"There's a quiet storm
That is you
There's a quiet storm
And it never felt this hot before
Giving me something that's taboo
Sometimes I think you're just too good for me"
The Sweetest Taboo - Sade
Janae
"So... What does David like ? What is he into ?"
Janae asked Dave as they drove to take Janae home. Kaiya had fallen asleep after being fed.
"First thing first, call me Dave, David is my father... But uh I like a lot of things, use to play ball. That was my life at one point." He spoke softly.
"But as of lately, music" he looked over at an intrigued Janae.
"Music ? You play an instrument ?" Janae sort of laughed, embarrassed to ask.
"Nahhh, wish I had that type of talent....but uhm I rap"
Janae eyebrows rose up like she was impressed.
"That's cool" she smiled.
"Yeah it's a little something I do on the side, take my mind off shit you know?"
"Yeah ..."
"So earlier you said you don't do pork, any particular reason as to why?"
"Yeah, I'm Muslim" Dave said and looked over at Janae then back to the road.
"Oh, okay. Have you always been Muslim ?"
"Nahh, I converted a couple years ago but that's a story for another time"
"Must of been hard transitioning" Janae continued
"Hell yeah, a lot of things you are no longer able to do... but I do my own thing within limitations."
"Well I know tattoos are out of the question but you're a special case" Janae smiled again.
"Yeah something like that" Dave laughed.
"At least you found something"
"More like it found me"
"So, how old are you?"
Dave laughed a little and looked over at Janae real quick before focusing back to the road.
"I'm 28 sweetheart" he chuckled.
"You're old" Janae joked.
"Oh wow" Dave laughed.
"Just had to remind you" Janae laughed.
"So real talk, how come your family kept you under wraps?"
Janae laughed at how he put it.
"I wasn't kept under wraps, I just don't live in Harlem. Plus, I'm the youngest"
"But everyone seems to know about you"
"That's probably because of my grandmother" Janae shook her head.
"Mama Gee right?"
"Yeah.."
"So explain your homegirl today" Dave asked referring to Nicole.
"What do you mean?"
"Don't act stupid ma, your little friend Janae"
Janae smirked, holding in her laughter.
"She was being a true friend"
"Ya thought that was funny?"
"What I want to know is who told you where I work?"
