📍India and Durk's House
"You like himmm." India teased.
We were talking about Von coming to the studio today.
"He fine to be honest but I don't like him." That was a big ass lie.
"Okay girl." She said side eyeing me. "But I was really worried about you, you just disappeared. And I know you weren't just sick."
"What do you mean, I just had the flu I didn't wanna come around yall with that." I lied.
"Layla, no offense, but I can tell somethings wrong I've only known you for a little while but you seem so drained and detached."
I sighed. "I just been going through it lately to be honest, but it's getting better now, I'll be fine." I said smiling.
"You know you can always talk to me." She said squeezing my hand. "It's okay to let it out. You don't gotta be strong all the time."
I nodded. "I know, thanks Indi." I said hugging her.
"Anyways." She said getting off her stool. "You want something to eat? I made salmon and rice." She said taking out some plates.
"Yea, you be throwin down it smells good as fuck." I could cook but I didn't do it often because my mom mostly had frozen foods and once I moved out I ate a lot of fast food.
"Let's go in the living room and watch a movie." She said handing me my plate.
We went and sat down in the couch and put a movie on and talked about random stuff
An hour later
"Layla, Layla." I heard India say as she shook me.
"What?" I asked getting up.
"You fell asleep, you wanna stay in the guest room tonight? It's really late."
I nodded and we went up stairs.
"You can sleep in here, the bathroom is through there and it's some towels and stuff in the closet along with some clothes I never wore you can find something to sleep in."
"Thanks India." I said smiling at her.
"No problem sis, goodnight." She said before going to her and Durk's room.
Durk ass been knocked out since I got here he sleeps like the dead.
I went in the closet and got a towel and rag and something to sleep in then went into the bathroom and took a shower. I found a pack of toothbrushes in the drawer so I used one of those then I went and laid in bed.
