It was 11 am and Chris was on his 3rd blunt. He was stressed out his mind. Ever since that phone call with Jazmine, he had been nervous and stressed. Even rehearsing on how he would even tell Karina and each time he thought about possible outcomes, it always resulted with Karina punching him in his shit. He decided to call one of his close friends for advice.

"Bro, I need advice."

"What you don did now?" His friend sighed and chuckled. Chris smacked his lips.

"Nigga why you always assuming I did something?"

"Nigga cause you always doing something! Hell you talkin bout." The friend laughed. "So what is it?"

"Man...I cheated on Karina."

"Wait...you cheated on what Karina? Not the one you with now?"

"Yea that Karina."

"Damn you don't ever learn yo lesson...that cheating shit is what made Karrueche leave yo ass-"

"Don't bring her up."

"Nigga I'm bringing up how you treated her. She was a good girl and you dogged her ass out too. Now Karina? I already know it's not looking good for you." Chris sighed. "So what you gon do?"

"Imma tell her...I have no choice."

"I say don't."

"I just said I have no choice."

"And why not?"

"Cause...the girl I slept with is apparently friends with Karina now and she said that either she was gon tell her or I tell her."

"How the f- Chris how you sleep with her friend nigga?"

"Bro they became friends after we slept together. I think that bitch set me up but she claim she didn't. Been hanging with her for months."

"That do sound sketchy as fuck but hey. You got to say something for sure."

"Karina gon leave my ass-"

"I would leave yo trifling cheating ass alone too." His friend laughed.

"Man fuck you." Chris hung up and took another hit of weed.

"Karinaaaa, you have more flowersssss!" Aaliyah said as she walked in her room with another bouquet of flowers.

"What in the world." Karina said with a smile. Chris had sent flowers every day this week and she didn't know why, but she loved it. One of the flowers even came with a beautiful 14K White-Yellow Gold Diamond Tennis Bracelet which shocked her the most. She called Chris to ask what it was for and say thank you but he didn't answer. He just texted her. They hadn't talked on the phone the whole week, which was strange to Karina but she just figured he was busy or sleep.

"I wish my man sent me flowers every day." Aaliyah said with a playful frown. "I'm trying to get like you." Karina smiled and shook her head.
