It took us no time to make it to Baltimore. We was on a mission and we only stopped for gas and to use the bathroom. We made it home at 12:30pm. I dropped Faun off first. Stopped in her house spoke to her mom and we talked for a minute than me and Toya left. I dropped Toya off up Edmondson Village and made my way to my grandparents house. I used my key to let myself in and Mama was cooking. I kissed her on the cheek. Heyyyy Mama... Heyy Nicole how was the ride? It was okay, just long as usual. Where Pop? Hack club. Oh okay.. What you cooking? I knew you would be hungry so I made fried chicken, homemade macaroni and cheese, string beans and potato salad. Yes I was hoping you was reading my mind and you was. I sat down Mama made me a plate and we started talking. I told her about the new place, school, and work. Than I threw in the fact I am interested in someone. I could always talk to both my grandmothers about everything and they never sugar coated nothing. But when Katie died I only had Mama and that put our relationship level extra higher. Anyways I told her everything but left out I was shaking my ass at Magic City. Hell no I wasn't telling her that. She would have started throwing holy water and praying over me. After I was done I sat back and waited for her input. So you like him or you like the attention he gives you? No Mama I like him, it's like everything about him is different. It maybe because he is older. Yeah they say older men knows what they want and how to treat you my grandma said. I mean Ma he fun, we talk, we don't argue if so we never stay mad and we never walk away from each other mad neither. We became friends first. But as time goes on we spending time together. I mean since we started talking on the phone we been together nonstop. I love his company, it's like I work, go to school and look forward to hanging with him because I know he always have something up his sleeve for us. You really like him my grandma said? I really do Ma. What you scared of? Getting hurt and getting my heart broke again. Well Nicole you have to take chances sometime in life. This can be a blessing and this could be a lesson learned. You young stop being scared to go out and find love. We win some and we lose some but we still get back up and keep going. You understand me? Yes I do. We only live once, give him a try and don't basic his life and stuff off of what Lawrence did to you. How you know that's what I was thinking? I am your grandma been that lady for 19 years. I can feel when you happy or sad and right now talking and looking at you I see happy and I feel it. I am. Well their is your answer.
I finish eating and was texting my auntie, Bff and family letting them know I am home and at my grandparents house. I called my mother talked to her for about an hour than went upstairs and got into my grandparents bed and let sleep take over me. I woke up to my phone ringing I saw it was Damien.
