<Next day; Monday>

Elijah drove me to school today. I had about 3 classes this morning/afternoon then we both go to work. I had some time between classes so I was hanging out with a group of my friends as we all waited for our classes to start. My phone vibrated in my pocket and I took it out and looked at the name.

Unknown number:
text message

I hadn't given my number to anybody other than some friends, family, and Elijah. I slid open my phone and read the message.

Unknown number: Hey there baby girl.

It could've been a prank because my friends did things like that. As childish as it is, they still do it. I texted back a quick response.

Me: Who is this ?

I got a response as quickly as I sent my reply.

Unknown number: Maybe this will jog your memory, shorty baby.

Me: Darius ?

Darius: Awww baby you're so smart.

Darius isn't an ex but he was a guy who I was friends with benefits with and one day he went overboard and we ended things. We really didn't end on good terms so I just don't understand. Why text me now? I tried to reach out and talk to him a couple of times after because I was there him all the time and still wanted to be but he was just so rude to me afterward to the point where I just stopped trying to have any type of relationship with him.

Me: What do you want ?

Darius: So who's your new boyfriend ?

I wasn't going to tell him about Elijah because that was none of his business. It doesn't even matter. Elijah and I's relationship is okay the way it is. People might not know we're together like that, but they know I got somebody and he does too. It's not that hard to pair two and two.

Me: None of your business. Now, what do you want ?

Darius: Still hiding things I see.

Me: Doesn't matter. What do you need ?

Darius: That's no way to talk to me, shorty baby. Would he be happy with that ?

I honestly didn't think Elijah would even care. He might be mad at the fact I let him call me all these names and I texted him back but not how I was talking to him. I was talking to him like I had a nigga not like I flirting back or nothing.

Me: He's nothing like you, period.

Darius: Of course not baby girl. He can't please you the way I know how.

Me: Lmaooo still haven't answered my question.

Darius: Don't get smart with me. You wasn't saying none of that when was in class now, did you ?

Me: Okay we were young.

Darius: Yet you enjoyed every minute of it.

By that time, my friend and her boyfriend were standing over me looking at me.

"Aye sis you good ? You look a lil shooken up," my friend Layla asked me.

"Yes gurl I'm perfectly fine," I lied while standing up from the bleachers grabbing my bag.

"Alright just text me if you need anything, imma always be here for ya, you know"

"I know thanks but class starts in about 3 minutes we better get going," I said walking down the steps. "See y'all later," I wave to the both of them.
