*Cory*
*2 Weeks Later*
I finished packing up and was ready to make my way to the college, everything in me was so happy to be finally on my way to college and live the life of an adult. All the things that my older cousins and friends was telling me, made me happy but also nervous for college. Especially college ball, a few alumni’s told me how the upperclassmen was very serious about their positions was like a damn frat, they made the underclassmen do stupid shit to show that they are dedicated to the team. I wasn’t into the hazing type of things and if they made me do some crazy shit, I was going to back down but still be part of the team.
I looked over at my mother and tears was still coming out of her eyes, I knew she was mad heartbroken to see her only son going off to college.
“I’m going to miss you baby boy,” she said and kissed me on the forehead and I smiled trying to hold back the tears.
My mother practically been there for my whole life and I knew that it was going to be a hard time to adapt without my mother. I thank her for everything that she has done, she taught me how to do the things that women were supposed to do and I knew that I was going to be set for college.
“Don’t cry ma, you know I’m going to call you all the time and send tickets wherever I can to make you be right there for my games.”
I gave her a hug and smiled, I truly loved my mom.
I took my suitcase and gave her another kiss on the cheek and walked out to the car, I had to make at least on stop. I suddenly got a tweet noticing that I knew it was from Alia.
@MoreThan_Tweets: Just Stepped Up On Campus Waiting On A Certain Someone #Hint #Hint
I couldn’t help but to smile so damn much just knowing that she was already on campus so I really had to speed this up so I could really see her because I know everything in me wanted to see her.
I put my suitcase in the backseat and drove to the cemetery and parked in front of Alex’s tombstone and still saw the flowers sitting there still full of life and happy.
I leaned down in front of the tombstone and looked at picture of him in his cap and gown smiling hard as hell. I could remember that day when we took those damn pictures and told the photographer about thirty times that I wasn’t going to god damn smile whether it killed me or not but as for Alex I remember him saying one thing that actually made me smile in my cap and gown photo.
“You aint doing this for yourself, you doing this for your mother. I know I want my mom to look at this and smile and be like that’s my baby,” he explained and I smiled.
I look and the tombstone again and I smiled.
“This is it man, I’m off to Miami, never really thought that it would be like this but it happened. I know that I am going to have a hard time dealing with you by my side telling me the good from bad but I know you watching above, hey you could maybe catch the game of heaven TV,” I smiled, cracking a little smile, “Well it’s time to leave the hood and enter the world of college. Until then homie.”
I got up and walked back into the car and made my way to the airport I knew this was going to be a while before it was a while before I stepped down in Florida and finally see her.
So I finally got to the school and saw different types of women, old, new, big, and tall and everything in between. I was really happy seeing what I saw, it wasn’t the regular type of gang related people that I saw in Chi Town. It was really different.
“That better not be little nigga from the Chi!” I heard a voice and turned around to see one of the players from the team named Brenden Knight, ol’ dude was a great wide receiver, I really actually looked up to him because he was down to earth and was really into education at the same time.
“Damn Brenden what’s good!” I said giving him dap and smiling.
“I thought you were going to get here later?” he asked and I shrugged my shoulders.
“Man I had some business to take care of,” I started to look around the campus trying to look out for Alia cause I knew she was around.
“Business? Man you already got business to handle? Bruh who you fucking like that, already got you a college chick?” he questioned and I laughed shaking my head, it was nothing serious.
“Naw don’t even stress me, when I got business to handle, I got business to handle.”
Me and him started walking over to the registrar’s office to get our schedules. Almost every minute I had to take second looks at the chicks that passed by and smiled at me and I couldn’t help but to smile but I had to keep my composure cause Alia was still on my mind. But these chicks were tempting the hell out of me.
“Man you see these chicks? Straight down to fuck,” he said into my ear and I smiled out of nowhere, “Shit you see these white girls, they the worse then the ebony chicks, they like a little chocolate in their white milk,” he laughed and I looked at him and shook my head.
“I would love to take up on that offer but I love my ebony women plus don’t you have a chick like been dating for about five years now?”
He laughed, “Man I know, I love the chick too plus I’m just telling you what the dudes on the team tell me.”
I sighed, I wasn’t really the type to hear about the team but I guess I had to deal with them.
“Excuse me,” the voice really sent chills through my spine making me smile but I couldn’t fall into another women track. I looked up and saw her and she was so damn beautiful, my heart raced so damn much I couldn’t help but to smile so damn much. She was beautiful, her hair was nice and curly that cascaded down her neck and she had the most beautiful honey hazel eyes in the world.
“Um Excuse me,” I heard her say even louder and I snapped into my mind and she smiled and I couldn’t help but smile back, “Can I cut in front of you, I really have to get my schedule.”
“Sure,” I moved to the side and she walked in front of me and stood there and her beautiful statuesque just staring at me, all the times that I have seen Alia’s body on the computer it wasn’t nothing close to the damn pictures online.
“Ay holla at ol girl,” Brenden said and I could help but to look at him and shook my head no.
Right now I was freaking out because I was supposed to talk to her like I planned but everything in me was freaking out. But I had a different little way to meet her. I reached in my phone and went immediately on twitter.
@69StreetChef: I’m Going to need @ MoreThan_Tweets is going to have to turn around.
I could hear her snickering in front of me, and I couldn’t help but to smile. I could see her phone screen and I smiled even harder. My phone beeped and I saw the tweet.
@MoreThan_Tweets: @69StreetChef Why Should I?
I smiled and leaned down by her ear.
“I think you should know the man behind the twitter,” I said into her ear and her body jumped a little and she turned to me and I smiled at her.
“Oh my god, please tell me this is not real,” she said smiling from ear to ear, I know she was really happy.
“I think it is, you are really seeing your twitter husband, but my real name is Cory Smith, born and raised in-”
“Chi Town, I know, your twitter to the point where I learned a lot about you,” she smiled and I couldn’t help but to give her a tight hug.
“I really wanted to see you so bad though,” she let go and looked at me.
“Me too.”
Now I felt so damn happy that I finally got to see her, now I know how it felt to see her, feeling her soft skin and looking into her beautiful hair because it made me feel like a different man. This had to be the first day at college.
“Excuse me!” she yelled again and I snapped out of it and looked at her.
“Can I skip you?” I asked and I moved to the side and let her go through.
I sighed, I really wished that I could truly talk to her. I was just too damn nervous to even talk to her.
“Thank you.” She smiled at me
I had to really want to talk to her but now wasn’t the time.
