Switching Up!

Chapter 5

Keya

Knock, knock. Damn who is that knocking at my door at 1:21 a.m.? I ask myself. I rush to the door before whoever this is wakes up my dad and makes him have a bitch fit. "Who is it," I ask as soon as I get to the door.
"Your man answer the door ma," that sexy voice replies. I smile as I open the door for my man.
"Wassup baby?" He asks me with that sexy smile.
"Would you mind answering me why you're knocking at my door at 1:30 in the morning? And where have you been? And why are you all dressed up at this time of night?" I fire off question after question.
"A'ight ma, chill. First I just wanted to see you. I've been with a couple of my niggas. And is it wrong to want to look good for my girl?" He asks
"No but it's not a good time, come back later babe." I say even though I want to say 'Everything you just said sounds like a bunch of bull! So where you actually been?' But I hold my tongue and hope like hell that he told me the truth.
"You know I can't come back later. You know this is the only time we have together. You also know we can't be seen together." He explains
"I'm tired of keeping us a secret, hiding from everyone. Let's just tell her the truth! You love me I love you, what's the problem? Are you going back to her? Ya'll are over right?" I ask
When he didn't respond I had my answer, and immediately started wilding out on him. "What the fuck Travis? You keep playing games with my emotions! You lie to me and tell me you love me but its all bullshit!" I scream at him.
"Yo chill! Damn Keya you knew what this was before it even got this serious! So calm your ass down!" He screamed back at me.
"I saw you first! How dare you go to her after I approached you first?" I ask him
"Here we go again the same old played tired argument, you know what.....I'm gone go." He states as he starts walking toward the door.
"How you gone play me like that nigga you can't have your cake and eat it too." I say before he opens the door.
"Damn right I'm gone eat my cake it's mine! If you felt this way you should have said something from the beginning! I would have never let it get this far." he spat before opening the door and slamming it before I can say another word. "What a DICK! Why do I put myself through this stress? Why am I going after one of my best friend's man? My life is one big fuck-up! I want Travis, and no high yellow bitch is gone get in my way! Shit a bad bitch saw him first and a bad bitch will have him. Friend or foe he will be mine!

"Hey girl," I scream at Angel.
"Wassup ma," She screams back
"What you doing girl," I ask her.
"Oh nothing just talking to Travis, he wants to work things out," She says with a big ass kool-aid smile.
Stupid hoe.
"Ride with me to the mall," I tell her.
"That's cool I want to pick up something nice for my man," she says with the same smile.
"Oh really. I want to pick something up for mine to," I reply
"Word we got to double date! Keya I ain't know you had a man," she says with the phone still glued to her ear.
She speaks into the phone and says "Travis, baby I want to double date with Keya and her man his name is__," she pauses and asks me "What is his name,"
"It's um, well just call him Tj," I reply. She gives me a funny look like who now. But then just shrugs it off.
"Baby she said his name is Tj," she says into the phone. I know his ass is squirming. That's what the fuck he gets. I smile to myself.
"Yo Keya," Angel yells in my ear.
"Huh, what," I ask
"What day you want to double date," she asks
"Um, how about next weekend at 9 let's go to dinner and a movie, if that's cool with Travis," I answer.
"Of course that's cool, I want to see that scary movie unfriended" she replies.
"Cool now get your ass off the phone," I tell her.
She smiles as she tells Travis she will call him back later. I wanted her to get off the phone so he wouldn't be able to have her attention while I'm with her, so all he can do is hope I'm keeping my mouth shut. His ass is sweating now! This upcoming Saturday shit's about to hit the fan. Our friendship will never be the same. But I don't care, all I care about is Travis, but he feels the same way. Hopefully.
