Skylar | Back Room

Once the shoot was over Jayda locked Danielle and I in the back room to talk. We've been in here for at least 20 minutes and neither of us has said a word to each other.

Jayda: If I dont hear talking in the next 30 seconds Im keying up cars.

Next thing I knew Danielle and I were talking over each other.

Jayda: Wow. Okay then.

Danielle: Im sorry.

Me: For what? Loving your ex? For going out with her behind my back? For ignoring me?

She looked down and played with her nails.

Danielle: Yeah.

Me: Its whatever. I'm over it.

Danielle: What about me?

Me: What about you?

Danielle: Are you over me?

I didn't answer cause I wasn't over her.

Danielle: Skylar Im sorry. I shouldn't have done that. It was wrong and Im not gonna do it again. Please forgive me.

After looking at her for a bit I sighed.

Me: Its okay but I don't wanna be with you right now. I dont wanna be in a relationship.

Even though she broke my heart, I just broke it more.

Danielle: What?

Me: Yeah. Sorry. I just need a lil time to myself.

Danielle: Okay then. Jayda let me out. We talked and I'm ready to leave!

Jayda opened the door and Danielle walked out.

Jayden: I take it the talk didnt go well?

Me: It did but uh I said I didn't feel like being in a relationship right now.

Jayda: What? Why not?

Me: I just wanna do my own thing for a while.

Jayden: Well aight. I feel you.

Me: Im leaving. Lock up when yall finished.

Jayda: Okay.

After hugging and clapping Jayda and Jayden, I walked back out to my car.I got in and texted Myra that I was on my way.

Myra was somebody I knew for about a year. She was 18 and bright. We weren't together but she had a crush on me. Now that Danielle and I are done with , well for at least right now , I may just give Myra shot. I wonder if she'll go out with any of her ex's. Especially her first love.

Eventually I pulled up infront of her parents crib where she was in the process of moving out of. I blew the horn and she came running out about 30 seconds later. She got in and buckled up.

Myra: Hey.

Me: Wassup.

Myra: So where are we going?

Me: I just wanted to go to the park. The one downtown.

Myra: Okay cool.

I started the engine again and pulled off.

Myra: So why do you seem a little moody.

Me: Its a long story.

Myra: And I have time.

I sighed knowing she was right. I began pouring everything out to her. Leaving out little things she didnt need to know.

Myra: No way.
