"Chink please get that." Sin grumbled in my ear.
I heard the phone ringing but I didn't want to answer it. "Let it ring."
We both began falling back asleep until the phone started back up. "Fuck." I reached over and grabbed my phone. "Hello?"
"What are you doing?" Chris asked.
"I'm fucking sleeping Chris. Why are you calling me this early in the morning?"
"It is definitely three in the afternoon." He informed me. "Were you sleeping?"
"I was but thanks to you I am awake. The one day that I get to sleep in, I can't get that because you called. It's hard to come by especially when you have a daughter who never lets you sleep past the rising of the sun."
"My bad and I apologize for last night."
I placed the pillow that I was laying on over my face to block the daylight. "No, I was wrong for snapping on you that way and I am sorry. You know I hate to have someone close to me make me talk about my feelings and all."
"Hmm. Well I will be down there in a couple of weeks. I need to check on you and see my niece because it's been awhile."
"Alright. Bye Chris, we will talk about that later." I rushed him off the phone. "Love you!"
Removing the pillow from over my face I saw Sin staring at me. "What?" I smiled.
"Nothing."
I stood and stretched before walking towards my bathroom. "There's extra toothbrushes and shit in my hall closet. Use the bathroom in Juju's room. I left him to handle his business as I handled my own.
"Aye Chink?" Sin called out.
"Yes?"
"Do you have plans tonight?"
"Not really unless Juju is read y to come hom."
He nodded his head. "Well I want you to come with me to my peoples little party. It's a skating party and I just want you to get out of the house and enjoy yourself."
"Like a date?" I wanted to make sure before I agreed on going somewhere.
"Nah, I didn't want to make it seem like that but if it's too much then I'm sorry for even asking."
"Sin, it's okay. Let me check with my cousin about my daughter."
"Sounds good, I'll head out of here and come scoop you around seven o'clock."
"Okay that's fine." I walked him to the door and as soon as I locked it, I dialed Chris.
----
"Chris we need to talk." I said as soon as he had answered.
The line went silent. "By the sound of your voice, it seems as if this is going to be juicy. Please hold while I go and pop me some popcorn."
"I don't have time for jokes right now Chris." I said after a moment.
"Hold on! My popcorn is almost ready!"
This man was so extra, I swear I wanted to wring his neck at times. "Chris come on now before I hang up."
"What happened?"
"So there's this guy and-"
"Excuse me? You been strolling through lover's lane and didn't let me know?"
"If you would let me talk then you would know."
"Go ahead."
"So," I continued. "I buy bud and edibles off him and something blossomed from that. And by something I mean sex. We honestly never chill outside of the bedroom nor do we ever hang outside of smoking." I paused to let it marinate in his head.
