(Completed) The Side Chick

6. Moving Day

Maliah.

I can't stay with Chresanto anymore. All this drama is too much for me right now. I finished packing the last of my bags and boxes and called my brother up to my room. He walked in and leaned against the dresser. "Maliah, you can't leave the kids with him. I agree, they should be with their dad, but they should be with you too." He said. I sighed. "I'm going to live with Ricky. I don't think it's the right time to bring Genesis and Trey around him." "Why are you going to live with him?? He's the reason you're moving out!" I rolled my eyes. "You're my brother, not my dad."

I walked downstairs and saw Chresanto, Karlae, and Patrice on the couch laughing and talking. They got silent when they saw me. "Patrice..." I started walking to her. She stood up and looked me dead in the eyes. "I trusted you, Maliah. I had your back 100%. I was siding with you because you were just oh so distraught over the fact that he was  cheating, then you turn and do the same thing for 6 years!!" "I'm sorry, Patrice. Chresanto, I'm sorry. What do y'all want from me?" "Nothing," Chresanto spoke. "but I would like for you to hurry the hell up and leave." I sighed and walked out to my brothers car.

Karlae.

I sat back and shook my head. I don't know why Maliah was upset with my brother for doing what he did on another level. It's honestly ridiculous. Like why the hell are you bitching? You have no right.

"Look, man," said James, Maliah and Patrice's brother. "I'm sorry about how this happened. You know we still brothers for life. If you ever need anything, I'm here, dawg." Chresanto stood up and dapped him up. Patrice and I hugged him. "Bye, James." I said. "Bye. Hey, we're still good for tomorrow, right?" I nodded. "7:30." He smiled and walked out. I started blushing as Patrice and Chresanto looked at me. "Bye, James!" Chresanto mimicked. They laughed. I rolled my eyes. "Whatever. Y'all are childish."
