Chapter 3: Gifts







Walking through the mall with her little sister, Ivory made one last stop to Victoria's Secret to get some more lip gloss before they made their way to the food court.

Her little sister, Isla, was exhausted from all the walking. She begged Ivory to bring her and she truly regretted it.

Being only fifteen, she wasn't in her shopping phase yet. All she truly came for was the mall food. She bought a few shirts from Charlotte Russe and a pair of jeans.

She was honestly trying to meet a boy from school at the mall. She had the biggest crush on him. He was a sophomore, while she was only a freshman.

"Come on, I know you're hungry Is'." Ivory said as the cashier gave her back her change along with her receipt.

"Finally." Was all she said before they made they made their way out the store.

They both couldn't wait to get Mexican corn with steak tacos. That's all they ate every time they came to the mall and each time, it was delicious.

As they neared the cafeteria, they passed a group of boys and Ivory couldn't notice, but to see one staring at Isla.

He was light skin with curly hair, with plump pink lips, and stood at about 5'10. He was cute, but mostly adorable to ivory because he was a little boy.

"Why is he staring so hard?" Ivory asked.

Isla signed as she wished that Ivory was one of those cool big sisters and would let her do her own thing for once.

"Yo', Isla!" The light skin boy called out.

Isla's heart began to race as she heard him call her name. She turned around and Ivory raised a eyebrow.

"Now I see why you begged me to come along. You planned this." Ivory said as she looked down at her shy little sister.

"Please Ivory, can I just talk to him for ten minutes? I promise I'll meet you in the food court." She begged.

Ivory sucked her teeth. "Fine, don't be acting grown and show respect for yourself. I'm going to make a stop at Footlocker to see if they got some shoes. Answer your phone when I call you, and you better not leave this mall." She strictly said.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Isla said before she made her way over to her crush.

Ivory couldn't help but to feel a little sad.

Her baby sister was growing up and she couldn't do nothing but to deal with it, and now she had to have the sex talk with her.

As she made her way into footlocker, she bumped into a tall figure, almost dropping her bags.

She looked up and when she seen who it was, she almost fainted.

Yusuf stood above her and she couldn't help but to stare at his freshly trimmed beard and his pink lips.
