"So." I sat on the blanket that Jay laid out."What do you do?"

"Dang, straight like that huh?" He chuckle making me shrug my shoulders.
"In college about to commit suicide."

"Why...is it that bad?" I ask getting a little scared.

"I mean it's hard but you gotta stay focus, cause that shit is stressful as fuck."

"Dang." I look out at the water." You making me not want to go now." I said half joking.

"Naw,it's fun just don't lose yourself...what school?"

"Spelman." I cheese while he rolled his eyes.

"Why you wanna be by me?"

I scrunch my eyebrows wondering what he was talking about."What you mean?"

"I go to Morehouse, that's right by Spelman."

"Oh. I didn't know that...and so my school better anyway." I flip my hair laughing.

"The door, you haven't even started yet...talk to me in a couple of months." He pull out two sandwiches out the basket." My mother made these for us."

I smile." Aww, that's so sweet. Tell her I said thank you." I grab the sandwich unwrapping it from the bag it was in.

"Yeah. She was excited that I was going out and not staying in my room studying." He handed me a bag of chips.
"I hope you like Doritos."

"I do. I think it's good that you study. You stay out of trouble that way." I bit the sandwich.

"I guess. So you going to tell me your real name now Gege." He look at me as he twist the top off his pop.

"Evangeline...yours Jay?"

"Tyra's. Jaden is my middle name after my father."

"Oh okay. Tyrae." I smirk when I heard him smack his lips." What are you in school for?"

"Law. What you going for?" He look at me then bit his sandwich waiting for me to answer.

"A RN like my mommy." I smile thinking about my mother.

"LiKE My MoOMmY." He copy off of me in a girly voice."You spoiled ain't you?"

"Rotten." I smile opening a bag of chips.

"Dang now I gotta Come ten times harder."

"Nope. Just be yourself. Just know you can't buy my love with gifts and shit, all I got to do is call my parents." I shrug.

He nod his head "If you don't mind me asking what do your parents do?"

"Well my mom is a RN but she stop working about eight years ago. She said she wants to see her children grow up and not be working all the time. My dad is a professional football player and so is my uncle." I wipe the sandwich crumbs off my shorts.
