"So, what's up?" Dave asks. He sits on the stool next to Layla and pulls her towards him so he's embracing her nude body. Luckily both Dave and Layla have no reason to be insecure or self conscious in front of each other the idea of being nude without having sex didn't cross their minds once.
"My dad wants to have dinner." Layla says. She pushes always from Dave and walks around the island to grab a drink.
"So?"
"You have to come."
"And?"
"Well obviously you can't be up on me like you are 25/8. But..." She says in a sing-songy voice. "He set me up."
"He what?"
"Set me up."
"What do you mean? Like to kill you or some shit?"
"I told you he set me up and you assumed my dad want me to kill me?" Layla said sarcastically.
"I don't fuckin know. You say 'set you up' like you excited or some shit." He says shrugging. He takes Layla's drink from her hand and swallows it all at once. "We both know you need me. And this magical dick." Layla scoffs.
"Don't start. I' be havin you on cloud nine, nigga. This nani is better than any drug you sell right now." She rolls her eyes. "Anywaysss. I don't know. I thought it'd be fun."
"Why does your pops even wanna put you on? Ain't he fuck up you and ole boy's relationship anyway?"
"Yeah, it's a deal type thing going on. This dude in LA has a few sons and my dad figured this would be good for business."
"So, it's an arranged marriage."
"Yes and no. I mean- yeah. But I don't have to stay with him...Just until he dies. And I'm pretty sure they're all fuck ups so they'll probably overdose soon." Layla says. She pours another drink snatching the glass from Dave.
"Wait. Wait- Why are you so calm right now? What the fuck?"
"Relax, Dave. I got it covered."
"Nah I mean you should be upset. Like you way too nonchalant right now and it's getting me tight, for real for real." He says.
"Dave relax. I don't plan on fuckin'em. But when in Rome, am I right?"
"You must've forgotten this is ma shit you in. Don't get fucked up, Lay."
"No, you don't get fucked up, Dave. You need to chill out. Like I said, I got it." She says pulling her panties up. "Fuck outta here. Don't forget who I am."
"My bitch."
"I'm nobody's bitch, Dave. Never have been. Never will be."
"It's lookin like you're Daddy's bitch. The way you keep breaking your back to keep him happy when all he does is fuck your head up."
"Dave, the only one breaking my back is you. Both physically and mentally." She throws her hair over her shoulder and grabs her jacket. She walks towards the exit but stops to kiss Dave's cheeks then whispers in his ear. "Talk bad about my father and I will fuck you up, Dave. See you at dinner in two weeks, I'll send the addy by then!"

"I don't miss no ex, I don't miss no text
I just choose not to respond..." Layla sings along with Sza as she curls her freshly new wig. Layla and Dave have been avoiding each other- Well more like Dave has been avoiding Layla. Layla's never been one to worry about a nigga so she's usually not the one to reach out to Dave and since he's decided he didn't want to talk to her, they've been on a "break".
