*Kamani's POV*

(3 months later)

"Mani, what ever happened to that one girl you were messing around with?" my big bro, Mante, asked me. He's home from the army and we were catching up.

"Who? Sasha? Man, qe been over." I laughed shaking my head. I started thinking about how Sasha fucked me over. Fuck her.

"But uh.. you'll never guess who I've ran into a little while back." I looked at him. He didn't say anything. I smirked when he didn't guess.

"Who?"

"Syd." I took another gulp of vodka.

"Wait.. Sydnei Sydnei?! Your best friend? The Sydnei you was in love--" I cut him off.

"Yeah, yeah. Her." He raised his eyebrows up while his face spread into a wide smile.

"Really? Damn, you was crazy about her. She stay here?" he asked. I rolled my eyes because I didn't want to discuss the past.

"Yeah, dude. She does. But she's.." I drifted off. My brother frowned and put his soda down. He doesn't drink. I wish I could be more like him in that department. Whenever I get depressed, I drink.

"What's wrong, baby sis? I know that look." he scooted closer to me. I leaned back into the couch and sighed.

"She's involved with someone, Mante." I closed my eyes as I sighed deeply once again.

It's been 3 months since I last seen her. She told me we had to stop seeing eachother, period. That shit hurt me so badly but I respected her wishes. Because I love her.

"Like she has a girlfriend?"

"Had. They broke up a few months ago. Around the time we last talked.." I explained to Mante.

"Why did they break up...?" he asked. I didn't respond. I mean, I feel like it was partially my fault but..

"They were fighting and arguing a lot." I said. Which was true but I had a good feeling Lanee knew that I fucked her girlfriend at her house.

"So, do y'all like hang out?" he took a sip of his soda. I shook my head.

"Why not?"

"She told me she thinks we shouldn't be around each other right now. That she didn't want to fuck up anymore with her ex." I said, now ashamed.

"Why would she tell you... Wait, Mani you didn't fuck her while she was still with ol' girl did you?"

"No. Well, not intentionally. Like I don't know Mante. We... she.. yo she was too tempting. Like I don't know what the fuck came over me." I stood up and put my hands in my hands.

Mante burst into laughter and I tried not to smirk.

"My baby sis out here fucking up happy homes." he joked.

"Actually, their shit was already fucked up before I came along." I hissed back at him.

"Damn, word? So you just planted ya lil seed in poor ol' Syd. Now she somewhere with a broken heart."

I paced back and forth looking at my phone. Truth is, I miss her. Like so much. I'd marry her if I knew she'd be faithful to me, through thick and thin. Since the day we reunited, I fell in love with her all over again. And the chemistry between us when we're together, everything just tends to flow.

"Why don't you call her?" Mante asked walking to my kirchen.

"Hell no. I'm not gonna do that." I quickly said that putting my phone down before I actually did.

"Why not? You miss her. I can tell just by how antsy you got." he said standing in the walk-way of the kitchen. Before I could answer, the doorbell rung.

"I'll get it." he walked to the door. I picked my phone ck up and opened the last text I sent to Syd. I love you, girl. I wish you'd see that.

"Ahemmm." Mante cleared his throat. I looked up and standing there, looking ever so beautifully, was Sydnei. My fucking lovebug.

I dropped my phone and she came rushing over to me. I grabbed her and as soon as she was in my grasp, I picked her up. She started crying and to my surpise, so was I.

"I love you, Kamani. And Im sorry." she said against my neck.

"I love you too, Syd. More than you'll ever know. You told me to never leave again, and I'm here. Now don't you go disappearing on me." I let her go but held her hands.

She loooked up at me and I cupped her chin, bringing her face into mine. I kissed her passionately.

"Promise me one thing." I whispered to her.

"What?" she spoke softly, her eyes never leaving my gaze.

"Say yes, when I ask you to marry me." She opened her mouth to say something but nothing came out.

Then she smiled and nodded her head and I pulled her into a bear hug again. Glancing up at Mante, he was grinning. He winked and I gave him a slight nod. I won't let you get away, this time Ms. Sydnei Harris.

Oops. I mean.. Syndei Starks. ;)
