My Journey to Georgia Cont.. Part 3

We finally get to his house and boy was I happy it felt like an oven in there. He introduced me to his mom, aunt and sister and asked me to wait for him in the living room. His mom had asked him to go to the store for her. I felt real uneasy about waiting for him while I had to sit there with his family. I had not expect him to introduce me to his family so quickly. We had only been talking for maybe a month.  As I sat there his mom asked me a question (again feeling uneasy) about how I met her son. I told her we met at the stadium and that we were just friends. He came back and I was never happier to see him  then at that moment. He took me by the hand and lead me to the back of the apartment. His room was painted blue and I was kind of wondering what the heck is wrong with him. I was thinking a grown man with a blue room but learned that it’s his favorite color. I sat on his bed and he knelt down in from of me and grabbed my hand. I thought to myself I know this fool is not about to propose to me. Instead he just telling me how beautiful I was and how he really felt a connection  with me. Again, I’m thinking to myself is this guy serious. I was ready to go right then. I just looked at him and smiled as he sat there and kept looking at me. He did the weirdest thing while still sitting on the floor in front of me. He put his head on my lap and took my hand and placed it on his head. I was guessing he wanted  me to rub his head. I was not the type to be all touchy feely at all. I just kept it right where he laid it at..lol.. I guess I was being a bit mean at the time. Remember I wasn’t really into him like that yet. However I knew that I had to make that trip back to Queens so I had no intentions on staying to late. We talked a little longer than it was time for me to go. He walked me back to the train station (where I was suppose to get off at) and he stayed with me until the train came. I knew he was going to want a kiss but I didn’t really want to. What I did was wait until the train was coming  and gave him a quick peck on the lips and ran upstairs to catch my train to go home. I got on the train and wondered the whole way home, if I was ever going to see this man again.That was the last time I seen him that year (1997)  . We talked off and on the phone but after awhile I just ignored his calls. Yes, I was being mean and acting stuck up at the time. All I could think about was how fast his feelings were growing for me and he had a child. I had issues with men and didn’t trust them at all. I had built up a wall and believe me it took big tools to break it down…lol..

The year was over and now I was looking forward to a brand new year (1998). I was still living in queens but going back and forth to Brooklyn to see my family. My Godmother (who I lived with) had reunited back with one of  her goddaughters  who she hasn’t  seen in years. My god sister was now in the music industry and working on her 1st album. She had done a lot of backup singing for different artist before working on her own. I really didn’t remember much about her because she is older than me but I did remember how beautiful her voice was. She is married and has 2 kids a boy and a girl. She asked my godmother to go on tour with her as a backup singer.  Yes, my godmother agreed to go with her. My godmother is very talented and so are her children. While my godmother was on the road singing, we were having a blast in Queens.Try living with 5 boys (god brothers) not including their guy friends and dating.  It doesn’t work believe me. We could never bring anyone home at least not guys anyway. It was only 2 females in the house; me and my god sister. I remember once I was dating this guy and I use to meet him at the end of the block because I knew had he came to the door it would’ve been drama. One day he decide he wanted to drop me off in front of the house instead of by the corner. I warned him about my brothers but he didn’t care. I guess he wanted to show me that he had the balls to face them. So, he dropped me in front of the house and as I anticipated…. to be cont..
