My phone chiming woke me up. I was sleeping so good. I wanted to cry. Glancing at the clock on the nightstand, I saw it was already ten. As I threw the covers off me and got up to brush my teeth and shower, Shane knocked on the door. “Come in.”

“Hey Ree. I’m about to head out. A car will be here to pick you up at six. Pray blessings on me for today’s game.”

“Always. Thanks, bruh. See you later.”

“A’ight.”

When he left, I brushed my teeth and started the shower. Then it dawned on me that I hadn’t checked my message… the whole reason I was awake. Going back to my phone, I started my music, listening to Kelly Rowland’s new album. When I went to my messages, I saw it was from Ross. I had never checked any of his previous messages and I didn’t know if I wanted to go back and read them. I opened the thread and his last message said. Good morning gorgeous. I hope today is the day you respond.

That message made me go to the ones before it. They were filled with promises to be everything I needed and pleas for me to talk to him. But one message caught my attention, because it was kind of long. Ree Ree, I need you, ma. I didn’t realize how much until now. I ain’t the begging type of nigga, but you got my heart in such a short amount of time. Damn. Respond to me. I’m trying, ma. You got a nigga tripping… feeling like one of these broke fiends. I ain’t even dipped into half of who you are, but shit, when I do, I already know I’m gon’ be a full-blown addict. Real shit. Call me, ma. I miss you so much.

I swiped the tear from my cheek. Seeing how much he cared for me already was overwhelming. A soft thug. He was like my daddy in so many ways. That was what made me willing to put my judgments to the side and text him back. Good morning, Exodus. Today’s the day I respond. I hope all is well with you and that you’re making progress on what I know is going to be a hot album.

I sent the text, then thought about how disconnected I seemed. So I sent another one. I miss you too, Ross.

Just as I was disrobing, my phone rang. I figured he would call after the second message. Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm my nerves before answering, but that shit didn’t work. My nerves seemed to be bouncing off each other all over my body. “Hello?”

The line was quiet for a moment. I knew he was there. I closed my eyes to hear him with my heart. It felt like it had dropped in my chest, because it was like I could feel his sadness. Finally, he said, “Ree Ree.”

Damn. It was like a whisper and it brought the tears from me once again.
