TENESE POV
It's been a while since me, Sabti, and Ocelean have gone out. Soooo, we're going to Drai's for Ladies Night. We all need a break from our damn kids, and this is going to be perfect. I was the first one ready and I went to get Ocelean and we went to Topaz' house were Sabti was waiting for us at the DO'! We were looking good, but Sabti was killing it! You'd have a hard time believing she was a 40 something with two kids. But she's a savage so that's just fine.
We got to the club at about 11:00 and went straight in the VIP section. Sabti was sipping on her Mojito when the photographer came up and wanted to take our picture. We got in our little formation and took that picture in front of the little dance floor scene below us. Sabti was having a good time, which is what me and Ocelean and I wanted all along. Then, her facial expression changed. She looked down and blew out a sigh of frustration.
Me: Yo, what's up?
Sabti: Nothin'.
I grabbed her phone and saw a text from none other than Chris.
Chris Clown / Baby Daddy
What's up? That's a very un-ladylike outfit for the mother of my child 2 be wearin'! What side of the club are you at? Let's just squash this craziness and co-parent.
I didn't believe for ten seconds Chris was trying to play nice. Sabti was already halfway downstairs, getting ready to leave and that shit wasn't happening! Bitch we came to have fun so that's what we're gonna do, even if your punk ass baby daddy has something to say about it.
Me: You better not fight! I'mma beat your ass.
Sabti: Girl, I'm fine!
I slowly walked back upstairs.
Ocelean: What's up with her? Chris is here ain't he?
I nodded my head yes.
SABTI POV
I was going downstairs for a shot of Vodka because Chris is driving me crazy! EVEN THROUGH TEXT MESSAGES! I got my shot and downed it. I closed my eyes, and opened them to see my other ex-boyfriend, Andre Rison staring back at me. This night can't POSSIBLY get any worse.
Me (dryly): Hello Andre.
Andre: Hey baby, you lookin' good! But you always did.
Now see, Andre was my first love. We began dating when I was 15 and he was 19. It was an on-and-off relationship for about ten years. And it wasn't the greatest let me tell you. He was controlling, jealous, and aggressive, which I contribute to his being a football player for the Atlanta Falcons. He hit me after a night out and yes, I burned his house down to the ground. But as with DeVante years later, it was an accident. We were engaged for a while, but I called off the wedding because I knew Andre wasn't the one. Now he thinks he can come back into my life after almost 20 years and reconcile!? HELL NAH!
Me: Andre...
Andre: I know we didn't have the best relationship, but I've found God now and I'm a changed man.
You found God and you're in the club....talking to me? Boy BYE!!!!
Me: Andre, I can't do this with you again! It's not gonna work out. I'm leaving now.
Andre: Where we goin'?
I ignored him until I felt his strong hands pulling my hair back. I was being dragged back to him and I screamed out in pain. Ocelean and Tenese came and tried pulling him off me, but he ended up knocking them both to the ground and it wasn't until I saw a fist connect with Andre's jaw that I was freed and fell on the floor. I looked up and saw Chris, hands bloodied and Andre holding his face.
Chris: BITCH ASS NIGGA!!!! FUCK WRONG WITH YOU, PUTTING HANDS ON MY BABY MAMA AND HER HOMEGIRLS!?!?!
Andre: She's mine, bruh fall back.
Chris: DON'T LOOK THAT WAY TO ME! I SEE YOU AROUND, IT'S GONNA BE THE LAST TIME I SEE YOU ANYWHERE, BLOOD!
He turned his attention to me and pulled me up and wrapped me tightly in his arms. Everything was a blur from that moment on.
...Seems like deja vu, huh?
