Wait? No! It could couldn't be what I thought it was,could it?

I starred at the little black box. Mind running and heart rate at 1000.

"...trell? What is this?" I eyed the box again. Even though it was like 6 other people in the room it felt as if it was just us two. It also seemed as if the room was shrinking and it was getting very difficult to breathe and hot.

"It's a box. I want you to know what no matter what we go through, whatever and whoever try's to tear us apart that I,Latrell will stay by your side. I will always do my best to keep you happy and my hardest to keep you safe. So I wanna give you this." He pushed the box to me. " now this is only box one"

I looked at it like he had HIV in the palm of his hand. Should I take ? What was it? We haven't been on the best of terms till recently. This could be a get back,or he could've been genuine and from the heart.

"Damn girl if you don't open the box I'll do it for you!" Mama butted in.

"I—Trell" I was flabbergasted. I didn't know what to do.

When I went to lift open the box a loud obnoxious fire alarm sounded followed by an announcement from the hospital staff. Everybody rushed to get the stuff for the newborn then we were outside within 100 ft from the building.

When I looked a Trell I thought I was a hint of pain flash in his eyes but that was soon replaced with worry. What's going on?

After a two long hours we had finally received an all clear to re enter the hospital. It was a small fire that didn't do any life threatening damage. The boys left a while ago. They said they had to handle something but Jah went to get food and stuff.They had already aired out the building and fixed the rooms.

"Ohh girl!! What was in it? I couldn't see over here." Kylie asked,gleaming with excitement.

"I don't know. I didn't have a chance to open it." He couldn't have been trying to propose,he wasn't on one knee. So I was good on that note.
I was. No,he could've pulled what Satin from 'Sparkle' did with a picture of a ring folded in a box,but he got money.

"Earth to best friend" Kylie yelled at me
"Huh?" I asked.

"Oh chile" mama laughed.

"Anytwaayyyss" I pushed that whole situation to the back of my mind.  "Trell is coming over tonight.
Any tips?" I smirked

"Aww shit!! Bestfraaann" was all I hard throughout the room.

"This is what you gotta do...."

"Pussy" these black ass niggas will and ain't ever gonna let this shit go.

"You had damn near two hours to give it to her. TWO DAMN HOURS" Kenny yelled from the backseat. "Pussy ass"

"You gone have my sister going crazy you ass" Ray said.

"Yoooo yo yo yo!!" Travis yelled. "This is some shit L." What fucking now?

It was pushing 7 and we was still a good 35 minutes out. I was doing my daily check up. Making sure niggas wasn't on my block.
