The object of my affection

Calvin

"Something is seriously wrong with that girl" I said under my breath. Lovette was a beautiful 5'3, honey brown eyed, red thick chick I meet 3 years back at my joint I own called "The House". Where she would come in every morning to get her whipped Carmel Mocha latte. You could hear her a mile away on her cellular cussing somebody out real fast. Lovette didn't play no games which attracted me to her and since then I never stopped either. I remember bumping into her while leaving the court house and all her files fell and she didn't cuss me out like I expected, she just asked me to help her and I did. Lovette was wearing a nice purple suit that fitted her to every curve of her frame. From that moment I knew why she was always loud and angry. I knew she had to be a lawyer. "You know if I didn't just win this case I would've cuss your behind out?" Lovette told me. "Well you must be having you a good day" I implied. "Yeah I am, you can say" Lovette said. "You must've had 2 whipped Carmel Mocha Lattes huh?" I asked. Lovette looked confused and finally asked "How did you know I drink those specific lattes?" "Well I own "The House" you go to every morning except Sunday's" I interjected. "oh ok well no you would know I would never get more than one a day". She said with a little smile on her face.
I would ask Lovette to go on numerous of dates with me and she'll always decline. I'll buy her things and try to give it to her every time she'll come to "The House", but she'll decline as well until one day she didn't come to The House one morning and she came when I was shutting down the shop and asked me "would you like to go with me on one of them dates you were offering me earlier last week?" "Sure, I'll love to I didn't have this planned but where would you like to go?" I was excited as hell and finally thought I broke that Great Wall of China guard she had up against me. "Just to let you know I felt real bad about declining your dates, and I didn't want to seem like an asshole" she said. "It's cool I know you're busy woman" I said as we hoped in my ride. "What you in the mood for tonight?" I asked her. "Honestly some JB rolls!" She said with joy in her voice. I didn't know what the hell those were so I played it cool and said "I know just the joint, but first let me stop by the ATM real quick". I went inside Walgreen and asked Siri where's the best JB rolls in the city, started my GPS and pulled some cash from the ATM and jetted toward the place call Siam Rice.
After about 3 hour talking and eating about 30 JB rolls she pulled her wallet out and tried to give the waiter her card. I stopped her and said "Its on me, you're my date" and she said "But I asked for the date unexpectedly". "It doesn't matter I got it boo" she smiled and then put her card up. As we walked to the car we saw an elderly man getting off a bus and helping his elderly wife do the same. "I wanna be like that" she said. "What old and wrinkly with no car?" I joked. She hit me with her little wallet-purse and said "No boy a couple and with a significant other still at the age". "Why you think otherwise?" I asked. "Because I can't fully trust men and I can't be held down like a slave" she said angrily. "I thought it was the 2000's not the 1800's" I joked again. "You think you so funny huh?" She asked me. "I mean as long as your smiling and not cussing me or any innocent bystander I'm cool with it".
And from there we remind cool neutral friends, and every time I tried to be anything more she always steered me back in my lane. Until about a year ago, one of my girls thought something more of our friendship and all hell broke loose.
