Work It Out (Dave East)

Chapter 29

Saturday

It's almost 3 o'clock in the afternoon and I still haven't talked to Rosanna. She's been ignoring my calls and texts since last night. I even went by her house last night but she wouldn't open the door.

It definitely wasn't my intentions to hurt her. I don't even know why Wayno said the ignorant shit that he said.

"Would you like these flowers delivered?" The cashier spoke.

"Yeah."

"To what address?"

"1311 Westchester Lane."

The girl nodded.

I was currently buying Rosanna flowers as a small I'm sorry gesture. I know I have a lot of making up to do but I'm hoping this will be a step in the right direction.

"Okay, so that's 4 dozen tulips delivered to 1311 Westchester Lane. Correct?"

"Yeah."

"Your total is $167.23"

I pulled out my credit card and swiped it.

She printed the receipt and handed it to me.

"Have a good day."

"Thanks."

I headed out the flower shop and got in my car.

I was gonna give them about 2 hours to deliver the flowers to Rosanna before I dropped by her house. In the meantime, I was going to go by my moms house.

After almost 30, I was pulling up in front of my mom's crib.

I got out the car, going up to the door and to my surprise it was locked. I knocked and waited for mom to come open the door.

A few seconds later, I heard the locks turning and the door opened revealing my mother.

"Hey ma." I greeted her.

She stepped aside allowing me to come in.

"Hey Jules."

I noticed it was quiet and I didn't hear the sound of babbling or little feet hitting the floor.

"Skai sleep?"

"Mhm. She just fell asleep about an hour ago."

"I'll go get her."

"Well wait a minute. Sit down and talk to your mama Jules. I feel like we haven't talked in days, you've been so been stuck up that girl's ass." She rolled her eyes.

I rolled my eyes too because I was in no mood for my mother's judgemental and rude comments right now.

I love my mother to death but she could be a bit on the less mature side sometimes.

I took a seat on the couch while she sat on the other couch across from me.

"Why do you look so down? What's wrong?"
