Still My Thug

23.

Noami's POV.

I woke up this morning and packed the rest of my stuff, then put them in the car with Destiny's. Last night, I burnt everything of me and Tray's when he left. I was honestly done with him. I brought a sleeping Tyrone downstairs and put him in his rocker. While I started to cooking pancakes. I heard a knock at the door and when I opened it and it was Tray.

"Why are you here?" I asked.

He just walked in without saying anything and went upstairs. I walked back and continued what I was doing before I was rudely interrupted.

"Where's Tyrone?" he asked coming into the kitchen.

"Why?"

"Look Noami, I didn't come to argue with you. I don't even wanna see yo fcken face at the moment. I don't give a fck about you, I just wanna see my son before y'all leave." he said with a straight face.

"He's in the living room." I said.

I turned around and a tear slipped out.

"Hurt doesn't it?" he asked behind me.

I looked up and wiped my face. I didn't even say anything back to him.

"To be honest, I have had the best week ever here." Destiny said coming down.

"Well, that's good." Tray said.

"Good morning my little stanker." she said to Tyrone.

He was in Tray arms drinking his bottle and then started grinning.

"Is everything in the car?" she asked.

"Yeah, I just gotta get dressed." I said.

"Alright."

I ate and the went upstairs to get dressed. I put on a fitted nude dress and my brown sandals. Then I flat ironed my hair and put in studs, mascara and lip gloss. We I walked out the bathroom I was kissed. It deepen and deepen and I knew it was Tray. And he walked me up against the wall.

"I just wanted one last kiss." he said breaking away.

"Well, you got it." I said looking up at him.

"Yeah." he said walking out.

My love for that boy will only get stronger and will never change. But its time to move on and be a better mother to Tyrone. I grabbed Tyrone's bag and walked back downstairs. We left out and Tray put Tyrone in his car seat and Destiny got in.

"So when will y'all be back?" Tray asked.

"I don't know, I'll let you know." I said.

I got in and rode out. Louisiana been great but I gotta get back to my other life.

*hours later*

We pulled up to our house and got out. We went inside and I flopped on the couch.

"What a week." I said.

"Hey, I'm about to go to the store you want something?" Destiny asked.

"No, I'm good." I said.

"Alright."

"Wait, I'll go. I wanna get out anyway." I said.

"We just got back here." she said.

"I know."

"Alright, fine by me."

"Wanna keep Tyrone or want me bring him?" I asked.

"I'll keep him."

I gave her Tyrone and left. I went to the supermarket and got some food. I stopped at the meat section and a boy came up to me.

"Hey, I'm Ja'Von." he said reaching out his hand.

"I'm Noami." I said shaking it.

"I was just looking at you and thought your were beautiful." he said.

"Awe, thank you. I kinda needed that." I said.

"Really? I'm surprised you don't get it everyday." he said.

I laughed and blushed a little.

"So, how old are you?" he asked.

"I just turned 19." I answered.

"Good, we can have a real conservation now."

"Haha, how old are you?"

"20."

"Good, we can have a real conservation now." I repeated.

"So, I'll see you around?" he asked.

"Maybe." I said walking away.

I picked up a few more things and went to the cash register. When I was about to pay Ja'Von came up.

"I got it." he said giving the lady cash.

He paid and then picked up my groceries and started walking me to my car.

"Thank you but I had it." I said.

"I know you did but I just wanted to help out." he said.

He put in the groceries and opened the door for me.

"So, you have a child?" he asked.

"How did you know?"

"Wild guess maybe. And because of the car seat that's in the back." he said.

"Haha, oh kinda forgot about that. But yeah, I have a beautiful baby boy." I stated.

"Well, that's good."

"Does that scare you?" I asked.

"Nah, the only thing that scares me is snakes." he said then burst out laughing.

"I'm just playing ma but its a good thing. It means you're not childish like other girls your age." he said.

"No, I'm not."

"Now we can really have a conversation. But that's if I can have your number." he said.

"How about this, if I see you again then maybe you can have it." I suggested.

"Alright."

I got in and he closed my door and I went home smiling. When I came through the door Destiny and Tyrone was watching TV.

"Hello there." I said in a daze.

"What the hell wrong with you?" she asked.

"You will not believe this but, I just met a guy." I said.

"What?"

"Yeah, not only that but he's a dreadhead. He has the most beautiful brown eyes and he's tattooed up, piercings. He's just fine axs hell!" I said.

"Haha, well looks like you had a good time at the supermarket." she said.

"I did and now I'm about to cook, feed my baby, eat, take us a bath, and go sleep. Then get ready for work in the morning." I said.

"And the usual begins." she said bouncing Tyrone up and down.

"Yes, it does. I gotta get this money, money, money." I said singing Usher.

"Girl, you crazy."

I began to cook. I cook mashed potatoes with fried chicken and corn. And we ate and I fed my fat man who had mashed potatoes all over his face. After, I ran us some bath water and took us a bath then rocked him to sleep. Then I went to sleep after.
