After Ambrie and I's meet up I haven't talked to her in forever. It's been a month now, to think that my best friend has not called nor text me in a month scares me. Not only was I going through things so was Ambrie. I honestly didn't understand and didn't care to.

"Mom! Where are is my black skirt?" I yelled to her downstairs. I have to get out this house everything I have always comes up missing because she wants to be fast and wear my things.

"I put it back where I got it from my dear." she said back.

I felt myself getting mad, I don't know why. My mom says that I need therapy, I think not.

I looked down at my phone and Deshun's phone number popped up. 

"Wassup?" I said into the phone. Over the month we have found out so many things about ourselves. I really am not in love with Deshun. I don't even know if I love myself. Deshun does other things rather than just dope.  I am the valedictorian of my class, which is so surprising to me but hey my counselor told me that and I am so I took it. Deshun is doing great in all the classes to be a physical therapists. 

"I really need your help Shy. Like please come over it's an emergency." He said into the phone. In a way I was worried but then again I could care less just like he did for me.

"Okay, I'll be there." I said.

I went downstairs to get something to eat from my mom. I honestly don't care what the emergency is, but I know that if I called him he would come racing my way.

"So what are you doing this morning?" My mom asked me.

"Well, I have a class at 12:00. But first I'm going to take Junior over his dad's house and then go to work." I said taking a bite of my bagel.

"Sounds productive, baby, get a pep in your step though, you walk around here all depressed and sad." She said. I stopped chewing. Did she not just hear what she said. I felt myself get hot.  I grabbed my food and Junior and left out the house.

I drove uptown since that's where Deshun stayed. 

I pulled into the driveway, and what do I see, balloons and signs also flowers everywhere.

I got Junior out the car also with Junior in his car seat. I was about to get back in my car and leave if this was the damn emergency.

I walked into the house and I see bags of Pink Victoria's Secret, Ivy Park, Wet Seal, Nike, also some Adidas stuff everywhere. 

"Deshun! Getcho ass down here now." I said.

I saw him walk down the stairs looking too good. I don't know why Deshun has these types of effects. Honestly, I could care less about all this.

"Hey baby, I just thought I should update your wardrobe a little." He said walking down the stairs, showing all his tattoo's and the suit he had on.

"So you expect for you to have a baby on me and then come back to you just because you spent some money on me?" I said with my hands on my hips.

"Nah baby, see I know you so well that I know you wouldn't even take it." He said smiling.

Damn him and those white teeth.  No, I will not fall for this but I will take this stuff.

"Oh, I'll take it but I'll leave you here." I said laughing at him.

"You real cold now all of a sudden. Now don't act like you were never in love with me Shy." 

"Well, let me stop you there and what I have came up with is that I really wasn't. Just think about it." I said as I walked toward him slowly. 

"I was very young, broken oh, and lets not forget innocent. Yeah, I've been there with you through everything but what does that mean to you? I can answer that for you. Look where you are and look where I'm at. You are here and I am there. I sleep good every night while you have bags under those beautiful eyes of yours. I'm not going to say that I didn't love you but I won't say that I was in love, never that. So who can really say they were in love?" I said covering my mouth and smiling.
