Walking around the mall Anaya and Cali looked at all the different stores debating on which store they wanted to shop in first.

It had been a minute since the two have chilled together since Cali is usually working or with her son and Anaya is usually with Marcus or creating designs for clothes.

"But yeah anyways girl we spent the rest of the day together just talking and making love .. he's really something special." Anaya spoke up about the time her and Marcus spent together.

"Really happy for you sis,"

"Thanks, did Ahmad ever text you?"

"Why would he have texted me when he doesn't have my number?" Cali asked glaring at her friend.

"Um well .. I saw him that day I went to see Marcus and he asked about you .. so I gave him your number."

"Why would you do that? What did he say?"

"He just asked how you been, and I did it because yo grouchy ass needs dick. After y'all fucked you were nicer now you back mean."

"Oh shut up,  you know I wanted that night to just be something to just look back on, I hope he doesn't text me." She sighed.

Cali really did not want to face Ahmad after what they did. Like it was said before the night they shared was magical and down right freaky.

She brought out a side only Reggie had got to see and let all her morals fly out the window that night.

Her fear was seeing him and he judged her assuming she got down like that all the time so she wanted to just walk away from that whole situation.

"Why you frontin' on that man Cal? You know you wouldn't mind sharing another night with him especially after you said how good he put it down,"

Rolling her eyes she walked into Victoria Secret, "I'm scared to face him cause sis listen .. that night I brought out my freaky side, I went all out .. its gonna be embarrassing seeing him again."

"I honestly don't think he looks at you like that sis, but anyways if he hits you up you better reply."

"I'm not, anyways can we just focus on the task at hand which is buying bras and underwear."

"Fine, how's my baby Marquette? I know he misses his favorite auntie."

Cali laughed. "Alisha took your spot, she stops by every other day to see him and takes him to get ice cream and stuff."

"Of course she can do that cause she doesn't have a nigga like I do .. my time is divided between work, you guys and my man."

"And your man has been getting all the time, Alisha told me you called out of work for three days just to be with Mr. Marcus."

Anaya blushed. "I was only with him for two out of the three days, the last day I had to rest cause he wore my black ass out."

"You guys are a hot mess,"

"We really is but some how our hot mess asses go together perfectly.." She smiled.
