Free No Apologies by Jamie Dossie Page B

you feel better. Oh! But wait, you falling in love and shit!” “Don’t shit on my love for Charles. Hell! If you try it, maybe you will like it!” “No you didn’t Ms. Thang! I know love. I love you and you only. That’s all the love I need right now.” “Now, you just trying to get on my good side Jerome.” “No, just speaking facts and if and when the time comes, when I want to live in love, I will let it find me. Until then, I am partying and having a ball, which is what you should be doing your damn self.”
       “Yeah I know, but this is where I want to be right now. I am just glad that I have you to talk to no matter what. I love you boo.” “Keep your I love you boo, u know, love you too. I’m in these streets, so I’ll get in contact with you later in the week. Take a kiss for you, bye boo.” “Bye boo.” After the phone clicked off, I was sure that my life was about to change. Just didn’t know when and where I was going to be, when it does.  Frankly, I am getting tired of this; he out and I’m in the house, in this bed alone.
       Even though I came into this knowing that we would do us; we both are free to do other people. That’s been a little over a year and damn! I don’t need to fuck no other dude other than him. It’s time we have a talk after he stroll his ass in here. I know he not gonna want to hear shit I have to say, but damn it! it’s time. If things are not gonna go any further than this, then I am going to have to leave after a while. All this fucking random people is for the birds.

      Swerving through this bullshit ass traffic in the rain so I don’t be late for my damn hair appointment with Jerome, has put me in a bad a mood. The fact that Curtis ass is still hanging out more and more these days, he says it’s his job. He putting down some great beats for up and coming rap stars, that’s doing a lot of underground work right now. He throws little hints out there; letting me know when he about to be knee deep in some pussy.  Like saying “I don’t know what time I will be home, late nights early morning” shit like that. To let me know he on some other pussy that particular night.
       Finally getting to Jerome’s shop, I can only hope he’s ready now and not in here on some flamboyant shit today. I need him ready; ready to work. To my surprise, I see the same damn red car as before. I can’t remember her name, but I know she was getting on my damn nerves. Stepping out the car with my umbrella over my head; trying to run in and not get drenched as much as I already was. As soon as the chimes over the door clanged together, four pair of eyes was looking back at me.
     
       “Heyyyy Ms. Thang, I see you finally made it out here in all this damn rain and shit. I just knew your ass was gonna cancel on me.” Shaking out my umbrella at the door, before walking towards him and giving him an air kiss, I acknowledge the person sitting in the chair getting a sharp ass edgy cut. Which means this is the one who drives the red car. “Heyyy girl! I see you are getting that damn hair laid. Shit! That style is sharp as hell. I might have to get mines cut like that. I’m feeling that.”
       “Thanks boo, you know Jerome. He may get on your damn nerves, but he knows how to do some hair. I don’t trust anyone to do it, that’s why I keep bringing my too cute ass down here in the hood.” Jerome smacked his damn lips. It almost echoed throughout the salon. Whenever he does that, it’s his way of saying excuse the fuck out of me, or you got your damn nerve. “Just have a seat in the other chair Ms. Thang. I will be with you shortly, and I don’t appreciate y’all laughing it up at my expense. “
       “Jerome you
