"Sweetheart," she said as she cupped her hands around my face. "I know at your age it's hard to accept but you are who you are. You can't change it so... only thing you can do is accept it."

"But what if I can change it," I said lowly.

She looked at me sternly before saying, "trying to chase a dream that isn't real is only going to hurt you. Stop trying to pretend you're somebody you're not."

"Naya... earth to Naya?!" Briana said as she tried to get my attention

"Sorry..." I said.

"Somethin' on your mind?" She asked before I looked up at her.

"Y-yeah actually... you know that guy I was talking about from the club?" I said as Briana fed J'Michael.

"Uh yeah, what about him?" She asked.

"So I ran into him the other day at the store and he asked me out," I said before she looked at me with a wide smile.

"Okay and what'd you say?" She asked.

"I told him I'd have to think about it," I replied.

"What'd he say?" She asked.

"He gave me his number," I replied.

"Okay now this is the part where you tell me that you texted him and now you're going on a date tomorrow," she said before I grimaced.

"No..."

"Naya what the fuck is wrong with you? Do you insist on bein' alone for the rest of your life?" Briana said.

"I'm twenty-one, I'm not gonna run off and get married and have kids. I have plenty of time," I said.

"Yeah well tomorrow isn't promised," she said. "I say text him and tell him when you're free. One date won't hurt. If you don't like it then you don't have to do it again, but what harm could it do?"

"I don't know..."

"And then for you guys to meet again I mean it has to be fate," she said.

"Or he's stalking me," I said.

"Naya, you have to be worth stalking in order to be stalked," she said before I stuck up my middle finger.

"Okay well what should I text him?" I asked as I pulled out my phone.

"Oh you're doing it now?" She asked as she hurried to stand beside me. "Ouu 'my future'? Did he put that?"

"You know he did," I replied.

"Okay well just text hey for now," she said.

"Shit he read it," I said.

"Well don't sit there lookin', get out! Abort!" Briana said before I swiped out of the message.

"They grow up so fast," Briana said as she fake cried.

"Shut up. If this date is trash I'm blamin' you," I said.

"Me?!" Briana said acting shocked as she put her hand over her chest.

"Yes you, always tryna play like a hopeless romantic and shit knowin' damn well niggas ain't shit," I said.

"Whatever you say, Naya," Briana said before I rolled my eyes.
