New York City, New York
Kris
"So, have you talked to Kay since y'all ran into each other?" My mom asks me over the phone.
I'm currently back in my hotel room just chatting with my mama about random stuff, but something told me that she'd of course bring up the only girl she's ever liked before that I've dated-- Kastynn.
The moment I saw her sexy ass in the store, I haven't been able to quit thinking about the things I'ma do to her body once she comes. She texted me an hour ago for the address to the hotel, which is what I found to be quite BS if she knows exactly where it is. She even knew the city it was in, but maybe... I don't know.
Seeing Kay for the first time in person in two years just made my fucking heart melt. She's a complete goddess, and that baby put some good weight on her. Her face is fuller and more beautiful. That glow to her just makes everything stand out, and seeing her so happy made me a bit jealous that I haven't been apart of that in a long time.
"Yeah. She texted for the address to the hotel an hour ago and I gave it to her. She said that ole boy gotta work late tonight and Kiki agreed to keep the baby, so she'll come by around at like ten some'n." I tell my mama.
"Oh! I am so happy to hear that you two are finally going to talk things out for once. You gonna get her something right?"
As much as I want to set the mood for tonight, and as well as get her the most amazing gift I can give her, I know she won't accept it due to her current situation. She wouldn't be happy because she'd see right through to what I want-- and that is to woo the woman I know I wanna spend the rest of my life with.
Even though she's just twenty and I'm twenty-three, this woman is definitely someone that God placed on this earth just for me. Everything tends to happen for a reason at the hands of the good Lord, and me coming here is nothing short of a common plan I know he's put out to happen.
I'm mostly here for us to talk and sort things out on what happened between the both of us, and on why I was such asshole towards her. As of tonight, I have to do things right and make sure that she stays long enough to hear me out.
"I know Kay, she won't accept none of the stuff if I do it. She'll walk right on out as if she had never even left the house to come here. Tonight is my one chance in getting the woman of my dreams back on my side, and back in my arms. She's gone make me work for it, and I'm willing to do anything for her just to have that spot filled back in her heart. I can't mess up tonight... I wouldn't even be able to live after this if I were to fuck it up. So buying anything and setting the mood for tonight? I'm not gonna do..."
A long pause exhaled deeply from both ends of the conversation. My mom needs to understand that some things you need to put a cap on if there's anything that you want. You can't keep doing the same bullshit and making the same mistakes each time thinking that that's the common answer in getting what you want. Sometimes it does take for someone to make a constant mistake just for them to realize that doing extra shit can mess everything up, even if you were trying to fix it.
I would love to plaster the room with roses and strawberries, and draw her a nice hot bath with petals in the tub-- you know, the cliché shit. But, I'm not gonna do that because she's not going to accept it. She'll see I'm going overboard just so I can be back in her good graces, and it'll push her further away rather than bring her closer to me.
Which is why tonight, we're sitting down and airing it all out.
"So, Mr. Toliver is gonna keep it simple and sweet?"
