-Brianna-
    "Anthony..." I hesitantly spoke up.

"Yeah babe?"

"Uh, um...."

"Is something wrong?"

"I have to use the bathroom" I quickly got up and ran into the bathroom.

I looked at myself in the mirror.

"What are you doing Brianna? Just tell him! Why are you scared?! You know what f it you're telling him!" I yelled at myself.

"Bree? Bae? You ok?" Anthony knocked on the door.

"Uuh yeah I'm perfect"

"Brianna tell me how you really got that bruise, what happened?" I opened the door and faced him.

"Anthony I'm going to be completely honest..." I just don't want him hurting anybody again.

"Okay"

"What I told you is true. I am completely fine and nothing happened. I love you" I kissed him.

"Umm?"

"The kids will be back from your parents house today" I walked away from him nervously.

-Anthony-
    Okay tell me I'm not dumb. Is Brianna okay? You guys know right tell me🙏🏽.

She's been really weird since I came home. All those bruises showing up then, she telling me a really in logical explanation, what?!

I'm gonna fined out, but_ right now I'm hungry.

*phone ringing*

"Hello?" I answered

"Sup ant"

"Jordan"

"See you say you hate me but you still have my number and you pick up. What's up with that? You must really love me" he spoke.

"And I didn't know you like men too, you must really love me" I rolled my eyes.

"Mhm anyway since called to deliver news."

"I don't wanna hear it"

"Oh but you do"

"No I don't"

"Okay then tell me how's Brianna?"

"You son of a- it was you! You did those things and has her bruised up!"

"And what if it was? I went to have a civilized conversation with her buut- she didn't want to listen so things got out of hand"

"Out of hand! Listen-"

"And don't try coming after me because I'm already out of town focusing on more important enrichments "

"...I will find you, and I will kill you" I hung up.

"BRIANNA!!" I yelled.

"Anthony!" She mocked jokingly

"Nothing's funny, when I asked you what happened to you, you said you were gonna be honest and you lied"

"..."

"What's up with you? All theses lies these days, why can't you just tell me what's happening?! I'm getting really sick of this!"

"Anthony-"

"I purposed because I loved and trusted you, now it's just because I loved you"

"Wait, lovED?"

"I don't even know, I need some air"

"I'm sorry, it's just-!"

I shut the door and drove off.

I don't understand, I try my hardest to be the best man I can be to her and all she does it lie to me.

As of right now, the wedding is off. Until I can get my mind right.

I knocked on my sister's door. A few seconds later her bright smile filled my heart.

"Anthony!" She bombarded me with hugs and kisses.

"Hey Netia, how you been? I need a seat" I walked over to her kitchen.

"What's going on? Why the droopy ant?"

"Brianna" I sighed.

"..." She motioned me to continue.

"She keeps lying to me these days, and we're supposed to get married next month." I answered angrily

"What she do this time?"

"She had bruises on her when I came home so I asked her how she got them because I was curious. She said she was going to answer honestly and ended up telling me a whole lie. Then Jordan called saying he did it and I lashed out on her for lying and here I am now." I raged on and on.

"Anthony I totally understand and I don't blame you for nothing that happened but, you can't keep running away every time something bad happens to your relationship. It won't fix anything, you have to sit and talk to her, if you keep leaving she'll get tired and give up on you. Do you want her to give up on you?"

"...n-no, I just get really mad at times and I just find it easier to leave and think"

"Leaving and thinking will get her to actually leave you. I'm not saying don't think, just think with her, not away from her. I have to go, I have a date tonight so go talk to Brianna"

"Netia..."

"Anthony go" she pointed towards the door.

I got up, hugged her and made my exit.

-Brianna-
     I laid on the bed, hugging my pillow pet with tissues all around me.

I don't wanna lose him again, not this time. Especially if it's my fault.

I heard a knock on the door and the door pushed open slightly. Anthony's face popped I in between the small space. He gave me a slight smile and I instantly started crying again.

"Why all the tears ma?" He softly said as he sat next to me on the bed. I sniffed and shoved my head into his chest inhaling his musk cologne.

"Anthony I'm sorry, I really am. I just didn't want you hurting anybody for me. Yes Jordan hurt me, yes I lied, but I lied for you"

"What you mean?"

"I lied so you wouldn't kill/hurt Jordan and go to jail. I don't want the kids growing up with out you"

He just kept rubbing my head, and a few seconds later I heard slight snoring.

I looked up and he was sleeping. I smiled to myself.

"I love you Anthony" I kissed his cheek and slid out of his hold.

Time to go handle Jordan.

THANK YOU.
