.

"You sure are, what's your name? I haven't seen you around here before."
