Janae

This had become their routine. Janae would miss a date, and she’d show up at Tyreek’s place with flowers and food. He’d forgive her and give her a foot massage. They’d cuddle for the rest of the day or night. This time, Janae wasn’t sure that would be the case.

Every time she texted or called Tyreek throughout her shift he didn’t answer. The only reason she knew he was okay was because she’d talked to Honey who mentioned overhearing a conversation Kahlil had with him. It was clear Tyreek was upset with her, or maybe even disappointed, and Janae couldn’t blame him.

He’d been more than patient and understanding, and honestly, Janae had no idea why she was even stringing him along. As much as she liked him and wanted to take things to the next level, she simply wasn’t ready. And it didn’t seem fair to take her frustrations out on him because of how horrible things went with the last man she was with. People always said the first healthy relationship a person was in after being hurt was the most difficult. The last thing Janae wanted to do was punish Tyreek for her ex’s choices.

The right thing to do would have been cutting ties with him until she was ready, but Tyreek was much too good of a catch for that. She kept telling herself things would work themselves out with time. All she could do was pray Tyreek still had time to give her.

Her hand lifted to knock on Tyreek’s door, but before she could, her phone was ringing. With a groan, Janae pulled it out of her purse and hoped it wasn’t her boss asking her to come in for a double shift. Before she could answer, Tyreek was opening the door. His face was covered with confusion as he looked down at her.

“Hey,” she spoke, ignoring the call. “That’s the first time I’ve ever done that,” she admitted with a nervous chuckle.

“Did what?”

“Ignored a call from Miranda. I’m sure she was going to ask me to come in for a second shift.”

Crossing his arms over his bare chest, Tyreek leaned against the doorframe. “Why did you ignore her call?”

“We need to talk. I know you’re upset with me, and you have every right to be but…”

“Last night, this beautiful woman threw herself at me.” His confession caused the arm that was holding a half dozen roses for him to fall to her side. “The whole time we were having dinner, she tried to convince me to take her home.”

“You cheated on me?”

“I turned her down over and over again.” He scoffed. “And I don’t even know why.”

“Tyreek…”

“I sat there looking like a damn fool, waiting for you for an hour, Janae. A whole hour.”

“I know, and I’m so sorry.”

“I’m tired of hearing that, so I know you have to be tired of saying it.”

Silence settled between them. After a few seconds, Janae lifted the flowers again. Tyreek looked from them to her before taking them and moving away from the door so she could walk in.
