"Just text me when you get done and I'll roll back through and get you."
"Okay baby." I got out of his car and sashayed my way to the door to the nail shop. Ahmad watched my every move like I knew he would. I made sure I gave his ass a show too. My ass was so thick even chicks couldn't help but stare and the added attention didn't bother me one bit. I enjoyed putting on for whoever wanted to watch. The way Ahmad licked his lips let me know I had him right where I wanted him.
I walked in the shop and smiled when I saw my favorite nail tech was available to see me. My girl Anne always laced my nails when she did them. Central Nails usually stayed packed with every girl in the city trying to come in and get something done. I'm glad Ahmad brought me when he did because the shop wasn't that crowded. That way I could be in and out without having to wait too long.
I walked directly to Anne's nail station and plopped down in her black leather chair.
"I'm so glad you were open." I said placing both of my hands on top of the table.
"I'm glad I was too otherwise you would've had to wait."
"I can't help it. You've been doing my nails forever."
Before I knew it I started to get lost in my conversation with Anne catching up on everything that's been going on since the last time I was there. I watched as her face frowned up. I turned around and saw Charmaine had conveniently walked into the shop. I rolled my eyes and turned back around.
"I do not like her. Every time she comes in she causes a scene. It's so bad that no one in the shop wants to do her nails. I absolutely refuse."
When I turned back around, Charmaine had taken an empty seat in the waiting area. She took several magazines and began flipping through them. She still hadn't noticed me sitting there but I knew it would only be a matter of time before she spotted me.
"Don't worry. I can't stand her ass either." I replied. I put the thought that she was even there out of my mind and just concentrated on getting my nails and feet done. I'd decided to try stiletto nails this time instead of my usual squared nails. From all of the pictures I'd seen on Instagram I knew it was the latest trend. Anne started to get excited as she pulled out all kinds of new colors for me to pick from. I settled on a matte plum color and once she laid my brand new acrylic she instructed me to go to the sink and wash my hands. It wasn't until I got up that Charmaine noticed me. Her attitude immediately changed. This sorry ass bitch was so predictable. Like the true bitch she was, she decided to approach me while I was drying my hands.
"Funny I run into you here Selina."
"I didn't think I would run into you here at all. I figured since Kwame kicked your ass to the curb that you wouldn't want to leave the rock you've crawled under." I spat blinking my eyes dramatically knowing that she didn't expect me to hit her with that piece of information.
"That's real cute but if you're gonna run your mouth at least get your fuckin' facts straight. Kwame didn't break up with me. I broke up with him … hoe."
"I can be a hoe all you want but know this. Now that you're out of the picture it will only be a matter of time before him and I are officially together."
"I highly doubt that." Charmaine started laughing at what I said and I found myself getting pissed because the one thing I didn't tolerate was disrespect.
"And why is that?"
"Why you're worried about me sweetie Kwame don't give two shits about you. He's moved on and already has a new girl."
"Charmaine, I already knew that but as far as I'm concerned his new chick ain't got shit on me." I replied as if I already knew what she was talking about but I didn't have the slightest clue about Kwame supposedly being with some other chick already.
"You can say what you want but from the dumb ass expression you just had I know yo ass didn't know that shit. Get it through your thick head … Kwame don't want you boo. He never has trick."
"Get the fuck out my face Charmaine!" I was so tired of her just saying whatever she wanted and thought that it would be okay. I don't even know why I allowed what she said to get underneath my skin like that but she did and knowing her the stuff she just said probably wasn't even true. She probably just said it to try and piss me off so I brushed it off as yet another one of her attempts to run me away from the one person I knew would be mine. She's just mad because he was never hers to begin with.
I came back to my seat so she could finish my nails and while I got my pedicure I decided to reach out to Kwame. He still hadn't said he received the picture I sent him and I needed him to respond to me.
I know I'm supposed to be giving you space but I still need to talk to you. Please hit me up. Selina.
I pressed send and waited for his response. What usually only took a matter of seconds turned into minutes and before long my pedicure had been over. I still hadn't heard from Kwame. I don't know what I had done to make him blow me off like that but I didn't like it one bit. I knew when we finally did talk he was set to get a mouthful. I hit Ahmad as soon as I was through and he ended up arriving just as my nails finished drying.
I hopped in his car and immediately showed him my nails.
"That's dope. I like it."
"So I was thinking we'd grab a room down the way so we can finish what we started from earlier." Ahmad licked his lips. I knew the minute he pulled up that sex was on his mind. He looked like he wanted to pounce on me right then and there and I wanted nothing more than to be dominated in this moment. I reached over and unzipped his fly massaging his dick through his Calvin Klein Boxers. I watched as he leaned his head back closing his eyes and enjoying every stroke. It was crazy how a person responded to my touch but it had been something that I'd mastered over time and I used it to my full advantage. This time wouldn't be any different. I had been so focused on pleasing Ahmad with my hand job that I didn't notice some ratchet ass chick had walked up to the driver's side door of Ahmad's car.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
I couldn't identify who this female was but she beat on his window with so much force that I thought her heavy ass hand would break his window.
"Ahmad! Open up! Open up this damn door! I see you in there with some hoe! Open up! Your tints ain't that dark!" She screamed.
"Who is this Ahmad?" I asked wanting to place a name with the crazy chick who stood outside his car.
"My fucking girlfriend."
My mouth dropped not as his confession but at the sight of Kwame off in the distance kissing on some girl. So now I see Charmaine wasn't lying after all. The problem was he continued to blow me off like I was nothing when I had something to discuss with him that would change our lives as we knew it. I wanted to tell him I was pregnant and now since I see he was up to the same old shit I couldn't wait to break up his little happy home with my revelation.

Chapter 10
The lights from the cake that Kwame held illuminated the bedroom as he walked in the bedroom carrying what appeared to be my birthday cake.
"Happy birthday baby." Kwame flicked on the light switch revealing a cake that seemed to hold a million candles.
"How did you know it was my birthday?" I asked curiously. I didn't remember mentioning to him that I had a birthday coming up.
"Don't worry. I have my ways."
"Tameeka and her big mouth huh?"
"Basically. I'm glad she told me though ‘cuz otherwise I wouldn't have had a clue. I needed to know so that I could plan your special day."
"But I have to go to school."
"No you don't. You're officially called off of school."
"How?"
"Tameeka called in and acted like your mom and reported you off sick. Cough." He prompted.
I smiled and then coughed one time.
"Yup. You're sick and you need to stay home. Besides, the entire day is ours. I have surprises for the entire day.
"What?"
"Yes baby I want your special day to be perfect."
"It already is. I love my cake."
"This cake is nothing compared to what I have in store for you. Make a wish and blow out your candles boo." I glanced over at him and then closed my eyes making my wish.
In my life where things are never the same I wish that this moment will last forever.
I opened my eyes and blew out all the candles. It took me a few times to get all sixteen blown out but I eventually got them all. I took my index finger and glazed the top of the cake.
