Chapter 5 |Baby Shower Plans|
One full week has gone by and I never want to leave. It seems as though Marcus and I have gotten closer, but also having a friendship I have really never had. This is what it feels like to live a normal life. Not having to see blood night after night. One thing that isn’t normal is the thought of someone still watching us, preying over us. Well, until someone decides to come at me wrong I plan to enjoy having a semi normal life. Cory came over to our house to my surprise to speak to me. I sat on the sofa with Spongebob on with Zay hanging off my leg laughing at the show.
“Say, can I speak to you for a minute?” he asked. “Have a seat.” I said while Marcus made his way to the armchair.
Cory sat in the other armchair.
“So what it is you have to tell me?” I asked. “I want you to help me give Jinn a baby shower.” he said.
A smile spread across my face.
“A baby shower, really?” I asked excited. “Yea. I know ya‘ll close and everything so I need a female to throw it together so that we can just show up, you feel me.” he said. “Of course I will do it. Umm…How many people are coming so I can know where to start.” I said. “Well, we have a lot of family and friends. I want to say two hundred to be safe.” he said. “Two hundred…this is a baby shower not a wedding.” I said. “I know, but you know how black folks are when they don‘t get an invite.” he said.
I glance over at Marcus, but he was fiddling with his cell phone.
“Look, I want you to look over that list again, and find those who will buy nice gifts first. Okay.” I asked for reassurance. “Yea. That‘s cool. I do have a place set up for us. It‘s a nice reception hall downtown. I don‘t want people roaming all up in my house. If you want to check it out, let me know, I‘ll show you so you can get an idea of decorations and all that shit. Aight.” he said. “Gotcha boss.” I said watching him stand up.
He nod his head at Marcus asking him to step outside. Marcus gave him an eye before getting up and stepping out. I have so much to do in so little time. Marcus walked back inside heading to the bedroom.
“Where your going?” I asked Marcus. “Going on an errand.” he said meaning they were making some type of illegal running.
I got up walking into the bedroom to find Marcus slipping on some jeans.
“So you doing runs with Corey? I thought we promised each other that we were not going to get ourselves caught up anymore.” I said folding my arms. “I‘m not getting caught up.” he said walking up to me to kiss me on my forehead. ”Strictly business. I‘ll be back shortly.” he said then walked out.
Strictly business my ass. We will see what the deal really is…
