His Kind of Girl: A Love Story (10 page)

ZARIA

I CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED! HE CHOSE THAT BITCH OVER ME! OH HELL NO, IT’S ON NOW!

I went back up to my room wanting to cry my eyes out but I refused too. I was not about to let no other female come take my man away. Soon the both of them will be in for a rude awakening. After about an hour of sitting in my room contemplating what my next move was going to be, I got up and freshened myself up. I called my girl Neveah to see what she was up to and she said that they were in the room with Kior hanging out. BINGO!  I told her I was going to stop by to hang out with them for a moment. I headed out my room and went upstairs to their floor. Instead of taking the elevator, I decided to take the stairs to release some of the anger I had. By the time I got to their door, I was completely out of breath. Damn, I need to start working out again. I knocked on the door and Tionne opened it. When I walked in, Kior was sitting on Tionne’s bed with a silly ass grin on her face.

“What’s going on girls?” I said as I sat down in one of the chairs.

“Just in here having girl talk,” Neveah said.

I was very interested in knowing what kind of girl talk they were having so being the person that I am I asked, “What kind of girl talk are y’all having? Sex talk?”

“Well not really Kior has a new man!” Tionne said.

“Oh really and who is this lucky guy?” I pried

“His name is Ahmir and he is so sweet!” she said in excitement.

You don’t know how hard it was for me to keep my composure and a straight face. In my head I was screaming, “Bitch, he is my man!” I looked at her and said in the most sincere voice I could muster up, “Awww I’m sure he is, I’m soooo happy for you girl.”

“Thank you,” she said with the cheesiest grin ever. “The only problem I have now is that there’s a guy that I met that is very interested in me and I’m trying to find a way to let him know that I am officially off the market.”

“I told her the next time he calls her to just let him know what’s what. I mean the only thing he can do is respect it,” Neveah said.

“I agree,” Tionne said.

“I agree also. Well since we having girl talk, I have a situation I want to get off my chest. So the guy that I was dealing with just broke up with me for another girl, the whole time we were together, he was seeing this other girl also. To make matters worse the girl that he was seeing behind my back is someone that I know. I was so hurt that I did not know what to do or say, that’s not the worst part of it though. The thing is I think I might be pregnant by him,” I began to cry to make it even more believable.

Neveah, Tionne, and Kior got up and gave me a hug to try to calm me down. I tried to stop the tears from coming but once they started falling, there was no way for me to stop it.

“I’m sorry that happened to you Zaria,” Kior said.

“It’s okay because one thing is for sure; both of them will feel the hurt that I am feeling right now.” I said vindictively with my eyes narrowed at Kior. “Damn look at the time, I was just supposed to come in here for a second and look at me. Y’all got me in here crying and pouring out my heart. Let me go, I’ll talk to you girls later. Thank you for listening to my drama for the day!”

“Okay, talk to you later boo.” Neveah said giving me a hug.

I left out their room trying to figure out what I was going to do with this little bit of news I just received.

*************

It had been a week since Ahmir broke the news that he could no longer have sex with me and since that day, I have not contacted him at all. It’s not that I don’t want to talk to him but I had to get my mind together and come up with a plan on how I was going to win my man back. Let me catch you up to speed. One night I was leaving Neveah’s room and right before I got on the elevator I saw Kior and her friend Chanel going into what I assumed to be her room. After they went in and shut the door, I tiptoed to their door and did a little eavesdropping. Come to find out the guy that was into Kior was the DJ that worked at the club that everyone went to. DJ Spin was a big time DJ in the area and everyone knew who he was; when I tell you that was music to my ears, believe it. I heard all I needed to hear so I hurried back to the room and began putting my plan into action.

Since it was the weekend, I decided to go out to Club Pure and pay DJ Spin a little visit. I went to my room and decided to wear a red tight fitting long sleeve dress with a pair of silver pumps for the occasion. I put my hair in a high bun, put on some black lipstick and eyeliner, and sprayed my body with Twilight Wood by Bath and Body Works. I grabbed my purse and cell phone and headed out the door. I called a cab so I was waiting on it to arrive. When the cab came, I hopped in and told him where I was going. Pulling up to the club, it was packed like always but I wasn’t the one to wait in anyone’s line. I walked right up to the door and because I knew the bouncer, he let me right in with a little tip in his hands of course. I walked inside and everyone was dancing and having the time of their lives. Too bad I was there for business and not pleasure. While sitting back scoping the scene, some guy who was not pleasant to the eyes at all, walked up to me and asked could he buy me a drink. Looking at his 5’10 medium build, brown skinned frame and that nappy ass hair on his head and face, let me know he hasn’t had a haircut in forever. I would’ve normally declined but because I knew I wasn’t going to be there long, I decided to accept his offer. I decided to drink very light so I settled with an amaretto sour; I had to keep my mind clear. After about fifteen minutes of just sitting back, I decided it was time to put my plan in motion. I walked over to the DJ booth and got DJ Spin’s attention to let him know I wanted to talk to him. When he gave me the signal, I walked up to the booth and said, “Hi how are you? My name is Zaria, I’ve heard so much about you so I had to come and speak.”

“Oh really, and who has been telling you so much about me?” he asked.

“My girl Kior! She talks to me all the time about how much she is into you but she’s not sure how you feel about her. I told her it sounds like you like her a lot but she still has some doubt,” I said convincingly.

“Damn, I didn’t know she felt like that. I told her that I really like her and enjoy her company so she should know how serious I am about her,” he poured out.

“Well, maybe you should do something real special for her, something that is surprising to her, that she won’t even expect.”

“I’ll have to do that, maybe take her on a weekend getaway.”

“That would be perfect! Exciting as it is, I promise to keep my mouth shut and not ruin the surprise.”

“Cool, thanks for the heads up ma!”

“No problem, well I’ll let you get back to work. Nice meeting you.”

“Same to you.”

The first phase of my plan was done. Now it was time for me to go back to my room and get some rest; better yet, I had something else in mind.

Me: Hi Ahmir, I’m sorry to bother you and I hope you’re not busy but I just came back from the club. I thought that I had my room key with me and my roommate has not gotten back yet so I’m locked out. I was wondering if it would be cool if I could chill in your room until my roommate gets back?

Ahmir: Why didn’t you go to one of your homegirl’s room?

Okay this nigga is being too complicated right now.

Me: I’ve tried to get in contact with them but unfortunately, no one answered their phones.

Ahmir: A’ight, I’ll be outside waiting on you.

Me: Thank you so much!

Fifteen minutes later, I was walking up to Ahmir’s dorm and as promised, he was sitting outside waiting on me.

We headed up to his room and I asked, “Where is your roommate?”

“He went home for the weekend,” he replied.

“Oh, okay.”

In my mind, I was so happy because there would be no interruptions. When we got in the room, I plopped down on his bed as usual.

“I’m sleepy so I’m about to lay down, you can lay across the bed if you want, just wake me up before you leave so I can make sure you get back to your room safely,” he said. But little did he know, there was not going to be any sleeping just yet.

He laid in the bed and drifted off to sleep. I waited until I knew he was in a deep sleep and I decided to get what I came for. I took his manhood in my mouth and went to work like I was trying to find the tootsie roll in the center of the tootsie pop. That was all it took and he was in full effect. He twisted and turned me all types of ways. The one thing that he forgot to do is wear a condom and that was alright with me. We were going at it for about an hour before we both came and passed out. When I woke up it was almost six in the morning. I got up, got dressed and told Ahmir I was ready to leave. He walked me downstairs and told me to let him know when I made it to my room. One thing was for sure though, I had one of the biggest smiles on my face and no one could remove it.

KIOR

Dear Diary,

It has been two weeks since Ahmir and I became a couple and things have been going pretty good between us. I still haven’t had the chance to tell DJ Spin about my relationship with Ahmir but he sent me a message saying he wanted to hang out with me Friday. He said he had a surprise for me and even though I shouldn’t be going, it would be a better time than any to talk to him. Zaria has been coming around me even more like she’s trying to be my best friend or something. I have to continue to keep my eyes open for her. In the midst of dealing with my own problems, I try to be there for Chanel while she’s going through a rough patch with Jeremiah. I truly believe Jeremiah really has feelings for Chanel but he has been dealt a bad hand. Anyway, et me get ready for my last class. Ughhhh I hate biology but I have to take it so I might as well get it over with. Talk to you later!!!

I left out of my last class for the day. I was so ready to get back to my room so I can relax before starting on some of my homework. Homecoming week starts next week and I have two papers due but I’m trying to attend all the events that are going to be happening. I pulled out my phone and called Ahmir to see if he wanted to order pizza later on after he got out of football practice. Since homecoming was next week, it seemed like the football team had practice day and night so we were not spending as much time together as before.

“Hey baby, what’s up?” he answered on the first ring.

“Hey, I wanted to see if you wanted to order pizza later on after you get out of practice. We can watch movies and spend some time together,” I said.

“I’m cool with it. I’ll hit you up as soon as I get out of practice. I’m about to get a quick nap in boo so I’ll talk to you later.”

“Okay bye,” I said.

“Bye.”

When I got to my room, I started thinking about Chanel and her situation. She has been telling me that Jeremiah has not been acting like himself since the day she got the phone call from that girl Erika. She told me that he has been getting frustrated very easily and his temper is at an all-time high. Everything seemed to set him off. I could not believe this was the same Jeremiah that we met our first week here. I guess he has a lot of stress and pressure on him right now.

I worked on one of my papers for my English Literature class for about an hour. When I got to a stopping point, I put my pen down and closed my notebook and decided to hit Malorie up to see what she was up to. With everything going on with me, I hadn’t had time to catch up with my girl. We definitely have to talk about the current events that are taking place in my life. I dialed her number and waited for her to pick up. While the phone was ringing my phone began to vibrate letting me know that I had just received a text message.

The person you are trying to reach is unavailable at this time please leave a message at the sound of the beep. *BEEP*

“Hey Malorie this is Ki, I was calling to see what you were up to. I haven’t talked to you in a minute and we gotta catch up ASAP. Give me a call back when you get a chance.”

After I left the voicemail, I opened the message that was sent to me, it was DJ Spin letting me know that he couldn’t wait for me to see my surprise Friday and he hoped that I liked it. To be honest, I was a little excited myself but I just hope we could remain friends after I tell him about Ahmir. I kind of distanced myself from him because I thought it would be the best thing to do.

Me: Lol so you’re not going to give me just a little hint on what the surprise is?

Spin: Nope, you will see Friday.

Me: Ughhh, I really want to know but I guess I will have to wait then (sad face)

Spin: Don’t be like that ma it will be worth the wait I promise!! (smiley face)

Me: Okay..... can’t wait!!

I really didn’t have anything else to do for the day so I turned the television on and decided to watch one of my favorite shows, “Martin.” I grabbed a Gatorade out of our mini refrigerator and a bag of chips to snack on. My phone started ringing and it was Malorie returning my call.

“Hey girl what’s going on?” I answered.

“Girl just getting out of class, I had a late class today. I got your voicemail, what’s going on?” she asked.

“Stop by here before you go to your room.”

“Okay.” She said.

I hung the phone up and about ten minutes later there was a knock on my door. I told her to come on in and she came and sat down on my bed. I gave her the run down on everything from Ahmir and I becoming a couple to DJ Spin and then finally Zaria.

“I don’t know Ki, you might have to watch out for that girl because something is not right with her,” she said.

“I know, that’s the same thing I said. If she knows like I know, she better act right because I will give her the business if need be,” I told her.

“I know your crazy ass will,” she said laughing, “But now I have something to tell you. I have a new friend that I’ve been hanging out with. That is another reason why I have been missing in action.”

“Whattttt! Go head girl, so what’s his name and when am I going to meet him?” I pried.

“Well his name is Justin and he is very sweet, not to mention fine as hell. Girl, he got muscles for days! We are just friends, nothing serious but I will let you meet him some time soon.”

“Awww shoot now, I can’t wait to meet him. I’m so happy for you. Let me find out we all got boos now. Hot damn, come to college for an education and get a man in the process,” I said while laughing.

“He’s not my man yet!”

“He will be soon though,” I told her.

We chatted for a little while longer then Malorie said she had to go so I got ready to take a nap until Ahmir got out of football practice.
