6:25 PM BRONX,NY MALAI'JAH APARTMENT
MALAI'JAH POINT OF VIEW
"moveee" i laughed as elijah kissed around my face
he didn't respond but, just grabbed my by my waist and pulled me closer to him. he head laid in the crock of my neck and i continued scrolling on my phone as he looked at the screen me. as i scrolled a notification popped up and it showed that it was a response to my story with the heart eyes.
"who dat" he asked me
i shrugged swiping over to go see. i tapped the message and the whole chat was the dude making replies to my story. i felt my phone slide out my hand and seen elijah just sitting up scrolling through the messages . he went to the page and looked through it before he spoke.
"this that nigga that be on the block with them old heads" he mugged
i shrugged again not knowing who he is .
"you not gon say nothin" he looked at me
"what am I supposed to be sayin " i looked at him confused
he didn't answer me but, instead kept going through my dms.
"nah, why he texting you" he asked me
"how am i supposed to know who you talking bout if i can't even see the phone elijah" i looked with a blank face
he turned the phone showing me, dudeylo , one of his opps in my messages.
"how am i supposed to know" i looked at him
"you was texting back though" he turned the phone
"you buggin" he got up , walking out the room
"bro what"i grabbed the phone looking through the messages for myself
"bro be deadass" i went down the living room seeing him putting on his shoes
"where are you goin" i asked him
"ion wanna talk"
"so you just gon leave" i asked him and he nodded
"did you even read the messages before you started buggin out" i asked him getting loud
"what i needa read em for, you shouldn't even be talkin to the nigga in the first place"
"this was mad long ago bro, and he was tryna get at me and i was tellin him leave me alone and never even replied after that. everything else is just him talking to his fuckin self" i shoved the phone in his face making him look at it
he scrolled through them again but, this time actually reading them. he gave me the phone back and put is hand over his face and i noticed him taking his shoes back off. i rolled my eyes walking back to my room and closed the door behind me before getting back in my bed.
"i'm sorry ma"
"mhm" i laid down scrolling on tiktok
"i am, ian mean to get tight like that" he laid down tryna hug on me
"get off my bed with that outside coat on" i said still not looking at him
"that's what you worried bout right now" he sat up at the bottom of my feet
"yup"
"stop being mad" he rubbed my leg
"i'll think about it" i stayed on my phone
he sucked his teeth before walking out the room. i let him and took my space and i heard my apartment door close. i sat up and got up walking out the room seeing his shoes gone.
'he cannot be serious right now' i thought
i nodded to myself before getting back into my bed. i turned off all the lights and closed the curtains in my room, making the room get dark. i laid down under the covers , that just really made me upset .
>> 25 minutes later >>
i heard a door lightly close and slight noise. i then heard the noise get louder before hearing my bedroom door open.
"ma" i heard elijah's voice
his coat shuffled which i assumed was him taking it off.
"you sleep" i felt the bed go down from the slight added weight
"what" i said softly
"here" he said before i heard a bag
i turned and rubbed my eyes before slightly pulling my curtain letting in a small amount of light so i could see. i let my eyes adjust to the light before looking at the big brown paper bag on my bed. i noticed a sticky note on it and pulled it off before reading
' i didn't mean to go off on you like that ma, i just don't play about you and i got mad. i know it made you upset but, i hope you forgive me. i'm sorry ma' -lijah
i opened the bag seeing snacks and a bear inside of it . i took out the bear and seen a 100 dollar bill attached to it.
'it's some food on the way for you too ma" he looked at me
i hugged him and he wrapped his arms back around me. i smiled before pulling away.
"thank you lijah" i got up holding the 100 dollar bill
i slipped it into the pocket of his coat that hung on the back of my room door.
"why you do that"
"cause i don't want it, everything else was enough"
i got in the bed holding the bear close to me and taking a drink out of the bag of snacks before placing it on the floor next to my bed. he smiled before changing into some shorts and gettin in the bed with me. he pulled me close to him and i closed the door curtain as we found a movie to watch til the food got here.
