Yea I think I'm smoking dick because I think I just saw my ex girlfriend from high school . The girl that ran away breaking my heart and not telling me why. The girl that claims has a son that can possible be mine. I just knew something told me to come to Florida but I just couldn't find out why, now I know. I have to talk to her, I just have too. Right now I'm just chilling with Derrick in his dorm room since we just came back from practice.

"Ayo my guy, you remember that shawty I was dating back in high school?" I asked out the blue. He nearly almost choked on his drink he was sipping. He had that shock but worried look on his face.

"Who um what? You mean that girl you dated? Yea I remember, nah I don't remember her," He stuttered

"Oh so we lying now my guy? Was that her at the restaurant?" I asked. He took a pause.

"Yea man that was Aneis," he finally confessed.

"Damn man, and yo ass ain't tell me why?"

"I told her to tell you, I thought she was going to speak when she was talking to Keith and them but she flunked," he told me. "And that son of hers, did y'all fuck before she left?"

"Man I'm thinking the same thing you thinking. I need to talk to her unless this shit going to be in my head for a long ass time," I said rubbing my hands down my face. It's the truth, it happened when she first left. All I could think about was her and wondering if she was ok. My grades got low, started doing drugs and shit. I was losing friends like a motherfucker, only my boy Derrick stucked by me.

What happened between Aneis and I was all my fault. I did love her, shit I might still do. Back then when we was juniors, I fucked her, then fucked another bitch, she found out then left my ass. Not only me, everyone. The whole fucking state. Her aunt tried looking for her but one month went by and she gave up. Her parents aren't in her life so she only had her aunts and cousins who gave no fucks about her. Her cousins were to young to even know what's happening. Yo why the fuck do I still remember this. This girl turns a nigga soft quick as hell.

"Let's hit up Keith then, he said he close as hell to her," he suggested. Keith did say he was, hell I'm surprise I pay attention to that conversation. But I like how Derrick not telling me he has her number.

"Really bro, I know you have her number," I told him. His eyes got so wide, nigga got caught.

"Damn she gon be mad as hell at me, here you go man," he said pulling out his phone. "Don't text her now, she at work. I say you just go to Keith's crib on the day Aneis- yo nigga, Keith got Dominic. Let's go chill with the two little monsters," He suggested.

"Damn, college bring the smart nigga out of you," I joked while laughing.

"I was not that dumb before- you know what, you wanna go or not?" he said. I laughed more and got up and got ready. He hit up Keith then we head out to his crib.

-

"Ayo waddup," Keith said opening the door with nothing but shorts on.

"Nigga, why you never fully dress. I ain't wit that gay shit," Derrick told him walking in the house.

"Nigga shut up, I ain't tryna impressed yo ugly ass. It's hot as hell in this bitch," Keith told him. I dabbed Keith up and saw Nae running across the living room with Dominic following her.

"HA HA YOU CAN'T CATCH-" She was interrupted with Dominic throwing a couch pillow at her. She stop running and froze, shocked at what just happen. Dominic tapped her and ran off.

"YOU IT!!"

"KEITH! HE HIT ME WITH A PILLOW!" Nae snitched like we ain't all just see what happen.

"Go get him then girl, runn!" He told her. She took off towards Dominic disappearing out our vision.

"That little boy funny, he stay giving shawty girl a headache," Keith said. I'm sure he is talking about Aneis, "Y'all niggas hungry?"

"Hell yea," Derrick answered

"Why y'all ain't bring food, I'm hungry as hell too," Keith said. I chuckled, I won't even that hungry. Derrick and him went back and forth and I sat on the coach pulling out my phone. I got her number, I really wanna call or text her so bad but I just know that's a bad idea. Once they was done going at each other, they sat on the couch and Keith cut his PlayStation on.

"You ready to get cho ass beat in madden?" Keith told Derrick.

"Nigga you know Fortnite my game,"

"That wack ass game, Dominic downloaded that bitch on my shit when I was sleep. Woke up lost as hell," Keith shared. Dominic sounds like little me.

"Bet, give me that remote then," Derrick said trying to take the controller but Keith pulled it back. Then they started going at each other for the controller.

"Y'all niggas a fool," I laughed picking up a the second controller.

"KEITHH! KEITH!" Nae and Dominic shouted walking into the living room.

"What?"

"I'm tired," Nae said taking her blanket from behind Keith then walking back into the room they came from.

"I'm not, what y'all neegas doing," Dominic said sitting beside me. Derrick busted out laughing.

"Neegas," He mocked Dominic. Keith popped Dominic arm.

"Don't say shit you wouldn't say around cho mother!" Keith snapped, "If Aneis finds out I got him cussing over here, it's over,"

"Who are y'all?" Dominic said looking at me. Damn this little nigga look like me.

"Derrick, and this yo-" I cut Derrick off but hitting him in his chest.

"Maurice," I told him.

"Hi, I'm Dominic. I don't know why my momma named me that. She claims it's a special person name," He told us.

Dominic is my middle name.

-

Over an hour and a half went by and we all chilling on the coach. Nae is laying on the other couch by herself on her tablet, Derrick knocked up with his head falling back on the couch, Keith on the phone with some girl that nobody knows, and Dominic laying on me playing some random game on my phone. I grow a lot of love for this boy in just an hour, that shit crazy. He deadass like a little me, Derrick been telling me that this whole time we was here.

"More-rice, can you get Panda Restaurant?" Dominic ask me. He been struggling to say my name for a while, I don't blame him. I took my phone and downloaded it, this game lowkey look interesting. Shit, I might even play it myself. I gave him back my phone and next thing you know the door busted open.

"OMG KEITH I'M ABOUT TO KILL MY BOSS!" Aneis came in yelling in. "He gon tell me to smile more. BITCH YOU SMILE MORE! I SMILE, JUST NOT TO YO BITCH ASS! Ughhhh, that just killed my damn mood-" She stopped talking once she saw all of us on the couch. Her eyes got so wide, she just froze there lost. I miss her so much. She gotten thicker, her big hazel eyes still sparkling and shit, and her lips full and thick as before. Damn she bad.

"Momma, you don't smile much-"

"I will throw my shoe at you little boy, get your things we leaving-"

"Whoa Aneis, chill. I just order some pizza, just relax," Keith said hanging up the phone and walking towards her. He hugged her and put her things on the table. "There you go, relax, smile-" He stop when she gave him that look for you to be quiet. He laughed, Nae and Dominic got up and hugged her. Derrick snorted making himself wake up looking lost as hell

"Oh hey shawty," Derrick said noticing Aneis.

"Don't talk to me Derrick," She said while Dominic dragged her towards the couch.

"Wassup Aneis," I finally said to her. She looked up at me with a face I just could not recognize.

"Hey.."
