Charisma J

I was up before August, as usual. I got out of bed and handled my hygiene.

I sighed and glanced at the timer.

9:04:54.

I had 9 hours left with August. 5 hours left with my friends.

I threw it back down in the drawer.

"Dammit" I slightly yelled.

I turned and looked at August. He was still sleeping.

I went downstairs, and went to kitchen grabbing some Cinnamon Toast Crunch and making me a bowl of cereal.

I sat on the bar stool deep in thought, not even noticing August come in.

"G'mawnin'." He said.

"Morning love" I hopped up and pecked his lips.

"What you and yo friends getting into today?" He asked, making him a bowl of cereal.

"We just finna go to the mall, and shop a little" I shrugged.

"How long y'all gone be there?"

"For a few hours dad" I laughed, adding emphasis on "dad".

"Nah I'm daddy" He smirked.

"Boyyy" I laughed, and got up and put my bowl in the sink.

"Boyyy" He mocked, grabbing me.

"Aug I have to put my bowl in the sink."

"So?" He pecked my lips.

I laughed and kissed him.

"You betta' give me a kiss" He said, placing another one on my lips.

"Oh hush" I chuckled.

"That's cute, you getting that?" Kai said as I held up a yellow crop top.

"Yeah it's really cute" I said, draping it on my arm.

We were at the mall, shopping and laughing. Their flight left in a few hours, and we were trying to spend time together before they left for the states.

"Charisma, you getting thickk" Tiana hit my butt.

"I know" I stuck my tongue out.

"Oop" Kai said. "Let me find out"

I wiggled my eyebrows.

"Y'all nasty" She shook her head.

"Tell me something I don't know" I mumbled.

"That yo bestie Kendrick is over there" Tiana motioned towards his direction.

I looked over at him, and rolled my eyes.

I'm so tired of seeing him.

"Y'all mad at eachother?" Kai asked, holding up a shirt.

"I guess you could say that." I said, "Hold this, Ill be right back"

I looked at him again, and this time he was looking directly at me.

As I walked over there, I felt myself getting more irritated.

"What you here for?" I asked.

"I can't come to the mall?" He smirked.

"Did I say that shit?" I folded my arms.

"Well, you implied it. But enjoy your time, cause it looks like it's limited" He chuckled.

Before I realized, I slapped him. Hard too.

"Fuck you" I said, and walked back to the store with Kai and Tiana.

"Damn! What happened?" Tiana asked.

"Just got into an argument. Y'all wanna go get some fro-yo?" I asked.

"Um yeah, cotton candy with coco puffs, and cap'n crunch sounds good" Kai rubbed her tummy.

"That shit sounds trifling" Tiana scrunched her face up.

—
"Girl don't cry, I'm going to see you soon" I hugged an emotional Kai.

When was she wasn't emotional?

"I know, but it's so beautiful here, and I miss seeing y'all everyday" She sniffed a little.

"We miss you too light bright" August muffed her head.

"Jerk" She punched him.

"Bye brother" I hugged Chris.

"Bye lil bit".

"Bye baddieeee" I hugged Tiana.

"Bye love, Imma miss y'all" She chuckled.

"Likewise"

August and I watched as everyone boarded their flights.

"You hungry?" He asked, as we headed back to the house.

"No I'm fine" I shook my head.

"You good? Cause yo ass always hungry" He chuckled.

"I'm good, I swear" I laughed a little.

"Well I'm finna get me some McDonalds." He said.
