"Milo, come open the door." I said banging on him to open his house door.
"What?" He said talking through the door.
"Open the door." I said with an aggravated face on.
"Get the fuck off my porch Jariah." He said making me stand there with my arms crossed.
"I'm not leaving so you either let me in or-"
"Or what?" He said cutting me off.
"Or Ima stand here 'til you do..." I said. He scoffed.
"Look like yo ass finna be standing there then." I sucked my teeth before sitting down on the steps. I started scrolling through my phone. About 10 minutes later, he opened the door.
"Bruh come inside." I turned around and walked in his house. I sat on the couch and he looked at me. "Start talking nigga." He said with an attitude.
"Why you don't like me?" I asked him.
"Bro, what? You came all the way over here to ask me that bullshit?" He said making me mug him.
"Why you don't like me Milo? I don't do shit to you but here you go always dragging me." I said slapping my hands on my leg.
"Stop playing... you know why I don't mess you." He said making me shake my head with a confused ass face.
"No I really don't." I said. He walked over to the couch.
"So you just gone forget about when we first met?" He said. I still was looking confused.
Flashback (Milo POV)
"Jariah, this my homeboy Milo." Khi said introducing me to this fine ass darkskin he had met at the airport.
"What's up." I said licking my lips at her out of habit.
"Hey." She said dry. I mentally mugged her and went on about my day. I started scrolling on my phone.
"Aye, Milo. Ain't you single nigga?" Khi asked me making me mug him. I wasn't single at the time but I was. Like I was fucking with somebody on the low but I wasn't taking her serious.
"Shii, yeah." I said low, not looking up from my phone.
"I don't want him, the fuck." I heard Jariah say kind of low. Nobody else heard her but me and Khi. I didn't look up from my phone. I mentally nodded my head. I got up and went around the room dapping everybody up instead of her.
"Aye, Ima get wit' y'all later though. Facts." I said before walking out Briana apartment. I slammed the door closed and walked to my car.
A couple weeks later...
"Aye, let Ja ride in the car with us." Khi said as he put his seatbelt on. I mugged him while jerking my head back. "Aye, Ja! Come ride wit' us." She walked over to my car acting like she didn't want to get in.
"She acting weird as fuck." I mumbled as she finally got in the car. She put her seatbelt on.
I was just tryna make conversation with her and shit instead of the car ride being awkward.
"Aye so where you from?" I asked her.
"What?" She said with an attitude.
I scoffed. "I said where you from." I said raising my voice a little in a sarcastic way.
"Atlanta, why?" She said. I looked at her through the rear view mirror and she was mugging me.
"I'm just asking, tryna get to know you, type shii." I said trying to be nice.
"Hm. Well I got a boy friend so yeah." She said. I laughed.
"Aye Khi, tell this hoe ion want ha." I said still laughing. I guess me calling her a hoe was unintelligible cause she didn't say nothing and Jakhi laughed.
"Ja, you know damn well you don't got a nigga." I laughed even harder at what Khi said. So not only did this bitch lie about having a nigga, she tried to front on me.
___________
"So you don't like me because I was 'mean' to you the first month I got down there?" I asked him. He nodded his head. I looked at him like he was stupid.
"Nigga I barely wanted to talk to Jakhi, let alone you." I said making him scoff.
"Still, you ain't have to act that way. You made it seem like you was just a bougie bitch that couldn't be touched." He said making me mug him.
"I didn't say that. You just thought that about me. And the fact that you dragged that shit out till we in our late 30's, nigga you need to get a life." I said.
"Whatever. And save my number back in yo' phone." He said making me jerk my head back.
"How you knew I unsaved yo' number?" I asked him.
"Chill, I got my ways." He said getting off the couch. He walked to his room and I walked behind him. I sat on his bed and started scrolling on my phone. He hopped on the bed but sat at the top by the headboard and cut on his t.v.
"What you wanna watch Jariah?" He asked me. I scooted up on his bed and turned. My back was against the wall but I was still at the bottom of the bed.
"Umm, it don't matter for real." I said. He scrolled through Netflix and put on The Walking Dead. I was watching it for a little before I got a call from Traylyn.
"Yes bae?" I said answering the phone.
"Where you at?" He said squinting at the screen.
"I'm at Milo house. Why? What's up?" I said. He mugged me.
"Why you over there?" He asked. I rolled my eyes.
"Boy what do you want?" I asked him with a slight attitude now.
"I want to know why the fuck you over there. Jariah don't play with me right now." He said putting his head to ceiling, sliding his hand down his face.
"Because he my friend, I can come over here." I said.
"JARIAH YO! STOP- Stop playing with me dawg. Why the fuck is you over there?" He asked again. At first he was yelling and then he calmed down.
"Bye cause you doing too much." I said hanging up the phone. I powered my shit off and looked at the television. I looked to the side because I felt Milo staring at me and he was.
"What?" I asked him.
"You straight? You gotta go?" He asked.
"Nah, I'm good." I said looking back at the television. We continued watching the show until I felt it was right to leave.
"Ight, Milo. I think it's 'bout that time." I said looking at him. He was dozing off. I stood up off the bed and stretched before grabbing my purse.
"Ight." He stood up and followed me out of his room.
"I'll see you later." I said once we reached the front door. I turned around and gave him a hug and he returned the love.
"Aight." He said. I let go of him and I walked to my car. He stood in the doorway until I pulled off.
