Nadirah
I just got off of work and I made my way inside of Smoothie King and placed my order I stood back and waited on my order.

"Nadirah."

I looked up seeing Roman and instantly got annoyed and not even wanting my smoothie anymore.

"Leave me alone."

"Nadirah please hear me out."

"No."

"Look I'm planning on leaving my wife for you."

"Wow."

"Hey babe," some random guy spoke.

"Hey baby," I spoke playing along.

"You good."

"Yeah I'm good."

"So this is what we on now Nadirah."

"Ain't you married you need to be worried about your wife and not my girl."

Roman nodded and walked away the girl called my order and I walked up and got it while thanking her.

Me and the guy walked out of Smoothie King and I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding.

"Thank you for stepping in."

"No need to thank me I saw the annoyance all in your body language and I had to intervene I'm Marcus by the way."

"Nadirah," we shook hands.

"You work at a hospital?"

"No I work at Gentle Birth Experiences."

"As a midwife?"

"No as an RN."

"Oh okay cool."

"Can I have your number," I asked.

"I was just about to ask you for your number."

"Great minds think alike."

We exchanged numbers.

"Call me when you get home."

"I will have a good rest of the day Marcus."

"You too Nadirah."

We hugged then Marcus walked away I smiled and unlocked my car doors to my Tesla and got in.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love my parents and I'm happy that they let me stay with them for a while but now it's time for me to get my own place again and after searching for the perfect place I found a myself a new townhouse and it's not going to be ready until the first week of August since it's still under construction for renovations.

Me and Marcus have been texting since I've made it back home and I'm not rushing to be in a relationship all I want is a friend right now love will come later. My phone rung I looked down seeing that it was Marcus FaceTiming me I smiled and answered his call. I already asked him was he married, engaged or had a girlfriend and he know told me that he didn't and I'm skeptical on his answers because I've been lied to before the last thing I need is to be the side chick all over again.

Omari
I walked up to the reception desk and the woman looked up at me and smiled.

"Hello do you have an appointment," she asked.

"Yeah I'm here to see Dr. Wynn I'm Omari Beckham."

"Okay I'll let her know that you're here have a seat."

I nodded and walked over to the chairs and sat down in one after talking with Seiko we made the decision to come and see her therapist together and I'm a little late but I'm here. I kissed Seiko on the cheek.
