End of the Road • D. Swing

Chapter 8.5 | A Day With Him

Sorry for my absence, I just beg that you don't kill me for taking years to update. 😭 On with the story, though.

Enjoy!

| Morgan |

"I thought you said that was the last song." I rolled my eyes. DeVanté was still singing. 😑

"YOU NEED A MAN WITH SENSITIVITY MORGAN! A MAN LIKE ME MORGAN!" He sang.

"Shut the fuck up!" I covered my ears.

"SOMEONE WHO CAN LOVE YOU! SOMEONE WHO WILL NEED YOU! SOMONE WHO WILL TREAT YOU RIGHT! LIKE ME GIRL!"

"I would really like to hear Ralph."

"Ralph can't sing like me, though."

I burst out laughing, but stopped when I saw that he was being serious.

"Get out my house, you just hurt my feelings." He said.

"Aight fam." I said.

I started leaving out, but he grabbed me by the waist.

"Um..." I said.

"I'll stop singing."

Hallelujah! Praise God! The glory! Shananana hababaha!

"Thank ya lawd." I said and sat back down on the couch.

He turned the TV to some kind of show that shows music videos, not sure what it was called. I gasped once I heard All I do is Think ot You by Troop came on.

"Oh yes, this my song!" I yelled.

DeVanté smacked his teeth. "They stole this song from the Jackson five."

"It's not stealing, it's called a cover." I corrected him. "And their version sounds better."

"No it don't."

I shrugged and started singing along with my husband, Allen.

"I can't wait to get to school each day... And wait for you to pass my way. Then bells start to ring... And angels start to sing. Hey that's the girl for you... So what are you gonna do? Hey little girl, I love yooou! Sooooo. All I do is think of you, day and niiight... I can't get you off my mind. Think abooout... All the time. All the tiiiime..."

"Okay, he done singing so shut up."

I glared at him.

"And them niggas was always ugly." He added.

"My baby Allen wasn't." I grinned.

"Yes the fuck he was."

(If you watched the video, Allen was the one singing the first verse.)

I rolled my eyes. "You just jealous Troop was the shit before Jodeci. And at least Allen could sing and dance, unlike you."

Yeah, that's right. I said it like the savage I am. Kill me why don't ya. 😎

I probably shouldn't have said it so harshly, because DeVanté's mouth dropped to the floor with bulged eyes. He looked ready to make me rethink my existence.

Now why would you say some shit like that Morgan? WHY? 🙊

"But I-I mean...y-y'all taking over now so..." I said. "T-Team Jodeci." I laughed nervously.

He just glared at me and boy if looks could kill... I'd be in hell... that's how far under I'd be.

I cleared my throat. "Got any food?" I asked, changing the subject.

He smacked his teeth and snatched the remote out of my hand, changing the channel.

"I'll be back." He said while getting up.

"Going to take your medicine?"

He looked at me and sighed before going to the bathroom. I decided to watch a movie, so I put in New Jack City.

| DeVanté |

I sighed and rubbed my hand across my face. Morgan high-key pissed me off just then. Old light skinned ass, no ass having ass muthafucka. 😒

She really starting to get on my damn nerves with this 'jusf friends' bullshit though. I mean, what female could possibly just want to be friends with me?

I took my stupid medicine and went back downstairs to see her watching New Jack City. I rolled my eyes, cause you can tell she skipped straight to the part where them niggas was singing.

"Move." I pushed her feet off my couch and sat down.

"Rude ass bitch," she said playfully.

"We need to talk, though." I said.

"What is it now?" She rolled her eyes.

"I don't like this just friends crap. I can't do it no more."

She sighed and didn't say nothing.

"Hello?" I snapped my fingers in her face.

"DeVanté, I don't understand what you want me to say or do. I'm leaving tomorrow, I'll live in California. I get that you want a relationship or whatever, but you know I can't just jump into all that right now."

"But why though?" I asked.

I thought I was doing pretty damn good. I been better than the last gime, so what else do she want from me?

She just got up, getting ready to leave.

"You know what? You sholl right. Go ahead, leave."

"Planned on it." She said, closing the door behind her.
