"How was your interview?" Anthony asked as I got in his car

"Good. I got the job" I smiled leaning over console giving him a kiss

"Told you that you aint have Shit to worry about" he grabbed my hand as he pulled off

I had finally got a call back from a job asking for an Interview. I was excited even though I had forgotten where I even applied to but once's I showed up i realized that it was for a law firm. It wasn't anything big since I didn't have the experience.

I would just be helping them file paper work and answer phone calls from time to time. But it's more like an intern job if you ask me.

"You hungry?" He asked

"Starving. I ran out without eating this morning"

It's been three months since everything went down between Dave and I and let's just say they aren't at its best.

Dave was hurt when I told him that I wanted to remain friends but nonetheless he agreed

We haven't really been talking like we usually do and sometimes he doesn't even come home at night. He stays with Sandra. But when he does come home to sleep It feels weird. We still cuddle since we've gotten so used to doing so.I can't sleep when he's not home but I guess I gotta get used to it

It hurt me to tell Dave that but I'm not ready to be with him. It's not because of him but because of me. How can I be the women he deserves when I'm struggling with my demons? When I'm so insecure that I can't stand sometimes to even look at myself in the mirror? He deserves better than me so I let him go. Even through it pained me to do so. I had to let him find happiness. I rather hurt and see him happy with someone else than to keep him and have him be miserable.

That night when he asked why I couldn't even tell him. I jus locked myself in the bathroom crying in the shower.

On the other hand Jerome was arrested for what I have no idea but I was happy. I was finally getting some type of Normalcy back in my life

"You good?" Anthony asked breaking me out of my thoughts

I was so caught up in them that I didn't even realize we were at the restaurant

A little over a month ago I decided to go ahead and start dating again I wish it would be Dave who I gave this chance to but he was happy with Sandra so I had to accept the fact that I lost my chance.

Anthony's a great guy always looking out for me. He's 24 and in college but he also has his hustle on the side as a drug dealer. He has a 4 year old daughter who just melts my heart every time I'm around her.
