I turn the key and push the door open and the lights come on. "We gotta talk" I come in and close the door "I thought we were done talkin" I sit my bag on the sofa and walk into the kitchen "Look I didn't want her to come down here but you can trust me..." He says coming behind me "Well apparently I can't August" I snap "Zola please baby" He comes and puts his arms around my waist "Nothing is gonna happen with me and her that's dead baby I love you and only you" He pecks my lips "So why was she in your lap when Trina walked in" He sighed "She was trying to get back with me" I turn around I feel fire in my veins "You was just gone stay around this bitch, move" I push him off me "Where you goin Zola" I don't answer him and walk upstairs to our room. I sit on the bed and see his phone go off. I grab it and read the messages
Jordan: I really would love to see you
August: We can make that happen
Jordan: Ok just let me know when you're free
August: FashoI hear him come behind me. "What you doin" I look up with his phone in my hand. "You textin this bitch too August" He snatches his phone from me "You wanted to find something Zo and you found it" "Fux you August go sleep with that bitch tonight" "Aye man chill with that shit" I fold my arms "And if I don't" I take his pillow off the bed and toss it out the room. He looks back at it then at me "You not kickin me out my bed" I stood in front of the bed as if to dare him "Man move because if I put my hands on you..." "I wish you would put yo hands on me August" "Man move so I can get in the bed" he steps closer to me but I don't move. He steps to my left and move with him "Fux Zola move" he grabbed me by the arms and shakes me. I start hitting him then, accidentally, I popped him in the eye and he tossed me on the bed "You win Zo I'm not doin this shit" he goes in the closet and comes back out with a bag "Call me when you not the bullshit" "Where you goin" He stops at the door "Don't worry about it" He leaves and I hear the door slam. What the hell just happen.
Im sitting on the sofa when my phone starts to vibrate, I answer "Did you make it home safe" His voice soothes me this isn't good. I know I shouldn't be going against my better judgment. "I made it home fine... it's after I got here..." I hear his breaks "He put his hands on you... I'm on my way over there" He hangs up. How does he know where I stay. Twenty minutes later there's a knock at the door. I go to open it, didn't realize it was raining. "Where he at" I'm turned on by his need to protect me "O he didn't hit me" "I figured I just needed a reason to see you again" He laughs "That's not funny" I let him in and shut the door "This a nice house... mines bigger" He gloats "Thanks you we got it last year" We sit down on the sofa and he grabs my feet and put them in his lap. "How'd you know where I stay" He smirks "I have my ways you know that" I laugh
"You remember we used to chill like this all the time" I smiled and took a sip of my tea "We had good times Odell you wasn't ready tho" he looks at me then runs his hand down the side of my face, brushing my hair out the way. I lean into the palm of his hand letting the warmth from it heat up my cheek, I smile. "What you thinkin about over there" I sigh "I miss being happy" he pulls me on top of him "With me you can be"
"Soo tell us what happen" I roll my eyes at Kay and her idea on me and Odell getting back together. "No she need to leave both of them alone they both full of shit" Lea says biting into her gyro "Nothing happened Kay after he pulled me on top of him I got up and asked him to leave I don't wanna disrespect August anymore than I've already done" Lea rolls her eyes and continues eating "Speaking of August" I turn around and he's coming towards me like he's mad. "Get up" I frown and he stands there "Why does she have to get up" Lea interjects "Mind ya business Lea.. Zola get up I'm not tryin to cause a scene at yo job" I look around it's too late for that "August I'm eating I'm not gettin up" He grabs my arm and snatches me out the chair "Heyyyy stop it August" Kay says standing up along with Lea. "I need to talk to you now Zo" I look at him then them "I'm fine y'all we bout to go talk" I shake off his grip and we walk outside. I get pushed against the wall "You fucked that nigxa in my house" truly confused as to what the hell he talkin about or how he even knows Odell was there "What" he punches the wall "You tryin to play me" I shake my head "August no, let me see your hand" I go to grab it and he pulls away from me "Fuck you Zola" "I didn't cheat on you" I yell towards him as he walks away. Tears stream down my face as I sit there with my back against the wall wondering how we got here in less that six months. I thought we were happy then it all changed.
"You wanna crash with me tonight?" Kay ask as we walk to our cars "No I wanna go home I just hope he's there" Lea opens Kay's car door "I wonder how he found out" I look back at her "I didn't cheat" she shrugged "You might as well have" she got in the car and shut the door "Don't pay her no attention you know how she can be" I shake my head "She been actin different lately anyway but I'll catch you later love" We hug and go our separate ways. I walk in the house and it's quiet at first "August you here" I lock the door then sit my purse on the counter. "August" I yell out then I hear music, he must be upstairs taking a shower. I really want to talk to him. I walk into our room and stop at the door. I can't believe this shit "What the hell" Jordan turns around and jumps off him pulling the blanket with her. I charge after them "Come here bitch" she runs and trips over her shoe. August tries to grab me but I slip thru. I caught her by the hair and slung her ass back, slamming her ass to the ground. I would've done more damage if August hadn't grabbed me "Put me down you fuckin bitch" I slap the shit out of him "Zola.." "Ain't shit you can say to me August get the fuck out" "I'm not leaving my own house" "Fine then I'll leave" I go and grab my PINK tote and stuff a bunch of clothes in it. I walk pass dumb ass who's still on the floor holding her mouth and face. "For the record August he came over here but I didn't fuck him... check your resources next time asshole" I push him out my way, grab my purse and keys then leave to go can crash at my sister, Alexis.
