Jayda

The last 4 months has passed to quickly. I finally gathered enough courage to send in my application for Juliard . One thing I didn't think about was the distance. If I did get accepted I would have to leave for New York far from Lamario and Renae. Renae would be okay but what about Lamario. I had him to thank for everything because if he wouldn't have helped me at the store that day I would be just another girl trying to make something happen that she knew she was standing in the way of. Jamie is back in our lives and he is happy. I'd been thinking about getting Jamie and I a huge luxurious apartment but now that I don't know if I'm moving to New York or not I don't know. A few weeks ago I finally quit my job. I've felt so free and alive every since. I was a part time waitress for now while Jamie was at school and Lamario was back in the gym. My 21st birthday was in 3 days and I didn't know what I wanted to do at all. I unlocked the door to Lamario's apartment . Oh yeah I have a set of keys to his apartment which made me feel special. I'd just gotten off work and I was now waiting for Jamie to get out of school so I could go and get him. I changed into some grey joggers and a white fitted crop top. I put on my white puma slides and sat in Lamario room until it was time for me to leave. Jamie and I spent most of our time here so we practically lived with Lamario.

"Aye bring it in guys" Al my coach said walking into the locker rooms where we were getting ready to go home. I've never fully explained to y'all what we do so let me tell y'all about it. Al use to be a college NBA coach and one of the best Caucasian ones. What he does his teach black young men the rules and regulations of becoming a NBA player. He has connections and he told us we would be training for it in an open gym until he felt we were ready. Only 2 of us would make it though and I was determined. We barely saw him because he barely even came. "I have 2 letters from the One of my good friends in the NBA now in these letters he has invited the 2 he wants to join him in New York for a meeting" Al explained holding up the letters. "What you waiting for old man who the letters go too" Kendrick said making a few other teammates laugh. "Alright ,Alright one for you Kendrick and one for you Lamario" he said smiling and handing me my note. "Congratulations you too" He said as everyone irrepressible in cheers. I couldn't believe what the fuck I was hearing. I'd been playing this shit for 3 years and it finally payed off! Years of not being picked it made me work harder . My team mates surrounded Kendrick and I. "Bro we got to celebrate" bastion one of my team mates chuckled. "Aye I-I'm gone fuck with y'all later" I said grabbing my duffel bag . I ain't want to celebrate with nobody but my family . I sped home carefully . I couldn't say I wasn't disappointed that Kendrick got the letter and not Reggie because I couldn't share no damn airplane with him let alone a hotel , but I understood why he got the letter because before he did that shit to me he was my brother . His mama died within the time he started playing so he do it for his mama name and I respect that . All respect for that nigga is gone though. I would never have did that shit to him and he lucky I ain't beat his ass , but if he ever tried that shit with Jayda I'd kill that nigga. Jayda was special bro I know she is . Her big brown eyes that stare right through me. The way she feels Mane I ain't never felt no woman like that. The level of maturity man. The way she smile . The way she look at me when I make her mad but she trying to hold her smile back. I got out my car running into my apartment building . I unlocked my door quickly with the biggest smile on my face. I went inside closing the door looking for Jayda she said she would be here when I texted her during practice. I walked into my room to see her lying down watching a movie. "Look" I said sitting on the side of her showing her the letter. "Baby What's this?" She asked taking it out my hand. "That's my NBA letter!" I cheerfully said. I sounded like a big ass kid who just got 20 dollars from their uncle. "Is this " she said sitting up looking down at the letter as if it was un believable. "Baby this is huge I'm so proud of you" she smiled giving me a hug. I chuckled this was crazy . She got up jumping in the bed. "Wait we got to celebrate tonight right ? Right" she asked sitting back on the bed. "Yea the team wanted to go out tonight anyways" I said . "Have you opened it ? Did you tell your grandma? I know she'd be proud what about your mama did you tell her?" She asked all at once. "Bae chill you happier than me" i said . "I wanna open it with my grandma and mama. They the ones who need proof to really believe" I laughed. "Ok I have to go pick up Jamie We can go over your grandma's together" she said going to the body mirror and putting her hair in a ponytail. I bit my lip watching her ass. "Alright let's go before we be late picking him up" I said . "We going in my car" I said opening the front door for her short ass. She walked in front of me through the lobby . She began speaking to certain people from the lobby. We finally made it out and I opened the door for her....
