    I said, “I didn’t know I had to answer to the two of you guys. Yeah, I broke up with her.”
    â€œWhy, dude? Everybody knows that the three of us go with the three of them,” Damarius said.
    â€œIt’s our senior year. If y’all don’t wanna be single, which you two need to be because of how bad you cheat on them, anyway, then I’ma show you. You ain’t gotta be tied down to be cool.”
    Damarius replied, “But everybody knows women like a brotha that’s already with somebody. If you got game you can play more games.”
    â€œWhatever, D. We just think differently.”
    â€œAll right, do your thing, then, bro.”
    The two of them backed away and I went back out on the floor to continue dancing with Amandi. When a slow jam came on, I was about to leave. But Amandi didn’t let me get too far. She grabbed me back, pulled my body into hers and we rocked with the groove.
    â€œSo, what was that about, your boys pulling you away and all?”
    â€œMe and my girl broke up and they just want to make sure I know what I’m doing.”
    â€œYou looking for another girl?”
    â€œNo.”
    â€œBut you are looking for a good time, right?”
    â€œI don’t know.” I laughed.
    â€œWell, when that answer is yes, then come to me.” She pulled my head close to hers and planted a kiss on me I wasn’t expecting.
    The crowd did notice and a lot of oohs and ahhs were all around. Quickly, I tried to find Tori in the crowd. I spotted her as she dashed away.
    â€œUh-uh I gotta go,” I said, tugging from Amandi.
    It took me a few minutes to find Tori, but when I did she was down the street walking by herself with her hands over her face, crying. The girl cared about me and I knew that. Dang! But she had to get used to us not being together.
    I eased up behind her and said, “Hey, hey, hey. Wait a minute.”
    â€œLeave me alone, Perry. Just go back in there and get your groove on. Don’t let my being upset stop you.”
    â€œWait a minute, babe. Come here.” I wiped her tears from her face. “She kissed me . I’m not trying to hurt you.”
    â€œIf you loved me, you would be patient.”
    I didn’t know if what I felt for her was love. We’d been together for a long time, so that should be proof enough to her that I had deep feelings.
    â€œLook, Tori, I do care.”
    â€œBut you didn’t even call me all week.”
    â€œI needed some space and plus I had a recruiting visit. I was busy.”
    â€œHave you been broken up about us? Have you been missing me? Huh?” Tori pushed.
    â€œHave you changed your mind? Are you willing to do what I want, Tori?” She turned her head and looked away. “Yeah, I’m sorry. It’s a tough question for you. But I don’t want a no to that question anymore. For us to stay together, on that issue I’m needing a yes.”

    Handling My Business
    â€œ D ang, boy, you had all day to be ready,” my father said as he abruptly came into my room to get me for the Braves baseball game.
    I didn’t understand why he always had to talk to me any kind of way. I mean, couldn’t he have said, “ Son, you ready to go? ” Or something like, “ I’m just coming in here to let you know I’m ready. I’ll be downstairs waiting on you .” Not with my pops. The understanding way he talked to my sister was absent in our conversations, and now he had ticked me off. I had followed him all my life, but suddenly something in me was different now. I wasn’t having him come at me incorrectly.
    â€œYou in a rush, Pops? Go ahead and go,” I said as I sat on my bed. I started taking off my hoodie. “I’m sure somebody at the dealership wouldn’t mind going in my place.”
    â€œBoy, put that daggone shoe on and get your tail up so we can go! I’m rushing you because I gotta
