Damon:( on the phone with his friend) man Dmack it's tough, first my grandma and now her mama, on top of her being pregnant it's a lot

Dmack: I already know bro, I know y'all both hurting but y'all gotta be there for each other

Damon: sighs) I'm trying but she don't wanna be bothered

Dmack: you did the same thing to her, only thing you can do is just try. She pushing you away but she need you more than anything

Damon:you right

Dmack: I'm praying for y'all, if y'all need anything just hit me up

Damon; thanks man we really appreciate that

Damon pov: I had a decent day at work and I was so ready to get in the bed with my girl. When I got home her car was gone. I figured she went to clear her mind for a bit, but when I got upstairs something ain't feel right. I noticed her drawers were open and some of her clothes were gone and her suitcase. I instantly picked up my phone and called her. I kept calling and calling and she wasn't responding. Man I hope she good for real.

Kenya pov: after I got off the phone with my brother earlier, I packed me some clothes and left. I just needed to clear my mind and didn't want to be bothered with nobody. I drove all the way to Dallas to see my bestfriend India.

India:(opens the door) hey big mama !

Kenya:laughs) hey Indy

India:(hugs her) how are you doing?

Kenya. I'm so tired I just needed to get away for a few days

India: you know I work like crazy, but the guest room is all yours make yourself cozy (bringing her suitcase inside )

Kenya: thank you...
