Benedict Knox - Ellington
1 week laterI 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.
