Love is Blind: Safety Net

After the Altar Pt III.

At the Compound, Chris' POV:

"Deja please don't do this here." Jay pleaded as she stood in front of her with Jhené by her side.

It's the middle of the party and she's been mouthing off about Game. She's mad as fuck right now.

"But Jay——"

"Deja listen to me... if you blow this up in front of everybody, you're gonna give them something to talk about... a reason to be in y'all business. Let's just step outside so you can blow off some steam and figure out how to bring this to him the right way." Jay explained as Jhené shook her head agreeing.

I sighed...

"It's not fair." Deja said.

"You're right... it's not and I never said you were wrong. But, you're my girl and I don't want you to air out y'all issues like that." Jay said as Deja sighed.

As I looked around, people started to watch a little. They couldn't hear much over the loud music, but they could tell something was happening.

"Y'all let's take this outside in the back. Then, Deja you can yell and do whatever the hell you wanna do." I said as they shook their heads ok.

Game's party started a while ago and he definitely was surprised by the setup. I can't lie it was nice and his cake was sophisticated n' shit. Deja's been trying to play off the situation for a while but it's been eating her up.

One thing I know about my wife and her best friend is that if they got some shit to say, they gone get it off their chests. So, bottling this up right now is really tough for Deja.

But, I'm glad that we advised that she step out because she definitely was about to blow a few seconds ago.

"I'm gonna try to keep the party focused on Game with everybody else. You guys go talk." Jhené said as I held the door open and we shook our heads ok.

I walked out after Jay and Deja.

As we made it towards the back of the compound, I held my hand out and grabbed Jay's.

She took a deep breath and intertwined her fingers with mine.

"And he up in there giggling and shit like everything is cool when it's far from it." Deja said pacing.

"Deja I understand you're pissed and you got every right to be... but, why didn't you pull him and ask him any questions about it?" Jay asked Deja as I looked to her.

"I ain't ask him nothing cause he knows what the fuck is up." Deja said out of hurt.

"Deja... now you know you need to ask him face to face about the post and about the girl... in private. You know this already. You can't jump to conclusions without getting clear answers first." Jay said as Deja covered her face with her hands.

"Baby sit down..." I said to Jay as I pulled a chair over for her.

She sat down and held my hand as I stood over her. I know she wants to stand and watch Deja but she needs to rest her feet. We been on the move all day.

Deja spoke.

"Y'all I'm scared to ask him. Everything has gone right with us. If he's done anything behind my back or keeping something from me, it'd break me."

Jay and I sighed.

"I get it..." Jay said.

"Dej... I know you're afraid to ask. But, you won't get any answers until you talk to Game. I know that nigga and ion' see him cheating on you. That's my personal opinion. But, the longer you wait, the longer you gone overthink shit and it's gonna drive you insane. Just take deep breaths, and when he's free in there, pull him to the side cordially. Do not make a scene." I said to Deja as she stood across from us listening.
