Work It Out (Dave East)

Chapter 5

Julian

Tuesday

Counting the money my last client had just given me, I was finally ready to leave for the day.

I saw that it was almost 7 P.M so I figured everybody had left minus Freaky. Grabbing my stuff, I headed to Freaky's office.

"Aye man." I called getting his attention.

"Wassup? You outta here?"

"Yeah but guess what. I got a date."

He looked up at me from the sketch he was drawing, "With that girl you was telling me about earlier?"

"Yeah, I texted her today and asked her out. She replied with a yes and I'm taking her out Friday night" I smirked.

"Alright playa, I need to see what this chick look like."

I bit my lip just picturing her.

"Mannnnn, little mama bad as hell. You'll see her, eventually. Aye, but I'm outta here. I gotta go get Skai from my mom's."

"Ight bro."

I headed out the shop and hopped in the whip.

I'm pretty hype about Rosanna letting me take her out. Something about her had me drawn to her, I wanted to get to know her. I wanted to know her favorites, I wanted to know what makes her mad, and everything.

I'm not gonn lie either, I definitely want to know what's between those thick ass thighs of hers. Licking my lips at the thought, I shook my head because she had me tripping and I barely knew her.

I focused on getting to my mom's house, God knows I hope she cooked cause a nigga hungry as hell.

Rosanna

Wyd beautiful? 8:09 P.M.

I read the text message from Julian. I wasn't about to reply right away because I didn't want to seem too eager.

Earlier today, I decided I would let him take me out so I text him and told him alright. We agreed on Friday night which was three days from now.

I lowkey couldn't wait because as much as I hate to admit it, there was something about him that interested me. I think it was his edgy look, the beard and those all those tattoos had me biting my lip.

I don't think he could be that bad because I mean the guy has a daughter for crying out loud so why not give him a chance?

Cooking. 8:23 P.M.

I sat my phone down on the kitchen counter after replying to his text. I reached to stir the pot of rice when my phone dinged.

Damn ma, you can cook? Whatchu making over there? 8:24 P.M.

I decided to go ahead and text him back, fuck the hesitating.

I can do a little something. But baked chicken, rice and string beans. 8:24 P.M.

After a long day at work, I just wanted to come home enjoying my peace and quiet. I wanted a good meal which is why I'm cooking for myself now.

I get lonely in this place sometimes, it's just me in my 2 bedroom condo.

I thought about getting a dog but then I wouldn't want to leave it alone in here while I'm at work. I really need a man honestly, someone to come home to. I've been single for far too long, not to mention it's been ages since I've gotten laid.

I shook my head at the thought, I picked my phone up to see a new message from Julian.

That's dope. I like a woman that can cook cause Im a man that can eat. Lol! 8:32 P.M.

I laughed, he definitely looked like he could eat a lot. I turned the eyes off on the stove and sat at the island while I waited for my food to cool down.

Opening my Instagram app, I saw where Julian had requested to follow me. I accepted it and followed him. I decided to do a bit of lurking. He had a lot of pictures of him and his daughter on his page and I seriously thought they were the cutest.

Looking at his other pictures, I saw how thirsty bitches were being in his comments. I rolled my eyes, he look too damn good.

I got up to fix my plate, after eating this food my bed would be like heaven to me. I was feeling bold after looking at Julian's Instagram, the man was too fine for me to pass up.

I like a man that can eat. 8:50 P.M.

I bit my lip as I hit send. I continued to eat my food and flip through the tv channels, I swear there was never really anything good to watch on tv.

After finishing my food, I headed upstairs to shower and get in the bed. I was good and full now. After a hot shower, I put on a t shirt and some panties and got into the bed.

As soon as my head hit the pillow my phone began to ring. I reached over to grab my phone off the night stand, I sure as hell was shocked to see Julian calling me. Why the hell was he calling me?

I answered. "Hello?"

"Wassup sweetheart." He greeted me and lord I could've melted! He sounded good as hell, I noticed he had a slight accent when he talked.

"Uh, not much." I was unsure of what to say, I mean he called me.

"What you doing?"

I shrugged as if he could see me, "laying down. What are you doing?"

"I just put Skai to bed. How was your day ma?"

That 'ma' word was gonna be the death of me, it was a slight turn on for me too. "I had a long day."

"Tell me about it."

That sorta made me smile because it sounded like he was really interested in my day.

I went on telling him about my day and he put his input in here and there. We were actually having a real conversation and it was refreshing, most guys didn't care to keep a conversation going. They were often sidetracked by the things they have going on, but he seemed really interested in our phone call. I'm glad I answered the phone.
