NOBODY

As LaMelo waited for Mari to show up, he argued back and forth with Ana on instagram. Originally she wasn't even supposed to be at the estate today so in his mind, it's her fault she got her feelings hurt.

Melo wasted no time in switching apps, going back to Instagram while waiting for Mari.

On the road, Mariah was at a red light, thinking to herself. What the fuck am I doing? Am I seriously about to go pick this nigga up? There's no telling what he'll do when he gets in the car.

She didn't know what she was thinking, letting him control her like that, and in front of EVERYONE? Nah, he had her fucked up, she thought. The sudden change of the atmosphere in the car pulled her out of her thoughts.

"Bitch Ass Nigga Named LaLiar is calling"

The A.I voice of the car read out, stopping Rod Wave from playing through the speakers.

Pressing the green accept button on the steering wheel, she waited for Melo to speak.

Melo- How far are you?

Mariah- Fuck you, I'm not coming to get you. Call your little granny.

She said, pulling back onto the freeway. On the other side of the phone Melo groaned in annoyance, knowing she'd snapped out of her little transe. He could only control her for so long until she came back to her senses.

Melo- And why not?

Mariah- What do you mean why? Are you stupid or something? You called me a homie hopper in front of your whole family and tried to embarrass me on the internet.

Melo- Okay but I told you I was sorry.

Unbeknownst to LaMelo, Gelo had made his way downstairs to get a water bottle but stopped at the corner when hearing his younger brother arguing with someone on the phone.

Mariah- What the fuck am I supposed to with that? You and I know damn well you're not sorry.

Melo- That may be true, but I love you.

Mari wasn't having it.

Mariah- Stop saying you do, liar. You love the idea of loving me. Plus, you broke both promises.

Her defiance was making him angry. How dare she not listen to him?

Melo- Fine. Be like that Mariah. Just know, when I get back to Charlotte, I'm gone make your life a living hell.

He huffed, hanging up the phone. Gelo's eyes widened when hearing the last part of his younger brothers sentence. Luckily, he hadn't been spotted. In that moment he didn't want the water anymore. So he quietly but quickly went back up to the room.

Gelo- E!

Closing the door behind him, he rushed to the bed where Evoni sat, scrolling through Instagram. His sudden appearance made her jump, slightly out of fear.

Evoni- What??

Gelo- I think you're right..

Evoni- About what?

She asked, sitting up to look at him. Gelo didn't want to believe the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Gelo- Melo manipulating Mari.

This peaked Evoni's interest. She wondered what might've happened for Gelo to believe her.

Evoni- What happened?

Gelo- They were on the phone, and he said when she gets back to Charlotte, he's gonna make her life hell.

Her eyebrow raised in surprise. Now this was definitely a turn she wasn't ready for.

Evoni- What do you mean make her life hell? Do you think he's gonna put his hands on her?

The last thing Evoni wanted was for Mariah to be getting hurt physically by Melo.

Gelo- Nahh, as wild as he might seem, pops is right. Melo'd never lay a hand on her.
