The sun was shining, the kids were laughing and the birds? Well i had woken up way to late to try and hear some fucking birds. I started my day as usual picking my clothes, taking a shower, and oiling up. I spritzed my hair and picked it till the tips were straight but still had that bounce too it. There you go. I thought My afro is beautiful. I threw my clothes on something simple. Grey crop top with a pair of skinnys and my long thin grey sweater. I thought i was the shit and nobody could tell me differently. The difference today was i had a date. I wasnt nervous i knew what i wanted and i just hoped he wanted the same. I picked a pretty public place to meet him. The library. I had exactly an hour and a half to be there or be square. As i made my way to the bus stop i thought about all the things i wanted out of a relationship. Love, loyalty, honesty, respect, time, nd attention. That wasnt too much to ask was it? I begin to second guess my self but before i could push my antisocial ass back into my home the bus arrived and i slowly made my way on it. Now not to sound conceited or anything but i was THE shit. I walked down the street with so much confidence you wouldn't believe i was so self conscience of my body. I think thats what really attracted him to me in the first place.
I made my way up the stairs to the young adult section to find a decent table that not alot of people would hear us talking from , but it just so happened to be sorta busy that day. I walked thru the isles not really looking at the books but kinda looking thru them and thats when i saw him. Now for me it wasnt love at first sight more like lust. His hair was braided and he was this fine ass dark chocolate. Dont get me started on the height. I learned later on he was 6ft even. Although i was there to meet another i couldnt help but to walk past to get a better look at this pure beautiful person. I stumbled pass just barely graceful and took a left and grabbed a random ass comic book off the shelf. I took a seat as fast as i could. I wasnt seated for more than 5 mins when he walked up to my chair.
"Exscue me" he said " what book you reading?"
I was so dumbfounded that he just spoke to me all i could do was flip the cover over and smile. "Oh is it any good?"
I manged to get a weak ass shrugg outta myslef. He continued
" i just wanted to tell you that youre gorgeous. My names Jeremy whats yours?"
This was the moment of truth. Was i gonna speak or be an asshole.
"My names kadijah."
"Kadijah. Thats a pretty name. Well kadijah can i have your number?"
The way he said my name low key made my knees weak. I didnt wanna turn him down but i also didnt know what was up with my date so i took action.
As i was smiling i laughed a bit " no but you can give me yours." It came out so slick and rich and flirty that i was surprised it came outta me!
He then had a full toothed smile and i just wanted to jump his bones right then and there. His smile was so big and bright and contagious. I put his number into my phone and we said our goodbyes. In all that time i hadnt noticed that my date never showed... I had been stood up!
