Allura's POV
Everything has been good lately. Earlier in the week it was Momma Nat birthday. Her, Nathan, his brother, Jayda, Tymir, and I took her out to eat for it. I got her candles, and things for her condo for her birthday. I really love watching the kids here at the hotel. They are so sweet. Also I have started working at the dance studio, and I love it. It feels great to be dancing, and moving my body. Feel even better to teach, and pass on my talent. I started school on Monday. I love it, it is just a lot of work. Jayda has let me borrow her black Honda until my car get here next month. I drive a red Volkswagen beetle 2009. It is my first car, and I had it since I was sixteen.
I am on my way to Walmart they ask could I buy things they need for the daycare. They gave me the company card to use. I haven't seen Nathan at all today which is surprising because I know he had to work today. I walked inside Walmart in heaven. I love grocery shopping I will spend hours in a store. The first thing I got is snacks for the children. I got a few junk food, and a lot of fruit, and other healthy snacks. Next I went to the art craft section to get some things out of there. Then I move to the school supplies because we are going to need plenty of those since the kids just got out of school not too long ago for the summer. I grabbed a few more things before making it to the check out line. After I left I went to the hotel putting everything up in the room that I watch the children in. I knocked on Nathan's office door, but I didn't get answer.
"Hi have you seen the manger?" I asked one of the ladies at the front desk. Her name tag read Erinn. The other two were busy helping customers.
"He's somewhere around here I tell him you looking for him." She winked at me.
"Thank you." I said. I don't want to be in my room bored for rest of the day, so I decided to explore the city. I parked the car. I got out exploring downtown. The first place I went to is a black owned boutique. I always shop at them. I don't care for top designers things. Most of the time the people who own them are racist. I think its sad how people don't support the black community, our own people. I found so much cute, and unique things in the shop. I wrote the address down in my booklet that I always carry around with me. I will be coming here a lot. Next I went inside this magic store. I'm happy it is black owned too. I can tell from all the African things inside.
"Hi. How are you?" Let me know if you need any help with anything?" The pretty dark lady said. She has her hair in locks.
"Alright." I gave a soft smile. I went over to the incense first. I picked up Cinnamon, Jasmine, Lavender, Musk, Rose, and Vanilla. The I got some sage. Then a few crystals. I got Rose Quartz, Black Tourmaline Crystal, and Selenite Wand. Then I got chakras necklace, and a bracelet. Then I got ankh necklace.
"You found everything okay?" She asked me as I came up to pay for my things.
"Yeah I did." I looked her in her eyes. She's seems familiar to me.
"Have a great day." She smiled.
"You too." I said leaving. Now I'm hungry as hell. I could go for some Jamaican food. I pulled out my phone to see if there were any around. It is one around the corner, so I walked down to it.
Today I have on a burgundy jump suit, black sandals, and my hair is in a wash and go style. I walked inside went to the front ordered me curry chicken, rice, and peas, fried plantains, and carrot juice. Then I sat down waiting for them to call me up so I can get my food. Fifteen minutes later my food was ready. I said my grace, then started eating. This food is really good. I will be back here too.
I love these moments where I can just have me time. I feel so free in my life at the moment. My grandma death hasn't hit me hard yet. I'm not ready for it to hit me yet. 2016 has been so good to me. I just wanna thank God for the many blessings I've been receiving this year. I deserve to be happy, and have inner peace. Especially after all the hell, and back I've been through! Five years ago I went through it first loosing my great grandma, my break up with Demetrius, losing DJ, barely having my mom around, and battling with my depression, and my anxiety. My journey has been tough. I was raised God wouldn't put you through no more than you can bare. I finished eating my food, so I just sat there while thinking.
