Few Days Later

Karma knocked on Eric's door as she held papers in her hand. She had finally gotten word back from Suge and it was true that he was stealing from not only the dancers but also Karma herself. Hurt was an understatement on what Karma was feeling. Andre had already made his exit now it all fell on Karma.

"It's like 11 what you doing here so late ?" Eric asked as he opened the door and she came in

"I just really need to talk to you and I couldn't wait till the morning." She says as she sits on the couch and he sits nexts to her

He quickly glances at papers as he felt his heart sink. He already knew once Andre came to him soon Karma would come.

"You leaving too huh ?" He asks her as she looks at him

"I can't let myself get fucked over Eric." She says to him as tears start to form in her eyes

"You want to leave K , You can leave I'm not stopping you." He says dryly to her

"Eric if you'd look at this shit you'd see that Cube was right from the jump and we could've caught on sooner if we listened." She says to him as he stares straight ahead. "Your not even fucking looking at me." She says raising her voice

"I don't want to hear about this shit K. Like I said you want to go be with Andre you can go and exit out Ruthless and take whatever you want with you." He says to her as she chuckles bitterly. "Is this why you been acting so fucking weird lately ?" He asks as he looks at her

"I haven't been acting weird."

"Not coming home for three weeks and barely talking to ya man is weird as shit. On top of that you've been high as fuck not being your fucking self." He says to her as she stands up. "Oh you mad now ?"

"I'm leaving E." She says as she tries to walk to the door but he softly grabs her hand. "Let me go E." She says as her voice cracks as he looks at her

"You leaving me too ?" He asks her as she avoids eye contact. "Look at me K." He says to her

Karma looks him in the eye seeing his softened facial expression and his brown sad eyes. His heartbeat was increasing hoping that she'd stay and they could forget about everything.

"Your too stubborn for this shit and you won't listen to me about it. If your loyalty is with Jerry fine but I'm not sticking for it." She says to him as she starts to take off her rings. "I can't trust Jerry anymore and I don't know if I still trust you."

"You don't mean that K." He says to her as he shakes his head. "So what about all the shit we talked about huh ? That's just going down the drain."

"You think I want this shit to happen !" She yells at him. "I envisioned a whole fucking life with you , I planned on having your kids, I let the world know I feel about you. This shit isn't easy but if I can't trust what the fuck is going on in this shady ass business , How am I supposed to trust what we have when you can barely listen to me when I have to talk you about it."
