Sugar Baby

four

Today was Tuesday and this past weekend, Vicky, Ti, and I have all officially went on our first sugar baby date. We haven't talked about them in detail yet so I'm probably going to ask about them during lunch.

"So how did you guys first sugar baby encounter go?"

Ti fills her cup with lemonade and tea saying, "This nigga I'm talking to now is so cool. His name is Mark and before this, I really thought these people would be creeps but he was really down to earth. How did yours go Rettá?"

"She's ok, I just have to get to know her more."

"Just okay? You said the exact same thing right after the date! We need more details," Vicky says.

Laughing, I reply, "There's nothing more to say! We ate, talked small talk, she paid me, and that's it." Sipping my drink I throw in, "She is getting a divorce though."

"Wait a minute now, we not just going to roll past the tea you just gave us. So you're telling me she's going on sugar baby dates while in the middle of a divorce?"

"I guess? She didn't say much about it and I wasn't going to pressure her. To be honest, I think she's doing this to take her mind off things."

"Mmm, wow." Ti turns towards Vicky and asks, "Vicky what about you?"

"My experience wasn't good but that money was. He was like 90 years old and a war veteran. His stories were so boring and I'm just sitting there like...when is he going to shut the fuck up."

Ti and I laughed as Vicky was getting mad about the situation. "That's no fair you guys get the cool people."

"How much did he at least give you though?"

"$600."

"Damnnnnn, that's a lot for the first date!"

"It is. Then again he told me he doesn't have a family and doesn't know what to do with the money. He s-"

Vicky was interrupted as a guy comes up to our table handing us a flyer.

"What's up with it, can I get y'all lovely ladies to take a quick boomerang with our party flyer for tonight?"

Before we could say anything, Ti agrees quickly saying, "Yessss!!! I look alright don't I?"

"Yea you look good mamas."

"Oooo, don't call me that neow dada!"

He begins laughing and we stand up together to pose for the boomerang. Sometimes I wonder about Ti...

"I got it. Y'all make sure to don't miss our first Nupe house party tonight. Shit gone be too live."

He leaves the flyer on our table and walks away. In high school, Brooklyn used to go to the college parties here a lot and always told me the crazy stories. This could be a good way to see what the hype is all about and to get out my room.

"I think we should go. We don't have shit else to do."

Vicky shakes her head and chimes in saying, "I'm going to have to pass on this one. I got 3 tests tomorrow back to back."

"Dang, already?"

"Yea, that's what being a Biology Pre-Med major does to you."

"Ti what about you?"

"Yea I'll go, but I'll probably be with some more friends, they said they going."

"Can I ride with you? I have gas money i-"

"Yea you can ride with us. We planned on calling an Uber. Wear something cuteeee. We taking pictures."

"Thanks and alright.
