Chapter 20
“I love you, Babi. For real.” “I love you too.”
“I hear you. But don’t let Soya nem talk you into clubbing or nothing.”
I smirked and shook my head. “Now, where did that come from?”
“Cause, man. I get the vibes. Since she moved in you been going to brunches more often. You be missing my calls. And it’s just a matter of time before she’ll have you in them clubs with her.
” “Well, clubbing aint really my thing. But…since you mentioned it, I guess you should know that…I’m going out for my
birthday next weekend.”
“Oh, yeah? When was this decided?” “When Soya got a section for me as a gift.”
“Maannn,” Too Low drawled. “There goes that bullshit.” “How is that bullshit, Too Low?”
He sucked his teeth. “Since when do we go to the club without each other?”
“Never. But you’re not here, right now. And I just wanna go outside, baby. That’s it. It’s not like I’ll go to the club and suddenly forget about the love of my life.”
“The love of your life, huh? Yeah, I better be your first, and only fucking love too.”
“You are.”
“Alright, Babi. I guess I’ma accept that you going out. Especially cause you told me beforehand.”
“Okay. But…that also means that I won’t be able to come see you that Saturday. I’ll have to come Sunday.”
“See, man. Now you really pushing it. But it’s your birthday, and I want you to enjoy yourself. So, we can roll with it. In fact, it’s the perfect time to break in those Gucci tennis shoes that you never wore.”
