chapter 35- Reopening

Stormy's pov

"Funny how we both chose thugs as boyfriends" I said to mya. We were in my old bedroom laying upside down on the bed and looking up at the ceiling.

"Ironic isn't it" She joked. "Rico hasn't been answering my phone calls and J won't even give me the time of day"

"Rashad hasn't came home since he left last night" I sighed. I told her about what happened and she told me what happened with J.

"When J said fuck you bitch, I don't know why but that hurt me"

"Pshh when rashad said he should've left me on the bus bench, I cried like I was 2"

"He was dead wrong for that one"

"And J was dead wrong for getting so mad. Rico is a dick for even posting that shit. He all talk no action"

"True" She sighed.

We talked for a little bit longer before she had to go. As I was walking her to the front door, I saw rashad making his way in.

"What's up mya" He gave her a head nod.

"Hey rashad" She greeted him back. He didn't say anything to me and pretended like I wasn't even there and went upstairs.

"Good luck" Mya hugged me.

"Thanks. Be safe" I watched her get in her car before I closed the door.

I went upstairs to the bedroom and saw rashad with no shirt on. It looked like he was getting ready to shower.

"Hi" I softly said.

He didn't stop what he was doing and still moved around the room looking for something. "Wassup"

"Are you still mad at me?"

"Nah"

"Then why are you ignoring me and not being loving?"

"Have you seen my axe?" He ignored what I just said.

"Yea you were out so I bought you some more. It should be on your top shelf on your side of the closet" I tried not to choke on my tears.

He went inside the closet and later came out with his body wash.

"Did you still want me to come with you to your reopening of your restaurant tonight?" I asked. He had his whole restaurant redone and the grand opening was tonight.

"Yea" He answered before he went into the bathroom and locked it to shower.

"Don't cry don't cry" I mumbled to myself. He was in the wrong not me.

"They stay clowning you nigga" Chris laughed as we sat in king's office.

"Shut the fuck up" I said annoyed.

"Im just saying man. You let a lightskin nigga take yo girl" He laughed.

"What you over there thinking about?" I asked king who was sitting quietly in his seat.

"Nothing" He sighed.

"Shut yo ole nothing ass up. What's really wrong?" Chris asked.

"I said nothing" He got up from his seat. "Im about to head out" He gave us a dap and left out the room.

"You wanna go face your fears" Chris joked.

"Get shot nigga" I stood from my seat and walked out to check up on these niggas and make sure they doing what they suppose to be doing.
