Move in day?

Source

The start of a new year comes with fresh starts, new beginnings and for me?, a new apartment.
And finally it's move in day.
"I'm so excited for you, no offense you know I love you but your old apartment was a dump". I turned to my best and only friend Kiana,a girl who has been solid with me from day one and smiled.

"Maybe you should move in here instead, I mean you're way more excited than me about the move".
She stopped twirling, "I'm just really glad, you know after the messy breakup with Eric".
I flinched at the mention of his name. Yes it was that bad.

Seeing the look on my face she smiled sadly, "Sorry I know his name isn't allowed near you, especially in your new killer apartment". She squeals and twirls like a princess making me laugh.
I really don't know what I would have done without Kiana.
"So did the movers say when they would be here?"
"They will be here soon, what do you want to do in the meantime?"

"You could give me a tour again or-". She stops her eyes catching something, "Well, well, well, if it isn't my lucky day. The previous owner left their coffee maker".
She moved closer in the direction of the kitchen, " Look they left coffee beans too and cups too"

"Kiana we don't know how long those have been there, besides-". I was interrupted by the sound of Reyanna's So pretty blasting from her phone.
"You brew the coffee. I really need to take this"
I rolled my eyes, typical Kiana.

Checking the expiry date, I realized the beans were still good so I followed her lead. When the coffee was all done I took a sip. I closed my eyes and sighed.
Perfect just how I like it.
A honk from outside interrupted my mid day bliss.

"Keisha!!!, they are here!!!"
"Why are you screaming?, You're like three feet away?"
"Stop being a grinch, you love me and you know it"
I can't argue with that.

We walked outside together. I stay put while she rushes to hug one of movers.
Kiana would change the world one day with her beautiful energy I just know it.
"Hi Keisha". I wave at Derek, the guy Keisha hugged.
"You guys ready?", moving towards to direction of the boxes.
"Ready when you are", one of the movers replied.
I sensed it before I opened the first box to confirm.

"Kiana could you come over here for a minute?".
She rushes to me, "What's wrong?"
"These aren't my things"
"What do you mean my this are not your things?"
"Check"
"Derek!!!". She all but screams.
He comes rushing,"What's going on?"
I tuned Kiana out as she argued with him.

I knew this was too good to be true. Something just had to go wrong. I knew throwing that empty candy wrap would come back to haunt me one day. I should have waited till I was near a bin. Why did I have to litter?. The day has finally come when-.
"Keisha". I snapped back to reality.
"Sorry, what did you say?"

She rolled her eyes," Derek said your things got mixed up with some other guy's things. He called his boss. They've contacted the guy. He is on his way here".
"Why?. I don't want some random dude knowing where I live. What if he comes back to take me at night?"
She looked confused, "Take you?"
"Yes take me, as in carry me away"
"Why would anyone just come and take you?"
"I don't know"
"Then why would you say it?"
I don't know Kee Kee". I screamed. She flinched and I felt bad.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I am really not just liking this".

She took my head and rubbed around in circles. "It's going to be fine. He will be here soon and you guys will talk it out, arrange with the movers and have this whole thing sorted out".
I sighed, the hand rubbing was doing the trick, "Okay "

We waited together outside the new apartment. I really could use another sip of that coffee.
I turned to head inside when I heard the most intriguing voice.
"Hello I'm Ethan, which one of you is Keisha?".
Spinning around I met the most beautiful face I had ever seen.
Kiana pinched me knocking me out of my daydream of flowers and weddings.
"It is I, I mean I am Keisha".
He smiled,"Well I guess we need to get this sorted out".
I could only nod.
"I just remembered something, I have that stuff I need to do. Bye girl". She left before I could say anything.

"Do you want to come inside?, I brewed some coffee"
"Black?". I nodded.
"Well Keisha I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship". I laughed leading him inside.
I smiled shaking my head. I thought so too.
