Journee Rose & Syndre Caryer • Syndre Story
I went to visit my MARRIED FEMALE friend Kailani Engel to get her intake on the Manuel situation. Well she’s not just my friend she is also Jo’s (Journee), but I went to her because she’s been through a lot. Kail has always been like a big sister for me. Her advice was that if it is meant to be it will be as she rubbed one of my nephew’s heads.
Thursday afternoon Manuel texted me.
Manuel Barber: Hey Syndre, I was wondering if maybe you’d like to meet up.
Me: Uh…I mean I really don’t have anything else to do.
Manuel: Great! :-) I mean that we can meet up. See you in about 40 minutes.
I arrived before Manuel to a wedding venue. I thought to myself is he about to ask me to marry him. Please don’t be proposing… Wait why would he propose he doesn’t even know me personally. As I continued to wait I started to get hungry. So that made me think about ordering pizza because my cooking skills aren’t A1. He finally showed up 15 minutes later with me still thinking about a grilled chicken, pineapple, jalapeno pizza, Spicy BBQ wings, and marshmallow brownie. But my brain food porn was interrupted by…
Manuel: Hey Syndre Im so glad you showed up ( extends his arms out)
Me: Hey Manuel ( gets up and hugs him points towards the bench)
Manuel: Well, I asked you to meet me here. I got some advice from Terrell.. And well I think I should tell you. That a year after college I was suppose to be marrying my high school girlfriend Missy. But she decided to leave me at the alter. Every since then I just didn’t want another serious serious relationship.
Me: So you’ve been hurting for along time. Well your not suppose to hold on to hurt that long.
Manuel: I know but even men have weak moments when they don’t wanna trust again.
Me: I understand but I am hungry, am glad you decided to tell me what was wrong with you. I gotta go food is call me.
Manuel: Well that’s what I was gonna ask you…. Would you go on a date with me tonight?
Me: Night!? Like right now?
Manuel: Yeah if your up for it, I know I just sprung it up on you.go.
Me: Sure as long as I can eat. Let’s go.
We went to this bar near the venue
So basically we went ate, talked, laughed, even flirted. I had a great time. Apparently, so did he because at the end of it he KISSED ME!! I wanna say I had better, but damn I haven’t. I went home feeling like I was traveling on cloud 9. I was feeling so good my juice was dripping after that kiss amazing.
He had me feeling like I wanted to K.O. He laughed at me and my joke after he helped me up. We laughed some more then he took me home. I wanted to invite him in, but I was tired and ready strip naked.
