Isabelle's pov

**next day**

Bo and I just left the spa. I feel so relaxed, I don't know why I didn't do this since. I need to speak with my baby girl. I pull out my phone
Bo:"who are you calling?"
I:"Ray. I need to speak with Adey"
Bo:she laughs "I thought you said you'll not call, something about not disturbing their bond time"
She says in her thick accent. Sometimes it's hard to understand what she's saying. I roll my eyes and dial Ray
**phone rings**
Ade:"hello mama"
I:"my baby! How're you?"
Ade:"I'm fine mama, how're you?"
I:"I'm fine too baby girl. Have you eaten? What did you eat?"
Ade:"yes mama. Mashed potatoes and steak mama. It was yummy!"
I laugh at her over enthusiasm when talking about food.
I:"sorry I didn't talk to you before bed baby. I lost track of time."
Ade:"its okay mama, I'm not mad."
I:"thank you sweetie. Where's your dad?"
I hear her calling Ray. She hands him the phone
R:"hello"
I:"hey Good day"
R:"how're you?"
I:"I'm good. Just wanted to erm say hi. How's it going with Adey? Did she give you any trouble?"
R:"oh thanks. Very well. Oh no she's been a complete angel."
I:"oh okay then. See you tomorrow then. Bye.
R:" yeah. Bye"
I hang up. What is with the palpitations? It was just a normal conversation between two people co-parenting,Nothing more right?
Bo:"whats got you thinking?"
I:"it's nothing. Let's go, you're helping me get ready. What am I supposed to do on a date, it's been a while."
Bo:"breathe in, breathe out"
I do as I'm told. Bo has this obsession with yoga. But this isn't helping, but I dare not voice my thoughts out else we'll have a full yoga session on the curb.
Bo:"good! Now. It's not a big deal. You just be yourself, okay?"
I:"oh just tell me who the person is already!"
Bo:"not a chance! Don't ruin the fun. Come on mate, we need to get you ready"
I roll my eyes. We uber to my house.
It's just past 4 in the evening and we're still debating on what I should wear.
I'm supposed to be at the restaurant by 7, so there's still enough time.
**few hours later**
I'm finally ready. We finally decided on a pink body con long sleeved dress. I decided to wear a wig. No natural makeup today, I go all out a gold cut crease, nude lips,contour and highlight. You know the full package. I'm not desperate or anything, I just had a lot of time to get ready and I didn't have anything else to do, so while Bo and I were catching up on each others life I just went with the full package. I wear  gold heel sandals,and a gold clutch.
Bo walks me to the front porch where my uber awaits. She gives me a hug and walks back inside. She's staying over, something about wanting to be here to hear all the juicy details while it's still fresh.

I get to the restaurant and outside the restaurant I see Jordan, he's one of Bo's friends, we all hang out together for lunch and sometimes dinner. Omg! It's Jordan he's the date. No way!
Jo:"hey isa"
I:"Jordan. Hey"
Jo:"let's go in."
He opens the door for me and we get our reservation and walk to our table. In no time we order our food.
I:"wow... I can't believe this, why didn't you just say something, to me?"
Jo:"I'm sorry. I just get so nervous around you. I've had a crush on you for a while now. I didn't think you'll want to be with me"
I:"Omg Jordan I didn't know. You know I have a kid, are you okay with that?"
Jo:"you know I love Adeya! I'm more than okay with that."
We laugh and our food is finally here. We dig in.
**phone rings**
Why is Ray calling.
I:"hello"
R:"hey Isabelle, its Adeya. She was burning up, I'm at the hospital with her"
I:"what?! How? What hospital? I'm on my way"
Omg Omg Omg... My phone beeps and its a text from Ray, the name and address of the hospital.
Jo:"what's wrong?"
I:"I'm sorry Jordan we'll have to do this another time. I don't know what's wrong with Adeya, her dad just called he said they're at the hospital. I have to go"
Jo:"let me take  you"
I:"you don't have to..."
Jo:"I want to, come on let's go"
