Wrong Love ➸ Norminah {Book 2}

4

"Dinah, where are you?" Lauren cooed. I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth so I texted her. And then she yelled "Hurry your ass up!" I chucked and finished up.

"Where are we going?" I went downstairs and she smiled. "We're going out. And we're gonna act like white girls." Camila comes downstairs and she quietly says hi. She had lost her voice last night because she was performing in a coffee shop called Peeps down the road. I grabbed my keys and we headed out the door.

"I'll tell you what turns to take." Lauren said and I said okay.

"Next on 'big hit radio station' is Real Friends by Camila!" We both looked at Mila and she looked confused. "I literally performed it last night for the first time oh my god. But I doubt it'll go far."

"Don't think that Camz. Your voice is amazing." I gagged at the lovey dovey shit that was happening. They laughed and I kept driving.

"Where am I stopping?" I asked. Lauren pointed to the lights on the beach. My eyes sparkled. I loved that kind of thing. But... who's behind all of it, I asked myself.

Mani?

No.

It's not.

"We scared you didn't we?" Lauren laughed. I glared at her. "We're having a picnic, relax Cheechee." Mila said. I smiled and shook my head. "You guys are terrible."

We got out of my car and they grabbed the food and blankets. I walked over there but taking my shoes off when I stepped on the sand, taking in the ocean breeze. I sat down, in my white see-through-kinda dress and relaxed. I felt at peace with myself.

"Ally will be here soon." I heard Lauren say. I smiled. Everything is perfect. I am at peace.

Ally came walking over about 30 minutes later. "Dinah, I texted you. Why didn't you answer?" That was the realization that I didn't have my phone. "I think I left it in the car. I'll be back." I got up and walked over to the car and saw my phone in the drink holder. I unlocked my car and grabbed it, running back over to the spot they were at. I sat down and started looking through my phone and saw a message.

text received from blocked number

blocked: I miss you. Please forgive me.

I immediately put my phone down and laid down to look at the stars. "What's wrong D?" I shook my head. "Nothing, it's fine. I shouldn't have reacted to something small." They all looked at each other but let it go.

I tried to stare off until my emotions ate at me completely. But surprisingly, I didn't feel anything. I still felt peace. There was no need for me to be so sad anymore. Nothing was here to ruin the happiness I could have.

text received from blocked number

blocked: please? give me another chance. i won't leave this time.

I got angry and turned off my phone. "I hate women." I said and everyone looked at me. "What?" They laughed. "We all know you could never like a guy." I shrugged but nodded cause I knew they were right. I sighed and got up. "Let's go home. This was fun but I wanna be in my bed." They nodded and we went home. I
turned my phone back on so we had music for the ride home. I let Lauren choose the songs.

text received from blocked number

blocked: why are you ignoring me?

"Dinah, who's the blocked number?" I sighed and took my phone from her, choosing a song. "Don't worry about it." She shrugged and started rocking out. Camila fell asleep. I yawned a bit but we got home soon enough for me to stay awake.

I immediately went to my bedroom when we got home. I loved my bed and my dog more than anything. "Hey Jacko." I smiled and he jumped up into me. I changed into sweats and a t-shirt and got in my bed, having Jack come cuddle me.

new voicemail

"Hey Dinah, it's Normani. I just need to talk to you about something. And please unblock my number. Please return my texts about when you want to talk. Thank you, and take care."

I groaned. "Right as I'm fucking okay, right? ALWAYS." I said loudly and Camila came into my room. "Are you okay?" I nodded. "I'm sorry Mila, go back to bed." She shook her head. I raised my eyebrow at her. "Something has been bothering you all night." I shrugged and she gave me the mom look. I sighed and explained how Normani has been trying to get contact of me again. She looked sad after.

"I'll be okay Chancho." I said.

"You're going to be okay CheeChee." We hugged and she went back to bed.

"I love you." We both said and went to bed.

I opened my phone.

"Blocked number, unblocked."

I dialed her number.

"Hey Normani..."
