A Struggle Within Itself

Chapter 8

Genniffer's Pov

"Okay so that's it you didn't try nothing freaky with me while I was sleep with you?" I questioned with serious written all over my face.

"No Gen I wouldn't do that. But I do want to talk to you about what you said to me last night." Jaylen suggested.

"What?"

"About you smoking weed." My heart stopped once again. You smoke weed once and now you got nigga's bringing up stuff you ain't even wanna talk about. I rolled my eyes.

"What about the weed Jaylen?"

"You're not going to smoke it anymore." He simply said with a demanding feel. Now you see if he would of said it in a different way I would agree with him, but since he said it that way I'm not going to let him think he got me like that. Like he has control over me.

"Say's who?" I asked with sas filling my voice.

"Say's me. I don't want anything bad happening to you so I telling you not to get involved with it."

"Jaylen... Last time I checked you were my ex, not my father. So as far as I'm concerned it's not your problem to worry if anything bad happens to me. As long as My brother's drugs stays under my bed, then I smoke as much as I please." You see the thing about this conversation was that it was actually making me mad. I clearly shouldn't of said that. As soon as those words left my mouth, Jaylen grew angry and stepped up to me.

"Look I'm trying to look out for you because I care for you deeply Genniffer." Jaylen stood in front of me and glared down at me. It made me feel like I was the smallest person on earth. Jaylen took a deep breathe and then calmed his tone and backed away. "Like I said I care for you. I don't want you to get addicted to that stuff and end up a drug addict. Gen you're way too pretty for that shit." I looked into his eyes and understood that it wasn't worth fighting anymore. Jaylen still cares for me and just wants the best out of me.

"Alright whatever. I won't touch the shit anymore. It was Aqua's idea anyway." I admitted while calming the tone in my voice. Jaylen laughed. "What's so funny?"

"If it was Aqua's idea to smoke, then who's idea was it to bring up Victoria's name?" Jaylen smiled.

"Nigga I don't know I was high. Don't bring up that busty ass dollar hoe's name in my presence." I groaned catching an attitude again. I took a seat down on my bed.

"Oh I'm sorry did I hurt your feeling?" Jaylen joked. He came over pushed me down on to the bed. I rolled my eyes and ignored his comment. "You're not going to answer? Fine" Jaylen jumped on top of me and began to tickle me. I laughed until tears fell out of my eyes. Treyvian came into my room with a white beater and some shorts on and saw this.

"Will yall stop touching on each other! I need to talk to yall about something"Trey growled. Jaylen and I jumped in shock and rose to our feet.

"Um sure what is it you need?" I agreed trying to sound all calm cool and collected.

"Play a game of Uno with me"

"A game of Uno? Thats some childish shit." Jaylen complained.

"Man nah after last night I was thinking that I should make a little business, a mafia, to help sell this shit. But I wanna play a game of Uno to help refresh my brain." Trey explained.

"Okay I get the first part but why a game of Uno?"

"So you can have a view of how to run it." I intervened.

"Exactly Gen. We use to play it all the time together back in the day. Thats what I used to do with Gen a lot so I could get my brain going on how to orchestrate my money. That and a game of chess. Come in my room and I'll explain."
