(A/N: Y'all, really? 408 reads but 1 vote? And I can't resist, I need to finish this book. So here you loves go😋)

I stared outside the window, the weather was alright, sky full of clouds. The street's were busy. You know, the usual. Brooklyn is actually a really beautiful place. But now I'm alone and I'm bored. The freakin wedding is like two days away.

The mom's and China will be here tomorrow and I'm afraid of what they have in store for me. This is really the stupidest thing I could ever do in my life. I sighed and walked away from the window and walked to the kitchen. I know, I'm always in the kitchen. Don't kill me.

I opened the fridge and got out a bottle juice. The door opened and I walked out the kitchen.

"Hey baby." Jahking came in with a couple bags. I wonder what's that.

"Hey." I said and walked over to him taking two bags. Just two. I'm tired.

I walked to the kitchen and sat them down. "What'd you buy. We bought groceries the other day."

He sat down with a small smile on his face. "It's nothing. Just somethings for you." He said and I furrowed my eyebrows. "What'd you buy?" I walked over to him and sat on his lap.

"I just said some things. Get off, lemme show you." I got up and he picked up a bag and got out a box. I sat on the table and he opened it. What was before my eyes was a necklace. With his name.

"That's beautiful." I said and he chuckled and walked over to me. "Lift yo hair." I lifted my hair and he put the necklace around my neck staring into my eyes. I was told that breaking eye contact- no I'm lying.

I smiled and looked down at it. He got out another one with my name on it. I laughed. "Really dude?" I asked and he put the necklace in my hand. "Now put this on for me." He said smiling and I put the necklace around his neck.

"Now, you can see the rest later." He gave me a kiss. "Let's talk." He sat back down on the chair and patted his lap. I got off the table and sat on his lap facing him.

"What's going on?"

"You know I love you right?"

"Yeah."

"But I'm afraid I'm not gone make the wedding." I sat back.

"What are you talking about Jahking?" He better be playing with me. Or I swear to G**.

"Yo daddy gone kill me girl." He said laughing and I smacked my teeth and slapped his chest.

"Don't play like that. You almost made me kill you, tryna leave me out of nowhere." I got up. "You gone get cut."

"Whatever. I was just joking." I walked to the doorway. "Go on and play somewhere else." I walked away hearing him laugh. He really gone make me do something.

I do love the necklace though. We got like matching necklaces. That's cool.

~~~

"Jahking, why'd you buy new clothes, do you know how many clothes I have?" I put the clothes on the bed. "You ain't had to buy those."

"Who cares?" He sat back and I sat down on the bed.

"I do. One person can't have so many clothes."

"Jazmine, stop lying and saying you have many clothes. You ain't have that much clothes."

"Jahking, don't be talking smack. I have enough clothes."

"But new clothes make you happy though." I rolled my eyes.

"Does not."

"Keep lying to yourself. I've seen how happy you are when you buy new clothes."

"Why are we talking about clothes?"

"I should ask you." I rolled my eyes threw myself on the bed. He has time to play really.

"Yo mama coming tomorrow." I sat up. Tomorrow? But I'm not prepared.

"They can't come to- wait. How do you know? They still ain't speaking to you." I said eyebrows furrowed. They ain't talking to him.

He sat on the bed next to me and smiled, shoulders lifted. China.

"Your sister." I nodded. I knew that. China can't really be mad. It would take a lot. Same goes for me. It takes a lot! A whole lot.

"Before i forget. I don't wanna pressure you into it, I want you to take your tim-"

"What are you talking about now?" I asked him putting a strand hair of behind my ear.

He laughed. "I'm talking about therapy stupid." I chuckled at my own silliness. I should know he wouldn't.

"Sorry."

He took my hands in his and put them on my lap. I looked into his eyes.

"I found a female therapist, and I think you would like her."

"Why? Cause you like her?" I caught an attitude. "Let go of me." I removed my hands from his rolling my eyes. I'm not jealous for the record.

"J, come on."

"No, you can go talk to her since you like her so much." I got up. "I'll find someone to talk to myself."

"It better not be no male." He said getting up. Yay! It's working.

"Why do you care? It's not like we gonna do anything." I walked to the door and he pushed me against the wall with his hand around my neck.

"Jahking let go." I put my hands around his arm. "You know better than to be touching on me like this." He sighed and put both his arms on my sides so I couldn't escape.

"Talk some sh** like that again." He said and I laughed. "Try me." He continued.

"What are you gonna do if I don't?"

~~~

"Okay, okay, okay." I laughed out trying to push Jahking off of me. "Stop tickling me, my stomach hurts."

"Say you're sorry." He kept on tickling me and it started to freakin hurt. But I'm not giving up.

"I didn't do anything." I screeched out. "So you...didn't talk about...some other dude, talking bout some y'all ain't gone do nothing."

"That don't mean anything." 

"Yeah it does." I laughed and I didn't laugh anymore. It hurt to much to let him keep tickling me. "Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry." I said and he stopped and threw himself across me and I huffed.

"King, you are not the lightest thing in this world. Get off, you're heavy." I breathed out and wiped my eyes.

"So you thinking about going to the therapist? I heard she's really good." He said and I sighed. I mean it's not me not wanting to go, I do wanna go, but I don't at the same time.

The thought of just sharing everything with a complete stranger really messes with me. I'm going to have to say what I'm feeling,  thinking. All that stupid ish. It messes with me so bad, so bad.

"I mean... I'll go. But it doesn't mean that it's gonna be easy talking about everything. Like it will just fly out of my mouth."

"I know some topic will be hard, hell I felt hell trying to get you to open up to me." He laughed.

"Funny." I let out another breath. Gosh, this boy is heavy!

"Jahking, I can't breath so get off me." I squirmed around and he got up and layed next to me. Now I turned around and threw myself across his stomach. He laughed.

"You have such a stunted body." I threw up a peace sign. Letting him know that I'm gonna ignore that.

I'm very much comfartable with my weight.
