I set outside my job waiting on KJ. He was late
again.
I was worried as usual. I should be.
His constant cheating on me has not only left me
with bruises physically but mentally as well.
But I love him and love sometimes can hurt.
He always apologizes and I know he really means it.
I just wish I could feel it.
I know I don't have proof that he's cheating minus
the few diseases he gave me so what is a girl to do?
When I confronted him about cheating, he hit me.
He almost knocked my teeth out of my mouth.
I said I was thru with him then, but he apologized
and I forgave him.
I am so glad the disease he gave me was something
penicillin could cure or I would have been done for.
I would have been stuck with KJ and a life sentence
if he had given me the three letter word.
It scared me that he didn't care but he is just a man
right?
I had to let a man be a man.
I don't wanna be one of those naggy girlfriends or
wives that are always on their man about little
things.
I don't sweat the small stuff.
I should have tho.
Nobody in their right mind would put up with KJ.
So was I not in my right mind?
Was I insane? Or was I just that insecure?
While I pondered what was wrong with me, KJ
pulled up.
He looked freshly showered and ready to dig off in
my ass should I say something.
So I put on a happy face and got in the car when he
stopped in front of me without a word out of my
mouth about him being over an hour late to get me.
Chapter 1
When we arrived home, KJ just parked the car and
got out with the keys and I watched from the
passenger seat as he headed straight for the front
door of the house.
He acted like he was mad or maybe I had made him
mad.
At least I didn't call him to remind his ass he was
late which I shoulda did.
Was he mad that I didn't call to start some shit with
him so he could fight?
Maybe that was what it was because I hadn't did shit
else to him.
I sighed heavily and opened the car door to exit to go
in the house.
I was just hoping he wasn't gone start no shit.
Once in the house, he was nowhere in sight which
was a good thing for me because when he wanted to
start some shit, he would be waiting for me to get in
my face.
I quietly closed the door just in case he was waiting
until I made it fully inside.
As I got closer to our bedroom, I could hear the
shower running.
Did he work today?
If he did, I didn't know about it.
I slipped out of my shoes and clothes and headed for
the bathroom.
I opened the door quietly and as soon as I reached
for the shower, KJ pulled it back with a scowl on his
face and says, "What the hell you doin?"
I say, "KJ bae I wanted to take a shower with you. I
just got off work and wanted to shower too."
He says, "Well wait until I get out."
Then closed the shower curtain as if he was
slamming a door in my face and I can see his
silhouette through the shower curtain continuing to
wash himself.
I looked down at my naked body.
I'm not fat but I am skinny as hell.
What did he want me to do about it?
Maybe I wasn't thick enough for him but I eat and
eat but never gain any weight.
I just sighed heavily and exited the bathroom in my
nakedness to wait until he gets out the shower like he
done worked some damn where.
I swear I am getting so tired of him.
Yeah right.
That's what I keep telling myself and nothing
changes.
Not my situation or KJ.
As I sat down on the bed and waited for him to finish
showering, I pondered where in my life did I go
wrong. It's like KJ had this strong hold on me like
roots or something and I couldn't go anywhere or let
him out of my heart to go anywhere.
I had no idea what I had done got myself into.
