“Why not? What’s wrong with them?” He laughed.
“Nothing. He didn’t want Miss Coleman to have strawberry seeds in between her teeth when they spoke.” I busted out laughing as Sariah threw the strawberry back in the bucket. She grabbed her phone and flipped the camera to see if she had any seeds in her teeth.
“Thank you, Mr.…” I waited for him to give his name.
“You’re welcome and I’ll give you my name when Mr. Romano makes a decision if he’ll be with you or not. That way you won’t feel comfortable speaking to me in public and get offended when I don’t respond.” Now it was Sariah’s turn to laugh.
“I respect it.” The partition went up; music came on and off we went.
“Girl, that nigga said we are on a need to know name basis. Meaning you don’t need to know him unless necessary.” The way Sariah started cackling pissed me off because it wasn’t that funny. Picking up my phone, I opened the message that just appeared and smirked.
Sexy ass Cairo- You better not walk in here looking crazy. I’ll make them turn you around and send you home.
Me- I guess you’ll have to find out when I get there. And what happens if you don’t look sexy?
Sexy ass Cairo -That won’t ever happen because I wake up sexy.I laughed hard as hell and put my phone away. I wasn’t about to go back and forth with him.
Putting my phone and clutch on the seat, I scooted closer to the window and stared at the full moon. It was beautiful and so were all of the city lights off the highway. The further we drove, the more scenery we past and I must say it was even more beautiful looking with the moon shining bright.
“What if that bitch there? Do you think Raul will act funny?” Turning my head in Sariah’s direction, I could tell how nervous she was.
“I’m telling you, that chick was trying to make you mad. I seriously doubt Cairo would’ve had me bring you knowing Raul invited someone else. Then again…” I cut myself off.
“Exactly. Maybe I should stay in the limo.” I had to look at her.
“And do what? Talk to the driver because we both know he’s not saying anything unless the guys tell him to.” We both looked in the driver’s seat and started laughing.
“Yea, I guess you’re right.” I shook my head.
“I know and we both know your ass hungry as hell and I’m not bringing no plates of food out.” Sariah had reason to be worried about going in especially since her and Raul haven’t spoken since he left her house. However, I stand by my statement about that chick not being there. Cairo may not care about Sariah but she is pregnant and by the way the family acted toward Cairo with me almost drowning, I’m sure they’ll dig in Raul’s ass too.
“Oh shit. We here.” Sariah said, pointing to some building all the way in the back. The driver had to go around two different entrances before stopping in front of one.
“Bitch, I’m glad we dressed up because look at them. Damn, even that man’s hat look expensive.” I spoke in a hushed tone so the driver didn’t hear. He had the partition up but you never know.
“Great! We about to be the poor ones dressed in Fashion Nova clothes while they’re dripped in Versace and Gucci.” One chick stepped out the door wearing all black with a huge Gucci belt and the shoes had a G on them as well. She started walking toward the limo we sat in. The driver got out to meet her at the door.
“Is that them?”We could hear her outside the limo.
“Who is that?” Sariah asked me as if I would know. I knew none of these people. The door opened and the look on the woman’s face confused both of us. It wasn’t happy or mad and more of hurry up and get out.
“Hi, I’m Jackie Romano.” She was leaned down looking inside.
“Wow? Raul didn’t tell us that you were about to pop.” That was very rude of her. I had to pinch Sariah on the arm and tell her not to respond. Once she stepped out, the driver reached for my hand and the smirk on the chick’s face had me wondering what smart thing she had to say about me.
“Cairo is going to kill someone tonight over you.” She snapped a photo of me.
“Yes indeed.” The driver responded which shocked me.
“Why didn’t I get that response?” Sariah sassed with her hand on her hip.
“Girl, who’s gonna want a pregnant woman? And besides, Raul already told the men you were off limits.” She responded with her head in the phone.
“Why would he do that?” I know Sariah wanted to say he didn’t even want her there but I stopped her.
“Oh, you think men don’t find pregnant women attractive. They’re disgusting and will try anything. Let’s go.” She turned around and I had to feel my own ass because hers was big and it looked natural. She put mine to shame and I was intimidated for sure.
“Have fun ladies.” The driver tipped his hat and got in the limo.
