It was nine in the morning on a Sunday and I was still stuck thinking about the promoter.
I wonder what's his name?
I decided to get back on twitter and look through his tweets to find his name. After a couple of minutes, I realized that this nigga was mysterious. No nickname or nothing. I eventually gave up and decided that I needed to head to the café and meet with the girls for brunch.
Five minutes later I finished doing my hygiene routine and it was time to pick out an outfit. I knew I had a stomach so I decided to do a T-shirt dress and some sandals. I slicked my hair back into a bun and let them know I was heading out.
KalimaI woke up beside Al and I was disgusted in myself.
How did I fall for that lame shit again?
While he was sleep I called an Lyft back to my place and went to take a shower.
The thing about me and Al is that we go way back like back to middle school. He was my first boyfriend, my first everything, however he had a habit of cheating and lying. I was so blind to see it and he would go on these 'breaks' that he used to cheat on me.
While I was in the shower, I just couldn't help but think about all this that I let him put me through. I decided today was enough. After, I got out the shower I preceded to blocked him on all my social media and my phone. I felt free.
My phone started ringing, "Hello?" I said still getting dressed."Hey baby how you are doing?" My momma said.
"Good Momma! How you?" I said smiling.
"I'm good, I'm good, Lima I was wondering was everything okay at school?"
I got quiet and thought about last night."Everything's okay momma."
"Mm you still seeing Albert?"
"No not really momma he's blocked on everything. I just feel like he's taking advantage of all my weaknesses."
"Well that's good baby. I just wanted to check on you because I had a dream about fish last night."
When she said that I damn near shitted on myself.
"Oh really" I said nervously."Yea, but since you said you're not seeing him it can't be true."
"Yea"
"Well baby girl, your daddy trying to fix the GMC Truck and I think he need help," we laughed.
"Okay momma, I'll talk to you later love you!"
"Love you too Lima talk to you later."
She hung up and I finished getting ready to go to brunch with the girls. I let them know I was on my way in the group chat and walked over to the café.

I sat in the café and seen Kalima, I got up to hug her."Hey mamas!" I said.
"Hey." She said kind of quiet.
"What's going on?"
"Nothing, my momma just had a dream about fish."
"Oh, shit you think it's for you?" I said drinking my half and half.
"Girl I don't even know. I'm kind of scared though like what if it is?"
"Well you know you have a support system, and ya' momma already kind of know so you don't gotta' worry about telling her."
She nodded, "well girl let me go get this food."
She got up and went to get her plate. I scrolled on twitter and retweeted shit, laughed and teared up at tweets.Damn twitter always has me in my feelings😂💀 I tweeted then put my phone down and kept eating.
Eventually Rose and Kalima both came back and I was almost done eating. Kalima explained to Rose what happened and Rose had the same expression as I had.
