Anniyah Pov...

I went out to where the pool was and saw nothing but girls out there. I guess the boys invited them. I turned around to go back inside but Gemini called my name. She was waving me to come over there. I walked over there and laid the beach chair next to hers.

"Auntie Niyah you wanna see me swim", Karizma said twirling around. " Yes maybe you can teach me", I said messing with her.

"Okay. Daddy I'm ready", she yelled to Kobi. He got out the pool picking her up. " You ready", he asked her and she nodded.

"No she's gonna drown", Gemini said covering her eyes. " No she's not this how I learned", he said picking Karizma up.

"Okay, I'm gonna drop you and you gotta move you legs and arms like I showed you", he said and she nodded. He dropped in the pool and she did as told.

" Where is she", Gemini said jumping up. I got a knot in my stomach and ran over to pool. Then she popped up on the other side of the pool. "I did it! Look Mommy I was swimming", she said holding on the side of the pool.

I shook my head and laughed. I turned around and I was pulled into the water.

Chresanto Pov...

I was in the pool talking to a group of girls and saw the girl from earlier standing by the pool. I don't really remember her name but she was fine as hell. And she working that bikini. When she turned I swam over there and pulled her into the pool. She was beating my ass, too.

"Chill,Chill! Damn you hit like a man", I said holding her hands to prevent anymore of hits.

"Chresanto? Yo don't do that, that's not funny", she said wiping her face and sitting on the side of the pool. " Ooh, you know my name", I said resting my arms on the side.

She rolled her eyes and smiled. "I thought you went to get a haircut", she said leaning back on her hands. "I did don't you notice my ponytail gone", I said pointing to my head. I heard Ray and Prince call my name but I didn't pay them any mind.

"So you just going to ignore them? I know you hear them", she said laughing and shrugged my shoulders. "Anniyah, right?", I said licking my lips.

"Ooh, you know my name", she said mocking me and I laughed. "So where you from", I asked. Before she could answer, Ray's cousin TJ came over here pulling me with her back over there with her and her thot crew.

Then Anniyah got up and grabbed her towel heading back into the house I guess we have to finish our conversation later.

"Hey who that chick you was talking to.", Ray said watching her go back into the house. "Anniyah, she's Prod cousin", I said shrugging. "She bad as fuck", Prince said and Ray dap him up.

"She okay, I mean she not as cute as me.. She not even lightskin", TJ said and I shook my head. It was obvious she felt threatened by her presence. " Skin tone doesn't matter.. I like what I like", I said diving underwater.

Anniyah Pov...

Its was around eleven something and everyone went to bed. I still up listening to my music. Then my phone started ringing, it was Khalil.

Anniyah: What do you want

Khalil: Fix ya attitude Niy, I know you saw my text

Anniyah: Yup, I did

Khalil: what your problem?

Anniyah: I'm not even gone for a full day and you already talking to other females.

Khalil: Yo, what are talking about. I talk to no other female but you... Where you even getting this from.. Kash?

Anniyah: Don't worry about it.. It's over now.

Khalil: No it's not.. I saw Kash today in Wal-Mart. The "female" she probably told you about.. It was my cousin... *laughs* it's funny how you can't trust me for a couple hours. Keep believing the words from other people mouth.

Anniyah: I really don't care anymore.

Khalil: THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM.. YOU NEVER CARE! RATHER BELIEVE SOMEONE ELSE WORDS BEFORE MINES. AFTER I TOLD YOU ALL I WANTED WAS YOU.. *sighs* I don't care anymore... Do what you want I'm done. It's bad that the person I want the most don't even believe in me.

Anniyah: Khalil I'm--

Khalil: No leave the fuck alone. IM FUCKING THROUGH WITH YOU...

I tried to talk but he hung up.. My heart sunk to my stomach and I got teary eyed.. I didn't even know why I felt bad or how the situation got turned on me. My music was playing Corinne Bailey Rae. Her music always made me feel better but in this case it just made me feel worse. Sooner or Later I was crying myself to sleep.

Chresanto Pov...

I drove to Prod's House because he was having breakfast there this morning. I walked into the dining room where everyone was sitting down eating.

"Good morning everyone", I said taking an empty seat next to TJ. She smirked as I scanned the table for Anniyah, who wasn't there. Then we all started to make our plates.

"So anybody know why Niyah didn't come downstairs yet", her dad pouring him some juice. " I KNOW", TJ said eager to answer.

"I mean I heard her last night on the phone. I think she was on the phone with her boyfriend. She thought he was cheating. He started yelling at her and the poor girl cried herself to sleep", she shrugging like it wasn't a problem.

But boyfriend... She never mentioned she had a boyfriend. Then she came downstairs and sat down at the table. She had a smile on her face so I'm guessing they made up.

" Hey everybody ", she said making her a plate. Everyone greeted her back except me. And turned to TJ who was talking to me but I wasn't listening. "So would you", she said with curiosity in her eyes.

" Eh.. Sure", I said not knowing what she said. Then Prince hit me and I looked at him confused. "You just agreed to take her shopping are you crazy", he said whispering with wide eyes.

" Um.. Can someone pass me the biscuits please", Anniyah said. The biscuits were close to me but I was pretending to be so interested in TJ who was talking about nothing important.

I don't know why I'm acting like this way. I feel a mixture of sadness and anger. It might sound crazy but I think... I think I'm jealous. And the sad part about it is it's over a girl I barely knew for 24 hours.
