I walked over to the couch and hopped over to watch some television. Then I turned to see Lydia knocking on the patio door. I ran up to open the door. "Morning" I said as I walked back toward the couch. She walked in only a little inch. "What happened?" I asked. She smiled and looked down at my crotch. I chuckled and went up to my room to throw some shorts on. "Hey so what brings you here?" I asked as I poured another bowl of cereal. "That's what you're eating?" she asked walking over to the kitchen. "Yeah" I said looking at the bowl. She looked through my kitchen. "You don't got no batter" she said. "I got pancakes in the fridge" I replied. "This?" she asked dumping the spoiled pancakes in the garbage. "Oh" I replied walking over to the couch. "May you take me to the market?" she asked softly. "Ugh I wanna watch The Parkers" I complained. "Okay I understand" she said sadly. "Ugh get my keys" I said dreadfully as I headed for the garage. She excitedly ran toward the car. "I need some eggs, milk, brown sugar, and so on" she said as she grabbed a cart. When we got to the cashier she kept smiling at us. "Morning" she said as she scanned the items. "Morning" Lydia replied. "I love it" the old lady whispered. "Milk?" I asked looking at her as if she was insane.
"I just love seeing a happily young black couple" she replied. "Oh no we're not...nooo we're just....just...homies" I said stuttering. "Yeah homies" she said smiling exposing her dimples that seem deep enough to drink from. She placed her hair in a messy bun. "Oh that's to bad y'all compliment each other so well" she said breaking my thoughts. We both laughed and went on. When we arrived back to my crib we started making the batter. "Come on weakling stir" Lydia said as she made some omelettes. I took my engagement ring off to mix the batter better. "Ready" Lydia called from inside the kitchen. "Smells good" I said grabbing a plate. "I can cook" I added as I sat down. "With my help" she replied sitting across me. After we ate we watched some television. I heard the front door open. "Hey bab..." Raven said kissing me. "Hey this is Lydia" I said introducing her. "Hey" Lydia said stretching her hand out for a shake. She took off her versace shade and called me over to the kitchen. "What now?" I asked knowing she was going to complain. "Who is she?" she snapped. "Lydia. I said that" I replied. "I ain't never heard of this Lydia" she said with a sharp tongue. "She a friend" I explained. "What I said about brining these females over to my place?" she snapped. "Oh my fucking gosh. Raven this is really not imperative right now" I fried back. "She's out by tomorrow morning before I leave" she whispered. "I hired her for some help around the place" I explained. She eyed me and walked upstairs. I came back out to see Lydia gone. I found her in the shack packing. "What's going on?" I asked. "I heard her. I'm not a home wrecker. "You can stay" I said. "Only if you help around the place" I explained. "Sure" she said wiping her eyes. I gave her a dab and went upstairs. "Okay bye...bye" Raven said quickly hanging up. "Hey" I said eyeing her. She ignored me and climbed in bed. "Come on" I said snuggling behind her. She grabbed my hand and fell asleep. The next day I found Raven gone with a note on the bed. I ignored it and went downstairs. "Morning" Lydia said cleaning some dishes. "What you made?" I asked. "A little something" she said sweeping the floor.After some time I helped her make supper. "That's not how you cut onions" she said grabbing the knife. She rapidly started chopping it into tiny bits.
"That was good" I said throwing the dishes in the sink. "You got water on me" she said flicking some water on me. I grabbed a handful and threw some on her. Then we started going back and forth. "Stwap" she said as I pressed her against the wall. We were there for a moment feeling each other heartbeat. "Ugh I got to go" she said leaving. A few minutes later Raven came in. "Supper on the table" I said. "No my head is killing me" she said walking upstairs. I grabbed a fork and took a bite of the spaghetti. I sat there for awhile just thinking. The next few days Raven started staying late. One night it was raining hard. I layed in bed squirming to find a position that will help me. I heard a loud bang downstairs. I went to check it out. I saw a shadow sneaking in. I grabbed my 9mm from the box and cocked it. I turned on the light and screamed "Freeze." "It's me" Lydia said as she jumped. "What you doing?" I asked placing the gun on the counter. I needed some extra sheets. "Oh" I said sitting on the couch. "Wanna watch some TV with me? I asked as she was walking toward the patio. "Well it is raining" she said grinning. She closed the patio door and sat on the couch. "Oh it's showing Terminator 2" Lydia said jumping. She opened her covers and told me to join. Her big breast pressed against my arm and I felt her breathing. So calm and soothing. Also, the rain tapping against the window pane made me sleepy. "I hate sleeping alone" I whispered before I K.O.
