All About Her

Chapter 20 : All About Her

Naomi

I grabbed my phone and walked out the apartment with Stacy. We were going out to the Brooklyn park to meet her mother and have a day out, for our last day in New York.

I still couldn't believe I was really leaving.
But I had to.
I really didn't even want to think twice over it and that was the fact.

I watched as Stacy spotted her mother and rushed to hug her as she sat on a mat facing the beautiful park.

'Mom, remember Naomi.' Stacy smiled introducing me.

'Of course. How are you?' Stacy's mom smiled hugging me.

'I'm fine. You?' I hugged back.

'Perfectly fine.' She answered pulling out.

'Glad. Ima leave y'all.' I smiled walking away to give them their privacy.

Momma had came early and of course I had to beg her to leave and let me go and that I really wasn't a baby for her to keep me from moving to Atlana. She was hurt and I felt guilty and so I promised her to come see her at least every month or so, but only if she would come once for me too. We ended it as that and she prayed for my best there.

Walking around the park, I looked to a side and there I felt my heart sink.
There I saw Tabby and I sitting next to each other and watching the sunset - I felt tears rush to me.

Suddenly I wondered why I was actually leaving ?
And what was I even doing?
I felt hurt and guilty over the call argument, I had with him.

Who was I kidding? Tabby had felt such a big spot in my heart.
He was there, and he wasn't leaving.

How much had he done for me?
Why did things have to be so short.

I missed him, I wanted him here, teasing me and calling me Baby Naomi , hugging me , telling me everything was okay. I wanted to fix things right now with him.

I pulled out my phone and called him 3 times but no answer and I felt like it was too late and he was gone and I had made the biggest of my life.

Me :Tabby, call me when you get this.
Please. We need to talk. I'm sorry,💓.

I dropped back my into my jeans and suddenly tears were running down my cheeks. I was crying.

'Hey, Naomi...,' I felt someone drag my shoulder to face them.
'Omg are you crying?' Stacy's worried and concerned face met mine.

'No, no. What is It?' I quickly wiped my tears

'Don't worry about that now, what happened?' Stacy's brows met.

I looked deep into her eyes, I didn't even know what to or how to explain to her what was wrong. I had so many things that were heaving in my heart and it seemed stuck in my throat.
Even with how I did managed to put the words together to tell her , I couldn't.
I didn't want it to seem like I was exaggerating or feel judged but that was how I felt and I couldn't help it.

"I'm...just...just overwhelmed." I swallowed.
"That's it." I sniffled everything in.

Stacy starred at me and I prayed she wouldn't bug more over it , and ask me to really tell her what it was. She paused and observed me quietly, as if trying to read me before she smiled softly and pulled me into her arms for a hug.
I realised how much I need that hug, when our bodies collided making me close my eyes and let and take in a deep breath.

"I know it's all so crazy, but I promise it will be okay." Stacy comforted, patting my back as I let out the breath.

"I know." I smiled as we let go.
