Y'all still don't understan-
_________________________________Stokeley
It wasn't my idea to get the gift I got Jah, it was Kim's idea. As much as I wanted to slap the shit out of him and tell him no, I have no choice but to listen to him. Kim is literally a walking warning sign, I have to listen to every single thing he has to say.
What Kim had told me to give to Jahseh was a necklace. Kim said he had gotten it from Cordae when we visited the hospital, he told him to give it to Jahseh but he was too scared to give it to him himself so he gave it to Kim, Kim said that Cordae told him Jahseh would know what it is whenever I give it to him. It's been a month and now Kim thinks it's the best time to give it to me. But you know, Kim knows best.
"What's it you have for me?" Jahseh asks me as I park the car.
"Apparently, it's a surprise." I said.
"What do you mean apparently? You better not be scaring me, it's past Halloween."
"It's not anything scary, why would I do that?" I said getting out the car and going over to his side and opening the door for him.
"Because you're that type of person." He says.
I grab his hand and help him out the car.
"And where is this surprise you got for me?" Jahseh asks.
"At your place."
"How'd you get it at my place?"
"Well, I'm not the one who set it there." I said.
We reach his house door.
"Okay, close your eyes."
"Why do you I need to close my eyes?" He asks
"Just do it." I insisted.
He sighed then closed his eyes. I knocked on the door.
"I don't think Kim is home, just let me unlock the door." Jahseh says.
The door then swings open, revealing Kim is in fact home.
"Kimmy is home but he's about to leave soon. And what's in that big poorly wrapped box you wanted me to set on the table earlier, Stoke?" Kim asked, getting out the way to let us in.
"Poorly wrapped? I knew you couldn't make drinks but you can't wrap boxes too? Christmas is gonna be rough." Jahseh says making Kim and him laugh. I rolled my eyes and lead him towards the small PERFECTLY wrapped box.
I picked it up and handed it to him, his eyes still closed. He unwrapped it, Kim and I taking quick glances at each other.
"The fuck is this? Are these anal beads? You a whole freak, Stoke." Jahseh says. Kimetrius goes into a laughing fit, I roll my eyes and walk over to help him put on the necklace.
"Keep your eyes closed." I reminded him.
I finally clip the necklace on for him and move him towards the mirror in the living room.
"Open." I said.
He opened his eyes and examined the necklace without saying a word. I didn't know if he was mad, he didn't like it, or he liked it. He didn't say anything for a while. I finally got the courage to ask.
"Do you..like it?" I asked.
He didn't answer me for a little, he just examined his new accessory for a few more seconds.
"I don't like it." He finally says. "I love it. How'd you get it? I thought his dad took everything." He says giving me a hug. I look at him confused, then at Kim. Dad? Who's dad?
"Um..what?" I said.
"This is Kentrell's necklace, how'd you get it? Did he give it to you?" Jahseh says.
"Oh. I-I..I got-"
"Stokeley got it from Cordae, Kentrell's dad gave it to him to give to give to me, to give to Stokeley to give to you, if that made sense." Kim interrupts.
"Oh wow..wow." Jahseh says turning to the mirror and looking at his necklace again. "I'm never going to take this off."
"I'm glad you like it." I said
He turned back to me and gave me a kiss.
"Awe! You guys are so cute, just get married already." Kim says interrupting.
Jahseh runs over to Kim and gives him a tight hug. "Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Kimmy. I love you so so much for everything." Jahseh says.
"Stoke, if you don't get your fat ass over here and join the hug." Kim says waving me over. I walk over and hug them both, making it a group hug.
"Yeah, yeah, y'all are cute and all, but Kim and I are finna be late!" I heard.
We all pay our attention towards the door, where we see Jared standing in the doorway.
"Oh hey, Jared, How'd you get here?" Jahseh says.
"The door was open wider than the range of foods Stokeley eats in a day." He responds.
"I didn't even notice. Where are you guys going?" Jahseh asks.
"The movies, just to hang out." Kimetrius says.
"Since when were you two friends?" I asked. These two always argued every time we'd all have a conversation in the group chat.
"Since..now." Jared answers. "Anyway, we gotta go."
Jahseh giggles, "Oh okay. Take care of him, Jared. Don't leave keep him out too late. Make sure to call me in case of an emergency, Kimmy."
"Why are you acting like my mom." Kim says annoyed.
"Because, I am your fucking mom." Jahseh responds.
Kim rolls his eyes and nodded, leaving out the door with Jared.
"Make sure to use a condom!" Jahseh yells once more.
"Jahseh!" I said playfully hitting him.
"What? I'm just reminding them. Sexually transmitted diseases is real." He says. I kiss his forehead.
"You're funny, Jahseh."
