I sit around the table surrounded by my sisters as they tease me about the person I am dating who they don't even know. "Who is it Toni" Tamar asks popping her lips all up in my face and I roll my eyes at her. "I don't understand why you guys can't just know that I am seeing someone and I am happy" I say before stuffing some of the delicious salmon in my mouth. "Because you being seeing this secret person for a whole damn year and act like you can't tell us about it" Traci says making me huff but before I can speak my best friend, Janet, walks in with a big smile on her face.
"Hello ladies" she says kissing everyone on the cheek before coming to me and nudging my shoulder with her hand, "hey lil head" she says making me roll my eyes as the girls laugh. "Hey J, sit down I ordered your favorite pasta for you" I tell her and she thanks me as she sits down beside me. "So Janet since you are Tonis best friend I'm sure you know who she is dating" Towanda says making me chuckle. "I didn't even know she was seeing someone girl spill?" Janet says and I got her arm. "Ouch you feisty midget!" She says dramatically as she clutch her arm. "Oh stop being a baby it doesn't hurt that bad and stop feeding into them" I scold her as she pouts. "Obviously this person isn't blowing your back out or that attitude would be gone" Tamar comments. "They are doing that and more in bed, on the couch, on the kitchen table, hell even the living room table" I say listing where my love and me have made love and the girls gag playfully making me laugh.
"Janet I think your nasty is rubbing off on my sister" Traci says. Janet chuckles as she nudges me, "I have known Tone for nearly twenty years, trust me she has been nasty say before she met me" she says and the girls laugh as I slap Janets arm again. "No but seriously Toni who is it?" Janet asks looking at me with curiosity in her eyes. "Not telling you" I say sticking my tongue out playfully at her and she flicks it lightly with her finger making me giggle. "Oh is it that fine, chocolate, packed and stacked man who be sending you flowers everyday?" Trina asks making my eyes widen. I told her that in private! "What?!" Tamar and Wanda asks. "Flowers?" Janet questions looking at me and I avoid her intense gaze. "That was one time a few months ago and he only sent me those because I had song at a wedding for his baby sister who also happens to be Kenny's god daughter, and I am not going with him" I clarify calming everyone down.
"Mhmm, what about your neighbor who you go running with in the morning?" Traci says making me sigh as everyone looks at me. "My neighbor is a happily married woman with her wife who also runs with us" I say raising a single eyebrow as everyone groans in frustration except Janet who is busy eating her pasta the waiter brought out a few minutes ago along with the rest of our food. "Well how about-" Wanda is about to ask but I cut her off. "Can we please stop with this guessing game and eat I promise I will tell you guys when the time is right" I say looking at them with pleading eyes. "Ugh fine we will revisit this another time, now on to you Ms. Jackson" Tamar says and Janet shifts in her chair looking at a smirking Tamar. "Oh Lord" she says, sighing in defeat...
