After a five year relationship a young business woman ends her engagement with her ex after infidelity ruins the relationship. Slowly getting her groove back, during a friends birthday celebration a party heckler sparks her interest. But once her ex...
Today was Christmas and I had my family over for dinner. My mother cooked a huge meal which left everyone stuffed. The hardest part about tonight was keeping the fact that Giselle and I haven't been together since the beginning of August. I told my mother and father that I was too busy and gave her the okay to go home for the holidays so she wouldn't be alone. Luckily it made since, because this dinner was last minute and I did have work to do. My mother still wanted to have a nice family meal even though Shawn, Kenzo our mutual friend Terrence and I left for Hawaii tonight. We decided to leave the night before the girls so we could keep our groups separate for as long as we could, in order to fully celebrate Shawn and Scottie's last days as a bachelor and bachelorette.
Scottie and JT were taking us to the airport so they lingered around my crib while Shawn slept off his Hennessy spiked eggnog that he had way to much of before our 12am flight. I left the ladies to do whatever women do while I went up to my room to make sure I packed everything I needed, especially the rings. If I forgot those I might as well hang myself now before Scottie did. It was bittersweet going to Hawaii to watch My cousin and his bride to be get married.
Especially after everything that has taken place between Giselle and I. Four months ago I envisioned her and I attending the wedding together with high hopes that we would be next after them. But these days that didn't seem too likely. I haven't spoken to her since the basketball game, and was unsure if she truly believed me when I told her I still loved her and just needed time. The truth is there was so much work that needed to be done with my business and it was so stressful that I needed to give that all of my attention before I could fully invest in making sure Giselle and I were good. We deserved to be able to work it out without any interference. The moment I lay my eyes on that fine ass woman in Hawaii I was gonna give her the full court press and there was nothing that was going to stop me from getting the girl of my dreams back. I know she might be upset with me at first for shutting her out again but if I used the same persistence I did in the beginning I'm damn sure I can get my woman back.
A couple hours later and a somewhat sober Shawn we arrived at the airport with our luggage. I sat back as Scottie kissed and hugged shawn while talking to him in a baby voice. I glanced at JT who was clearly over it as she honked the horn.
"Alright luh princess hurry it up! If you let his ass go you can see him sooner."
"I'm coming Jatavia! I can't help that I love my man so much. Now y'all have fun and Jordan if you let him do something stupid I will cut your little pecker off and beat you with it."
"Don't listen to this boujee bitch! Shawn go ahead and get your luh snicker bar licked by one of these Hawaiian hoes and Jordan get him fucked up! Now let's go I'm ready to leave!"
I laughed so loud at JT. She was clearly so over it that she didn't care that she was playing with fire, knowing good and well scottie would turn into Jason Vorhees over shawn in a heartbeat. But my cousin was two things, hood and impatient. That straight out of Dade County mentality always gets the best of her.
"Let me go before I have to kick her ass. Bye boys I love you."
"Bye baby I love you too" Shawn said still groggy from his nap at my house.
"See you later sis! And JT please don't hurt her." I said still laughing at the both of them. They bickered like sisters all the time but deep down loved the hell out of one another.
"Can't make no promises boo! Bye y'all!"
The girls pulled off and we made our way inside. Kenzo and Terrence were already here and said they were waiting near our terminal. Reggie planned to come a day late after his game against Green bay. Right before we went through TSA I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see it was my home girl Stacey Porter from high school.
"Aye! What's up stacey!? Ain't seen you in a minute, how you been?"
"I know! It's been awhile but I've been good. I'm working with a nonprofit for kids, you know giving back and shit."
"Yeah! I heard that's good stacey. You remember my cousin Shawn right!?"
"Of course I remember Shawn. Y'all was like the finest niggas in high school. Everybody wanted one of them Michael's boys. I just can't believe the biggest man hoe of Douglas High School is getting married!"
"I may have been a hoe but I distinctively remember you being head over heels for my man's right here."
"You damn straight! He was my Egg baby daddy in Home Ec!"
Stacey and I became cool in school when we had home economics. She was my partner when we had to take care of a egg as a child for a week. She always kept me laughing. We tried to be the best parents we could be to our son we named Scrambled.
"She was in to it too. She used to call me bae and baby. My girlfriend Taylor used to hate your ass for that cause folks thought I cheated on her with you."
"Oh! See our beef started way before that. She was still mad I took her nigga and her juice box in Pre K."
"Damn. You a straight savage. Whatever happened to her?"
"I heard she work at Kroger in mableton and got like four kids with three baby daddies and live with her 1st kids daddy."
"At least she got a job. I guess!" Shawn said pulling straws to make her situation seem better than what it was.
"Y'all my sister calling me to hurry up! Let's take a picture real quick so I can show my mama you know she loved her some Jordan!"
"Okay! Cool"
A hour later we were sitting on the plane before takeoff. I checked my phone for any messages or calls before putting it on airplane mode. I noticed a notification from IG from stacey. She had posted our picture shortly after she left. I left a comment under her post just before takeoff.

1 HOUR AGO
As we took off for Hawaii I was not only excited to see my cousin who was more of a brother to me get married, but also hopeful that Giselle and I could finally resolve all our issues. We loved each other but let too many outside factors get in between us. I was upset at how she stopped talking to me before knowing the truth about Monica but she was scared that I was like Jarvis much like I was about her being like Ashlyn, and she protected herself the way she saw fit. But for the first couple of days I was just going to focus on sending shawn off. For now it was about him.
