Because of our talk and Foreign being so patient with me, I decided to take him on a date to thank him. I thought it would be a good idea to do a sip and paint here at my apartment. That way if we had too much to drink we could avoid the drunk driving. Plus it gives us some alone time to talk about anything that we want without having people in our business.
Foreign went out and got all the equipment and I made us dinner to eat before we started. Instead of getting dressed up we ate in our pajamas so that we were comfortable. No need to dress up when we are in the comfort of my home.
"Anything new happen at work?"
"Rome wants me to train this new person he has coming in."
"Really, what's their name?"
"I believe he said their name was Ace."
"Is he any good?"
"From what I saw yeah."
"Well congratulations baby, Rome must think you have real talent to train someone."
"That or he's just pushing the shit off on me to do because he doesn't feel like doing it."
"Think positively babe."
"I guess."I look over at him before looking back at my phone trying to mimic the image on my phone. I decided to go with a field of sunflowers and a sunset. Whatever Foreign was painting I knew it's be way better than mine since he was an artist.
I hum lightly to the nineties music that is playing on my phone trying to see what colors to mix together to make my sunset pop. Foreign looks at me in shock hearing me try and hit the high note that only Latasha from Xscape could hit on their song Who can I run to.
"What was that?"
"I was trying to hit the high note, What it didn't sound good?"
"Sound like yo ass was struggling."
"Whatever, I wasn't that bad."I take a sip of my strawberry lemonade trying to soothe my throat. Foreign is still laughing at my expense. I roll my eyes.
"Bullshit."
"Damn tell me how you really feel."
"All I'm saying is I've heard you sing better."
"Stop clowning me."
"I'm sorry."
"Let me hear you sing since yo ass laughing at me."
"Aight put on Meeting in my bedroom by Silk."
"So you really think you can hit those high notes."
"Might do better thank you."
"Fuck you."I grab my phone and search through my playlist before I come across the song and press play.
"Damn baby not yet."I lift my hand up to shoot him a bird.
"Whatever."
"Looking at my rollie girl I see it's almost time. I hope you getting ready girl and don't forget the wine"
"Sing it baby."I start back painting enjoying his voice. Though Foreign wasn't the best singer, he wasn't horrible either. The man can definitely hold a note.
"Tonight is just for you and I and it's gonna be so fly. I like having you around so I gotta put you down. So be there or be square."
"Aye, there's a meeting in my bedroom."
