I Wasn't Accepting No Money From Him And I Didn't Want Anything From Him

I Was Having Lunch With Deshawn At This Chinese Restaurant

He Was Good Friend He Was Someone I Knew I Could Trust Someone Who Would Listen To Me Someone To Comfort Me During This Very Stressful Time In My Life

I Was In The Process Of Going Through This Divorce And Hell Nah I Wasn't Looking To Date Deshawn At All
