"Travis POV"

Next Day

So as you all know by now I'm Travis Howard. I play for the Lakers and I'm 29 years old. I am the son of Jacob and Evelyn Howard. I have an older brother and a baby sister.

As a kid growing up my dad always told me to go for what the heart wants, and I swear the moment I laid eyes on her she was everything I wanted.

Taraji is who I want and I'm going to work hard to get her and hopefully make her a part of my life.

I decided to shoot my shot and I'm finally ready for a new relationship after my last one.

My ex fiancée was the love of my life and she died about 4 years ago.

Long story short she died in a car accident and I'm still healing from the loss of her. I really don't want to talk about that though.

As I sat on the couch in my living room I called my mom and she picked up on the fourth ring.

*call connected*

Travis : Hello? Mama?

Mama : Hey baby, why you calling me this early?

Travis : Just letting you know I'll be home soon. Coach says next game isn't till 2 weeks in Detroit so I'm on a break right now and I'm coming back home.

Mama : That's great baby. I miss you so much. We watched the game you were terrific.

Travis : Thanks mama, I also gotta tell you about someone I met down here. She's really special and I think you'd like her.

Mama : Really? I can't wait to hear all about her baby.

Travis : In due time mama, I'll be on the jet first thing in the morning.

Mama : okay baby, let me know when you land.

Travis : okay ma, I love you. Bye.

Mama : I love you too baby boy, bye. Mwah.

*end of call*

I ended the call then checked if Taraji replied. She did.

Taraji ❤ : Hey I'm sorry for not replying earlier on. I'd love to have dinner with you just let me know what time. 💕

Travis : Text me the address and I'll see you at 7?

Taraji : I'll drop my location and 7 is great. 😊

Travis : Alright then gorgeous I'll see you later. 😘

Taraji : okay then...❤

I looked down at my watch that read 07:23 am and groaned. I can't wait for dinner tonight.

Taraji is such a chilled person to be around. She's drop dead gorgeous and she's got a good head on her shoulders.

She knows the difference between work and play. I live a independent women. And she plays hard to get too. I like that.

I tossed my phone next to me then switched the channel to ESPN.
