30 Day Music Challenge - Day 5: A Song That Reminds You of Someone






Some years ago, there was this thin young chick that I worked with. When I first saw her, I didn’t think anything about her. I mean, she was young, thin than a mug and wasn't attractive to me.

Over time, we started to chat a little. I can remember her asking me what my nationality was. I told her African American. She meant more specific. Not knowing what else to say, I just told her that pretty much covers all Africans in America. She named off a couple of African nationalities but I didn’t really have an response cause I don’t know. It was good question but I’d have to do a family tree and ask a gang questions to get somewhat of an answer. I got some smiles out of her and she started to become attractive to me but I still didn’t think anything about it.

I didn’t think anything of our little conversation. Around the same time, this kat I knew was digging on her in a bad way. I was down with dude and wanted to see them hook up. We all ended up hanging out one night. It was cool. She came to me one day and asked if I wanted to go to lunch. I blew her off smooth cause I didn’t want to step on dude toes.

We had a few convos after that but I guess she figured that I wasn’t going to hang with her. She was cool peoples though and I felt she was down after we’ll were hanging out one night sipping on that Black Label Gin and she wasn’t sloppy acting while buzzed.

Not sure what happened to her? I’ve saw her once since we worked together. I sometimes wonder if she and I would’ve still been cool if I took her up on that lunch.

Anywho, around the 2:50 mark when I saw the video of this song, the woman kind of resembled the thin young chick, especially the part when she was looking through the window and the guy was sitting at the table. Every time I hear this song, I think of her and wonder where she is?
