Imani had gotten her life back together after the incident and was now living the life of a fast rising new model. She could finally say she had gotten her dream life until some of her past comes back to haunt her

The trip to California surprisingly went well the rest of the time I spent there with Billie. The situation with me and her being seen together in the airport had thankfully blown over quickly and I wasn't being bugged by April the whole time.
I had finally made it back home and unlock the front door to me and April's place. I had decided to go back home after we got back from California since I can't just ignore April forever being as we live together.
I also don't want to over stay my welcome at Billies place. She kept telling me it was fine since I've practically lived with her before but it's different this time around. I have a better, more stable life situation so now I feel like I shouldn't have to run to her again when shit gets rocky.
I step inside the apartment and to my surprise the place is a mess. There were empty drink bottles scattered on the coffee table and my books were thrown around across the living room.
I made it to the kitchen and it was no better. Dishes piled up in the sink, food crumbs all over the counter and take out food bags along the counter.
I then make it upstairs to our bedroom to see April in our bed and the room a complete mess as well. "April rosé Marie McAllister if you don't wake your dumb ass up!"
She jumps up out of her sleep looking spooked. "Oh hey, I didn't know you'd be home today." I raise an eyebrow at her while taking my jacket off.
"Clearly. What the hell did you do while I was gone? I left for a week and the place is a mess, you're not a teenage boy you're 23, clean up after yourself."
"Ok but you don't have to talk to me like I'm a teenager." I pick up a pair of shorts off the floor and throw them at her. "Well you've been fucking acting like one recently."
"Imani you're doing too much for no reason. I'll clean it up chill the hell out." With that she goes into the bathroom closing and locking the door behind her. I throw myself onto the bed letting out a sigh.
I was now back to my stressful life and needed to find a way to escape it. I love the life that I have now, no more dancing and risking my safety for money, no more abusive father, no more crazy exes and all the money I could ask for.
But it seems like whenever I start to find peace things get thrown at me to try and take it away, last time it was Angelo and my dad and now it's the media and April.
It sucks that April has gone from being part of my peace to now part of the problem and I'm just letting her get away with it so easily. If this was the old me I would have been kicked her to the curb but something in me just won't let me for some reason.
