Different

Thought You Was Tough

Dakota Banks-Chicago Illinois 4:00 AM Tuesday,

"Dakota I don't know what else to do he only wanna get the Kids if that bitch tell him to he never just wanna come spend time wit them on his own that shit frustrating" Nikki ranted while letting out a loud sigh,

"You know that he love his kids tho Nikki I'm not gone say I understand what you prolly feeling but you can't keep depriving them from they dad or they gone grow up hating him" I said while brushing my hair into half up half down hairstyle and propping my phone up against the mirror

"Imma drop them off tommrow I don't want shit to be this way but he need to get it togther and stop letting her dictate all his decisions" I nodded my head while applying my edge booster to the side of my hair "I'll tell him about his self today when he come back to the house don't worry sis" i watched as she nodded and smacked her teeth,

"Here kota they acting like they dyin ta talk to you" I watched as she set the phone down and a couple seconds later it was picked up by both Bella and Angelo "hi titi you look so pretty" Bella cheesed into the camera while attempting to move it away from her brother,

"Thank you baby I miss you look how big you got on me" I faked pouted while leaning on the bathroom counter and smiling "nooo I'm still yo baby I'm not that big yet ask mama" she said while shaking her head making me giggle "Bella dang you not the only one who wanna talk to titi move" I could hear shuffling noises as the phone screen went black.

"If y'all gone fight over it imma take it back now stop" I heard Nikki snap "hi titi when you gone get me Bella get on my nerves and ma always taking her side" angleo said while positioning the camera on something "imma come get y'all when I settle into the house and-" I stopped short as he shook his head

"I didn't say us I said me as in by myself Bella can stay here by ha self she don't need to come" I stiffled a chuckle while rolling my eyes "quit acting like that towards my baby y'all both can come" he gave me a blank expression while Bella cheered in the background,

"You on my opp list now watch yo back twin" he said before walking away making me bust out into laughter "bitch it was the twin part fa me" dess said as she walked into the bathroom "girl he act just like his damn daddy" Nikki said as she grabbed the phone and sat down

"Imma go though kota I gotta get them ready for school but I love you and I'm glad you back" Nikki said as she gave me a warm smile "thank you love you more kiss my babies for me please" she nodded her head before saying bye to dess and hanging up "her and india gone forever beef cause they inlove wit the same ain't shit ass nigga" dess said making me shake my head,

"They both gone learn one day that he his daddy son frl frl" I said while scrolling through some of my messages "diontae mad at us cause we ain't tell him we was leaving early" I snapped my head while mentally cursing myself "bitchhh I was to excited to be getting away from trey ass I completely forgot about tae tell my baby imma call him later"

I said while walking out the bathroom "girl he in Chicago he supposed to be coming over later he said he hope we ain't think he was finna stay thea all by his self" I chuckled while plopping down on the bed and recording myself "yo booty look good in that skirt whea you get the set from" dess said while rolling some of her close up and putting them inside the drawers,

I opened my mouth getting ready to speak when I heard several voices downstairs "Oop the niggas here gotta blast" she said before speed walking out the room I frowned while setting my phone down and following her,

I walked down the stairs hearing the voices get louder, rounding the corner I sucked in a breath seeing some of the men from lastnight standing in the living room while some of them stood by the stairs "girl Ion know what the fuck yo brother got going on but i ain't mad one bit" I heard dess mumble next to me

I waved her off while side stepping past them and walking towards the kitchen "Dakota yo bougie ass coulda said hi assum" I heard booka say as I picked up my pace and ducked my head,

I stepped in the kitchen letting out a sigh of relief before my breath caught in my throat

I licked over my lips while trailing my eyes over his tall frame as he leaned against the sink scrolling on his phone with one hand inside his sweats, I could feel between my legs grow hot while I cleared my throat, he slowly looked up from his phone with a deep mug,

I held a blank expression as I turned towards the cabinet and reached my hand up at the top, using the  tip of my fingers I stood on my tippy toes reaching forward trying to grab the tea box, stepping back I glanced up at him as he typed on his phone.

I reached my hand out tapping his arm gently while my heart raced  he snapped his head up looking at his arm then me before a menacing look crossed his face "c-can you help me grab that box up there" he eyed me for a second before shoving his phone in his sweat pockets and pushing off the sink,

I could smell his dior cologne as he got closer to me, I let the scent fill my nose as I backed up some, he reached forward grasping the box as his arms unintentionally flexed showcasing his variety of tattoos

"You look so different" I mumbled he set the box down and turned around taking a several steps close to me as I back into the refrigerator "whea the fuck you seen me at befoe" his deep voice snapped as he rested both hands on either of the refrigerator trapping me in place,

"Y-your mugshot from when Derrick sent me the file for you I didn't mean to u-upset you" I rushed out quickly attempting to soothe the irritation that currently laced his face, he eyed for a second before trailing his eyes down over my body and back up to my face "thanks" he said before turning and walking out the kitchen.

I took several deep breaths feeling my heart beating out my chest as my face grew hot I didn't know what it was but I knew he was going to be a big problem for me.
