MALANI P.O.V.

Are you sure you ready to move on? You been looking kinda hurt all dinner. Duke asked as he pulled up to my house. The car ride was silent.

I'm fine....just tired! I forced a smile on my face.

Okay well get you some rest, I'll see you tomorrow.

You not spending the night?

Ima let you have the night to yourself in case you need to think about anything.

Thank you! I leaned in and kissed him. "I do like you, a lot and your every thing I looked for in a man..."

But your heart is with someone else. He answered for me. "I get it he's your first. Sort what you need to sort out and I'll be waiting for you!" He kissed my forehead and hugged me.

Thank you! I kissed his neck then his lips. He let go of me and I got out the car. He pulled off and I got in my car. I don't know what I was doing. For about a month I been kicking it with Duke hard and I mean hard. He was perfect! But it didn't seem right. I was trying to use him to get off Harlem let's be real.

I pulled up to Harlems house. And he wasn't home. I got out the car and tried to calm his phone to see if he was in the inside. But I was still blocked. I sat on the concrete stairs. It was freezing out here. Like it was about to start snowing.

Head lights appeared in the driveway as a car pulled up. He got out his car and pissed off came across his face as I stood to my feet. He huffed his breath and turned around to walk back to his car.

Harlem wait! I yelled out. "I love you! And I know you're mad at me and I get that. I can't move on from you because I'm not being real with myself. I love you, I'm in love with you. And most importantly I wanna be with you. I'm hurt that you chose any and everybody over me. You never fight for me. All this nonchalant shit just drove me into the arms of another man. I liked the attention he was giving me. Everything I ever wanted with you he was giving me!"

WELL FUCKIN GO BE WITH THE NIGGA THAN! FUCK IS YOU STANDING THERE CRYING FOR? He yelled turning back around.

Because he's not you! No one is you! I'm not complete without you. I want you!

Oh now you want me! That's funny cause just a few months ago it was we'll never be together and all this bullshit. What he do cheat on you? Still over there fuckin his baby mama when he claim he takin his daughter to school? You think a nigga really waiting over a month for some pussy! So now you wanna come back to me? I got shit to handle, I paid you back every cent and some my debt to you is paid. We good. Go fuck yo nigga and be happy. Missing is only apart of moving on sweetheart, cause I gotta protect me and my peace. I loved the fuck outta you, but I love me more. He said pissed off before getting back in his car and pulling off. I sat on his stoop and cried. This the shit I'm talking about.
