I laid in bed, writing in my journal as I was on FaceTime with Amani.

"Yeah." I said to her as she asked me yet another question about prom next month.

"What colors are you and Amaru wearing again?" She asked.

"Red and Black." I said to her as I jotted things down.

"I think I want to wear white." She said and I furrowed my eyebrows.

"This is not a wedding." I giggled.

"Yeah but I mines well get prepared." She said and I rolled my eyes.

Amani and Jay were supposedly engaged. Amaru hasn't spoken to Amani since she told him and I've been trying to talk her out of it.

"Mani." I said looking into the camera.

"Ri, I'm doing this." She said and I shook my head.

"What do you think your mom is going to say?" I asked her.

"She isn't going to know." She said and I scoffed.

"Mani, he isn't right for you." I told her, truthfully.

"I think he is..." She trailed off, pouting.

"Can you please just be happy for me Ri, I need at least one person to be." She said sadly and I nodded, sympathetically.

"Alright." I sighed, giving up.

"Thank you." She said, moving around.

"Amaru's FaceTiming me." I said as his name popped up on the screen.

"Alright, answer for your man.." She flagged, making me laugh.

"Call me back when y'all hang up." She said.

"Alright." I said answering his call.

"Whats up, babygirl?" He said as his face came onto the screen, making me smile.

"Hey." I smiled, putting my pen down.

"I miss you." He said.
