Tara nodded and pretended to fan herself.
“He coaches basketball for a junior high school,” Keisha added. “You’d have a lot in common. Let me set you up.”
“No!”
“Why not? So you can cry over a guy who lives in Hong Kong?”
Kimani blew out a long breath and took a drink of her strawberry margarita. “Fine. But just one date.”
“That’s all it takes.”
Tara raised her glass. “To fine motherfuckin’ brothers.”
Kimani clinked glasses with Keisha and Tara. Deep down, she knew it was too soon to be dating. She would rather focus on her new job, and she needed time to work Ben out of her system. But it might take a while for that to happen, so maybe it was better to begin the next chapter of her life sooner rather than later.
Tomorrow, she would give Ben one last try. She wasn’t expecting to continue anything with him, just the chance to apologize. If he didn’t return her call, she could write him an old-fashioned letter to that effect.
After that, she would be ready to close the chapter on being bought, ravaged and tormented by Benjamin Lee.
