By this time I was done getting dressed.I had on a sheer white shirt, blue jeans, and sock heels."Does this look okay? Or.." I ask walking into the living room seeing him fixing himself in the mirror.
"Huh?" He asks making eye contact; then completely spacing out.
"I said does this look alright?" I ask twisting and turning around.
"You look fine as fuck," He smiles before laughing, "my bad are friends aloud to say that?" He says making me laugh.
"Friends can say anything to be honest, so I'm gonna take that as a compliment.." I say.
"Alright..you ready?" He asks walking up to me.
"No..I still gotta curl my hair!" I laugh.
"Bro..." He sighs throwing himself on the couch.
"Listen, tienes que relajarte.. nobody goes to the club this early anyways I'm boutta go do my hair okay? Okay," I say.
"The fuck does tines que re— what does that mean and why you speaking spanglish?" He laughs making me laugh.
"Cause you getting on my nerves, it takes a while for me to get dressed and everything!" I laugh making him laugh.
"Sounds like someone's getting irritated," I hear Brooklyn say as she walks through the door, "hey sis! you look good where yah going?" She asks hugging me.
"Strip club," I say, "Why you wanna go?" I offer sitting on the couch.
"Nah, I would but I don't got nobody to hang out with.." She sighs going into the fridge.
"Meet up with your friends bro.. you got mad bitches you be hanging out with," I explain.
"I'm just gonna stay here, Durk just left to go back home to Chicago and Im tired anyways so yah enjoy the night out," She grabs a bottle of water out the fridge and a bag of doritos from the counter, "Nice seeing you again Rocky," She smiles before going up stairs.
"You too Brooklyn."
I turn around looking back at Rakim and at this point I didn't even feel like going out to the club anymore but if he was down to go still.. I would.
"You still wanna go to the club? I mean if you wanna go we can go but—."
"Nah, I wanted to take you somewhere anyways..out to eat.." He trails off watching me smile, "as friends of course."
"Alright can I change first though or is this fine?" I ask.
"It's cool Liyah," He laughs making me laugh.
"Alright so i'm gonna go upstairs and curl my hair real quick and then.. we.. can.. you wanna come upstairs?"
"Nah, just go ahead I'm good!" He laughs before I start walking away.
For some reason.. I felt bad for yelling at him.It just changed the whole vibe even if it was a joke.

Coppelia 📍
____________________________________
He took me to this fancy restaurant named Coppelia on 207 W 14th Street.It was a latin restaurant which was my favorite type of food to eat and Rakim's too.The place was somewhat quiet, not busy, very elegant and the workers were friendly and offered wine as soon as we sat down—we went with red.
"So you've never been here?" He asks from across the table.
"Nope, never heard of this place either.." I say looking around.
"I only been here twice with my management but I always get Camarones Enchilados."
