Tonight is Troy's party and I'm beyond excited. I haven't been to a party in forever and I'm ready to meet some guys. I need a man in my life. I'm the only person out of all my friends that's single except Frankie. But Frankie is always talking to a new guy everyday so she doesn't count. I threw on my yellow sweatshirt and my blue jeans before sliding my feet into a pair of socks. I exited my room and made my way to the kitchen where my father was seated.
"Good morning, father." I kissed his cheek.
"Good morning, beautiful." He smiled.
"How was your sleep?" I asked innocently.
"It was good. Why you asking me this?" He narrowed his eyes and placed his coffee down on the coaster.
"No reason..." I shrugged and smiled.
"Jaliyah.." He tilted his head.
"Okay. Pops, I wanna go to a party tonight with Frankie. And before you ask, the host is Daniel's cousin, Troy. You know who that is. It's also only 10 minutes away from home. Please, father?".
He removed his glasses, "I don't want you coming home no later than 1." He mentioned.
"1? C'mon, daddy, I'm not a little girl anymore.." I frowned.
"You still are living under my roof." He smartly replied.
"1:30 and that's the latest." He picked up his coffee and took a sip.
"Hm...Okay, dad. Where mama at?".
"She's at the salon already. You better hurry up and eat because your expected there at 10." He looked down at his watch.
"I sure will." I grabbed myself a plate.
8:20 p.m
I stood up from my computer chair that was in my room and walked over to the mirror. I took a good look at myself before walking over to Frankie who was finishing up in her hair. She got up also and spun around a little, showing me her outfit.
"You look amazing!" I grinned.
"Thank you, so do you, girl." She smiled also.
"Okay, Daniel has just texted me and he's saying that he's downstairs waiting on us." She grabbed her phone from the bed.
"Hold up, I wanna take a picture and post it on Snapchat." I mentioned.
After taking my selfie, I put a caption and posted it on my story.
