Call On Me

seat

Arianna

It's been 2 months since I got shot in my side. I did 60 days of physical therapy and stopped going all together. I know it's supposed to be 90 days but I aint no charity case and I didn't need nobody feeling bad for me.

Now you can't tell me God ain't real. All glory to him that I walk on 2 feet as if it never happened.

I realized I couldn't even be mad at my situation because being mad is only gonna stand in my own way. The most I can do Is work with what God gave me.

Whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.

My confidence came back, I feel good about myself. Im about to start going back to class regularly because college ain't free so I ain't got no time tho be wasting, missing out on this degree.

I rolled out of my bed, going to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. I readjusted my bonnet on my head before stepping out.

I heard Kentrell talking but no responses, like a phone conversation. I went downstairs following the voice into the kitchen. When he noticed me he was in the process of finishing up the call.

I opened the fridge, pulling out a trix yogurt. Yes my childish ass love these.

He turned to me, "I'm gone to the studio"

"You leaving me?" I walked around the island , stopping in front of him. He leaned his body against the island, holding his arms across himself.

He put his hand on my head "You going out today"

"Where we going?", I licked the aluminum foil top of the yogurt before tossing it in the small blue trash bin next him.

"You. I want my momma and all y'all to bond"

"Y'all? Who's y'all?" I scrunched up my face at the thought of seeing Jania this early in the morning. She not ugly but she too loud. She look like one of those girls that screamed "Bestfrannnnn" down the hallway before first period in high school.

"You, Lashonda, and my babymoms"

"Jania going ain't she?" She ain't a babymom but I know she in the equation somewhere.

"Yeah. Just be nice"

"Whatever Kentrell. You always up to something" I shimmied from under him, taking his hand off my head.

"Don't act like I won't put that limp back in yo leg"

"Go to your studio session boy", I walked out the kitchen with him following behind me.

I opened the door for him "How you putting me out my shit?"

"I run this" I told him firmly as a joke.

He chuckled, spinning his car keys on his index finger "Why run when you can ride?"

"Boy-" I shut the door in his face. Perverted ass.

He got me bent if he think I'm gone play friends with Starr and Jania. FUCK NOOO

That'd be so fake of me to play in that girl face like we friends, knowing what done did in the past.

Jania

Kentrell want all the women in his life to get along so he organized a date for me, Arianna, Teelee, Starr, his mom, Nisha, and Nia. Of course his mom wasn't gone come but Arianna didn't either which was weird to me because Teelee her best friend and she here.

Kentrell rented out the nicest spot in BR for us to have breakfast with a private catering.

I pulled out my phone doing a quick little video of the place and a pic of my plate so everybody back home know they can't fuck with me. I'm not no regular bitch no more. My nigga introduced me to the finer things.
