"Mahzi." He heard a raspy voice. He glanced over at destiny who was very tired.

"Wassup?" He questioned looking up from his phone. "where's my phone?" She asked.

"I put it on charge over there." He pointed. "and I think you outta call Tommie back." He pointed.

She shook her head laying it back down on his chest. He placed his phone down on the nightstand and leaned down to kiss her.

The two were still friends. They just kissed a lot more often. When he pulled away, he spoke.

"You hungry?" He asked pulling away and climbing out of bed. "No but I-i have to go. I got work tomorrow." She yawned as he slipped his shirt on.

She stood up as well and slipped her pajama pants back on. "call In." He shrugged.

She rolled her eyes. "get a job, Mahzi. That's not how they work." She explained and he smacked his lips. "I got a job. You tryna make it seem like I'm just sum bum ass nigga." He mumbled.

She grabbed her phone and seen 10 missed calls from tommie.

She walked to his dresser and stood in the mirror as she began to dial Tommies number.

"Who you calling?" Mahzi questioned while wrapping his arms around her waist.

"Tommie." She mumbled. He leaned down and rested his head on her shoulder. He began to place soft kisses there.

"M-mahzi..." She gently pushed his head away as Tommie answered. "Tommie did you cal-" she was cut off.

"Yes. I called ten times. Never fucking mind now." He sounded serious. "um...ok. What did you need?" She asked.

"Nicole was trying to kill her self. Her man got murdered in prison." he explained. "What....is she ok?" He asked.

"I don't know. She's in a hospital about to get referred to somewhere and her mama got her daughter." He explained.

"You know....you a sorry ass friend. Your friend was on the verge of taking her life and you laid up with hazel's brother...you sorry as fuck." He shook his head before hanging up.

Destiny sighed placing her phone down. "you good?" He asked lowly.

She nodded. "yeah." She turned around and wrapped her arms around his neck.

He leaned down and the two shared a small kiss before she decided she had to go.

Destiny walked into the room of the hospital and it grew quiet. She ignored the stares she got , as she sat down.

"Look who decided to show up." She heard Tommie. "don't start." She shook her head.

"No , imma start cuz why did it take ten calls and an hour to get to you?" He spoke.

"Tommie , it's fine. Sit down." Hazel shook her head. "I was sleep Tommie. It's over now. I'm here now. Now you just wanna fucking argue." She went on.

"No cuz hazel told me you was with that nigga. So dick is more important than yo friends life?" He asked.

"We didn't fuck. I was sleep , like I said." Destiny stood up. "Call me when she's up." She mumbled.

She ignored tommies words as she walked out of the room and to the elevator.

She waited on the elevator a little upset. She was upset because she felt bad about leaving Nicole. But she had work in the morning and Tommie was definitely making it harder for her to stay.

She reached her car after getting out of the hospital building. She hopped in the car and pulled off.

She began on her way home. The whole ride was silent and calm. She was a little scared. It was just one of those days she wished she was still a little girl living with her parents.
