A Woman's Worth (Book #1)

Chapter 1: Trapped

Ahayah

"WHAT THE FUCK YOU SITTING HERE CRYING FOR? SHIT LIKE THIS ALWAYS HAPPENING BUT YOU STILL STICK AROUND WITH YOUR EXTRA DUMB ASS! YOU LET THAT GIRL DO WHAT THE FUCK SHE WANT AND THEN COME STRAIGHT BACK TO YOU AND BREAK YOUR HEART!? I CANT BELIEVE MY MAMA RAISED A DUMB ASS CHILD!?!" My big sister Analaa screamed..Pacing the floor of my room.

Yes she's screaming and cursing at me. Why? Because I've been a fool for the same person for over 4 years now. We've been together for 8 years though.. No matter what she do no matter what she say, I always go running back to Patience Miller. Otherwise known as the death of me. I've been with her since I was 16 years old and now I'm 23. Shit started going downhill when I turned 20 and college changed her. The first four years were amazing no cheating no nothing but love. You'd think a person would get tired of getting cheated on and played after so long but not quite. I can't let go no matter how hard I try. Or am I not trying hard enough?

First off let me tell you who I am.. My name is Ahayah Hughes. Ahayah means 'I exist' in Hebrew. I don't know my mom was fascinated in off the wall names. Anyway I'm 23 years old I live in my own place up in Atlantic City, New Jersey. I graduated when I was 17 as the Valedictorian of my class. Yup smart as hell in school but not so smart at relationships. I went to college to become a model and to dance. It ain't even take long because I have my own dance studio and I model. Sometimes I feel like my accomplishments aren't complete though I don't know why.

A description of me, I'm 5'7 146 pounds, I'm fit like I do sports or some, I have a baby doll face with thick pink lips and chinky dark brown eyes, my nose.. well it's a nose and my eyebrows stay on fleek. Ain't that's how you say it?

My hair is short and I hate it. Being allergic to a certain medicine made my hair come out bad and it's been having trouble growing back every since. I mean it can go into a ponytail and it stops at my shoulders. Its an ugly brown color so I wear weave to cover it. You'd never see me without weave in my head until my hair grows how I want it to. Yuuup that's me plain ole Ahayah Hughes. Now back to this situation where I'm crying my heart out once again the 5th time this month.

"Okay Analaa you don't have to scream and do all that I understand how dumb I am but I can't leave her. I love her with everything in me." I replied to her as my crying slowed down. "I'm sorry for screaming and cursin at you but you gotta be more smart about this Ahayah. I love you to death and I be ready to kill her but I hold myself back for the sake of you." She said rubbing my back.

Analaa is my oldest sister. Well the only sibling I got. She's four years older than me and is a successful R.N. I look up to her and everything she has or has done. I love her to death. But right now I just need to be alone.

"I love you sister but I gotta get back to work. Don't forget to call and check on our parents." She whispered kissing my cheek. "I love you too.." I watched her leave then laid back in my bed drying my face with the covers. I actually can't believe Patience is like really doggin me out. The person who helped her get through high school and college hell I'm the one who bought her that condo she live in.

She got me looking like a damn fool walking around here. You got so many females giving me these looks like I did something to them. Knowing on the low they creeping with my girl. I swear I hate going through this bullshit.

Laying in my bed brain full of thoughts I felt my phone vibrate a good 3 times letting me know I had a new text message. My heart was telling me to read them but my brain was like no. You know who that is and you need to ignore her ass. She ain't no good for you. Leave Ahayah before you wind up having a heart attack crying over this fool. My heart won this time.
