Ruffian 2 (Sequel)

7.

Shanell
Later that night
11pm

Walking into the house, I kept my phone to my ear, listening to Lima and Bianca as we talked about linking up again one day this week.

Though today had been a crazy day, outside of all the drama, I actually did enjoy myself with them at the block party.

"Yeah, we really need to plan something." I agreed with them, sitting my purse down as I watched Cain dropped his keys in the key holder as he held a sleeping Mya.

"But I'll talk to y'all tomorrow, text the group chat." I told them as they agreed before we hung up completely.

When they did, Cain sat down onto the couch, holding Mya in his arms still. She laid asleep on his chest now as he grabbed an already rolled blunt from behind his ear, sighing deeply.

"You want to take her upstairs, so we can talk?" I asked him, looking at the side of his face now while he licked his lips slowly.

"Aight, Shan." He went on, stalling a second as he still sat there. I watched and waited before he finally got up a few seconds later and did as I asked.

As soon as he walked away, I let out a nervous sigh as I picked my brain for what exactly I wanted to ask him first. I'd been told so many things about him in just one day, I wasn't sure what I wanted an answer to first.

Then with Cain, he was so quick to think that I was accusing him of stuff, so I really needed to think twice about my approach.

I couldn't be scared because I needed my answers and a lot of things would change depending on them. Also though, I needed to be careful not to ruin what we'd worked so hard to build over potential lies from girls that wanted to be in my place anyway.

Come on, Shanell. Have faith in your man. I thought to myself, feeling as I was getting myself worked up for nothing.

Especially over some random lies.

He'd never go that far as to have Mya around other women and he damn sure wouldn't cheat.

I'd known that for a fact.

Breaking me away from my thoughts, Cain came back down the stairs sluggishly with the blunt between his lips now. He sighed deeply again and took a seat at the island now, sitting directly across from me as I stood.

"Yo."

"Look, before we even start talking, ma.."

"Can I eat your pussy?" He asked bluntly as I looked at him with my lips tooted, giving him a look.

"What?"

"No, babe."

"This is serious." I told him, trying to get him to take me serious in this moment.

This wasn't a game for me at all. These were serious accusations.

"Aight." He put his hands up in surrender.

"Gon' head. Talk to me."

"I'm all ears for you." He went on saying, blowing smoke from his nose as he slouched in the chair now.
