"When is enough, enough?"
Raina
"You got everything baby?" I asked Cam who was playing with another one of his many toys. "Yes." I nodded my head as I made sure his lunch was packed. I grabbed the keys to my Benz and handed him his bag. "Come one before we're late. He walked out the door with me right in tow.

"Hello." I rolled my eyes. "Rai, where you at?" "Minding my business, what about you?" He smacked his teeth. "Stop fuckin playin' man." "Bye Byran." I hung up and made my way to the grocery store. Since I had gotten back, I hadn't fully went grocery shopping, just picking up things here and there, so I decided today would be the perfect time to get it done. I walked in the store, grabbed a cart, and pulled out my list from my purse that was was resting in the front of the cart. I started from the vegetables all the way down to the produce. I was in the snack aisle deciding whether or not I wanted oreos. People, it was a debate going on in my head! I wanted them but did I need em? I huffed cause my mind told me to put the creme filled cookies down and get some baked Cheetos. I said fuck it and picked the pack of double stuffed Oreos up, smiling. "Rai, is that you?" I turned around squinting a bit. "Kirk?" He walked closer so I could a better look. I smiled and gave him a big hug. He hugged back kissing my cheek. "How you been ma?" I shrugged. "I've been good. How about you? You look well." He smiled and nodded. "Yea, I'm doing good. I got a promotion and moved out of those apartments. I got a condo upper east of Manhattan." "Look at you movin' up on me George Jefferson. (AN: Please tell me ya'll know what I meant! lol If not, put "I don't get it" in the comments.) He chuckled showing off those deep dimples. "Whatever Ms. pregnant." I blushed. "Shut up." "Congrats ma. Do you know the sex yet?" I shook my head. "Nope, but I'm having twins." I smiled.
"Wow, hubby put in work I see." I rolled my eyes. "Did I say somethin' wrong? I apologize Rai." I held my hand up dismissing the apology. "No, no, your fine Kirk. I'm just not with him anymore."He rubbed my shoulder in a consoling way. I smiled off the pity party he was trying to have in the grocery store. "You good though Rai? You need anything?" "I'm fine Kirk. I'm all good. Thanks." He smiled and kissed my cheek. "Iight ma, Imma call you later on, you better answer too. I'll let you get goin'." He hugged me tightly making me melt in his arms before kissing me slightly on the neck. I blushed from the spine tingling feeling I was getting. He chuckled and gave me a small wink before walking away. I was too mesmerized by the man to even finish shopping. I got most of what I needed and checked out.
"You hanging up in my face now Rai?" I rolled my eyes unlocking the door as he grabbed the bags from me. "I don't have to talk to you if I don't want to Bryan." "I'm putting an effort and you just throwin' the shit in my face." I laughed. "Tell me this Bry. Where were you a hour ago?" He looked at the bags in his hand before putting them on the counter, ignoring my question. "Exactly. You were with her." "It's not what you makin' it out to be though Rai." "And what am I makin' it out to be Bryan?" I asked with a hand on my hip. "You think I love her or somethin'" "No, I don't think that, but I know your still fuckin' her." He rubbed the back of his neck. "So what, you want me to stop?" I looked at him with wide eyes. "Of course I want you to stop fucking her! You said you miss me, but you wanna do what you want, knowing I can't fuck with it!" I yelled.
He sighed and hunched over putting his elbows on the counter looking up at me. "What she got that I don't?" "She ain't got shit on you baby and you know that shit." "So why the fuck are you still fucking her?!" He rubbed his hand down his face. "Ion know Rai, she just be there, so I fuck. There's no attachment I swear." I laughed. "This is hilarious. So damn funny!" I laughed more. "You begged and schemed to get me back, then you got me back, you impregnate me again and then leave again! This shit is a damn cycle!" I laughed harder. "Do me a favor Bryan, Get the fuck outta my house." He rubbed his jaw and walked over to me. I pushed him away. "Go!" He kissed my lips. "I love you." "I hope you still feel that way when I'm fuckin' someone else and the niggas raising your kids." He glared at me and the next thing I knew I was on the floor crying and holding my bruised cheek."Damnit Rai! Shit, I'm sorry baby, I'm so sorry. You know I wouldn't do you like that. I didn't mean it." He cradled me as I cried. He just hit me? He's never done that to me before. I was shocked, I mean I knew I said something that I wasn't supposed to say, but I was just hurting him as much as he had hurt me.
"Get the fuck away from me now!" I screamed as I punched him in the chest. "I hate you! I hate you!" I sobbed into his now soaked shirt. He stroked my hair as he held me and whispered his apologies in my ear. "Let me go now!" I pushed away and stood up. I walked upstairs to my room as he followed me like a lost puppy. I grabbed anything that was in here that belonged to him and threw them around the room. I don't care if this is his damn condo! It's me and Cameron's now, so if I wanna throw his shit out I will do so. "Rai, just calm down baby. I'm sorry." He begged. I pushed him away and continued doing my spring cleaning. I stacked all his clothes into a huddle and grabbed as much as I could at a time , throwing it over the rail, watching it fall. I did that about four times until everything was gone. "Raina--" "Get the fuck out or I'm calling the fuckin' police and you know I will!" I screamed at him. He stood there I guess thinking. I threw one his Jordan's at him and pointed to the door. He said nothing, just walked downstairs and started packing things into a garbage bag. "Take every last thing cause I'm changing the locks!" I yelled over the railing as I watched. He continued to stuff the bags until there was nothing left. He grabbed the two bags after he opened the door and slammed the door behind him giving me one more glance.
I sat on the floor crying my eyes out as I saw what I thought would be my future walk out of my life forever. "I hate him so much" I thought to myself. All the bullshit I had to put up with becuase of this nigga and he hits me? Me! I'll never do this shit to myself. Bryan can kiss my whole ass.
