     When I was running to class, my phone kept beeping and ringing. Turning that damn phone on after last night was not a great idea right now. But it was my only source of time and I couldn't stop looking back at the phone to see if I was going to make it on time. Finally after the ten billionth beep and getting halfway down to my class.  I relaxed turning into the park across campus. I started to slow down my pace and check the phone.

             There was messages from my mom about the next time we would see each other and I mentally facepalm at my absence from speaking to her. I've been so busy and she is trying so hard to be a mom again. I think back to how far we have come as mother and daughter.  After my dad died my mom was cold and distant to me, I reminded her too much of my dad. We began to fight and argue about everything even if it was insignificant.
      
           The biggest thing we argued over was my choice to pursue becoming an artist as a career instead of a doctor. It did affect us to a point we use to never talk. But after Uncle Marcus stepped in and forced us to talk. We hashed our feelings and we slowly started talking. She has seen how important this is to me and she is making an effort to not act cold. I don't know what we would of done if Uncle Marcus was not around.

        Then photos popped up on my phone. The photos were from both Raven and Octavia from last night. It went back to start of the night to the end and it made me remember what really happened last night. I  can recall I was pretty tipsy, when I almost spilled all my "Kool Aid" over my paper. Luckily Raven saved it in time. I feel myself tense with stress at the thought of actually doing that. If Raven wasn’t there to save it, the paper would of been destroyed.

          Suddenly out of nowhere I collide into something that feels strong and my hands start to roam up when I hear a cough and I look up to see the most beautiful creature that graced this earth. Her forest green eyes looked down at me perplexed and I started to realize she was embracing me and I felt all air leave my body.

She coughed again, “Are you okay?”

I look at her shocked, “Oh my gosh I am so sorry!”

I splutter, “That was really weird and I’m late…And you’re pretty.”

I run away after that, scolding myself. “Stupid pretty girl and stupid gay brain.”

         I shake my head as I enter my class and I hand in my paper. Professor Jaha looking at me with mix of curiosity and disappointment from the slightly damaged paper.

I sit down and sigh, “What a day…”

After class I head to the coffee cart to be greeted by Octavia, “Hey there party girl,” she smirks.

I roll my eyes, “Never again am I drinking with you two.”

She laughs, “Never say never.”

I glare at her silently.

“You got to admit you had fun,” she says.

“Okay, maybe just a little,” I say.

Octavia grins “Knew it!”

“Can you please give me a coffee now, I have a piece of art that requires my attention.” I plea

Octavia nods and starts moving, “Sure thing princess, anything for you.”

Behind me I feel someone staring, so I look to see who it is. But there is no one looking back at me. I turn back around waiting for my coffee, but then I feel it again but this time the presence is right behind me.
I look around and yelp, “You!”

“Grandma is the best though!" Jas inists to the blonde woman.

“She is, she would be very happy to hear that. She loves you very much,” The blonde woman resures her daughter.

Jas giggles,“Aunty Raven and Octavia are funny, they always make me laugh.”

“They tell me secrets about you,” She whispers loudly.

The blonde woman’s eyebrows raises in question, “Oh really?”

Jas nods, “But dont talk about it mommy I am not suppose to tell you.”

The blonde woman chuckles, “Okay I won’t tell them.”

“Pinky promise?” The little girl asks holding out her pinky.

“Pinky promise.” The blonde woman says hooking her pinky to her daughter’s finger.
