Traciyon-
"You do know that's ya mom right?" I say to Reese as he kissed my Aunt and Godmother on the cheek and then gets back in my car. "Yeah nigga, alright now Lorry don't be over here having to much fun I seen them shoes" Reese says with his head out of the window, nodding towards the house " Kyreese don't play with me ..and you either!" They laugh as she walks back towards the house and I pull off in the direction of my house. " I actually need to swing back to campus right quick, you mind?" Reese asks noticing where we're going "Nah wassup tho, why we goin back?" " I met this girl and she working today ...I wanna see wassup wit ha" "you??? Ok but like what you mean?" I say shocked the look on his face doesn't look familiar I think my boy got a crush " whatchu mean what I mean ima ask shorty out" "oh for real" " nah fa fake.." I just shook my head still surprised. Reese is my older cousin and best friend, if it wasn't for him living here, going to school here, and of course my parents divorce I'd still be in Houston.
About 15 minutes later ...
We're back at our school walking into the student center the food court is to your right and all the other festivities are on the left or depending on what it is it's upstairs. We go to the bookstore kiosk in the foodcourt "what's good Aaliyah" Reese says to this beautiful light skinned girl "Hey Kyreese" she smiled as she came from behind the counter and hugged Reese. They walked away from the kiosk to talk in private for a min then came back all smiles and shit. "So I'll see you Saturday" "yes Reese" Aaliyah says all shy trying to hide her smile "Alright ima hit you up later" he says smiling showing her his grill but this is where I got confused cause I've never seen it Reese walks up to her lifts her chin and kisses her in front of everybody. Aaliyah looks up at him shocked then starts blushing as she hugs him hiding her face in his jacket he wraps his arms around her then kisses her again before sending her back to work. I'm standing off to the side looking shocked and confused at the same time when he walks towards me I smirk and laugh as I dap him up and we start to walk towards the exit doors ..
"So that's why you wanted to come back that's your girl?" I say as we walked back to my car "As of just now yes officially" Reese says with a smile on his face that dares me to comment but I don't cause all I can say is "you did good" and nod my head "as cool and as fine as liyah is I did more than good" he says looking down at his phone grinning at the picture of them on his Lock Screen. " wait what's that?" I say reaching for his phone as we make our way back to house " this the picture we took on our first link" " oh you kept that part low let me see nigga" Lu turns his phone and shows the picture of him and Aaliyah in front the movie theater "y'all look good together man" " but what about you man what you got going?" "not to much I just been in my books for real and I told you about the girl from my class ....
I pulled up in my driveway as my phone started ringing " it's my pops, I'll meet you inside" I tell Reese and toss him the garage key so he can go inside. " wassup pops?" I say answering my phone, we chopped it up for a little while about the new house, school, work, and I even told him about Kae, I brought up my mom and his voice changed then his voice changed again when he said "and son tell your mother I'll be home in the morning I love you both" and with that said he hung up I don't know what's about to happen exactly my parents can be unpredictable at times.
As I walked in the house I smelled food by the time I made it to the kitchen I figured out it was some type of seafood, I round the corner and see my mom and Reese were seated at the table with big bags in front of them "boils" I thought to myself " hey ma" I say kissing her cheek and taking my jacket off "hey baby, your food is in the oven" "thank you" I go to wash my hands and I hear them go back to their conversation " so auntie what should I do?" "Take her to a gallery and dinner or better yet I have a friend who's having an open house Friday take her there and then to lunch" "an open house? What type of date is that?" I chime in with furrowed eyebrows my mom just smiles as I walk back to the table with my food and gets settled "where the two of you get dressed up pretend to be a newly wed couple or potential buyers and go see a nice house and play plan out your future together or your lives in the house" " this ain't no lifetime movie ma" " look me and your father used to do it back in the day it was cute" "it was corny" Reese says with chuckle "oh and speaking of dad he said to tell you he'll be home in the morning" my mom didn't say anything she just froze for a second, squinted her eyes, then went back to eating her food me and Reese saw it looked at each other the went back to eating but dinner was kinda quite after that.
