Unknown [ An August Alsina Romance ]

Can't be loved

Outfit in Media.

Alexis comes back 2 days later just like she promised. She stopped by the apartment and she drove us to the record label to meet with Mr. Simmons.

At Record Label

Mimi sends us in to Mr. Simmons office. We walk in and he looks up from the stack of papers he was signing. "ah. Hello ladies." He pushes the documents to the side and motions for us to sit.

"How are you doing Joshua?" Alexis asks as she sits first, I follow.

"I'm well. And yourself?"

She replies with a "good" and they make small talk for awhile.

"Ok so we talked over the phone Alexis and you said something about a new single and some type of name change. Right?"

"Yes sir. Kiana wants to be known as heaven; which is her real first name. Also she has a new single ready and we would like it to be released."

We all discuss the name change and we get that situated. Then I bring up the single.

"Alright ladies is that all I can do for y'all?"

"No actually. We haven't really discussed the release of the single."

"Well Ki---Heaven i have to hear it first and then we'll see what happens. Come back here tomorrow at 3 P.M. and bring the record."

We leave the studio and I ask Alexis to take me to Augusts place. I lead her towards the house and she drops me off. I make me way to the door nervously. What if he won't talk to me? I haven't talked to him since the day I stormed off. Might as well find out. I knock on the door and wait patiently. No answer. I grab the knob and turn it the door opens. I walk in and see black pumps. I run up the stairs and walk towards his room. As I inch closer I hear moans. Anger boils up inside me and I push the door open. They both look up. I recognize the girl from IHOP. Tears form and I hold them in. The girl smirks. I lose it. I run up and drag her from the bed, butt ass naked. As I beat her I see August from the corner of my eye putting on his pants and walking towards us. He picks me up and drags me away from the girl. Blood was all over the floor and her.  I get out of his grip and face him. Before he can say anything I smack him right in the face and storm off. For the second time that week.

I stomp down the stairs and I hear August calling me but I block out his voice. I slam the front door as I walk out. I run not knowing where I'm going I just run. Finally when I'm far enough that I know he hasn't followed me I fall and break down. I cry and cry. I cry for this pain. Which brings other painful memories back. I cry for my deceased brother Rico. I cry because I got raped. I cry because I got abused. I cry because I got bullied. I cry because my best friend was shot. I cry because my grandmother has cancer. I cry because i can't be loved.

After I feel like I can't cry no more. I locate my location and I call an uber. Not wanting to bother anyone else. After I arrive at the apartment complex, I ask the guy to wait. I call Mr. Simmons.

"Hello?"

"Yes. This is Heaven."

"Oh heaven. How can I help you?"

"Is their anyway you can listen to the track today I won't be here tomorrow."

"What do you mean?"

"I'll be out of town for awhile."

"How long are we talking?"

"Maybe a couple weeks."

"Alright. Stop by."

I rush in the apt. I go up to my room and pack up some stuff. Then I quickly write a note to Stella. And get back in the car. I tell him the new address and he drives me to the Record label.

Mimi points me to the studio. I walk in and Mr. Simmons and the producer I worked with
last time are in the room.

"Ready heaven?"

I nod and I hand the record to him. He plays it. Every once in awhile he would nod. The music stops.

"I like what you did with this. I'm gonna add some stuff to the beat but the lyrics are solid. Your all set. The single will be released before you return from your trip. I thank him and run back to the uber and he drives me to the airport. I pay him and go in to get a ticket. After the process I sit and I wait for my flight. As I wait my phone rings.

Auggy😍. I ignore it like the last 8 times. He's been blowing up my phone and he seems like he really cares but oh well. He should have thought of that when he was fucking the bìtch from IHOP. The minute I put the phone away and reopen the book I was reading. I get a text.
Auggy😍: Heaven I'm really sorry. Can we talk at least?

I shut off my phone and sit patiently waiting for the flight to be called. Soon I zone off.

Flight 345 to Detroit, Michigan boarding now. Final call!

I quickly grab my bags and rush toward my flight. I'm coming home.
