"Honey you so sweet
Sugar got a long way to catch you

All I gotta do is add a lil lemmon
You my favorite drank
Ya make me thank

Erykah Badu x Honey

Here we are in the same room together. It was a little awkward, haven't seen the guy in months. I was starving and I needed to wash yesterday off me. "I'm going to shower," I said. "Okay cool," he said walking in the kitchen. Julian never cooks but he figured he'd whip up something for them. He grabbed some bacon, eggs, and a can of biscuits. Honey walked in the shower letting the water run down her body. She was terribly horny but she didn't want to have sex just yet. He didn't deserve it but she was happy he apologized and she was willing to move forward with him. She grabbed her Dove body wash that was still in his bathroom lathering her body with it. Once she finished she opened her side of the drawer grabbing a pair of underwear and a t-shirt. Once she was clothed she walked out to see Julian shirtless making breakfast. She rolled her eyes at what he was doing. Sorry, buddy but that wasn't going to work. "For me? She asked sitting down. "You know it" he turned around handing me a plate of biscuits eggs and bacon. "Surprised you cook, you never cook," I said. "Not like we can go out and get some food" he chuckled going in the fridge to get my butter and strawberry jelly I love. "Don't forget the Honey too" I said.

"Yeah, I definitely want some of that" he grabbed it. I grabbed my knife spreading some butter on my biscuits then my jelly then drizzling it with Honey. The both of started to eat and it was super quiet. Honey closed her eyes enjoy her food. She didn't eat enough yesterday that's why she was so drunk. "Food is good," she said.

"Thank you I try," he said. "So, what's new? He asked her. "Oh, I got a gig from BET to be the behind the scenes photographer for The En Vogue story," I told him. "Wow, that's great. Congratulations. I'm happy for you" he said. Honey smiled but she was a little saddened, it didn't sound like he was too happy this whole morning was just flat. "Yeah, it's in Atlanta...I'll be down there for about 2 months," she said. "I mean, you gotta chase your dream baby. It's your time to shine" he said. I could tell he was disappointed "I leave in a few months," she said. "We'll work something out" he finished eating. "Yeah," I said finishing up as well.
"What else? He asked me. "I brought a studio and I plan on opening it very soon," I said.
"Damn, I feel like I missed out like I'm not apart of your accomplishments anymore," he said saddened.

"Well, you know now," I told him. "You need any help? Give me the run down" he said

"So it's a studio that caters to anyone. You schedule to make appointments for photos. I'm hiring at least 8 photographers and there's different rooms with nice scenery and backdrops. I'll show you of course when its done" I explained. "And the opening is going to be a photoshoot party with all my work, food, pictures, just fun. I can't wait" I smiled

He nodded his head "So what about your job? He asked

"I'm resigning, I didn't tell Kay yet but I'm not going to lie ever since we rekindled our relationship all my job has been worried about is our drama and if I knew people because of you" I explained

"I guess you were reminded that all you were was just my girlfriend," he said. I wiped my mouth. "Yeah but I'm leaving to start my journey as well. I can't work for them my whole life" I said.
I grabbed my paper plate throwing it in the trash. I looked outside to see that the rain had let up. It was safe enough for me to get home. "What are we doing about this documentary? We never came to an agreement? He asked. I could tell Julian was stalling me just a little.
