"Why is he so damn fione." I looked over my shoulder to find Erin staring off again. She been doing that a lot lately when a certain person came around, but it ain't none of my business. "Who?" Of course I knew who she was talking about, but again, my name Bennett and I ain't in it; some of the time.

"You know who I'm talking about. Nate." She answered back and I rolled my eyes, this girl been drooling after him since we was snot nose kids and she has yet to do anything about securing her mans. "Why don't you do something about it?" I walked out the dressing room leaving the clothes I tried on in the dressing room on the bench and wearing my regular clothes I walked in with on, placing my hat back on my head backwards.

"Are you crazy? What I'm supposed to do, walk up to him and do what? i LiKe YoU?" I chuckled at her commentary, but I was serious about what I said. "If you want yo man you do. I'm tired of you talking about him and you don't do anything about it. You been around me since five-ever ago and you still don't got the balls to get yo boo."

"I'm not like you Jaelyn. I can't go up to people and tell them how I feel and in my case that I like him." She was right, I wasn't with the fake shit, if I felt a certain way about you, you gon know period.

You have no idea how many times I got my behind beat when I was younger because I told my Great Aunt Evette she looked like my Great Uncle Sylvester with her mustache and all. It's not my fault, they was siblings or when Cousin Bea used to make the Mac and cheese and it tasted like foot. I mean if it's nasty, it's nasty. They wanted me to fold the plate in half and put it in the trash upside down. Nope, I wasn't about let them to continue to fill her head of lies like she could throw down in the kitchen when she couldn't. The only thing that should have been thrown down was that nasty as macaroni and cheese.

"And why not? You want me to hook y'all up?" Just cause I was single and honestly I didn't give a flying fuuuuuck about these triffling ass males didn't mean I was going to hate on my bestie getting hers. Her and Nathaniel was actually kinda cute together.

"Nooo! Jaelyn I can't deal if he don't like me back. What if he only sees me as a friend. I can't handle rejection." I was tired of her, my muhfucken bestie was beautiful for real. I knew it, she knew it, even he knew it, but every time she got around him or anything that had to do with him her self esteem would tank. I don't even know why though he ain't give her no reason to doubt herself at least to me he didn't.
