Chapter 12
Sabrina walked into her condo and walked to her under the counter wine rack and opened up a bottle she was saving for a special occasion. She reached up into her cabinet and grabbed one of her favorite wine glasses and poured herself happy.
She turned on her sound system and pulled her phone out to click on her favorite H.E.R. playlist. She sat her wine down and reached for her jar of pre rolled relaxation. She looked around just for a second for her lighter before she just decided to use one of the flames from her candles to light up.
She inhaled a few financial woes and exhaled financial stability. She inhaled a few other frustrations concerning her career path and exhaled a clear view of her future.
Sabrina leaned back on her couch and closed her eyes envisioning a future big enough for her and everyone else she loved to fit inside.
With her eyes still closed she said, “Alexa, Call Fal!”
“Hello, thank you for calling. This is Fallon Rae. Please leave a message or send me a text.”
Sabrina said, “Alexa, hang up.”
“Alexa, text Fal ‘Girl I can’t believe this is my life, thank you so much. Call me as soon as you get this. Don’t hurt that driver too bad with his fine ass. I know you girl. I know why you got that phone off.”
~~
“I mean she ain’t super fine or nothing but she super sexy bro!”
“So, what you gonna do?”
“I’m pretty sure your little sister don’t want me messing with anyone that works here.”
“Yeah, she don’t want you just running through the women, but do you think she is someone you can be with for real or what?”
“She seems like the wife type I think, and to be honest I’m ready to settle down for real for real.”
“She smart too! I would just wait a little, watch her and see what’s up.”
“Thanks Taj.”
“Yeah man. If lil sis ends up having a problem with anything concerning you and ole girl, just tell her that I told you to go for it.”
“Oh, you better believe I am if there is ever a problem. I cannot have boss lady upset with me. No sir!”
“I know that’s right, lil sis don’t play.”
~~
“Hello.”
“Hello, may I speak to Miss Rae?”
“You may be looking for my mother.”
“No ma’am, I’m looking for Danisha Rae.”
“Oh, well then that’s me. How can I help you?”
“My name is Tanai Fisher. My CFO told me about your mother and then he told me a little about you. I just wanted to reach out to you and talk to you for myself.”
“Okay, are you one of my mother’s clients or something?”
“Or something. What would you like to do with your life?”
Danisha looked at her phone and saw an incoming call.
“Hold on one second please ma’am.”
“Hey Auntie Brina.”
“Hey baby, where are you?”
“I’m at the house, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing’s wrong. I’ll be there in a minute okay?
“Hold on one second, someone’s at the door.” Danisha sat the phone down before Sabrina could say another word.
“Nooooooooooooooo baby don’t-”
