*Deontae*
"Damn when will you be back to N.Y.?" I say to my side hoe on the phone while throwing back a shot of Tequila.

"Whenever the tour is over. And while you worried bout me you need to be worried about your lil girl friend." She spat.

"Look man I'm not trying to hear all that. Keep in mind you're just the side piece." I say chuckling.

"Whatever D. Look we're coming to New York next week I'll send you a ticket and VIP so we can do a lil sum."

"That's what I like to hear." I say biting down on my lip. We exchange a few more words before I disconnect the call.

"Aye my man. Would you like anything else?" The bartender ask coming over to me. I hold my hand up declining the offer and he go to assist another costumer. I look at my watch and its 3 a.m. Guess I'll head home now.

I stumble a bit before being able to walk right then head out of the bar and to my car. After about 30 minutes I end up at home. I walk into the dark house quietly and head upstairs to the room when the lights turn on.

"Where have you been all night Deontae?" Daijah question.

"Like I told you earlier out. Now shut the fuck up." I say taking off my tie.

"Whatever!" She say huffing and turning over going back to sleep. I shake my head ion have to explain myself to nobody.

"I'm fired?" I question my boss.

"Yes Mr.Thomas you're fired. The Company's system got hacked and it all led back to you. We'll be taking the company's car next week." He say closing his brief case and leaving out. I rub my temples. This is too fucking much. I gather my stuff and leave my office.

When I get home Daijah is watching tv. She must've got the day off.

"What are you doing here?" She ask lifting a brow.

"I done told you about asking all these damn questions." I snap. She roll her eyes.

"I believe I'm grown I can ask whatever I'd like." She say not taking her eyes off the tv. I walk over to her grabbing her by her neck yanking her up.

"I lose my job and this is what the fuck I come home to? Your disrespectful ass?" I say before losing it. I punch her in the eye before throwing her back on the couch and punching her on the side of her face and dragging her off of the couch by the hair.

"I'm sorry!" She scream.

"Bitch it's to late for sorry!" I say still dragging her up the stairs.

*Daijah*
"I'm sorry baby I promise I'll stop.. Just give me time." Deontae say trying to hug me. I push him away. I couldn't keep doing this. Him putting his hands on me had to stop.

"Why Deontae? Why do you keep hitting me?" I ask choked up.

"I don't know baby. I promise it won't happen again." He say kissing my cheek causing me to flench. "I'm sorry baby. I know it hurts." He say pulling me on closer to his chest and drifting off to sleep.

Before walking into the office doors I make sure I have on enough make up to cover my black eye. When I'm finished I straighten the wrinkles out of my skirt and make my way inside.

"Well look who's back at work!" Allijah tease when I sit down.

"I need to be working as much as I can." I say.

"Mhm well don't work too much because I have a surprise for yoou." She squeal while going into her purse and pulling out a envelope and handing it to me.

"What's this?" I say opening it and peeking in. "Oh my gosh!" I scream causing people to look.

"Two back stage passes and front row seats to see Jacquees next week!"

"Oh my gosh I love you!" I say hugging her and sticking the ticket and pass down in my purse.

"So now that I've turned that frown upside down that you had when you walked in the door, what was wrong?"

"Ugh Deontae lost his job. As if things wasn't hard enough this is making it twice as hard." I say remembering last night. Allijah just shake her head.

"So what are you going to do?"

"I don't know J. I'm still trying to figure that part out."I say taking a deep breath. I'm trying my best to keep my mind off of this whole situation.

"Well no need to worry we're going to see Jacquees next week!" She say doing a dance causing me to laugh.
