Chapter 18

Omniscient  

Lucious stood by his window and watched as Mel loaded up his trunk with Kyon's belongings. His suit jacket was off and his tie was loosen, he felt bad about the whole situation and for Liza. He knew she was going to be upset once she found out what've had said about her, but that was before she changed.

While Kyon checked his room to see if he left anything behind his father stood by the door with his hands in his pockets.

"You know that girl is broken right?"

"I know, I saw her face" he sniffed.

"Son I'm sorry I didn't mean for this to happen"

"I know, it's just so fucked up cuz she ain't even dat bad" he sat on the bed and held his head in his hands.

"You can still talk to her secretively"

"How man? Mama comin up ta school to warn my teachers, they gon have me on dis strict ass fuckin curfew"

"Don't worry you'll find a way"

"A way for what?" Mel asked waking in the room.

"To get over her" Jermaine said quickly.

"Hurry up and let's go" mama rushed him

"Can I at least say bye first?"

"Boy-"

"Ma let him say bye since he ain't gon be talkin to her no mo"

Kyon walked out the house going straight to Liza's room, he walked pass Cookie, upset with how she acted earlier at dinner, and went up the stairs.

He walked in the room to find Liza laid out on the bed reading a book. She turned at the sound of the locks clicking.

"Oh hey you finish with your packing?" she asked as he walked over to her. He realized she was tryin to keep a positive attitude but he saw straight through it. He also saw her puffy eyes and red nose.

"You been cryin?" He kneeled between her legs.

"No" she rubbed his hair.

"Don't lie. You have a reason to cry I been cryin too"

"I don't know what to do-I'm tryin to think straight to-just get mind off-I-"

"This ain't gon change nothin okay?" She nodded "You still my baybeh, I still Love yo ass. Even though you a shorty with no cake" they both shared a laugh.

"Okay my hood prince charming" 

"L-" a horn cut off their conversation. They both signed before Kyon grabbed both of Liza's hands.

"My mama makin sure we ain't have any sort of contact so whatever I do or say just go with the flow okay?"

"Yeah okay"

"I love you"

"I love you more"

"I love you more than that"

"I love you more than the more you love me"

"I love you twice as much as that"

"Then marry me"

"What?"

"Marry me, be my husband."

"You playin?"

"Kyon Anthony Rowe will you marry me?" She got off the bed and held his hands pulling him up.

"Will you?!"
