One Wish

Chapter Nine pt.2: Roomies

Robyn

I did a lot of thinking and I decided to see if I could stay with Chris. I didn't want to start any problems with him and his girlfriend so if she was there I was gonna leave but if she was gone I would stay at least for one night. When I got to Chris' house I saw two cars in the drive way. I thought about leaving and going to a hotel but something told me to ring the doorbell. I got my suitcase out of the trunk, walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. I waited for a few seconds until the door opened. I looked up and saw that is was Mijo who opened the door. I haven't seen him in forever.

"Hey Mijo." I said, smiling at him. He didn't respond. He just stood there staring at me and..is that..drool coming down his chin? I heard foot steps coming towards us and then Chris appeared in the doorway.

"Can I come in?" I asked.

"Yeah. Mijo move and get her stuff." I followed Chris inside and Mijo trailed behind us with my suit case.

"Is your girlfriend here?"

"No, she left earlier."

"You don't mind if I spend the night do you?"

"She staying the night?!? Shit I'm staying too!" Mijo yelled when he walked back downstairs.

"Don't worry about him. What's going on?" Chris sat down on the couch and patted the space next to him, telling me to sit down.

"Aubrey kicked me out."

"That 'Take Care' nigga put you out on the street?" Mijo asked. I didn't notice him sit down in the living room with us.

"Can you please leave?" Chris asked.

"Man what I do?"

"I'm trying to have a conversation with Robyn and you keep interrupting."

"I'll be quiet."

"He's fine Chris."

"Why did he kick you out?" Chris asked.

"He thought I slept with you last night. I told him we didn't do anything but he didn't believe me."

"You know when your with someone who keeps accusing you of cheating most of the time they're the one cheating?" Mijo said.

"I know that. I found a girls panties under the bed when I was getting my suitcase."

"Damn that means he fucked another bitch in y'all bed. That's a bitch move right there. That means he don't give a fuck about you or your feelings." Mijo said. I felt tears well up in my eyes and I blinked hard to hide them. Mijo is right. Aubrey doesn't care about me at all and I was too blind to see it. At this point I can't even say if he even loved me.

"Mijo, I think Robyn needs to be alone."

"Aight, hit me up later." Mijo said before he walked out the door. As soon as the door shut my tears started to fall.

"Don't cry Robz. You don't need to waste your tears on a punk ass nigga like Aubrey."

"You don't know how bad I feel. I feel like shit Chris. I can't do anything but cry."

"You can get over this and move on. Why are you crying over a man who isn't shedding a tear over you?"

"I loved him Chris. I loved him with all my heart and soul. I gave him my everything and he turns around and cheats on me. What's wrong with me?" Chris grabbed my chin and made me look him in the eyes.

"There is nothing wrong with you. Don't blame what he did on yourself. You are a smart, funny, talented, and beautiful woman and anyone who hurts you doesn't deserve you."
