Another Urban Tale

Friend or Foe

The next morning there was Krispy Kreme donuts by my face and coffee. I sat up and tried to see threw my swollen eyes from crying the night before. Something dropped across the room and Gabby was standing there looking at me like she was about to cry.

"What the fuck happen to your neck ?" she asked getting angry.

" Is that why you were crying last night. I know it wasn't a female by the way you whooped Bianca ass last night . So what nigga did this to you . Please don't tell me you one of those weak bitches because if you are I can't fuck with you" she yelled shaking me. I just looked down and touched my neck forgetting all about it. All day yesterday it was covered with make-up and I kicked myself before I explained what happened the day before. She was really acting concerned and I barely knew the chick. Before she could respond Brittney came in and jumped on the bed smiling.

" What's up ladies" she said giggling. She kept giggling and breathing heavy trying to get our attention. I started smirking and looked at her.

" I know you want to tell us about your night so spill it" I said trying to forget about my previous conversation. She jumped up and sat on the floor in front of us and smiled really wide.

" Well last night he took me to the beach and then we went back to his house and talked all night. He was so sweet and so gentle. "

She said looking at us. Gabby and I looked at each other then busted out laughing. She frowned at us looking like we were crazy.

" What's so funny? " she said getting mad.

" He a lame just like you " I said walking to the bathroom relieving myself and washing my hands. When I got back to the room Brittney was beating Gabby with a pillow. They were laughing so I just sat on the bed and began eating the donuts next to me.

" So did you guys really just sit and talk all night?" I asked in between bites. She began to smile.

" Yes bro that's it. He wasn't like any guy that I meet before and i could see myself being with him. Who knows where this thing can go."

I tilted my head and frowned. " What the fuck are you going to do? Bring him to Texas with you? You not staying here so that's your only choice, plus your a hoe he won't last long" I said joking.

She looked at me and seemed really upset. I really didn't see what the big deal was when they just meet yesterday. He wasn't even all that to be stressing over. We all got quiet and just sat in our thoughts for a few moments. Brittney got up and sat next to me wrapping her arm around me.

" Your just jealous aren't you? But its okay best friend because one day you will have your first boyfriend and man of your dreams." she said with a smile taunting me.

Gabby looked at me in confusion with her eyebrows scrunched together. " You never had a boyfriend and your 22" she asked completely shocked.

I shook my head and got embarrassed. When I was younger all I ever did was try to please my father. Nothing and no one was good enough for me unless he said so. The older I got I just got lonely and wanted more but I never did or said anything about how I felt.

"Well lets go find you a man bitch" Gabby said suddenly. I looked at her and laughed at her. She couldn't be serious right now? Ignoring them talk about my nonexistent love life like I wasn't even in the room. I went to shower and got ready for the day. I had on distressed blue jean shorts,a black shirt with red writing, and black sandal heels. Gabby borrowed a white maxi dress and sandals from Brittney who wore a plain black shirt, white shorts, and black sandals with rhinestones. Gabby looked over at my feet and laughed.
