"Damn…" He cursed under his breath as he realized that he didn't even have her number. He looked at the clock and he wondered if she was still over at Nita's place. He made the call.

Mia was out the door and already pulling out of their apartment building's parking lot when their home phone rang.

"Who's calling this time of night?" Nita asked as they exchanged looks.

"Only one way to find out… Hello?" Avery said answering the phone.

"Sup dude where are you?"

"Where you think?" Jayden couldn't resist getting smart. Against his better judgment he had decided to go to the nursing home to see if he could help.

"What's up?" Avery asked ignoring his smart-aleck remark.

"Mia there?"

"She just left…"

There was a momentary pause as Jayden thought over his next words. Finally he mustered up the courage.

"Got her number?" Avery smiled at his question. Finally he had broken down and he knew that Jayden needed someone to talk to him not just satisfy his physical needs.

"Nita… phone…" He called out to his girlfriend.

"Hello?"

"Sup Nita… Jayden…" He said with a quiet voice.

"What up dude?" She asked perplexed as to why he wanted to talk to her.

"Listen of… I… just of-of… I mean… Ahem… You know… Of what I mean is… Of can I have Mia's number?" He finally managed to clumsily stumble out.

After giving him the information that he had requested, Nita hung up the phone.

"Think I should give Mia a heads up?"

"Na, stay out of it… Knowing Jayden he might not be able to man up."

"Oh yea, I forgot your nickname for him is chicken-shit." They laughed as they dismissed giving Mia a warning call and prepared for bed themselves.

Mia arrived home tired, upset and a little teed off at Jayden. Just when she thought things were getting better and he might be changing for the better; he might be ready to man up and act like a mature person, he goes out on some random booty call with some random woman from some random place. Suddenly she was happy that she had listened to her father and Nita. Had she agreed to sleep with Jayden, right now she would be wondering who he was sleeping with now or running around the streets trying to chase him down. Nita was right, at some point in time a man has to decide what is important to him in his life.
