NEXT DAY:
I was awoken by my bedroom door being swung open and an angry Jamal standing there.
Me: what happened?
Jamal: you told me you spoke to him yesterday.
Me: I did.
Jamal: then what are these?
He threw a few bunches of flowers in front of my bed walking up to me.
Me: I told him to stop.
Jamal: then why the fuck are they here?
I picked up the note reading it. 'tell him you still love me'...
**
I couldn't stop shaking my leg as I sat in the taxi with Jamal on the way to meet Tyree. None of them knew what was happening but I need them to atleast be cordial with each other so I'm not in the middle of them. But I planned this all before the flowers were delivered this morning so I'm not sure how Jamal would react to seeing him.
Jamal: why do you look so nervous?
Me: I'm fine.
He put his hand on my thigh as the taxi stopped outside of the restaurant.
Jamal: do you need to tell me something?
Me: please don't fight with him.
Jamal: what?
Me: I invited Tyree so you two could talk.
Jamal: taxi can you drive us back home now.
Me: no don't. We need to do this, baby please?
Jamal: imarni why the fuck would you set me up like this?
Me: because I knew if I asked you you would've said no.
Jamal: so you think this is better?
Me: I just want you two to stop fighting everytime you see each other.
Jamal: he's the one that's always starting on me. I've never thrown the first punch.
Me: so let's talk about it together and stop it from happening again.
Jamal: fine.
I sighed out getting out of the taxi as he did the same.
Me: I'll make it up to you I promise.
We walked into the restaurant to the table until tyree stood up from his chair screwing Jamal so hard.
Jamal: I'm guessing he didn't know about this either.
Me: I'm going to talk to him first.
Jamal sat down so I held onto Tyree's chest pushing him back so I could speak to him.
Me: look at me.
He continued screwing his face up but refused to look at me.
Me: fine, don't look at me. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about this but I need you and Jamal to clear up whatever is going on between you two. I hate that everytime you see each other one of you ends up with a black eye or a busted lip so please just do this for me?
He continued ignoring my existence.
Me: Tyree please?
Tyree: I'm not doing this.
Me: I just want the fights to stop.
Tyree: if you told me you was going to do this bullshit I would've never came.
Me: that's why I didn't tell you.
Tyree: I'm leaving.
Me: please just sit down.
Tyree: and then what?
Me: we can talk.
Tyree: I already told you I'm okay with us being just friends.
Me: I know that.
Tyree: so what the fuck is this?
Me: I love you and I care about you.
Tyree: is that why you want me to sit across the table from you and your boy after you friend zoned me?
Me: I'll make it up to you I promise.
Tyree: Christmas Eve and New year's Eve?
I slowly nodded as he finally looked at me. We both went to sit down with Jamal at the table, the tension was still so thick.
Jamal: have you got a problem with me?
Tyree: no but I will if I see imarni crying again because of you.
Jamal: she won't be.
Tyree: then it's all good.
Jamal: what's going on with you two?
Tyree: we're friends.
Jamal: that's it?
Me: Jamal I already told you about this.
Jamal: then explain the flowers and 'tell him you still love me' explain that.
I looked at Tyree who looked a little amused.
Tyree: my bad.
Jamal: is that a joke?
Tyree: I don't need to explain anything to you.
Jamal: you need to stop sending my girl flowers.
Tyree: or what?
They went into a death staring match.
Me: can you both eat your food please?
Tyree: what do you want out of this?
Me: I want you both to stop being against each other.
Tyree: kool, I'm done fighting.
Me: Jamal, you too.
Jamal: same. I'm done.
**
Me and Jamal got back to the house, he's still a little annoyed at me for not telling him Tyree was going to be there but I'm happy I did it because now they're cordial with each other.
Me: hi Cameron, welcome back.
Cameron: what's good Marni?
Me: nothing. Are you two official again now?
Cameron: na not yet.
Me: yet, so that means there's a chance?
He grinned walking away since he didn't want to say too much.
JAMALS POV:
Imarni went into her room but since I'm still mad at her for setting me up I stayed in the front room with Cameron. I'm guessing demari isn't here because they would've got into a fight by now I'm sure.
Me: so how did Jada get you back?
Cameron: she hasn't won me back.
Me: bro you know you're going to get back with her, she loves you.
Cameron: that doesn't mean we should be together though right?
Me: true, but if she's still trying to get with you doesn't that say something?
Cameron: I know she's still messing around with your boy.
I widened my eyes trying not to make it obvious.
Me: na they wouldn't do that.
Cameron: she can't think getting imarni and Romeo to set us up on a double date is going to make me forgive her it takes more than that.
Me: wait, hold on... Rewind... What did you just say?
Cameron: I said it's not that easy for me to just forgive her.
Me: no I mean you said imarni... As in my girl imarni and you said Romeo... As in the guy from the coffee shop that she told me she doesn't know?
Cameron: it was their idea.
