Desires POV

Wednesday, November 18, 2016

I just gotten home from a long day at work. August has been on my mind since our meeting Monday . I've typed & erased a text message to him multiple times . I really want to text him and tell him I'll take him up on that offer , but he's so young! I don't know if a pretty face and a gorgeous attitude even makes up for his lack in age .

.. but I haven't been involved with anyone in years . Maybe one date wouldn't hurt. Right ?

-hey Mr. Alsina. I know it's kind of late but , I accept your offer.. if it's still on the table..

I sunt the message and threw my phone on the bed and walked away from it from my nervousness . I sat in my chair and anticipated his response .

After about 15 minuets or so he replied .

- of course it is shawty . How does Saturday night sound ?

- that's just fine with Mr . Alsina . What time ?

- say 7 ?

- perfect .

- I'll pick you up ?

- uhh , yeah that's fine . I'll send you the address Saturday .

- Ight ma . You have a good night beautiful . 💛

- you do the same August ..

I sure hope I hadn't made the wrong decision .

August POV

Me and Ava was chillin in the bed watchin paw patrol when I gotta text from Desire about my date offer .

I was happy she had accepted . I just wonder how far would this go. Would this actually be something or would she end up being nothing more than a friend . Desire is a woman about her business and I know that . She's probably use to big time millionaires and stuff . Even tho I wasn't a millionaire , I hustle and grind for mines .

I'm finally to the point where I can go on dates and stuff . Losing my baby mama Essence was the toughest thing ever . She died giving birth to our daughter . She just seemed like the most beautiful girl in the world to me .

Every day was hard . Essence was my whole world . I had been in love with her since I was 19 . Having to raise this little baby by myself was hard . I thanked God for Essence's mama tho , mama Monica . She always looked out when I needed her , something my own parents neva did .

I talked to Essence every day spiritually . Just a few months before I met Desire , Essence told me it was time to move on. She said that Ava needed a mother and I needed a companion . I had always asked her to show me who when that time came. Lately she hasn't been sayin anything , but maybe that's her way of confirming ? I don't know. I do know that the same type of vibe Essence had , Desire has and I think that's what attracted me most to her aside from her being drop dead gorgeous .

I'm praying and hoping that Desire will be that person Ava and I need .
