"Girl I'm out side" I say to Kaí, waiting in-front of her house. Minutes later she comes walking out the door. "Hey bitch" she says as she gets in. "Hey hoe" I respond and give her a hug. I put my car in drive and we make our way to the mall.

"Kaí do you think this would be cute" I ask her holding up a tie-dye shirt. She nods and I get the shirt along with a couple other items. Kaí and I walk to Cinnabon. While we wait in line a boy comes up to us.

Boy: hey how y'all doing?

Kaí: hi.

Brandi: hello.

Boy: you caught my eye from over there and I couldn't help but come over and tell you how fine you are. I'm Domenic.
