It was Friday night, I️ was spending it how I️ usually spend it watching movies and eating snacks with Aiden. We didn't know very many people here in Milwaukee so we stayed home most of time. Make money, spend money, go home.

I️ looked down at the other end of the sofa to see Aiden asleep with a Cheetos puff in each of his hands. I️ shook my head laughing as I️ grabbed his wipes off of the glass coffee table. I began cleaning his face and hands. "I️ love you so much chunky man." I️ whispered as I️ placed small kisses his chubby Cheeto stained cheeks. After cleaning Aiden up and changing his diaper I️ placed him in his crib in his bedroom, turning on the baby monitor. I️ began cleaning up the mess Aiden made in the living room, my phone lit up indicating I️ had a notification. Gio Million sent you a friend request. The Facebook notification read. Not bothering to see who the person was I placed my cellphone back down continuing to clean up. I was exhausted from work, it's not easy being a certified nursing assistant. It's physically and mentally draining but I wouldn't trade my job for anything in the world, I need this job title to began my career as a registered nurse.

Once I️ was finished straightening up the house, I made sure the door was locked. I️ grabbed my cellphone, turning the lights off I made my way down the hall to my room. I sat in bed scrolling through Gio Million's photos, after lurking a bit I️ figured I'd accept his friend request, he seemed harmless and was very attractive.

"What's up beautiful?" A messenger notification came through not even 5 minutes after I️ accepted the friend request.

"Oh you're stalking me now?" I️ jokingly asked, Gio was the handsome stranger from the gas station earlier this week.

"I️ wouldn't say stalking "Raine"." He replied putting the false name I gave him in quotations.

"Well what do you call it?" I️ questioned making myself comfortable in the bed. Seems like stalking to me. I had well over 3,000 friends and so did he but we only had 4 friends in mutual and I've never met them before.

"Going after what I️ want.." He wrote back getting straight to the point.

"Interesting." I blandly replied, I thought he would make a cool male friend but I feel like he's the type that just wants to have sexual relations and that's it. I don't want that!

"You must not be familiar with who I️ am😂." I rolled my eyes before replying to the message.

"I'm not I'm kind of new here. Who are you?" I️ questioned seriously.

"Where you from? My name Giovanni but I go by Gio, 24, entrepreneur." I raised my eyebrow. I pondered trying to figure what he did as an entrepreneur, he was well dressed, had lots of nice jewelry, and a nice BMW truck from what I've seen in person and on his Facebook page. I didn't see any business promoting on his page, maybe he doesn't promote on his personal page I thought to myself.

"Chicago. My name is Raelynn or Rae not Raine, 22, CNA as of right now." I️ replied, I️ figured I don't have any friends in town I️ should play it nice and meet some new people.

"Nice to meet you beautiful, can I️ ask if you have a boyfriend?" Kind of late to be asking that I thought to myself.

"Nice to me you too, I️ currently do not. If I️ did I would not be communicating with you right now. Do you have a girlfriend? Crazy ex or baby mother? I️ need to be concerned about?" Last thing I️ need is somebody's crazy baby mother or ex coming at me crazy.

"No, no, and no😂" When lurking I took note that he didn't have a woman or any children posted on his page. Just cars, jewelry, and money.
