The Grass Isn't Greener On The Other Side

Chapter Four

*His phone goes to voicemail*

I didn't leave a message I just went through the drive through of Taco Bell got me two soft taco's. Went back to work as my phone started to ring however I couldn't answer it because I was dealing with a customer. Once I was done checked my phone to see who it was and it was Titus. Shot him a quick text Sorry at work will call you when I get off at 6 pm.

His reply, ok I might be busy at that time but if I'm not I should be able to answer.

I replied, Okay that's fine if not just call me back I will be at my friends house.

His response, Cool

As the rest of the work day went I was eagerly waiting to call him and as expected he didn't answer the phone. For the next couple of days we played phone tag and it got annoying as when we were younger we talked on the phone all the time without life mishaps.

We finally were able to have a phone conversation we talked for awhile and after talking for awhile my feelings for him were finally said. I love him and prayed for him all the time and truly believed the rest of my life could be spent with him.

He asked me if I was coming to California in October after seeing him in July and I told him yes and that he should show me and my God sisters around. He was like yeah most definitely it'll be nice when you all get here.

October finally arrived and we were all packed up in the car ready for the drive to California. We laughed and talked saw the scenery learned there was a place called Weed, California crazy funny we took a picture of the sign too.

We arrived at the hotel it was pretty average. It had a miniature kitchen soon as you walk in the door the bathroom was on the right and the twin beds once you walk through the kitchen. I have a phobia of hotel sheets so I always check the sheets and the room before bringing my luggage in. Checking the room for bed bugs once the room was checked the girls were allowed to enter with the luggage.

Let me introduce you to my God sisters. You already know Tanielle who is 21 she was with me when I first met Titus. The other two their names are Dessa 15 and Edrea 16.

Dessa and Edrea pick the bed closest to the window and Tanielle and I have the bed closest to the kitchen and the bathroom which is fine Tanielle is a diabetic so she tends to use the restroom a lot.

Dessa says, "I'm Hungry".
Edrea, "Aren't you always hungry?"

"Girls we were just on a 13 hour drive and we all are hungry let's walk over to the restaurant that's across the street and get something to eat we will be at this conference first thing in the morning so let's eat and get some sleep." I say to keep these two from arguing they are best friends but they are the definition of petty to the gods.

So we all freshen up and change clothes and proceed to walk across the street to the restaurant. We walk in and are greeted by a lovely host named Bethany. She leads us to a table for four and asks us what we would like to drink. Dessa asks for a lemonade, Edrea wanted a coke, Tanielle orders a diet coke, as for me I asked for strawberry lemonade.

The waitress walks away we proceed to look over the menu with all of us finally making a decision our waitress comes back with our drinks and we order. We have a little bit of small talk mostly about Titus and how excited we were to be at this conference put together to inspire young adults give advice on school, peer pressure, life, businesses, and just many different avenues you can take for your career.

We get back to the hotel and little did I know the next day my world will be turned upside down.
