There they stood. Darren, with his eyes as wide as they could get, and Kesha, staring down Darren with nothing but torture going through her mind. "Darren.", Kesha said, fighting back tears . "What the fuck is this"? Darren just stood there and looked at her in silence. Tears then fell down her cheek. "What the fuck is this!?", She yelled. "Baby.", Darren said. "Baby what? Huh? Baby what!?", She exclaimed. "I can explain". "Well explain then. I'm waiting". Darren walked over closer to her, only to have her step back. "I know it seems bad, but it's not that bad of a situation. It was just one time.", he explained. "Who is she?", Kesha calmly asked, wiping her tears. Darren stood silent. "Who..is...she?", Kesha strained out. "It doesn't matter.", it was a one-time thing. Baby I'm sorry. We just haven't been connecting lately and I just stepped out of line. Please forgive me.", he begged. Kesha turned from him and wiped her eyes. "Me and Jeremy are going to stay with ma for a few days, possibly for longer.", Kesha said as she walked out to get some clothes. "Baby don't bring Jeremy into this. Let him stay with me. You know how I feel about him.", Darren pleaded. "You should've thought about him before you had another woman in OUR bed. I really don't believe this is the first time, judging by how many females you used to mess with before me.", Kesha stated. "You know damn well I don't mess around behind your back like that. I know how I was in the past, but that's the past.", Darren responded. "Apparently not.", She said. She put her and Jeremy's clothes into the car and drove off, leaving Darren standing alone in the driveway. Desiree was at the house when her phone vibrated. It was a group message Kesha sent to her and Faith. "Meet at Desiree's house. Desiree I'm omw there". Everyone responded "OK" and Faith was the first to show up. "Hey.", Desiree greeted. "Hey girl. You what's up with Kesha?", Faith asked. "No, but it's probably pretty bad. They sat in the living room and chatted a bit. Keith then came through the room with nothing but a towel, unaware that Faith was in the house. "Uh Keith, Faith is here.", Desiree announced. "Hey.", Keith said, trying to avoid eye contact. "Hey.", Faith responded, doing the same. Desiree noticed how hard they were trying to not look, but her attention was taken by the door being knocked on. "Come in.", she said. It was Kesha, eyes red from crying the whole ride. "Oh my gosh, what's wrong?", Faith asked. "Darren cheated on me.", Kesha said. "What?", Desiree said. "How do you know?", Faith followed up. "I found a used condom in the bed.", Kesha answered. "Girl don't cry. He doesn't deserve your tears.", Desiree comforted. "four years y'all. Four fucking years of my life of being a good wife didn't mean shit apparently.", Kesha dragged out. "Kesha, don't talk like that. Just don't think about him.", Faith advised. "But I love him too much. And what about Jeremy? He needs both of us, but I'm too hurt to go back over there.", Kesha explained. "You moved out?", Desiree asked. "I just packed a few clothes to take to ma's house.", Kesha said. "Look Kesha, I know you're hurt, I know you're ready to kill him probably, but I know you still love him just the same. Maybe you should just give it a week or two and afterwards, if you want and if you two get back on the right track, you could tough it out a little while for Jeremy.", Desiree advised. "I might actually do that. For Jeremy that is.", Kesha agreed. Her phone then rang and it was her mother. "You guys I have to go and tell ma.", Kesha said. "Ok girl. We're here for you whenever.", Faith said. "I know. I love y'all.", Kesha said. they said their byes then Kesha left. Faith and Desiree proceeded to the kitchen with Keith cooking. "Can you believe how easy it probably was for Darren to just cheat like that?", Desiree asked. Keith held his head down lower, trying to avoid showing a guilty look. "Desi, it probably wasn't easy for him. He probably just got caught up in a moment.", Faith explained. "Yeah right. Anyone who cheats knows what they're doing.", Desiree claims. Faith and Keith took a quick glance before Faith got up to leave. "Hey, I'll catch you tomorrow.", Faith said. "Oh. Okay". She left and Desiree went over to Keith to hug him. The sudden embrace caused Keith to come out of his daydream. "You okay?", Desiree asked. "Uh yeah. I'm good.", Keith replied. He walked off into the bedroom, leaving Desiree standing there in thought.
