Cassidy is in love with two men and she eventually has to choose between them both. Who will she choose? Will he be her biggest regret or her best choice?
Standing in front of the pastor, I held hands with the man I once loved. He smiled at me-a smile I used to die for- with his pearly whites and gold grill. I gave him a tight lipped smile back, wondering why was I here and why was I doing this to myself? Why was I ready to commit and spend the rest of my life with someone like this? Was I stupid? Or is it called desperate? A tight squeeze to my hand brought me back to reality and I looked up at him, a confused look on his face.
"Cassidy? Is everything okay?" The pastor asked, making everyone look at me. I nodded.
"Yes, just nervous." I lied, making everyone laugh a little.
The truth is I was terrified. I knew nothing about commitment and I knew that I shouldn't have went along with this. As I stood there, many thoughts ran through my mind and I felt my heart beating fast. My breathing sped up and before I knew it, all I seen was black.
3 Years Earlier
I laid in bed staring at the ceiling debating on if I should get up or not.
"Cassidy?! I don't hear no damn moving, get yo ass up!" My mama yelled from downstairs.
I rolled my eyes and snatched around a lil bit before getting up. Grabbing my phone, I had three text messages from my bestfriend, Dre.
You better be ready dawg, ion got time to be waiting on you
Cass? Is yo ass even awake?
You know what, I'm going without you.
I quickly facetimed him.
"Nah don't try and call me now kid, I'm already close by the school." He said as soon as he answered. I poked out my lip at him.
"I'm sorry please come back. You know if I ask her she gon' make me ride that dirty ass bus." I begged lowly, knowing my Mama had ears like a hawk.
"I don't care about none of that shit, go get yo ass on that bus!" Dre teased making me more angry. How was I bestfriends with this dumb ass?
"You a nerd anyway. School don't start for another 30 minutes. You a whole bitch." I hung up the phone and frowned before starting to get ready.
I didn't hate school but I mean who the fuck likes it?
After my shower, I flat ironed my weave and then placed a bandana over it. Bandanas were prohibited at school but I really didn't give a shit. I proceeded to beat my face and get dressed, wearing some tights and a graphic crop top to show off my belly ring. I slid on my all white high top converse then grabbed my backpack along with my phone before leaving my room.

Walking into the kitchen, I overheard my Mama talking to someone. It was Dre dumb ass, I knew he was coming to get me.
