Once In A Lifetime (Sequel to Secrets)

Open to love

Mia's Pov

After the crew decided on throwing a welcome home party for Chris and Nikki, I got excited. Lately we haven't had any fun. Maybe this party will lift everyone's spirit. Especially Mel after she saw Deion with that girl at Olive Garden she hasn't been the same. She's trying to be strong but deep down I know she's hurting. I decide to call her up and see what's she's up to.

Mel answers after the first ring.

"Hey girl."

"Hey," says Mel.

"How you feeling?"

"I'm okay I could be better. Deion is being an ass now he wants to get back together. All this week he's been coming by my house begging for my forgiveness. At one point I was about to break down and say yes. But then I thought about what he put me through. He messed around on me once, it's only a matter of time before he does it again." says Mel

"Exactly I'm so proud of you for not falling for his tricks. So are you free tonight?"

"Why what did you have in mind?" Asks Mel

"I wondering if you wanted to go to this new club downtown. Everyone says it's live AF we have to go. Maybe we can find you a new boo."

"I don't know about that, but I'll come. It sounds fun and I need to meet new people. What time are you gonna pick me up?" Asks Mel

"Hmm is 8 okay?"

"Yeah that's fine it won't take me long to get dress." Says Mel

"Okay I'll call you when I'm outside."

"Okay bye." Says Mel

"Bye." I hang up the phone and quickly get ready. I debate on whether I should straight iron my hair or not. I decide to leave it curly. My hair is naturally curly and will take way to long to straighten.

I find a cute little black dress and some red bottoms to go with it. I put a flower on the side of my hair and call it a day. I put on some eye liner and mascara with some bright red lip stick. I usually don't wear lip stick but today I thought why not. Once I was dressed I looked at myself in my full length mirror.

"Damn I look good!" The dress fit perfect it was tight fitting and showed off all my curves.

I hope there are some cuties at the club because I am in need of some male attention. You're probably wondering what happen to my boyfriend will. Let's just say we didn't work out. It just seemed like we never had time for each other. He got this job at a nearby art gallery. He spent long hours there and would always come home late. When I tried to spend time with him it's like he just didn't want to be bothered. He was spending way too much time down there. So one night I went down there and saw him getting his Mac on. He was so busy flirting with every girl in the room that he didn't notice me standing there. At that point I just ended it. I really don't want a man whore. I'll always be thankful for him getting me through my rough time in rehab. Will truly was my rock. As soon as we left he became a completely different person. He ended up being just like his brother Alex. 😒

I take one more look in the mirror and call it quits. I grab my keys and a small clutch and head out the door.

Mel doesn't live to far from me so it didn't take long to pick her up. I beeped my horn and she walked outside.

"What happen to calling me when you're outside?" Asks Mel

"Sorry boo I changed my mind."

She gets in the car and I want until she's closes the door before pulling off.
