I was pleased with the news I got saying I was certainly getting out of the hospital. I ran into Ro'Shawn's muscular arms and inhaled in his Versace Eros cologne. He ran his fingers through my wet curly hair and kept his grip tight. My tears soaked his shirt while I was thinking of the past event with Marshall and I. I knew that I was not ready to move on but I just needed the support from someone close to me. Ro'Shawn has visited me everyday at the hospital and I really appreciated his presence. For the past few days I felt something between us but I just kept it humane. I have genuinely caught feelings for Ro, knowing damn well that I shouldn't. We all know that I'm not ready to move on! I hopped in his Bentley and as he drove to his house. The ride was really quiet, we didn't really have anything to talk about. I still have to find out about Marshall and what was going on with me getting shot. Even though I don't want talk to him, I'm going to give Marshall mercy. We made it to Shawn's place and he turned the engine off heading to open my door. I got out and was amazed by the architecture of his house, it was beautiful. He opened the door and let me walk inside first. I ran my hands across the gray marble counter and shiny silver faucet. My observation was interrupted by Shawn speaking to me almost scaring the living peace out of me.
"I see that you are enjoying the house.", He said.
"Yeah, I am this is so awesome!", I said sitting down on the couch.
"Well, I'm glad you like it.", He said smiling.
"So, when are you going to take me to get my stuff?", I asked looking up at him.
"Whenever you feel like it.", He simply said.
"Okay, Can it be now?", I asked getting up from the couch walking towards him.
"Yeah, sure thing.", He said grabbing the keys walking out the door hold my hand.
On the drive to Mama B's house was pretty turnt up Shawn and I were just having little dance offs at almost every red light. I was laughing so hard I was a bright red! We pulled up to the front of the house and got out walking to the door knocking on it. Mel opened the door along with Belinda behind her.
"Oh hey Leah." She said giving me a long warm hug.
"Hey Melly Belly.", I said letting go of her.
"Hi Leprechaun.", Belinda said giving me one of her goofy smiles.
"I love y'all.", I said kissing them both on their cheeks.
"Love you too, but who's this?", Mel said pointing her fingers towards Shawn.
"Oh, so this is the incredibly cute and famous Ro'Shawn I've been hearing so much about.", She said embarrassing me.
"Yeah, I'm him but I don't know about the famous." , He said smirking looking at me.
"Okay, lets move on we don't need to be held back Shawn!", I said dragging his hand behind me going up the stairs.
"Damn, Leah I'm coming girl, you act like niggas can't socialize or nun", He said getting the next box going down stairs.
"My nigga you know damn well it ain't social hour, quit playing and get to work", I said trying to pick up a medium sized box.
"That's why your little ass can't even pick up a box that's half your size.", He chuckled.
"So I don't care, I have short people problems; you'll never understand!", I said as he grabbed the box out of my hands.
"Whatever, are you done screaming?", He asked coming back upstairs.
"Well, since you said something I actually do." I said getting up from the floor coming to his face.
"Continue.", Ro simply said.
"Okay, you need to know I'm the boss nigga, you ain't running anything!", I said pointing my finger in his face.
"Oh for real?", He said getting closer to my face.
"Yeah!", I shouted so the twins can hear the commotion between Ro'Shawn and I.
"Keep putting your finger in my face there's really gon' be a problem Ma!", He said.
"Well my finger is still here and I don't see you doing anthi-(GCO)
This boy is freaky as fuck! He sucking my finger but it all came back to me when his ugly ass bit it.
"Shit Shawn, now you eating my finger the fuck!", I screamed.
"Well if you put your finger in my face like that again there's gonna be a bigger problem!", He said getting the last box by the widow walking out.
When Shawn left the room I had time to think over the past events with Marshall, Ro, and the memories of living in this house. I'm going to make sure I visit them, they're still my family even if we're not blood. I left the room thinking: Am I making the right decision?
