He's My Boss

II.

I am in love with you
You set me free
I can't do this thing
Called life without you here with me
'Cause I'm dangerously in love with you
I'll never leave
Just keep lovin' me
The way I love you loving me

"Hey baby, Guess what!" I said bouncing my my seat.

"Aye pick me up some ta eat on ya way back." My boyfriend Khalifa said slurring his words.

"Ohh kay, but I just came back from-"

"I want some popeyes, I'a pay you back when you get hea." He said cutting me off.

"Okay, but guess what ba-" I looked at the screen. "Really!"

I drove to the nearest popeyes and ordered his food. I don't how you can be a drug dealer and smoke, like what sense does that make! And it's like he gets high every fucking day! I pulled into our driveway and grabbed all of my bags.

"Hey Khalifa." I closed the door with the bottom of my heel and walked to the kitchen.

"Hey baby!" He said wrapping his arms around my waist and kissed my neck.

"Hey." I said in a dull tone taking off my shoes.

"You aight?"

"Yup."

"You sho?"

"Very!"

"My boys coming ova today so listen out for the do' imma be upstairs." He grabbed the popeyes bag and reached in his pocket and pulled out a $100 bill. "Hea!"

"Thanks, but the food was only $25."

"Keep it, I ain't got no change. You going to work tonight?" He walked towards the stairs.

"That's actually what I wanted to talk to you about." I smiled.

"Can you wait until I get done eatin' damn I ain't eat all day."

"Okay." I sighed.

I grabbed my phone out of my purse and plopped on the couch. As soon as I unlocked my phone, my friend Kia FaceTimed me.

"Hey boo!" Kia said fixing her hair.

"Hey Kia!"

"How was the interview, did you get the job?"

"Yes! Oh my God girl you don't know how happy I am!"

"Congrats girl, what Khalifa say?" she said clapping

I let out a deep breath. "I didn't even tell him yet."

"Why the fuck not! How do y'all live together but y'all never talk!"

"We have different schedules. Every time he-"

"Bitch you acting like he gotta real job. He a fucking dealer working outta y'all house! He always home, that ain't no excuse!"

"Damn Kia it was never that serious!"

"It is cause he treat you like shit and you just sit back and take it. You act like you need him, you make what he make in 1 week in 2 days."

"Okay I get it. You tell me this every day." I said getting fustrated.

"And you still don't listen to me. I jus-"

"Anyway! What you doing tonight?"

"Shit, I was thinking about going to Adrianna's."

"I'll go, I need to go out and celebrate."

"I can't believe him." Kia said shaking her head. "He's a trash bag, let me guess. He got high and now he playing 2k."

I turned around and saw him with the controller in his hand. "You already know."

"Your the uber will be at yo house in an hour so hurry up."

"Okay, see you." I hung up and went to go change.

It didn't take us no time to get up there, we went straight to the bar. After about 5 rounds everything turned into a blur.
