to Long Island. We talked and laughed about the evening’s events the entire ride home. It was somewhere around 6:40 AM when I walked through the door, and exhausted. I walked in the kitchen and stripped butt naked in the kitchen. I threw my clothes down the basement stairs and let Hobbs out. Then I showered and jumped in the bed. I had to go into the office that afternoon and set my alarm for one-thirty. I was on my way into the office when the receptionist called me on my cell phone and advised me that there were no changes to my schedule. So I didn’t have to rush into the office. I had to finish up the final touches for my boss’s surprise party along with some odds and ends. By 6 PM, I was ready to collapse from exhaustion when I decided to call it quits. Halfway home, Ann called. She had just gotten off the phone with Hassan and was reluctant to share the info so I did a full court press on her and got the 4-1-1. She hemmed and hawed a bit then finally came with it. “Don’t get mad, girl. He said that you’re not his type, I’m sorry.” “You’re sorry for what? We met; we enjoyed each other’s company over a late morning breakfast, that’s all. That’s okay; I had fun with Hassan and his friends, and it ended there. Don’t sweat it!” I replied. I still have my memories and broke out into a big smile. We changed the subject laughed about something else. Midway through our conversation my phone beeped, and I clicked over to the other line.
It was Sean. “Hey girl, are you home?” I laughed. “Not yet I replied. Where are you, I asked? I’m two exits away, why?” “I’ll meet you at your house. If you don’t mind, I’ll let myself in, I need to vent a little and get this shit off my chest. I need to tell you what happened when I went to family court the other day.”
“Damn, my soon-to-be ex-wife is a real bitch!” Sean yelled. “I’m so fucking pissed off; I just need to sit down and talk and get this shit off my chest.” By the time I got off the phone with Ann, I was pulling into my driveway. As I walked up the steps, Sean opened my front door holding a chilled glass of wine. Before I could place my bags on the floor, Sean got started. “That bitch lied in court again! Now she’s saying that I didn’t feed the kids before I brought them back to her last week. She told the judge that when I bring them home, they’re dirty and their clothes are usually torn up! What the fuck!” Sean exclaimed. “I can’t wait for this shit to be over, I hate this bitch!” I listen quietly as he gave me a blow-by-blow play of his day in Family Court.
We finished the bottle while I made a couple of open face turkey sandwiches. I listened to Sean rant for the next two hours and was very sympathetic to his situation. He was pissed, but something tells me that something else must have happened for her to flip like that. But that’s none of my business, and I don’t want to know. When he left, I went upstairs to take a shower and relax. As I turned on the shower, my phone rang. I glanced over at my ID caller and saw that it was Kavon. I took a deep breath and answered. “Hello.” “Hello, stranger,” he replied. “I’d been thinking about you, would you like some company tonight?” he asked in a seductive tone. I looked at the phone and counted to ten. “I think you already know the answer, Kavon. No, no, thank you,” I replied. Then hung up the phone, in as much as I needed and wanted sex, I had standards, and Kavon was no longer an eligible candidate for my bedroom.
Shit, if I had a choice the only person I would make love to would be Jordan, but since I didn’t have a nickel in that quarter. I had to go without. Now if I had to have sex I wanted anyone else besides Kavon’s deceitful ass.
All night long I tossed and turned, I couldn’t sleep. It had been months since I had felt the warmth of a man’s body next to mine. My body was in heat, and my mind
