Aaliyah

I practically spit out my drink when I caught Latreese parading in the party, like she was the lady of the hour. She was draped on Amir’s arm, like a cheap fur coat, and had the audacity to have her nose tilted all the way up in the air. The two of them made a beeline directly over to us and I put on my fakest smile.

“Hey, birthday boy! Happy Birthday to you, Amir.” I gave Amir a harmless, friendly kiss on the cheek, but I caught Latreese rolling her eyes at me. I played it off like I didn’t see her, to keep the peace. “Dale, this is the man of the hour and my dear childhood friend, Amir.”

“Nice to meet you,” Dale said, shaking Amir’s hand.

“And I’m Amir’s girlfriend, Latreese,” she said, extending her hand, which Dale politely took.

“Your event planner did a fabulous job with this party. I mean, it is Hollywood red carpet all the way.”

“Thank you.”

“Oh, Latreese, you’re an event planner? I had no idea. I thought Leslie’s company put this together.”

“No, I’m not, but I played a pivotal role with helping the event planner put this party together.”

“You all did an excellent job.”

“Thanks. If I knew you were in town I would’ve had them hire you as one of our bartenders. That is what you do back in Miami, right… pour drinks?”

Is this heffa trying to play me right now? Do I pour drinks? How about I pour the rest of my drink right in your face? Where does Amir find these stray animals? I thought to myself, as I kept my cool.

“I have dabbled in bartending and a few other odd jobs. You have the luxury of doing that when you’re a trust fund baby, like myself.” Dale shook his head and laughed at my remark. Amir didn’t appear to be as amused.

“Amir, can I borrow you for a minute,” Leslie, the party planner said.

“Sure.”

“I’ll be right here waiting for you,” Latreese said, batting her eyes.

“Babe, I need to take this call. I’ll be right back,” Dale said, before walking off.

“I guess that just leaves us,” Latreese quipped.

“I guess so. Hopefully both our dates will be back soon.”

“Dates?” Latreese glared. “I’m beyond dating Amir. We’re a couple. Don’t you see this Neil Lane diamond necklace he got me? And this isn’t the Kay Jewelers collection, either. He got this from Cartier.”

“Does that mean it’s on loan and has to be returned tomorrow?” I sniped.

“No, it doesn’t. It was a gift,” Latreese retorted, visibly agitated.

“Calm down. No need to get offensive.”

“What is your issue with me? Are you jealous because Amir is with me and not you?” Latresse questioned.

“First of all, I’m the one that left New York, which meant me leaving Amir.” I reminded Latreese.

“I know and I’m still trying to understand why you came back. Is it because of Amir?”

“My family is here and I came back for them, not Amir. Although I’m sure you would like me to be, but there is nothing you have that I’m jealous of and that includes Amir.
