Chapter Three

1… 4… <3…/ Meeting The Smith’s

“Hello?” I woke up to answer the phone from a grizzly slumber.

“Hey, Beautiful did I wake you?” I recognized the voice on the other end.

“Not really, what’s up Papa?” I wrestled myself to sit straight up in the bed.

“Why you lie for? You know you was sleep!” he smirked that made me happy I woke up to talk to him.

“Well now I’m up don’t give me a hard time ok sir?”

“Oh feisty! I just wanted to hear your voice,” he replied making me blush.

“Aww, you making me feel feelings Papa?”

“Good! So I got a question before I let you get your beauty rest.”

“Ard,” I giggle, “What’s the question?”

“Keshia said that we doing this Prom special with a school in LA and that we need to get dates for the prom. We performing that I know of and I was wondering if you’d be my date?”

“Are you serious? Prom?” I laughed.

“Yeah?”

  I was silent for a minute just blushing thinking of going to the Prom at 28. “Hello?” Ray Ray questioned my brief silence. “I’m here?” I smiled uncontrollably.

“What you doing woman?”

“Nothing. Just smiling.”

"Why?” he giggled at the thought of me smiling.

“When is the prom?” I went around answering his question.

“May 30th…”

“May 30th? That next month?”

“Yeah, I know it’s short notice,” he replied seeming to think I was going to decline the offer.

“Why you sound so down?”

“You can’t go can you?”

“I wouldn’t miss it for nothing in the world.”

“For real? You gonna go?”

“Yes, sir. It’s not like I get asked to go to prom everyday silly.”

“Cool,” he smirks in excitement, “Keshia want our dates to wear white dresses.”

“Ok, I’ll get right on it.”

“Aight. Goodnight.”

“Goodnight to you to.”

  Picture that? My old ass going to the fourth prom in my life, I was head high in projects and work surrounding the 2012 Summer line. It was April, well in Prom Season and the second section of the Spring collection is in progress for retailers.

  Ten o’clock came fast and I was up at eight to look my best for my meeting with the buyer of Neiman’s, who were interested in pieces from the trunk show I had days ago. The rest of the day after the meeting I spent in to office looking over designs for the 2012-2013 Christmas collection in the works. Yet, I couldn’t keep my mind out the clouds daydreaming like a school girl thinking about prom and everything that would come with it. I had to worry about the image of me being older then Ray Ray. Since he is a part of a boy band, he’s technically still viewed as a kid I some ways. I am clearly a grown woman with a grown lifestyle. I had a great time with him in Philadelphia. He was great company. He’s entertaining.
