might be.” She winked at Micah and walked back up stairs.
Minka was sitting on the bed drinking her orange juice and watching Wendy Williams when Micah walked in the room with his gym clothes on. She continued watching TV like he didn’t just walk in the room. Micah sensed she had an attitude but he didn’t know why. They were good last night and this morning she was acting stand-offish.
Minka knew she was falling head over heels with this man and in order to protect herself she needed to step back and distance herself from him but it was so hard. She wanted to spend every waking moment with him and cuddle but she knew eventually this roller coaster would stop and she would have to get off and get back to reality. A reality she was growing tired of.
“Yo , what’s wrong with you?” Micah questioned raising his voice. He didn’t like to play games and Minka seemed like she was playing one.
“Nothing . I’m just not feeling it today.”
“Look Minka, I’m not one of them niggas that play games. I know what I want and I get it. I’m not going be chasing you around like some weak nigga while you do you. I’m all in, are you?” Micah laid it out there. He was young but he wasn’t about to play mind games with her like they were in high school.
“Yeah ,” Minka answered quietly.
“Prove it.”
“How am I supposed to prove it?” she asked confused.
“I'm gonna show you . Come on.”

Micah and Minka pulled up to the Harry Winston Jewelry Store on Rodeo drive. Minka knew his jewelry and she also knew you needed an appointment weeks in advance to come. It was that exclusive.
“Boo , you need an appointment,” Minka warned Micah.
Micah ignored her and got out and opened her door to help her out. He walked in the store and straight to an Italian man with black hair and a fine tailored suit.
“Franco , long time no see.” Micah broke his silence.
“Micah , what brings you in? Who is this beauty?” Franco took Minka’s hand and kissed it.
“This is Minka. Minka this is Franco,” Micah introduced. “Franco, remember that ring we designed a while back for the one?
“Eh...I see . Is this the one?” Franco asking once he pulled out a small case. Micah nodded with a smile and Franco clapped his hands, excited. Micah and Franco walked over to the side to talk while Minka stood by the counter reading a text message she just received from Austin.
On rodeo drive? I see you finally got a man to take you out instead of just to a hotel, you whore .
Minka looked around feeling an uneasy that Austin knew where she was. Her heart started to pump as she looked around and outside to see how he knew where she was. At this moment she regretted ever knowing Austin. Minka was so busy looking around she didn’t hear Micah calling her name.
“Come here , baby.” Micah called Minka over to where he and Franco were standing. Then Micah dropped to one knee and opened the box. Minka had tears in her eyes. The text message from Austin slipped her mind completely when Micah got on his knees.
“I know it’s early and we just met a few months ago but I want you to know what I feel is real . We can learn to grow together and right each other’s wrongs. We don’t have to get married today. Tomorrow or next year but as long as I know it’s in our future I’m satisfied. Will you marry me?” Micah asked opening the box with a two carat, emerald-cut diamond set as a ring with tapered baguette side stones and a platinum setting.
` “Oh my god BABY! This ring is so gorgeous, YESS! YESS!” Minka screamed and kissed him. The proposal was spontaneous which summed up her life, so it was only right Micah proposed in that manner. Minka was so excited and hoped she didn’t make a mistake accepting his proposal so
