I looked over at Melody as we stood outside of Mike and Jillian's house. Jillian invited us to dinner and Melody told her yes. Mel has something planned but she won't tell me.

Jillian let us in.

Jillian - hi gorgeous

Mel - hey

I put my arm around Mel's waist.

We sat at the dinner table.

Mel - where's Mike?

Jillian - playing video games

Beau - does he know that we're having dinner

Jillian - yeah, he knows.

Mike came from out of a room and went to the kitchen.

Mike - She can't cook for shit.

I pushed the plate away from me.

Jillian - Michael we're having dinner

Mike - I know. I won't be joining

Jillian - sit down Mike

She grabbed his arm. 

Mike - Jill let go of me

I looked over at Melody.

Jillian -  We have guests

Mike - YOU have guests. You wanna fuck these two, not me.

Jillian - bullshit. You always flirting  with  Melody

Mike - and? I ain't actively tryna fuck that girl.

These niggas got issues. I hope it's don't turn into no fight because I'm not helping if either one of them get their ass beat.

Beau - we about to head out

Jillian - y'all haven't eaten

Melody - we not hungry. Baby come on.

We got up and left

Melody Knox - Ellington

I looked over at Beau as he ate.

Beau - what?

I reached over and grabbed his fork.

Beau - bro back up off my plate. You have yours.  Greedy ass.

Mel - I'm your wife

Beau - what the mean?

Mel - we share everything

Beau - like hell we do.

He grabbed his fork.

I turned my back to him.

He sucked his teeth.

Beau - bro you pregnant or something. You eating a lot

Mel - no, I just haven't eaten all day. You tryna call me fat?

Beau - when did I say that?   The word fat never left my mouth.

Beau's phone rang, it was Jillian.

Beau - hey Jill

He put it on speaker.

Jillian - can I stay with y'all for a few days.

Beau - hell no. You tryna fuck me and my wife

Jillian - please. He hit me

Beau - oh well

He hung up.

Mel - you are an asshole

Beau - they situation don't have shit to do with me or you. So stay out of it  Melody. You know how you are

Mel - what you mean by that?

He sighed.

Beau - I'm not starting no argument. Good night.

Mel - no since you wanna-

He got up.

Beau - I'm not dealing with your shit right now. Get some sleep

He walked out pissed.
