You gotta see my puppy..

So let me tell yall what happened to me.. Alright, remember when I spoke about Yesterday? Yeah, he caught me off guard, but this one… smh. Let’s call him LI. People pick the strangest times to pop back into my life. I swear, I can’t just be happy and have a break from the nonsense for more than a week or two.

You see.. Me and Yesterday were always off and on. And when we were ‘off’, me and LI were ‘on’. I met LI in 06. Young and dumb, I cared about him.. a lot, but the feelings weren’t mutual. Well, they didn’t seem to be reciprocated to me at least. I kept him around, though. He gave me what I needed at the time: attention, affection, humor, good sex, etc. Really.. I wanted to be his, but I knew that probably wasn’t going to happen.

We had our share of beef.. every other semester actually. When we were good, we were great. When we weren’t, you did not want to be in the same room with us. Around 07, things got complicated. I still cared.. He claimed he did, but he was still an asshole. He still hit me up to check up on me. Sweet, I guess.. But I had given up on trying to make he + I = us.

3 years of nonsense on top of what I already had with Yesterday.. Great. Then finally the texts stopped. Summer 09 comes around. I find someone special and LI’s off doing him. Cool. I’m not concerned at all.

And then.. I get a text.. “Babe” He can’t be serious.. I’m babe now? “U always been babe” (-_-) please. I pay it no mind. He always pulls this bs. Wednesday comes and he wakes me up with a message. I must admit I literally laughed out loud when I saw his name pop up. We play catch up. Ask him how he’s been.. No problems. Real regular shit.

I happen to slip up and say I’ll be on campus the next day and then he starts asking me to see me. -face in hand smh- “Please babe….. u gotta see my puppy” <_< did he really just say that? He’s trying to lure me to his house with a puppy. Lawd..

He’s talking.. I’m just going along with the convo. I hit him with a few whatevers..

LI: “Stop with that”
Me: Stop with that?
LI: “That whatever stuff”
Me: Why should I?
LI: “Cuz it hurts”
Me: You know that doesn’t hurt you. Why you lying?
LI: “Im serious me and u have been thru alot”

Well.. I wasn’t expecting that response. We have been through a lot. More than most people know actually. I can never take him seriously, though. That almost made me feel bad about laughing at him throughout the day. -shrugs-

So I make it to campus. Cool. I’m extremely curious as to why LI wants to see me. -pause- Ok. I KNOW why he wants to see me. Why else would most men want to see a girl they used to date? He’s trying to get me to come over to the off-campus house that he shares with his boys.. Oh yeah. I know what you’re thinking, LI. Not gonna happen.

I was so tempted to go. Not to fulfill whatever plans he had in mind, but to eff with him. Shut down his attempts. I’m happy with mine. We all know that. I was just a bit bored and needed some amusement lol [I ain't shit, I know. Word to Mr. Genius]

I told two of my boys about LI on our way to grab some food and I immediately got lectured on the bus full of RU students. They know me better than that, though. They knew EYE wasn’t going to do anything. It was more so them being worried about HIM trying some nonsense, which I fully understand. Yall care. Thanks <3

Flash foward.. Ja picks me & my boy up from where we were at. Rite Aid run [because every Rutgers student knows that R.A. has a mean LQ collection lol]. We get back to the apartment and I retell the story to her and the rest of my girls for chuckles.

Ja: I mean I understand why you wanna see him. If my ex came out of nowhere wanting to catch up with me I’d be curious as to what he wanted, too.
A: Exactly. I don’t want to be with him. Don’t wanna bone him. Just curious as to what he’s going to say.
T: But we all know what he wants..
Ja: True.. Well ask him why doesn’t he just come to the apartment if he wants to “just chill”. That way he’s not in full control of the situation.
-texts him-
A: Wow, so he says he doesn’t want to come over because he’s not comfortable around people he doesn’t know.
Ja: Excuses.
A: I know.
-texts him back-
A: He’s catching an attitude now. Funny shit.
Ja: Where they do that at?! [Damn Twitter hash tags lol]

So needless to say.. I didn’t see LI that night. Haven’t spoken to him since either. Eh I could care less. It’s not like I was the one who tried to get back in contact with him. It’s NEVER me actually. I wonder why -rolls eyes-

Anyway.. If you’re reading this, just know that I knew your intentions, LI. I knew you haven’t changed since freshman year. I didn’t really expect you to. Like I said before, I’m not that dumb, naive girl you met in 06. Yeah, we had some good times. Boo lovin in the room watching movies.. Talking about sports and such. Remember when I used to call you Yeezy when you broke your jaw? Ha.

I’m a not a sucker for your smile anymore [he was cute with all the wires in his mouth, too lol]. I don’t miss your hugs and kisses. I’m not one of these little groupies on campus, so I could care less about your “status”. You don’t faze me anymore. Sucks don’t it? I’m sure you’ll be able to fool the next one, though. Good luck with that hun.
