In Love With A Thug

Chapter 8

Chris POV

I looked phone I still haven't texted shanti back yet I knew she was gonna be pissed off at me. I just shook my head looking down at my phone lock screen picture of me and her smiling.

I hate that I have to diss her like this she probably think a nigga out here doing her wrong cheating but I'm just out here trying to make this money so we can be straight.

I just want her to understand that I love her even though I'm a thug.this is what I do hustle on the streets and get this paper.

So after I dapped up Tay I told Dre lets go so we can go back to the crib.

Me and dre got in the car when we got in the car I turned on the radio bumping Migos then I pulled off.

I scrolled through my phone to find shanti number I decided to call her I waited for it to ring I didn't get a answer I knew she was mad at me. it was after 12:30 almost 1:30 and I haven't called.

I mumbled to myself. "Damn."

I kept calling until she finally answered then she said." what is it Chris?"'I could tell she was sad by her shaking voice.I sighed.

"Shanti hear me out man this shit just came up im sorry I didn't pay attention to the time I'm so sorry for calling late. I wish we could go out Friday too but I have to handle some business." I said calmly.

She started yelling. "Whatever Chris fuck it that's what you always say but you probably still cheating on me but I don't even give a fuck no more Chris."

I was getting angry. "Look! you know that I need this money shanti don't fucking act like this.I spend as much time as I can with you dammit and no im not out here cheating on you!? I got to get this shit straight my brother and the streets need me.you know I love you girl so stop fucking tripping!" I yelled at her.

She was crying."Ok whatever I don't wanna talk no more about this shit I'll talk to you tomorrow bye" she hung up.

I just throw my phone in frustration gritting my teeth with a evil look on my face.

Dre looked he noticed I was pissed. "What's wrong bro?"

"Shanti she just been going off lately because I've been busy she say I never spend time with her or she think im out here fucking other girls and I don't care about her.What the fuck I love that girl she need to stop fucking tripping!" I said yelling.

Dre shook his head."She already know this is the life you live Chris she need to get over that shit man you a thug she know that we have shit we have to do she need to get out of her damn feelings."

Then shook my head. I dont mean to hurt her but I need to make this money.I was having deep thoughts about this shit I just looked out the window bumping to the music.We just rode in silence all the way home...

Ashanti POV :

I was so pissed I didn't wanna hear nothing Chris had to say tonight.

We made plans for Friday night but he choose to be on the streets with dre's ass or out fucking some other bitches .

I didn't wanna talk to his ass he text me I didn't text him back when he called again I didn't answer.when we finally talked I was getting even more frustrated with his ass so I just hung up told him. I didn't wanna fuss anymore I just can't do this.

I understand this is how he get money but he use to be good in school playing ball but when he started hanging with Andre it all went downhill he need stop trying to follow Andrés ass! I dont trust Chris out here I dont give a damn im overprotective over him.

I just laid on my bed looked at the clock it was 1:50 it was dark and cool outside because its October.I wrapped up in my blanket and just laid there.

My parents haven't got home yet they went on a date or something damn they been out late.I just laid my bed looking out the window then I looked at my phone it was ringing I thought it was Chris but it was Bri I answered.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hey girl why you sound like you been crying have you?" She said worried.

"No I was sleeping " I lied.

"Well tell me what happened in the hall today" she said excited.

"That boy Kareem bumped into me and I was like watch where the fuck you going I didn't notice it was him he was trying to be all nice after he bumped into me then he asked me my name I told him but it was really rude with him and I made the conversation quick."I said dryly.

"What the fuck shanti he was trying to talk to you get to know you and you being mean to that nigga he fine as hell" she said yelling.

I laughed and said." I have a boyfriend so it don't matter"

she laughed.

"So what he just wanted to know you're name girl damn" She said annoyed.

"Yea sure he did." I said rolling my eyes.

"Really shanti but I have homework to do and I have to make sure Brandon is sleep he usually get up in the middle of night since my mom is not home yet I have to do it all." She said annoyed.

I just shook my head.

I said. "Well alright girl see you tomorrow"

She said "bye" dryly.

After I hung up the phone I laid in my bed looking at the ceiling then I finally dozed off...
