kk🦋.

"babe hurry i need to take a shower" i yelled at juju from the bathroom.

"im almost done love" she yelled back.

a few seconds later she walked out with her hair down.. she was wearing a hoodie with nike pros & her lips were glossed.

"your so cute" i said to her kissing her lips.

"mm thank you baby. my hair did not wanna do right so i just said fg it and left it down" she said.

i grabbed my clothes & went to the bathroom and showered. i had my hair and makeup appt today and so did juju.

we were both getting our nails, white & small. ofc because of basketball season we would be able to manage with them.

i finished my shower & walked out, i saw juju getting dressed. i went up and grabbed her butt.

"girl you play so much" she said laughing.

"no but why you actually thick tho ?" i asked.

"wym actually ? baby i been thick" she said.

we finished getting dressed & headed out to our cars. we were going to different people obviously.

"see you later baby.. i love you" she said as she closed the door.

we walked side by side down the steps.

"i love you" i said as we kissed and then went our separate ways to our cars.

i got into my car & turned the ac asap. my anxiety is so bad so the sweat finna start rolling. i pulled out after i saw juju drive off.

i got out and went inside the hair salon sitting down in the seat. i showed her the picture of what i wanted. she started and i got on netflix and continued watching greys anatomy.

juju🌸.

"omg so cute i love it" i said to my hair stylist.

i handed her the money and hugged her thanking her. because she did squeeze me in at the last minute so i paid extra cus i am really grateful your girl was desperate.

i walked to my car and headed to my nail appointment. they were gonna be short and plain white so it shouldn't take long as well as for my feet.

i got out and walked in hugging her.

"hii pookie, and thank you for choosing me to do this for your special day" she said.

"always mya for doing them for me.. yk you my go to" i said and she smiled.

me and mya have been friend since we were in highschool. although i played basketball she was on the dance team and she can really dance. she came up to me one night after a game and asked about my lashes and we've hit it off since.

she finished my nails & toes by 1 p.m. and my makeup appt is at 2:30. so im finna go jada's house until it's time.

i got up and hugged her after paying. we talked a little bit more and i left. i went to jada's house.

"omg you look so pretty" she said hugging me.

"thank you baby, you look good too hair eating, nails eating" i said.

"girl are you nervous ?" i asked.

"does it show ?" she asked wiping her hand down her shirt.

"yes ma'am it does. girl relax your gonna get drafted" i said and she smiled at me.

jada🎀.

"i'm not really scared of moving i just the new environment i would have to get use to again" she said and i nodded.

"girl same i been in cali all my life and knowing that i might have to move kinda scares me. i feel like it's gonna be a lot on me" juju said and i nodded.

juju left to go to her makeup appointment and i decided to get ready. even tho the draft is here in cali this year it's still so stressful lord.

i went upstairs and i saw bronny in my bed watching tik tok. i grabbed my clothes and went to the bathroom and got dressed. i came out and i saw bronny staring me down.

i could feel my cheeks heat up i was definitely blushing. he still makes me nervous like why are you looking at me like that ?

"you look gorgeous ma" he said hugging me.

"thank you baby" i smiled at him.

he leaned down and kissed my cheek as he hugged me tighter.

"im so proud of you yk that ? you have overcome so much but your gonna be so great. imma always be here to support you" he said.

"aww thank you love.. i really appreciate. i love you" i said and he smiled.

"i love you" he said leaning down he kissed me.

it was so bittersweet because me and bronny are most likely gonna be separated. there's not way he's gonna go to the lakers and im gonna go to the sparks.

and with that being said im still grateful for this opportunity so i am happy with whoever i get.

kk🦋.

we sat down for the draft to start. and boy was i nervous i felt my leg bounce up and down my anxiety was through the roof.

i looked over at juju's table and smiled at her she looks so beautiful. i saw her mouth the words "relax your okay" to me and i nodded.

"you look beautiful" i mouthed to her.

"and you look beautiful" she mouthed back.

it's kind of bittersweet because i don't have relationship with my mom and my brother couldn't be here physically.

so my auntie and cousin showed up for me and i have always been so close with them. she's like my mom & my cousin is like my sister i am grateful to have them here with me.

i watched as juju sat with her parents. they looked so proud of her and i am as well.

juju🌸.

i continued to look at kk in hopes that she was okay. she didn't have a mother or father. her brother couldn't be here physically and ik it's a lot on her.

i watched as she happily smiled with her auntie and cousin & that made me happy. rayah, aaliyah, paige & moura all flew in for the draft.

they began the draft and everyone listened quietly.

"and the #1 pick in the 2027 WNBA draft.. the chicago sky selects juju watkins" i got and hugged my parents. i looked over at kk and she smiled at me.

"proud of you baby" she mouthed to me..

"thank you" i mouthed back going onto the stage. i held the jersey and i took the picture.

"juju congratulations on being the number one draft pick. how do you feel about this & how did you keep going and stay motivated ?" she asked me.

"thank you! i feel amazing, and it was hard not gone lie but thats life.. i wanna thank GOD cus none of this would be possible without him. but i come from a family where we don't give up. i would like to thank my parents who has been there for me every step of the way. from travel ball, to late night practices, and so much money that came with it. i love you mom and dad. and too my friends thank you guys! for everything."

"and to my fiancé, who also helped me through my hardest times nobody saw it but she did. she saw me at my lowest and picked me up. i really appreciate you baby. thank you." i said looking at her. i wiped my tears and smiled at the camera.

"thank you juju and congrats" she said.

"thank you!"

"proud of you" i said.

"thank you jay jay" she said smiling at me.

"and the #2 pick in the 2027 WNBA draft the las vegas aces selects jada williams" she said. i got up and hugged my parents and my sisters.

i smiled and walked to the stage and took a picture with the jersey.

"jada congratulations, what do you want your new team to know about you ?"

"thank you! & i want them to know that i am hardworking and dedicated and i am willing to do anything and whatever to bring home another championship."

"but through it all i want to thank GOD, he did it all. this is not possible without him. to my mom and dad & my sisters thank you. you guys really kept me going through all the trails and tribulations. i appreciate you guys so much" i said looking at my family.

"and too my boyfriend bronny, thank you. for everything. when i said i couldn't do something he made me realize i could. he was the first to step up and help me to see my potential. he continued to give me a ball & pushed me to be my best. thank you baby" i said to him.

i looked over at jada and smiled.

"congratulations so proud of you" i said.

"thank you kk" she smiled at me and i nodded.

i was so happy juju and jada it doesn't even matter that they're before me. i think they both deserve it.

"the 3rd pick in the 2027 WNBA draft pick.. the connecticut suns selects kk arnold" i smiled and got up hugging my auntie and cousin.

i walked onto stage and took a picture with the jersey.

"congratulations kk! do you feel like your transfer from uconn bettered your situation and do you feel like it played a part in your draft decision ?" she asked me.

"thank you.. yes i feel like it did better my situation. because i felt stuck in shadows at uconn but usc gave me the chance to shine and show what i got and im forever grateful. i do feel like Connecticut chose me because i was at uconn and im okay with that. the suns are an amazing team and full of such talented players and i cannot wait to be apart of that.

"i would like to thank GOD. because even through my hardest times he was there. he held my hand through all of it & he never let go. this would not have been possible without him. shoutout to my auntie and my cousin because they've been such a big help when it came to practices and games they never missed one. i love you guys" i said to them.

"and my fiancè she saw me at my lowest real talk. the girl who dealt with my different mood swings. she was the one who helped me see my confidence i had lost so much. she made me realize that i am good enough. she was there through thick and thin. she was there through it all. i'm forever grateful for her. so thank you baby. for everything i love you" i said looking at her.

"i love you" she mouthed to me.

"congratulations kk your gonna be amazing"

"thank you" i said.

THIRD PERSON🫧.

after the draft kk went straight to juju. she hugged her tightly.

"omg #1 draft pick ? congratulations baby. im so proud of you" she said hugging her.

"thank you my love. im proud of you. ik how you feel about 3rd place & i want you to know that im still proud of you wether you got 3rd or if you 24. don't be discouraged my love.. your gonna be great" she said kissing kk's cheek.

"i love you" kk said to her.

"i love you beautiful" she said back.

"omgg my babies we did it" jada said running over to them.

"yes we're so proud of you" juju said and kk nodded.

"im proud of you guys" group hug she said.

they hugged and they could feel more people. stronger muscles hinting they were males. they already knew it was bronny and bryce.

bronny🖤.

"congrats guys so proud of all yall" i said said.

he grabbed juju's hand and hugged her tightly.

"you did it best. i told you. that silly little dream you had back in 5th grade.. it came true and i told you it would. i said to her.

"aww thank you bron bron. for everything we been through so much together and you got me through so much" juju said.

when juju and bronny had to do an assignment on "career day of what they wanted to be when they grew up" juju said she wanted to be a professional basketball player.

10 year old her had her heart set.. almost all of her classmates & even her teacher laughed. they didn't think it was possible. she remembered sitting in the back of the class crying. she then began to call it a "silly little dream" not even having the faith anymore.

and there was bronny , she watched as 10 year old him stood up for her. their teacher was shocked to say the least and all the children ended up crying.

at that moment juju knew they were gonna be best friends forever. he forced her onto the court when she lost faith in wanting to play basketball. he pushed her so hard that she began to fall in love with it even more than before.

"thank you best.. for helping me with my silly little dream. it came true couldn't have done it without" she said to me.

i hugged her tightly. i watched as paige, rayah, moura, and aaliyah ran over to us.

juju🌸.

"OUR BABIESSS YALL DID IT" they yelled hugging us.

we did one big group hug. it was good to be in their arms again. especially since we were all going our separate ways.

"im gonna miss you guys" i said as tears fell.

i didn't really plan on crying until after we had to pack and leave.. but man.. these are friends my brothers and sisters. one of em is my future wife. and having to be so far away from them is so gonna be so hard.

"alright yall let's go make the best of this last little time we have together" bryce said and we nodded.

we took pictures before deciding to head out. going back to our apartment to eat and chill. bronny's draft isn't until this friday so we had time to still pick out a cute little outfit to go support him.

"next up bron bron" i yelled.

"YUHHHHH" rayah said.

"too new beginnings" kk said.

"new beginnings" we yelled clicking our glasses together.

"man y'all trifling" bryce said making us laugh.

"ain't no way yall put apple juice in my wine glass" he said.

"again your to young to drink" jada said.

we ate & played games as we talked. it was bittersweet but chi-town im ready to work! and ik kk's excited too shes going to a team with a bunch of goats fr.
