Adria POV

"Tator?" I called. It had been one week since my mom and him met again. I don't know what happened exactly, but she yelled at him. He hasn't tried to talk to me since. The longest he's been gone is 2 or 3 days.

"Adria!" My mom called.

"Coming!" I said. I walked downstairs and came to my mom in the living room.

"Clean these toys up," she said stressed. She looked tired.

"Yes mama," I replied picking up my dolls. "What happened to Teo?" I asked after my dolls had been cleaned up.

"I'm not sure. But don't trust him. He makes everything seem okay when its not. He's a liar." She spoke. Tears filled her eyes when she said that and before they fell she walked out of the living room.

"Tator?" I called once again. He told me he could always hear me and he'd always come when I called. I guess mommy is right, he is a liar.

Mateo POV

Let me explain:

First off, me and Fade have sort of become, frenemies. I mean he's all I got in this place. Wherever I am. Although he did try to ruin my life he was still human. And he still understands what its like to live with emotions.

I always thought emotions were for people who cared. I thought if you didn't care what happens to others you would never have emotions. I thought that serial killers and murderers had to have that mindset. I thought Fade was like that until that night.

Flashback

"Bye pickle!" I said giving Adria a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Bye to you too baby," I said to Kayla once Adria was out of earshot.

"You know you can't say that," She smirked.

"You'll always be my baby Kayla," I said wrapping my arms around her waist. "No matter what."

"I'm with Derek and we have a child together." She stated. Getting out of my arms.

"You know you aren't happy." I answered. "You know you want me and you can't fight it."

"No!" She yelled. I stared at her in shock. "I know I said I would always love you and only you, but I don't." She paused, "I love Derek."

My heart shattered when she said that, because I could tell it was true. I scanned her face for any expression change that could show she didn't mean it but she didn't budge. Her face stayed cold as the Arctic.

"Okay." I choked. "Goodbye Kayla." I walked out the door and closed it behind me. I never wanted to come back.

Flashback over

I quickly traveled home and went to my room. When I got in I didn't cry. I wasn't sad. I was broken. The only girl I ever loved as much as I loved my mama disowned me. She said she doesn't love me anymore. She said even though she said she would always love me, she didn't. She loves Derek.

I sat on the edge on the bed staring at the floor and thinking about the situation. I won't go back. I told myself. At least not for awhile.

"Aye Teo-" Fade stopped after looking at me, "what's wrong witchu?"

"Nothing." I said barely above a whisper.

"Listen, I aint really got nun against you, just yo dad. So if something is bothering you, you can tell me." He spoke.

I had never seen this side of him. I thought he was bullshitting at first, but I just gave in. I needed to vent a little.

"She said she doesn't love me." I said very softly.

"You talked to her?" He asked already knowing who I was talking about.

"On accident. Adria told her about me. And we talked laid together then when I was finna leave, she acted like she hated me. Her man now abuses her. She is so broken but she says she loves him." I paused. "Thats why I'm not sad. She is just hurt right now. She wasn't trying to hurt me. There's no way she could just stop loving me."

"Damn Teo. Are you gonna go back?" He asked.

"Doubt it," I replied after a few seconds.

"What about Adria?"

"What about her?" I said rudely.

"You wanna lose her too?!" He kinda shouted. "I know we ain't always been cool but man. I swear I wish I was you sometimes. Have a family and people you can trust. I ain't eva had dat," he paused. "Don't lose another piece of yo family Teo. If everyone turn they back on you, including Kayla...that little girl gonna be the only one there for you."

I lifted my head and stared at him. I never noticed how badly broken he was. Where he came from and how horrible life would have been for him. Even after losing his dad. "Thank you," I said.

"Yeah whatever nigga. Its cool." He walked out and closed the door behind him.

I decided to give myself some time before going to talk to Adria, and twenty times as much time before talking to Kayla.

In the back of my head I hear Adria's sweet innocent voice calling me, "Tator?" I hear her and I always told her that all she needed to do was call me and I'd come.

Just call my name and I'll be thereeeeeee
^Ignore me being a headass 🤦🏽‍♀️

But I wasn't coming this time. And I kinda felt bad because it had nothing to do with her. And I know it was going to leave a mark. She is going to remember this time when I didn't come, regardless of all the times I did.

Derek POV

I came home and Kayla looked beautiful. She was finishing the lasagna for dinner in grey leggings and a white crop top. Her hair was braided and hanging off her shoulder. Thats all me.

The incident that happened had been forgotten. I didn't remember it too well but everything seems to be alright with her so I guess its been forgotten.

"Hey baby," I said kissing her cheek.

"Hey," she spoke. I looked at her eyes and they were slightly red. Not red as if she was high, red as if she had been crying.

"Whats wrong baby girl?" I asked wrapping my arms around her and pulling her into a hug.

"You. You're the problem."
