Who does this nigga think he is? I thought as I put the pots and pans away since I wouldn’t be using them anymore. When I got back upstairs I sent Otis a text message with my address. When I finished I called Lani to let her know what happened.

“Hey sister,” she answered, sounding happy as hell.

“What’s up Lani? Guess what?” I asked, unable to control the excitement in my voice.

“What happened?” she squealed.

“I just got off the phone with Otis not too long ago. He’s coming to get me tonight so we can go out to dinner,” I said blushing.

“Yesss bitch, so what are you gonna wear? You want me to come over and help you pick out something?” she asked, sounding more excited than I was.

“Yes come because I want you to flat iron my hair too,” I said.

“Alright girl, I’m on my way.”

Around fifteen minutes later, Ka’lani was pulling up in my driveway. I ran downstairs to open the door for her even though she had her own spare key. She came back over looking really pretty in her red strapless sundress with cheetah sandals to match.

“So do you have an idea of what you want to wear Tisha?” she asked as soon as we got inside of my room.

“Yes I think I want to wear that all white maxi dress with my cheetah red bottoms and my red clutch,” I said, walking over to the closet to get my clothes out.

“Okay that’s cute and you gonna just wear a part down the middle, right?” Lani asked, making herself comfortable on top of my bed.

“Yes let me just take a quick shower then you can start my hair afterwards.”

I took a nice hot bubble bath as I sat there thinking of tonight’s events. I don’t know why but I was kind of nervous. Whenever I get around Otis I always talk so much shit to him and it’s going to be different now since we’re going on a date. Twenty minutes later I

came back in my bedroom in my short satin robe to find Lani caked up on the phone with Ty.

“Alright ho tell Ty you’ll call his ass back now,” I said, letting my presence become known in the room.

Lani started laughing then said, “Ty said shut yo hating ass up.”

I waved both of their asses off as I went to my top drawer to pick out my bra and panties for tonight. After Lani finally got her ass off the phone, she plugged the flat iron up in my room so that she could start my hair.

“So you excited about tonight?” Lani asked as she began to part my hair.

“Honestly sis I’m excited and nervous, I haven’t been with no one else after Mike and I’m just scared of getting hurt again. You know what I mean?”

“Tisha girl you gotta be strong and you don’t have to worry about Otis hurting you because I talked to him already and I know Ty talked to him too about making sure he treats you right. Just have a good time tonight,” Lani told me. I decided to calm my nerves a little bit. I was going to relax and enjoy myself tonight and try to think positive. Lord give me strength!

Chapter 10: Otis

I was coming from the barbershop when I decided to give Tisha a call. It was Sunday and I really didn’t have anything to do so I figured I’d take her fine ass out tonight. I remember the first time I saw Tisha about a year ago at Tyrone’s house for a cookout. She reminded me so much of the rapper Charlie Baltimore from back in the days. She’s so fine and classy but yet so hood. When I saw her, she had on a pretty ass white dress that hugged every curve of her body. To complement her outfit, she had on a pair of 4-inch Giuseppe Zanotti heels with gold spikes. Her hair was following loosely in spiral curls, with a part down the middle. She was absolutely beautiful. I played it cool and didn’t say anything to her because I was out with one of my birds at the time. The next time I saw her it was a Friday night at my club. She was with Lani and I swear she looked even more beautiful than she did the last time.

I approached Tisha and boy did she dis my ass. She started calling me a ho and saying that I had too many females for her. I was trying to explain to her ass that I would leave all these chicken heads alone if she would at least give a nigga a chance. I’ve been tryna get with her ever since. I’m tired of playing games with Tisha ass though. As soon as she steps foot in my car, I’m letting her know what’s up. I’m going to tell her how I really feel about her and that I’m ready to settle down and make her my girl.

Ten minutes later, I was pulling up to my condo out in in the Landings in Miami. I lived in a quiet neighborhood by myself. I had the house decked out just like any other bachelor would have. I had four bedrooms in total; the master bedroom, the guest room, my office, and my workout room. My house was perfect for a king. I really didn’t get a lot of sleep last night, so I was just gonna take a nap until it was time for me to start getting ready.

I woke up around 4 p.m. and headed into the bathroom to take my shower. I decided to wear my black Polo shirt, True Religion jeans slightly hanging off my ass, and my Christian Louboutin sneakers. I threw on my all-black Michel Kors watch and sprayed on my Tom Ford cologne. At 6:15 exactly I was out the door to go pick up my girl. I decided to drive in my all-black 2014 Chevy Camaro.

At exactly 6:45, I was pulling up to Tisha’s condo. I hoped she was ready because our reservations at the Prime 112 out on Miami Beach were for 7:30. I quickly jumped out the car and took the stairs to the second floor of the building. Once I got in front of her door, I knocked twice and a few seconds later, Lani came to the door. I wasn’t expecting to see her here.

“What’s up O? Come on in. Tisha is in the room. She should be out shortly,” she said, opening the door wider so I could come in. When I stepped inside, she pointed me to the direction of the couch and I sat and admired Tisha’s house. From the looks of things, her favorite colors were red and gold. I had to admit, she had taste and she kept a clean house. A clean house means a clean pussy!

“Where y’all going tonight O?” Lani asked when she came back out in the living room from checking on Tisha.

“Damn you nosey girl,” I said, laughing at her funny ass.
