Can't Keep A Promise

Chapter Twenty One :I'm Done

" Promise , you hurt my feelings. Seeing you with another nigga after we was chilling playing with Layloni. It's like I don't want him to have you but you always got to think about yourself" Rich told Promise causing her to turn on her heels. She took a step back and furrowed her eyes brows. Rich had her completely fucked up.

" Rich , how the fuck do you think I feel ? I gave everything to you . I gave my fucking heart to you and you threw that bitch in the trash . Fucking with you was a mistake because I thought you was different than these other niggas , but you the same . You the fucking same and I'll kill my damn self if I ever fuck up that bad with you again . Fuck you " She yelled . The whole neighborhood should've heard the commotion between the two .

Rich knew he fucked up bad and he didn't mean everything he exactly said . He couldn't stand seeing her with that other man and it blowed his fucking whistle . He knew her for a long ass time and in his mind , she betrayed him .

" I didn't even mean it like that . You over here overreacting on some dumb shit . I'm sorry and I apologize fah my mistakes but we all grown . We gone handle this like some grown ass adults" Rich said as he stood up out the seat causing her to ball up her fist.

" No , you are a grown ass adult and guess what I am , a grown ass little girl . You said that ? Didn't you ? The same man who fucked me and said he loved me , to go behind my back with those hoes you told me not worry about  " She yelled as she grabbed her bag and put on her shades . Sliding on her shoes , Rich grabbed her by her waist .

" Man , how many time I got to say it ? I'm sorry and I'll say it over and over again . You don't fuckin let me speak or explain to yah how shit go down . You didn't even want to hear meh express my feelings to you . " Rich snapped as his fist beat against the wall .

" You know why ? It was already hard enough to catch feelings for your ass and to hear you express your feelings for me ? That shit would've killed me and trust me , the shit you done did , you already would've been six feet under . Trust me on that " She said as she beat her fist on her chest . Promise rushed up stairs and began to pack her bags. She grabbed them and took them downstairs.

He stayed quiet and urged up to talk but she held up her hand indicating she didn't want to hear it . Rich just stared at her with eyes slanted and mouth open as she walked out the door .

" Damn Promise , I'm sorry "  Rich said as he put his head in his hands and started to slowly break out in tears.

Promise turned around and stared at the door as she looked at the door.

" Maybe , I'm over reacting and should atleast try to take him back because it was old and - Damn it " Promise said as she looked at the door and shook her head. She walked to the car and opened the door. She placed the bags inside.

Even though Promise did want to get back with Rich , she couldn't. He still has the mind of a child and he's old as hell.

••••••

" I'm tired of this shit Kilo. I'm very tired. You have got to stop this shit. You are eighteen years old and you have a life ahead of you. You can't dedicate your life to the streets" Jasmine said as she yelled at Rich. Rich smacked his lips and Jasmine slapped him across his face.

" What the fuck ? You better stop putting your fucking hands on me" Kilo said as he stood up and gripped Jasmine's wrist. He backed her up into the wall and pushed her unto the bed. She smelt the heavy liquor on his breath and took a deep breathe. All she could was think about not killing him.

" Kilo , I'm so done. I'm so done with you right now. I'm about to leave" Jasmine said as she grabbed her purse and keys. She wasn't supposed to be over here anyways , she lied and said she was with one of her friends. After promise got pregnant , they've been watching Jasmine.

" Wait baby , baby " Kilo said as he grabbed her arm and she snatched away as she walked to the door. Kilo stepped infront of her and she sighed.

" Move " Jasmine said as she tried to get far away from him. She wanted him to sober up first but Kilo wasn't budging. Kilo pressed his lips up against Promise and she wasn't phased by his kiss. She kept a blank face and he sighed.

" Move " Jasmine said once again.

" Nah , you ain going no where. I got to take you home anyway. You ain't about to walk home so go over there and chill out. " Kilo told her while he slurred a couple of his words. " Please baby?"

" Ok Kilo , but keep on with this bullshit and I'm really going to leave your ass. You can't keep doing this and getting me caught up in it. Trust , I'm gone hold you up in the process but I refuse for myself to get hurt while trying to support you for what you do" Jasmine told him and he sighed.

" I promise i'm gone get out the game soon and get ready to graduate with you . I promise" He said. Jasmine was graduating this year due to her being advanced in all her classes. She maintained a good GPA and finished all her classes early.

" Don't break it either Kilo"
