Kamira nodded understanding everything she was saying. As long as she didn't have to move or live with her father it was fine with her.

"Okay now eat ya breakfast, it's the most important meal of the day," Evie sat the plate down infront of her making her mouth instantly water. "You don't have school today?"

"Yes, but I really just wasn't up to going today," Kamira said with a sigh.

"Mhm okay, just this once. You finish eating. I have to run to grocery and get a few things I'll be right back," she said grabbing her purse off the counter.

"Granny you sure, I can go for you I-"

"No baby it's fine. I look forward to getting out the house, I'll be back in a little bit. Do them dishes while I'm gone," she said Kamira nodded.

After Kamira finished eating she did as she was told doing the dishes. She sighed thinking about available jobs right now, and that would pay good.

She looked over seeing her phone flashing on the kitchen table. She picked up it as Monty's name flashed acrosss her screen. When she answered the FaceTime call Monty's face was close as hell with a mug plastered on his face.

"Mira, where the hell is you at?"

"I'm at my grandma's house Monty," she answered. "Where are you?"

"School somewhere where you need to be," he tilted his head to the side still mugging. "Why you at you Grams?"

"Long story short I'm living with her now," she shrugged.

"What? Since when? Could've sworn I just dropped you off yo house last night and that's where you was living," he said honestly confused.

"My dad wants us to move to Tennessee and I said no I told him I was going to grandmas and he basically told me to not come back," she shrugged again.

"Soooo, you moved out. Do he know you moved out?"

"Yea... no... he'll figure it out eventually," she chuckled.

"Aight, Grams cooking Sunday. I need some real food. Moms been having me fucked lately," he cringed.

"Isn't she always," she nodded.

"You right," he chuckled. "Imma hit chu when I get outta here," he said and she nodded her head before hanging up.

Kamira wondered around the quiet house looking for something to pass the time. She sat down on the living room couch deciding to just watch TV until her grandma got back.

"Oh thank you baby. You didn't have to," Evie's voiced echoed through the house snapping Kamira out of her trance.

"No problem Ms. Evie. It's just a couple bags," a deep said. Kamira stood to her feet wondering who the voice belonged to.

"Go ahead and set them there on the counter," Evie told her.

The unknown man walked past threshold of the living room giving Kamira a glimpse of her. His dark skin, his perfect waves, the way his arms flexed ass he carried the grocery bags made Kamira smile on the inside.

"Mira," Evie called staring at her granddaughter with her hands on her hips. "Come help me put these groceries up," she smirked slightly.

Kamira cleared her throat and nodded following Evie into the kitchen where the unknown man was placing all the groceries down on the kitchen counter.

"Thank you dear," Evie smiled. "Kamira this Cordae, Gladous grand baby. Cordae this my grand baby, Kamira."

"Damn," was what Kamira wanted to say. To say Cordae was fine was an understatement. She was too shy and self conscious to tell him that though.

"Wassup ma, nice to meet ya," his thick Newyork accent almost sent Kamira into overdrive. Kamira looked down at her feet, she wasn't even able to look him in the face.

"Don't mind her, she's just a little shy. She just has to get used to you," Evie smiled at the two. "Mhm... I'll be right back. Stay right here so I can get these cards for Gladous," she rushed off.

Kamira shook her head. She knew what her grandmother was doing. Evie was like Cupid. Ghetto Cupid.

"She a trip," Cordae chuckled.

"Yea... she is," she chuckled nodded.

"You know what she cooking Sunday? She won't tell me talking bout it's a surprise," he said shaking his head.

"No," Kamira shook her head. "She never tells me either. She lives for our misery."

"Thats what a nigga saying," he chuckled. "You from over here? I ain't ever seen you around before."

"I am," she nodded. "I just don't come out the house a lot," she shrugged.

"Home body huh?" He said and she nodded again. "Me too, ion really like big crowds and shit."

"Me too... only time I come out the house if it's with my bestfriend. He thinks I'm crazy or something," she chuckled.

"Sound like my homeboy, Chi," he nodded.

"Okay here," Evie came back down the steps with an envelope in her hand. "I'll see you Sunday?"

"Fashooo, you know I'm here," he nodded. "I'll see you later," he gave Evie a side hug. "Nice meeting you Kamira."

"You too," she waved as he walked off towards the front door.

"Cute huh?"

"Bye Granny," Kamira laughed loudly.

"He's a good boy, Mira."

"Okay, I hear you," She laughed even more.

"He's single too... no kids... no drama... he got a legal job... he-"

"Granny! Stop I'm not finna go out with that boy," she laughed.

"I didn't say that... I was just telling you about him."

"Sure you were," Kamira shook her head. Evie really a trip.
