Chapter 3

Syncere's POV: continued

   “Well since we're introducing ourselves, I'm Jasmine, but everyone calls me Jazz and Syn's girlfriend.” My girl Jasmine said Sarcastically, as her and her friends Leah walked to our table like they owned the place. I know how my baby attitude is, she can go from zero to a hundred real quick. I didn't want her and her dumb ass friend Leah attacking these girls for no reason. So I needed to put an end to this real quick. Getting up, my lunch forgotten at this point. “Hey bae, we had to share this table to eat, because this place is crowded as hell. Essence and Kimani were nice enough to share their table with us.” I said, quickly to defuse the situation. Jazz looked around, and sucked her teeth.

             “Seriously? I see three open booths, that they could have sat at.” Jazz said with an attitude, pointing at three empty booths, and damn if the crowd hadn't thinned out and they were tables available too. Here comes the bullshit, now Essence and Kimani were about to become victims just for being nice. They may quit college after my girl is done with them. Jazz's mouth can be reckless, shaking my head because this was about to go left real quick.

Essence’s POV:

Closing my eyes, “Ok God, you know I'm trying to be an adult now. I know I can't engage or entertain insecure bitches I mean females, that want to direct their insecurities on me, but it's too soon to test me, you could have let me settle into my grown ness a little while longer.” I prayed to myself taking a deep breath. I looked at Kimani who was also Shocked and trying not to be petty, keyword, trying.

             “Ki-Ki I'm trying to figure out who ole girl talking bout because. First she don't know me nor you and second this is our table. Their men were the ones, who asked to share our table. So she can't be talking about us, so we don't even have to respond, let them deal with their men.” I said in a tone that said, please don't try me today.

           “Whatever, I wasn't talking to you and it doesn't matter whose table it was; bottom line is you and your friend need to understand that Syn and Shawn are off limits; so you can keep all those giggles, trying to be cute to yourselves. It's sad because you and your friends flirting, giggling, and shit, but I can tell you that him and Shawn are not into fat girls." Syncere's girlfriend said thinking she could actually, hurt our feelings with fat jokes. They were the only ones who thought that dumb shit was funny. Syncere and Shawn looked embarrassed and looking at us saying sorry with their eyes. Me and Ki-Ki looked at each other chuckling.

             “Oh I get it now, you and your hoe I mean home girl, insecure. Yall don't allow your men to talk or look at other females. Which is cool, because I don't care, but what you not gone do, is tell me or my friend what we should’ve done, because we grown and can talk to whoever we want. Now what you need to do, is direct that angry insecure energy bullshit towards your dudes and not us.” I said in warning. “Essi let's go before you snap and fuck this whole place up.” Kimani said, grabbing both of our trays. “You nor I have bail money.” Kimani finished and walked off.

  

             “We can go, but I'm good, I'm very calm actually. I don't have the energy to entertain crazy today.” I said getting up. “Let's go and find the gym and get our workout in, because that's the one place we haven’t seen yet. So we might as well use it once we find it.” I said brushing by Syncere, our hands touched as I walked pass, and my heart sped up. Jazz and Leah started laughing again. “How are you still fat if you exercise? I mean shouldn't yall be smaller or toned at least? ” Jazz asked as they continued to laugh. Stopping mid-step me and Kimani looked at each other, but before I could hit her with a clap-back; Kimani turned around and looked at the girls smiling and shaking her head.

           “Wwooww! See I was trying not to entertain this foolery, but you feeling real bold today. Sweetie you don't have to do all this trying to let everybody know we big beautiful women. Trust me we both know it and you do too. What people may not know is, you feel the need to point out how big we are, because we had your man’s attention, to the point they didn't even notice tables were available. So you should keep your insecurities on the low, it's not cute, it's just sad. You don't want everybody to know you have low self esteem boo.” Kimani said turning towards the exit, brushing pass me while I laughed my ass off following her out the door.

           “Damn Ki-Ki you snatched that bitch whole face off.” I said, still laughing glancing back. I caught Shawn giggling and Syncere had a smirk on his face while his girl was stuck on stupid.
