"Hi, my name is Asia and i'll be your waitress for today, what can I get you?" I ask looking down at the family of 3.

I jot down their orders, then walk away to the back of the Restaurant dropping the fake smile I held on my face. My mom had got Indya and I a job at different food places because we needed more money to help pay the bills, buy food, and clothes.

I didn't want to but I guess it gave me something to do on my free time when I got bored and had nothing to do after school.

I gave their orders to the cookers then headed back to the front to take the next customer's orders.

Walking up, I noticed some familiar faces.

"Wassup Asia" Isaiah said.

"Sup Asian" Jahseh said.

"Yo" Antwan said nodding his head.

"Hey guys, what can I get you to drink?" I ask them getting ready to write in the notebook.

"What you been up to? You went m.i.a after you and vro stopped fucking with each other" Isaiah said after they gave me their orders.

"I know. Im sorry" I tell them.

When I stopped talking to Stokeley, I stopped talking to his friends as well. I didn't mean to cut them off, I just haven't been feeling anyone lately.

"Well, you should come to my cook out. Stokeley and I are celebrating for reaching 1 million views on sound cloud" Jahseh said.

"I don't know. When is it? I might be busy working at this shit place" I tell him.

"This weekend" He nods his head.

"I'll think about it" I tell him.

"I know you probably dont wanna see bro, but at least come for me" He says genuinely putting his hand on his chest.

"I'll see, Jahseh" I tell him before walking away.

After clocking out from work I headed outside and waited for my bus to come. Since I worked all the way downtown I had to catch a bus or a cab.

I got home around 7 o'clock at night and when I walked up my mom's car wasn't parked in the driveway of course because she was at work.

I walked inside the house to the smell of food cooking. I put my bag down and walked inside the kitchen to see Indya standing over the stove with a spoon in her hand.

"Wow you're cooking?"

She turned around and grinned at me.

"Well somebody has to do the cooking around here. Besides, I learned a new recipe from my new job" She says turning back to the stove.

"Great, I thought I was gonna have to eat another sandwich for dinner tonight again" I tell her going over to the refrigerator to retrieve a bottle of water.

"You heard from Stokeley yet?" She asks me.

"You ask me that like a million times a day. The answer is still no. I told him I needed time to myself, so basically I pushed him away and now he's gone" I tell her rolling my eyes.

"You know he's back with that one chick again right? Whats her name, Harley?"

"Carly. And yeah I know, she brags about it at school every time I walk past her" I tell her.

"She's a bitch. And he's dead wrong. Good thing you didn't give him your virginity or anything cause then that would suck" She says.

I awkwardly open my water bottle and takes a sip from it. Indya turns around and looks at me, waiting for me to agree with her.

"Right?" She asks me.

I take another sip from my water bottle, causing her to drop the spoon in the pot and look at me with wide eyes.

"ASIA YOU FUCKED HIM??? You did not quit playing"

"Why is that such a shocker?" I ask her.

"Because what the fuck!!! Its your virginity that you were just so cautious about and you're telling me you gave him the cookie and now he's gone?!"

"You're making it seem like he fucked me and left, but really its my fault because I didn't want to be bothered with him because of something that happened between him and Chloe" I explain.

"What happened between him and Chloe? And when did you give him your virginity?"

"I gave him my virginity the night of my birthday. And thats a really long story" I tell her.

After telling her everything she needed to know, we sat down at the table together and ate. I decided that I would take a shower and go to bed early tonight.

Going upstairs I picked out my sleeping clothes that I would be wearing for when I got out.

I walked down the hall and went into the bathroom, closing and locking the door behind me. I went over to the shower and turned the hot water nob, not even bothering to turn the cold water on.

I pulled my hair up into a bun and stripped out of my clothes.

I felt the shower water and made sure it was hot enough before stepping in and letting the beads of hot water hit my body.

Standing under the water, I couldn't keep the thought about Stokeley off my mind.

Not being able to talk to him about anything like I use to bothered me.

I missed a lot of things we used to do. He was the only person who really understood me.

We had a thing that nobody would understand.

It was like we were best friends, but more than that. We were like soul mates we were meant for each other.

But it was all my fault. I was the one who pushed him away. There was nothing more I could do about it. He didn't want me like I wanted him anyways, he just made up excuses like not wanting to ruin our friendship simply because he was just still stuck on Carly.

The thought of him getting back with her, crushed me.

I couldn't help the tears that threatened to roll down my face, fall.

Some things were just too good to be true.

But I had something for him.
