"The cause of this was from dehydration". The doctor told Zaire and Maliyahs mama. Maliyah mama just shook her head as Maliyah laughed. "I'll give her some medicine as she's yours". The doctor said. "Okay thank you". Maliyah mama said. '"No problem, it's my job". The doctor said walking out. "Well I'm off to work. Take care of my baby Z". Maliyah mama said. "Okay love you too". Maliyah and Z both said.
We both got back in the car and was headed to Waffle House. "I really wish you'd stop smoking and drinking". Maliyah said. Z looked at her and back at the road. "Nah probably not Liyah". He said. She looked down then looked back at the road. So we got in and sat down. She posted "Waffle House" on her snap. She only have two solid friends in Savannah Alexis and Brianna. They know about Z but not too much about him. They're more of school friends and go somewhere places kinda friends.
"Got any friends down here"? Z said. "Yeah. Two. Alexis and Brianna". Z said. "But Anyway what you wanna do when you get out of High School"? Liyah asked. "Maybe go to school... probably gone move my brothers and mama out the hood idk. But I wanna have kids a girl and a boy in memory of my sister and brother but I really don't know yet". Z answered. "You"? Z asked. "I wanna get my degree in business and I wanna be an entrepreneur. You know sell clothes and lip gloss all that". Liyah said. "Looks like we gone live two different lifestyles then". Z said. Liyah only looked down. She really wanted to live her life with him. She finally fell her him it took her eight years to realize it. "Well I start back school Monday. So I'll head out tomorrow". Z said paying for the food. Liyah just nodded.
So the next morning Z had left out and flew back to Chicago. It was a Saturday evening and there was a party tonight. My mama had to work tonight. We was gone spend the night together but you know.
Bri texted me and told me unlock the door. So I went and did that. It was 8 and the party started at 11 and ended whenever. "So y'all going to the party"? I asked her. "No we are". She said referring to all us. I rolled my eyes. "Look if you and Z meant to be it'll happen. But for now you're single and 18 you need to enjoy your self". Alexis said. Liyah agreed with them a little. But I mean what's the worse that'll happen.
So she got in the shower.. did what she had tooo and got out. She put on a black dress with some white shoes. She brushed her teeth and got Bri to flat iron her hair. She put a little makeup on and some lashes and grabbed her purse. It was 10:10 now. So they had time to take pictures and head out. As they were five minutes away from the party the song "realist in it by Lil Baby". Started playing and Liyah was recording herself and her friends as they pulled up to the house party.
Meanwhile back in Chicago....
Z had just gotten out the shower and was laid on the bed. He watched Liyah snap from the pictures of her in that dress till the videos of her and sighed. He laid his phone on his forehead unsure of what to do next.
