Azul looked at her radio and groaned. She wasn't sure who was fucking with her playlist but all the songs that played had her in a mood. Chris Brown's Under The Influence had her turning it up.
"I can make it hurricane on it. Hunnid bands make it rain on it." She sang as she snapped her fingers. "Sing that shit Chris. Whew. Make you tattoo my name on it." She danced in her driver's seat.
A tap on her window made her jump as Messiah looked her over with a smirk. She laughed as she rolled her window down. "You did not see that." She pointed at him making him laugh.
"Why the shop closed?" He asked letting her know he wouldn't speak on it. Azul sighed as she looked over to the boutique. "This nigga bitching. What you got going on?"
"I know you not talking about the same nigga who been mia for the past week." She frowned. He licked his lips as he pushed his hands into his hoodie.
"I can't speak on that."
"And this is why I don't listen to your ass when you tell me he fucks with me." She rolled her eyes before rolling her window up. Azul was about to shut her car off when Coco Jone's filled her speakers. "Oh he gotta wait."
She turned the music up and tapped her fingers against the steering wheel. "How come when I see your name on my Lock Screen I already know what it means. I was rolling in his bed, you was rent free in my head. I thought I was done with that lease."
She moved left to right. "Come on Coco what you say? Me, I been putting all this work in. And you still got a place in my mind. Why it's gotta be your way, I want it to be mine."
"What you think this is foreplay, must be out of your mind. They tell me to ignore it, don't you think that I've tried." She sang at the top of her lungs forgetting Messiah was watching her.
"I know when you said goodbye, you ain't mean no goodbye. Here we go uh, oh. I know when you get to liking my pictures it time. Here we go, uh oh." A tap at her window made her glare at Messiah. He laughed.
She shut her car off and got out. "Don't be rushing me when I'm in my Coco bag. That's about your stupid ass cousin." She pointed to him. He laughed waving her off. "Let me guess you're here to pick up his shit? So he's done with me."
"I told you I can't speak on that."
"You know what, I'm not going to keep being ignored by his stupid ass. If he's done with me he's going to tell me himself." She scoffed as she walked to her boutique. Azul unlocked the doors letting Messiah in.
He stepped around her and moved to a couch taking a seat. Azul walked over to the counter setting her bags down on it. "You going piss that nigga off." Messiah warned her but she ignored him as she grabbed the store phone. Azul copied his number into her own before hitting the call button.
Messiah scoffed as he placed his hands behind his head. Azul listened as the phone rang. When it went to voicemail she frowned. Azul pulled the phone from her ear and called again. "What?" Ezekiel spat into the phone.
