"Alright Deb, see you Monday!" I said to my co-worker as I walked out of the bank.
After what happened between me and Chris, I realized I couldn't work at the place he owned and see him when I didn't want to so his mom helped me get a job at a bank that was nearby my apartment as a teller and I still worked sometimes at Club Ice. We would've gone there tonight but I couldn't risk bumping into Chris while I was trying to enjoy myself..he ruined that the last time.
I have to say I enjoy working a 9-5 with weekends off. I got to spend more time with my son who was my everything. He was getting bigger and looking more like his father everyday.
I cried night after night when I realized Chris was finally done with me..as well as the fact that it was all my fault because I had lied to him and I felt extremely guilty. Some days, my mom would have to come and watch CJ for me because I just couldn't force myself to get out the bed. I had to beg her not to tell his mom because she definitely would've told him and I did not want to hear his mouth. Then one day, I thought about how Chris was most likely not going through the same thing I was so why was I continuing to cry over spilled milk? I decided to get myself together and if Chris didn't want to be with me anymore, then so be it. I was going to do me and be the absolutely best mother I can be to our son..with or without him.
Sage called me before I left work to let me know she wanted to go out tonight and I quickly accepted. CJ was with my mom and I initially was going to chill tonight but decided against it since I haven't been out in a while. I was more than ready to turn up.
Two hours later, Sage was picking me up from my house and blasting City Girls. We greeted each other as I got in her and then she pulled off.
"Biiittchhh! Little CJ did your body right! You ready to stunt on these hoes tonight!" I couldn't even lie, I looked good and my outfit was on point.

This would be my first time going out since the accident as well as having CJ and now that I was single, I was ready to show out.
"He definitely did girl! At first I didn't like my weight gain..it was another thing that made me sad along with you know who. I guess after I got out my funk I just embraced it, you know?"
"Well now that you single we need to find you a nigga that's gonna embrace it too!" I sucked my teeth.
"Oh girl please! I'm not saying you gotta jump into a relationship or something but you can definitely find a boy toy for the night since little man not home. You grown...you can be a hoe for the night if you want!" She said very enthusiastically.
"Sis I don't know about hoeing but I don't mind a little entertainment while I'm drunk."
"Alright well that's no problem. Your wingman gon' help you out tonight!" This girl was crazy but I don't know what I'd do without her.
