The following evening I was setting up at DJ Khaled's event I had put together.  I was so busy that day I hadnt gotten to called August as yet.

I felt my phone vibrate and unlocked it seeing another message from Dawn.

Dawn: have you called him yet??

Me: not yet. Told you I was busy all day and I dont even have his #!

Dawn: quit making excuses and ask Wiz...he was @ his party after all.

Me: ok ok

I rolled my eyes before leaving the main area and heading to the ladies room. I scrolled through my contacts before finding Wiz's and dialing. After 2 rings he answered

"Wats poppin kaela Kaelurrrr" he answered joyfully as always

I smiled, " im good wiz man. But listen I kinda needed someone's phone from you "

"Yea no problem. Whose?"

"Your boy August." I said before looking around to be sure no one was in earshot.

He giggled, " sure homegirl"

He took a few seconds before giving me August's digits.

" got it...thanks wiz" I said after finishing entering the phone # and saving it.

"No biggie kaelur"

We said our goodbyes before I looked down at the saved # and dialing it.

I felt a bit nervous as the phone rang. It rang and rang until it eventually went to voicemail. I sighed as a young woman came into the bathroom. I waited for her to leave before trying again, but still no luck.

I shook my head leaving the bathroom and texted Dawn telling her it wasnt answering.

Dawn: you sure you got the # correct?

I thought about what she said and decided to be sure so went up to Khaled's area and confirm it with him.

"Here she is! She the best!!" He said to his squad as I approached. They all raised their champagne glasses and clapped for me.

"Whats up my party planner?" Khaled asked placing an arm around my shoulder.

"I wanted to ask you if you got August Alsina's number actually. "

"Yeah..I had my people get it for me since I wanna get him on a track" he responded pulling out his iphone.

"There" he said pointing to the screen. I pulled out my phone and confirmed we had the same number.

"Why the hell aint he answering then " I said more to myself.

"Yeah, same for me. I think he dont answer unknown #s since I been trying for days....think imma have to go thru his management" khaled explained.

Oh great.  I thought to myself.

"Aight. Well thanks. You guys got enough champagne? " I said to him

"Baby more than enough!" He said opening his arms and nodding at me.

I chuckled to myself. He was a bit cheesy but khaled was a sweetheart nontheless.

"Good. Imma go check on some stuff downstairs" I told him before leaving.

As I walked down I saw my assistant Marcy using a little walkie talkie to communicate with the security about a little mishap outside. I yawned as I came up to her.

"Tired already boss?" She asked in her cuban accent.

I nodded whilr still yawning. " yeah can barely stay up lately" I replied her not getting into the real reason I was so tired.

"Oh, Ace Hood told me to ask you to come over for a drink on him" she said pointing in his direction.

"No thanks Marce, im off the alcohol for a while....not after how wasted I got at Wiz's party"

She laughed a little. "I understand. Well if you want to get home and get some rest, I'll hold down the fort here" Marcy offered

I smiled being really grateful since I was super exhausted and I had a party tomorrow night as well.

As I left for my car I decided to try August one more time. "To hell with this" I mumbled ending the call which went to voicemail again.

As soon as I picked it up, the number called again

"You gon answer that?" Sneak asked walking passed me.

I shook my head "fuck no...prolly some groupie who got a hold of my phone"

I rejected the call before walking towards my dressing room.
