Sade jumped up out of her sleep drenched in sweat. A week had passed since the day from hell, but the reoccurring nightmares seemed to be there to stay. After Stephon was arrested, Carmelo dropped Sade off by Dream’s place, where she’d made herself a permanent guest until she found somewhere else to live.

Checking her phone, the time read 2:37 a.m. “Ugh, it’s too damn early for this shit,” she groaned, flopping back down into the bed, frustrated.

She laid there wide awake. Thoughts of Carmelo crossed her mind. He’d been a man of his word and checked on her daily. Sade felt a strong urge to text him but also didn’t want to be the one waking him up before dawn. She sighed, tapped on her Kindle app, and continued to read the book that helped her escape the real world.

Five hours later, Carmelo called like he’d been doing every morning.

“Hello,” she answered, groggy.

“Good morning, love. It sounds like I woke you up.”

“I didn’t even realize I fell back asleep. You’re good though. Good morning.”

“I’m headed your way, get dressed.”

“What?” Sade quizzed as she wiped her eyes.

“I said I’m on my way there. We’re going somewhere nice for breakfast. I’m cashing in on my rain check today.”

Sade giggled and replied, “You do know that’s not how a rain check works, right? You have to let the other person tell you when it’s a good time.”

“It’ll be a new year waiting on you. Thanksgiving was yesterday. And speaking of, I’m still salty you didn’t accept my invite,” he joked.

Sade didn’t respond. It’s not that she didn’t want to go, but she thought it would be strange being around people she didn’t really know on a holiday meant for families. To add insult to injury, Stephon posted pictures of his newborn all over social media, putting Sade deep in her feelings.

“Hello?”

“Yes, I’m still here.”

“I was just messing with you. I understand. My mama will be alright. She’ll meet you another time,” Carmelo stated with confidence.

“You told your mama about me?”

“You tell your sister about me?” he countered.

“You make me sick.” She laughed.

“Gone and get up. Dress comfortable because we might do some other stuff today, too.”

“What kind of other stuff?” Sade probed.

“Black folks ask too many questions. Be ready in thirty minutes.”

Carmelo ended the call. Sade smiled to herself because she looked forward to being around him. Other than a few video calls, they hadn’t seen each other since the day of the baby shower, arrest drama. As she tossed the covers back, Dream slung the door open without knocking and pounced on the bed.

“Good morning, sunshine!”

“How did you even know I was up?”

“I heard you on the phone with my brother-in-law, Carmelo,” Dream teased.

“Whoa, tiger, let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. We’re just friends. It’s barely been a week since I called off my engagement with Stephon,” Sade stressed, holding her hand up in a stop position.

“Girl, fuck his Power Ranger, tryna be two people ass.”

Sade laughed out loud and
