“Okay, Maria this is Raven and I want you to help her find a swimming suit to change into.”
“No problem, poppy.” She smiled. “You can come with me.” She nodded her head.
I looked back at Jahrein and he nodded for me to go ahead.
“So, where are you from?” she asked me as I followed her back into the house.
“Houston.” I replied.
“Really? I have an aunt down there.” She said as we headed up the stairs.
“Oh, yeah?”
She led me into a huge bedroom that was bigger than our entire apartment back home. She stepped inside of this closet that I could have lived in.
“What size do you wear?” she asked. “Umm, you look to be like a five or six.” She guessed.
“Yeah, you guessed it right.”
“Perfect. I have just the piece for you.” She said as she pulled out a golden swim suit from the built in drawers inside the closet.
She lifted the thin material and I checked it out. “Wow, that’s cute, but don’t you think that it’s a little revealing?” I asked her.
She giggled. “All the swim suits are revealing.”
“Oh.” I sighed as I took it from her.
“Don’t worry. You’ll blend right in. All the other girlfriends and wives have on something similar.”
“I guess.” I shrugged.
“You can get dressed in the bathroom.” She told me as she pointed out the bathroom at the far left of the room.
I went into the bathroom and undressed. I slid on the golden metallic string bikini and the string top that barely covered my nipples. Even though, I could have used a bigger top I still looked sexy. Too sexy, really. I knew how Jahrein was and I didn’t want no problems. But then again I could just blame it all on Maria, since she was the one that gave me that little getup to wear in the first place.
When I stepped out of the bathroom Maria’s jaw dropped. “Oh my, mami, I didn’t know that you were packing all of that underneath those clothes.”
I let out a shy laugh.
“I see why you were hesitant about wearing this. Your man might be the jealous type. Shit if I was him, I wouldn’t let you out my sight.” She said seductively. Was she flirting with me?
“Yeah, let’s go back downstairs.” I told her getting a little nervous. I didn’t want to have to rough up one of the big dope man’s bitches. I wasn’t even with that bull dagger shit.
Maria led me back to the pool area and all eyes were on me. I mean, everybody was looking from the women to the men. The women weren’t giving me the same hating stares like the girls back home. Their eyes were filled with lust. Did every chick in Miami go both ways?
My eyes searched around for Jahrein and I spotted him sitting at the table with the men from a few minutes ago talking. I figured that they were talking business, so I decided to sit on the ledge of the pool and stick my feet in the water.
The water felt good between my toes as I watched all the people interact. That was some way out shit. I saw a few bitches doing lines near the bar area while the other chicks were entertaining the men while the guys’ hands roamed freely over their bodies. Everything was so open. I guess that’s how you they did it when they had money.
“Why don’t you take a swim?” this Colombian looking dude asked me from the pool. He didn’t talk with an accent but you could just tell that he wasn’t a complete black man.
“Nah, I pass. I don’t want to get my hair wet.” I told him.
“Come on, baby. You gotta swim with me.” He pleaded as he grabbed my thighs.
I pushed his hands off and looked at Jah. Our eyes met as he glared at me. “My man is not going to like that.” I stood up and walked away. I glanced over at Jahrein and he was still staring at me.
“Hi, mami.” Some short man spoke, as he walked up to me. “Are you here with someone?”
