Today was my birthday and i just wanted to relax. i had an off day and i was still laying in bed. i had a few calls from my mom, my siblings, and my friends in the industry. i expected Kyrie to be the first to call me but he still hasnt, even a few of Kyries friends in the NBA called me.

i sat up in bed once i heard a knock on my hotel room door. i sighed getting up and grabbing my robe walking over to the door. as i grabbed the handle and opened the door room service came in with a whole trade full of food. he wheeled it to my bed and then handed me the roses i didn't know he had in his hand.

i smiled automatically thinking this was all Kyries doing.

"for you mad'am."

i grabbed the roses from his hand as he made his way out the door. i smelled them before finding a small note inside them. I pulled it out setting the roses on the nightstand. I opened the small note reading it.

"roses are red, violets are blue...I'm wack at this poem shit but I'm putting in effort cause I love you. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL"

The note didn't have a signature but I just knew it was kyrie with his corny jokes. as much as I was upset about our situation. after the past week I just been in love with the idea of us getting our shit together. he even put out the idea of us going to counseling. i agreed.

i decided i would call him to thank him. i picked up my phone from my nightstand and unlocked my phone making my way to him name. just as i was about to dial his number there was another knock at my door. i hopped up making my way to the door opening it.

"hey sleepy head," Wiz said walking right in messing up my messy hair even more.

"be quiet " I laughed closing the door behind him.

"you liked the roses ?" he asked catching me off guard. I looked over to the counter as he touched the roses smirking.

"those were from you ?" I asked slowing placing my phone down on the bed relieved I didn't call Kyrie and embarrass myself, and kinda upset that they weren't from him.

"yea, who you think they were from ?" he laughed

"kyrie ... I mean it said 'i love you' on them " I mumbled.

"why you still thinking about his ass. he fucked up you need to show him you can move on or he's just gonna do it again. you are letting him off the hook too easy Le" he urged.

" I never said me and him were back together. but I'm gonna let him show effort in getting me back. I'm not just gonna completely block him out Wiz we have a family together" I admitted.

"so you just gonna go back to him because you guys made a family? what about your happiness?"

"wiz he makes me happy. where is all this coming from? I know I told you about my problems and you gave me good advice before but now.... I feel like your trynna make me leave him altogether" I looked at him up and down.

"look, Le, we have known each other for a grip. I believe that you deserve someone better than him--"

"who someone like you?" i blurted our catching on to his moves.

"well I mean yea," he shrugged. I shook my head laughing. was this really happening right now? I have known Wiz for a while now and never have I ever had a thought of us being together and never have I ever gave him any idea that that would ever happen. I strictly looked at him as a friend and nothing more.

"look I'm flattered that you went out your way to show me what I deserve, but I don't look at you in that way Wiz. you're like a big brother to me. I love you but not like that. I love my husband and despite what you and anybody else thinks I'm gonna make sure we get our family back on track. I'm sorry that you thought this was a possibility between us but I'm sorry it's not." I said as nicely as possible.
