Love Robbery

17

It's been 2 days without him and I feel miserable. I drag myself to get out of bed and get ready for school.
'Lela we're outside' -Dre 👻👽🤖 my phone buzzes.
I walk outside and get in the car.
"Hey boo." Trinity says.
"Hey boutta be mommy." Dre says. These two made me smile a little as I rub my stomach.

"How far along are you again?"Trinity asks. I hold up two fingers saying 2 months. "ohh well you ate right?" Trinity asks. I shake my head.

"I'm not hungry." Trinity laughs. Dre starts the drive to school

"Girl I don't care about you, I'm taking about my nephew."

"I swear I don't like you." I say sarcastically. She laughs again.

"Not my problem. Babe turn into Panera, let's get some breakfast." Dre nods and drives to the nearest restaurant. After we get our breakfast, we drive into the school parking lot.

We ate in the car, I didn't want to even see Nikki's face.
"Soo, have you heard anything yet?" Trinity asks. I shake my head and the tears just came in their own.

"I miss him so much."  I start to cry. "How am I gonna do this with out him? Stupid slut ruined everything."

"It's okay babydoll. You know Nikki and I used to be friends in middle school." I look up at her with surprised eyes. "Yupp. I used to rich like you guys. That all changed when Dre came."

"You say that like its my fault. That bitch is crazy." Dre laughs.

"Oh hush. When he came, she decided she liked him when she knew I did. When him and I got together, she got my mom fired from the company she used to work for." I'm actually surprised at every word. Why was I stupid enough to even be her friend? "But I'm happy now so don't regret anything." I nod.  We hear the bell ring from outside the building.

"Story time over." I can feel Trinity roll her eyes. We get out the car and throw our trash in the nearby trash can. Dre swings his arms over me and Trinity. "And now it's time to fuck shit up." These two can always get me through some times.

I've been thinking about Travis all day. I had to stop myself from cry which was almost impossible. The bell rings signaling lunch. I made my day down the cafeteria when my phone began ringing from a private number. I answered
"Hello." I walked inside the nearest bathe

"Hello. Babe." My heart stops.

"Travis."  I said shakily. "Oh my god, Travis I miss you so much." I said crying.

"Baby don't cry. You gotta be strong for me and you. You got this. I don't have much time on the phone. I just needed to hear your voice." I smile through my tears.

"What's going on?" I wipe my tears and put on a serious tone.

"My court date is next week Wednesday. You, Dre, Trinity, and My mom have to be there." I was so excited, I nodded thought the phone, the I realize he couldn't see me.

" okay, I'll let them know. How are you doing?"

"However your doing is how I'm doing?" I smile. "Babe I gotta go."

"What? No." I start to cry again.

"Don't cry baby. Remember you got this. I didn't raise no punk." We both laugh. " I love you Lela." He says seriously

"I love you too." The phone hangs up. I just drop my phone on the floor . "I can't do this."
