Hours later it was almost midnight and I was still mad. So I went to the club with my best friend Albee to clear my head. Me and Albee had a couple of drinks (a lot) and I hit the dance floor. I was dancing by myself when this girl came out of nowhere and started twerking on me. Damn she had a fat ass. I tried to walk away but now it was her and her friend twerking on me. I just couldn't resist. The music changes and for the second it was quiet I hear "REALLY ERICA." I look around the room and it was Cyn. She's walking out the club now and I'm right behind her. "Cyn" I yell. She still is walking so i run to catch up to her right outside the club entrance, thankfully my tipsy ass didn't fall. "What!  I'm so over it Erica." She said. "Over what it was just dancing you act like I'm cheating on you" I said. "You're full of it Erica, just dancing? Really? You don't dance with another bitch like that when you have a girlfriend." She said yelling. Then she added " and let's not forget what happened earlier today with that model. You said I know of all your Exs but apparently not that one. And you took your anger out on me! Not to mention I've been texting you and you haven't been responding!" "Wait what. I don't have any texts from you" I said drunkly looking at my phone. She snatched my phone and went to my messages. "Oh you don't say, I guess me and your other bitches been texting your phone" she said. Cyn showed me my phone and sure enough it was about 5 girls that texted me. "You're overreacting I got those numbers when I was in the club" I blurted out. Oops. " Overreacting, fine I'll show you over reacting I think we should take a break. She said. "Ok haha you think I'm about to cry over you" I said almost falling. "You know what Erica come talk to me when you sober your drunk ass up." She started walking away and I shouted "That pussy will forever be mines baby."

The next morning I woke up feeling terrible. A hangover wasn't the word for what I was feeling. I felt like shit. Then I remembered a little of what happened last night and I felt even worst. I looked at my messages and seen the texts Cyn was talking about. And one new one. Apparently after me and Cyn broke up I must have drunk texted Draya. And I invited her to come to my house for the weekend. Oh fuck E what are you going to do now. Draya texted and said she would be here soon. What am I going to tell Cyn...and how am I going to get her back now? 😩. I text Cyn to talk. No reply. I called her and went straight to voicemail. I decided to go to her job and got stopped at the door. Damn I guess I'm the bad guy. How am I supposed to tell Cyn I accidentally invited Draya here and talk to her about all the shit that has happened if she won't even talk to me. I really fucked up. I get a text and its Draya. She's landed and I head out to get her. Ugh if only I wasn't a stupid drunk last night I wouldn't be having these problems. Now I have to deal with Draya being at my house and trying to get my baby back at the same time. I pick Draya up and immediately say to her "listen I was drunk texting you because a lot had happened and you can only stay at my house for a couple of days." "Damn bae I see you're straight to the point, I'm here as a friend" she said winking " Um don't call me bae I have one (well had one)." "Aww trouble in paradise" she said "we're here" I said quickly avoiding the topic. I put Draya's bags in the guest room far away from me then I sat in the living room while she went to unpack. I have to get Cyn back. I've been a complete ass. If she's not answering my texts or calls I'll just take to social media. I posted a picture of us on Instagram with the caption "my better half, without her it's hard for me to stay sane" and tagged her. I looked up from my phone and seen Draya standing in front of me with a candy bikini on. "Dessert" she said seductively "No I can't" I said starting to get up she pushed me down and got on top of me. She began kissing my neck which was my weakness. Unable to control myself I kissed her and quickly came to my senses. This is not going to help me get Cyn back. This is going to push her away even further. I got Draya off me, got my car keys and went to a flower place. I picked up some flowers and chipotle and went to Cyn's house. I knock on her door and she actually answered. "Wow chipotle and flowers" she said not surprised. " I know babe this is just a ice breaker" I said. I went in and we both sat on the couch. Before she could even fuss at me I started telling her everything from Jhonni Blaze to the girls at the club. She didn't seem too mad but I know the next thing I tell her might bring out that fiery Latina side. "So remember how I told you Draya was a friend? Well she is she's just a Ex girlfriend." I said nervously "I knew that Erica I was just waiting for you to tell me" she said. Well that went well but I already know this next part for sure isn't going to go over too well. "And one more thing, I kind of drunk texted her last night when we had our fight and told her to come visit me." I said "ok" she said I could hear the tone in her voice shift. "And?" Cyn said "Umm she's here and she's going to be staying at my place for a couple of days. And I kind of kissed her." 😬 I said. Cyn's facial expression changed and I could see she was trying to control her anger. "It meant nothing" I quickly said "that's fucked up Erica, and she's supposed to be staying with you how am I supposed to feel about that?" She said it almost looked like she was fighting back tears. "It meant nothing I want you Cyn. I promise." "I TRUSTED YOU ERICA! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE MY
BITCH!" "I AM! You matter to me. Not any of these other hoes." I said. Cyn was shaking her head and crying "I'm not trying to lose you Cyn so I had to be honest with you" "Erica I really just need some time to think this all through." I break down and start to cry. I don't want to lose Cyn. I love her. "Well I guess I have to respect that Cyn." I say tears still coming down my face. I try to give her a hug and kiss and she rejects it, So I leave and go back home. I go to my room and Draya is asleep in my bed. I get covers and go to the couch.. I'm not trying to get myself in anymore hot water than I'm already in. The next day I arrange Draya's flight and get her out of my house. We argued because she wanted me to fuck her and I didn't. But anyways she out of my house so that's one less problem I have to deal with. I go to a jewelry store and buy Cyn some diamond earrings. I also buy two promise rings one for me and one for her. I knew this wouldn't solve everything but it's a start. I pop up at Cyn's house and she answers her door in a robe "well look at you mami" I say smiling. "What do you want Erica" she says bluntly. " So you not gonna let me in?" I say I start trying to peak and I can see another female on her couch in a robe too. Then I say "oh wow really Cyn" eyeing the other female. " So I see you're moving on quickly" I say. Damn it felt like someone sucker punched me. Did Cyn really just cheat on me? I mean I know I've done shit but I've NEVER slept with another women while I was with her. My eyes started welling up and I was about to cry. So I walked away and went home. Cyn texted me but I ignored her. I feel like she just broke my heart. Here I am trying to get her back and she sleeping with other broads. I should have smashed Draya when I had the chance... No I didn't mean that Cyn will forever have my heart. Then I start to realize who I am. And I always get what I want. I want Cyn and even though she cheated I'm going to get her back. Later that day I went back to her house with food the rings and the earrings. She opened the door and I forced myself in. I started looking around the place for that bitch that was here earlier so I could drag her ass. I couldn't find her so I said to Cyn " you know I love you, and I will try to forgive you for cheating but it's going to take a lot. Plus I know that bitch can't make love to you like I can." 😏 "bitch...Erica if you would answer your texts you would see that the bitch is my sister" she says laughing. "No offense Erica but I'm not like you. I would never cheat on you" That kind of hurt my feelings. Here I was acting crazy and Cyn didn't even cheat on me. I also start to feel bad because all of the shit I put her through. I grab her hand and take her to the bed room. "I take full responsibility for all of the shit I put you through. And I know it's going to take time for you to trust me and forgive me." I take out the rings and say " this is a symbol of my love for you and I think this is step one of earning your trust back" Cyn's eyes were big and her hands were over her mouth "wow" she said. I put the ring on her finger and said "Cynthia Santana there's no question that you are my better half and I love you. I just ask that you wear this promise ring as a token of our love." Cyn was stunned then she took my hand and put the ring on it on my finger "Erica Mena you are mine. I love your crazy ass. And I hope that you learn from your mistakes. Because it's only so much I can take before I leave for good." Damn that hit home. I better get my shit together and stop being so messy. I kissed her and said "Te Amo" I tried to undress her and she said " No we're not doing that." "Huh" I said it's almost been a week since we had sex and I have to say I'm missing my fountain of youth. Plus make up sex is the best. " you've hurt me Erica and my mind isn't into having sex it's into talking all of our problems out" "ok bae" I say.
