 It was Sunday I normally go to my dad's house cook his Sunday dinner and I come home and soak for an hour and get ready for the week. I finished eating and began to get dressed. Simple true religion jeans and a Burberry shirt, shoes and grabbed my scarf and went to the front room. Corky was dressed and scrolling on his phone.

"Did they leave already" I asked.

"Yea, like an hour ago" he said.

"Thank you for waiting we can go now. I don't know where I'm taking you so you are going to have to drive. I let him out the house while I set my alarm to leave. I handed him the keys to my G Wagon. He unlocked the doors and opened my door for me and went around the car.

"You such a gentleman" I laughed

It was a comfortable silence while I scrolled on my phone until Corky spoke up.

"So, miss lady what's your real name I know JoJo isn't it" Corky asked

"It's Jordon and I know Corky not on your birth certificate" I asked

"It's Cornelius but, Corky sounds better."

"What's your occupation stuff like that. I see you living well and I see you dipped" He asked.

"Dipped what you know about dipped. I thought you was from Philly" I asked.

"Nah, I lived in Philly. Born and raised in Chicago Robert Taylor building"

"Damn how old are you" I asked

"I'm 28" He said

To answer your question, I don't work. I am a full-time student at GSU my father made some smart moves that way my brother and I wouldn't have to work unless we wanted to. I had came into some money and bought some properties and that's basically my income.

"Why you moving to Atlanta" I asked.

"I wanted a fresh start. Buy some stuff here and get my brand going what better place to do it then Atlanta".

"Sounds good when do you want me to take you around. I have classes Tuesday, and Thursday any other time I'm free" I asked.

"Whenever you up for it. I need to find someone to do my house I just bought. I need furniture, bed, couches and all that. I can't be crashing on Benji couch like we back in the hood" he said.

"What you mean find someone, did you not just hear me say I do this type of shit".

"I don't want no girly shit. You seem too prissy" he said.

"I did my whole condo and if you see my father's mansion you would take my offer".

"Can you get it done by the end of the month" he asked?

"The end of the month? I can have that shit done by Friday of this week. I got people what's the budget?

" You serious huh"?

"Dead serious I can start tomorrow have painters and a whole staff out. Don't play with JoJo" I laughed.

Ight, I'll see what you can do miss lady. Another 15 minutes passed and we were pulling into a drive way.

"Benji was talking about me this house looks nice as hell" I chuckled.

We both got out and I went over to the driver's side and Corky closed the door.

"You sure you can deliver" He asked

"I'm very confident in what I do" I said

"Ok give me your phone"
