The Key to my Pain

Aaliyah

10:46 a.m.

The bright light from my phone made me groan as I felt a slight headache approaching. Soon my tastebuds started to water as breakfast food filled my room.

I sluggishly made my way to the kitchen. My mom was at the stove flipping a pancake as I sat down at the table.

"Good morning Aaliyah"

"Good morning"

The steamy plate of pancakes, sausage patties, eggs and grits was laid right in front of me.

"I seen you went out last night" She said pouring some orange juice, placing it in front of me

"Yes...how was your night?" I said quickly changing the subject.

She smiled and sat at the table sitting her plate down. "It was a little rocky, but Mia had a safe delivery"

My mom was a OB-GYN, so she always busy with work and never at home. I use to hate that as a child but as I got older I came to terms with it.

I kissed her cheek before returning back to my room. I threw myself on my bed checking my phone.

Naomi🔗: Bitchhhh it was good, I didn't know lightskins get down like that

I laughed at her silly self. 5% appeared across my phone, I searched all over my bed and floor looking for my clutch which had my charger in it. I couldn't find it.

Rethinking about last night I'm pretty sure I left it at the club. Shit! Not caring that it's noon and nobody would probably be there. I threw on a loose tee, tights and my slides. I made my way to the club.

As I pull up to the club, it looks like nobody was here as I thought. Me also not caring again, I got out the car and made my way to the building.

I knocked on the door, hoping somebody would come. I looked at my phone to see if Naomi texted back, because I could've left it in her car.

"How may I help you?" A deep voice said, I quickly turned around. When we made eye contact, a smile came across his face. It what was weird but I brushed it off.

"Do you work here"

"Yea but more like run it" he let off a small chuckle "Is something wrong?"

"Umm... yea I think I left my clutch here last night"

He walked around me and unlock the door. I walked with him towards the bar. The club looked different empty, it was super spacious and nice.

"Red right?" He completely caught me off guard, I guess he could tell by face "my bad...I was kinda watching you last night"

"Why?" I sat down being curious, I didn't notice anybody watching me.

"You caught my eye" he said continuously as he looked around the bar. I really looked at him. He was sexy, he had chocalate smooth skin with a few visible tattoos. His waves was on swim and let's not talk his height.
