I've been living with Jonathan for a few weeks now, which is crazy considering we've only been together for a few months. Since my house is being renovated and this is just a temporary move, I only brought my clothes, a few bags, toiletries, and other essentials. The actual day I moved in wasn't a big deal—I brought my things, Jonathan cleared space for me, helped me put everything away, and that was it. The only thing that made it feel real was when he handed me a key fob to his penthouse.

He's been attentive and welcoming, and I really appreciate that. We kinda have a routine now which is him bringing us breakfast when he gets done working out at the ass crack of dawn, and me lounging around the penthouse doing nothing when he doesn't ask me to come with him to work.

I ended up staying home today while he went and did some work with Sharife. I'm out of school for a few more weeks so I don't have anything to do.
I laughed at Spongebob and Patrick running from Doodlebob before feeling my phone vibrate for a split second.

I looked down at my phone and saw a few text messages from Laila.

Laila...

Wyd?

Nothing probably finna go to the grocery store in a few minutes

Wyd?

Nothing just got finished with my last client for today.

Wanna get drinks this weekend?

Yeah where we going?

Idk...

Lol okay we'll figure it out

I finished texting Laila and got up from the couch before going into the closet to find something to wear to the grocery store. If I were on my side of town I would've worn anything, but Jonathan lives in a nice area so I want to look more put together. I pulled out a black lululemon set and put on a pair of asics. I haven't been in the mood to get my hair done so I brushed my hair into a low bun. I grabbed my purse I was using this week and headed to the nearest grocery store. I drove in silence thinking about random things, mostly what I was gonna eat tonight. I finally pulled up to the nearest grocery store which was a bland ass Trader Joe's.

I browsed around the grocery store grabbing everything that looked appealing to me.

I should've ate before I came.

I continued to browse around the grocery store and eventually made my way up to checkout.

I grabbed my groceries from the cart and placed them on the belt. My cashier was an older woman and I gave her a small smile.

"How you doing today baby?" She asked while slowly scanning my groceries.

"I'm well you?" I asked, trying to make small talk.

"I'm living, you know any day God wakes me up is an amazing day."

I nodded my head in agreement. Her words brought a sense of comfort. "Amen. I know that's right."

I need to go to church.

As she scanned my groceries we made small talk about God, and the conversation flowed easily.

Eventually she finished ringing my groceries up and we exchanged goodbyes before I headed to my car.

I loaded my groceries into the car and made my way back to the penthouse. The drive was uneventful unless you wanna count the standstill traffic due to a wreck.
