CHAPTER SEVEN: BUSINESS DEAL
"WHERE'D YOU GET THE MONEY RIQ?" I passively aggressively helped him packed his clothes to move out from Zekes dorm. I couldn't believe this shit from him, hiding his hustling from me.
"Don't worry." He says yet again for the millionth time. I don't know if he's beginning to lose his trust in me but something isn't right, he's the one asking me to go back in after all. "I needed proof to Monet that I could do it, so I hustled a little to show her."
"Without me?!" I threw his shirt at him but he caught it.
"You were gone! Don't act like you're in a hundred percent you've been out sneaking out and shit, what.." He scoffed. "You find a nigga or what?"
"Fuck you Tariq." I spat. "I almost got myself killed by listening to you by getting close to Cane, you didn't need nothing to prove."
"We have a supplier now so there's nothing more to worry."
Huffing by his response, I knew he could pack the rest himself because it was my cue to leave. I knew it's not about drugs or money he's still hurt I left him. I leave without saying goodbye, I was tired of his bullshit.
His dorm or at least Zekes dorm was just a floor above mine, I headed over to the elevator to go back to mine. As I anxiously waited for mine the elevator finally opened and to my not surprise I see Cane waiting there.
"Not you again."
"Did you miss me?" He smirked. I decided to take the stairs since it was only two staircases down to where I need to be but he still followed. "Yo, wait up lightskin. I came by because you left your purse." I furrowed my brows not realizing I left my purse...
"What?" I see my mini purse with everything in it. "I don't remember it leaving it behind." I took it from him.
"No thank you?"
Laughing at his question, I responded. "You stopped by Tariqs floor. He's already spoken to your mom, so if you want to know what happened, I'd suggest you run back out to catch up with her."
"First off, stopped by Zekes, you know my cousins floor and secondly, maybe I wanted to see you."
"Too bad, cause I don't."
He came closer to me, I could almost smell his fresh breath. "I know you do, tell Chloé I said hi." He instantly vanished making me stunned by everything.
