I'm Yours (Original)

Happy Thanksgiving

Cori POV

“Mom, what are you doing?” I asked taking the boiling hot water from her.

“She’s trying to cook.” Kelly said.

“Can you not? This is my first Thanksgiving with my actual family and I’d like to live through it.” I said.

“Well fine then.” She said walking out of the kitchen.

“Aunt Kelly.”

“Yes?”

“Do you know who is all coming over here today?”

“Not exactly, but I’m sure it’s just gonna be the normal crew.”

“Meaning…”

“Meaning everyone who was at the party a few months ago. Plus your little crew.”

“Ohhh okay. This should be fun.”

“Or it could be chaotic.”

“What do you mean?”

“Oh, you’ll see.”

“Cori your friends are here!” My dad screamed.

“Coming!” I yelled running out of the kitchen. “Hey girl!” I said hugging Danielle.

“What up tho?” She said.

“I was helping Auntie Kelly cook.”

“Let me go say hi to her.” She said before walking off.

“Hey baby.” Kelan said picking me up and spinning me around.

“Hey.” I said. I gave him a quick peck on the lips and he put me back down.

“I missed you.”

“You saw me two days ago.”

“Exactly my point.” He said. He gave me another quick kiss.

“Y’all stop kissing and close my damn door.” My mom said. I rolled my eyes at her and she threw the remote at my head. Thank God for fast reflexes.

“Missed me.” I said grabbing Kelan’s hand and walking off.

“Roll ‘em again and next time it’s gone be my fist!” She screamed.

I laughed quietly and kept walking until Kelan stopped. “What?” I asked turning around to face him.

“I need to talk to you.”

“What is it about?”

“Me.”

“Well can it wait until after dinner? The food is almost ready.”

“It’s important.”

“Can you hold it for like an hour? I haven’t eaten all day.” I said.

“Yeah, it can wait a bit I guess.” He said.

“Foods ready!” Danielle yelled.

“Let’s go eat. We can talk later.”

“Alright.”

“Alright! Dig in!” Momma Tina said.

“Pass me the greens.”

“Cut the Turkey Shawn.”

“Cornbread to the left.”

“Michelle don’t nobody want no damn chit lens.”

“Danm Kelly, don’t use all the hot sauce.”
