Seven o'clock in the morning hit, meaning both Chris and Za'Rayah we're up in different places. Za'Rayah was getting dressed and Chris was thinking of everything he could possibly say to move them past their obstacle.

Royalty was still with Chris and she was sleeping peacefully in her room with the covers up to her neck.

Everything was fine until a knock was heard at the door.

Chris went to it automatically thinking it was Za'Rayah. He was mistaken when he saw Dezirey.

She smiled inviting herself inside.

Chris didn't want to say anything to trigger her so he started at her intensely as she stared back at him.

"Okay, I know she's on her way so let's get this over with.", Dezirey sighled taking out her caliber and aiming it at Chris's dome.

"Dez, listen....Royalty is upstairs and I don't want her to see this. That's my baby girl.", he muttered as he faced the barrel of the gun.

She cocked it and cleared her throat.

"Just do as I say and nothing will go wrong. She won't have to see a thing and I won't have to hurt her.", she added.

As badly as Chris wanted to retaliate he couldn't. He didn't want to spare his daughter's safety or harm anyone.

"Okay what is it?", he asked defeated.

"Leave her.", Dezirey responded simply.

"What? I lov-"

"I don't care. When she comes. I want you to deny your love for her. Make her feel like you used her. Make her feel like she was nothing to you. Or else...", Dezirey said stepping closer to Chris.

"Isn't there something else I can do. I can't do her that way.", Chris pleaded.

There was another knock on the door indicating Rayah's arrival.

Dezirey put the gun down standing by the door and nodding for a Chris to open it.

He opened it and greeted a stressed Rayah.

"Hey Ray.", he sighed hugging her.

The hug they shared was tight and filled with a loving embrace.

"Hey Chris. I've been trying to contact you. Where's Roy?", Rayah asked.

"She's sleep. We need to talk.", he stated nervously. He felt Dezirey's presence shift from the door to the kitchen, where she could peep their conversation in the living room.

Chris let Rayah in and they walked to the couches.

"Yeah we do need to talk. I know your mad at me. I really didn't do anything.", Rayah explained.

"I know... but I don't think this will work out.", he said untruthfully.

He knew it could work out. He knew he loved her and she loved him. He knew that if it wasn't for Dezirey they would have a better relationship.

"What?", Rayah said confused.

He took a deep breath gathering his lies. He closed his eyes and spoke.

"I never loved you. I lied.", he said wincing. He felt a pain that he had never felt before. He felt heartbreak.

"Chris-"

"No let me finish. I played you. I don't love you. Everything was a lie. All the promises....t-they were lies. I-I don't love.", he said repeating himself.
