Ballin For Your Heart

I'm Sorry Isn't Enough

"It's your own fault bro, you can't be upset with her."

I was laying down in my room when Gelo decided to tell me off once more for upsetting Kyla. After she blew up on me I called and texted her for days. I got no reply and I didn't know what to do, we were out of school and I knew she wouldn't open the door if I went over to her house.

"I didn't fucking know, ok? Can we just drop it because this conversation is pointless." I tried to defend myself, putting my headphones in.

He walked out the door, slamming it as hard as he could.

I miss her so much and the sad thing is yesterday was the game she was supposed to go to but I don't why I would expect her to make an appearance. Everything about her is kind, supportive, generous, and beautiful. I was stupid to pick Bella over her.

Incoming Call: Don 🎧🎤

I quickly grabbed the phone and answered it, waiting to hear the good news about his party tonight.

Hello

Listen, party is tonight! Got the whole team in, you can even bring Bella if you wanted to.

Nah, I think tonight I'll go solo, where's it at?

I'll text the address, but it's in Chino. Have you talked to Kyla?

No, she hasn't answered me on anything so I guess I'll just give her time.

Alright bro, I'll talk to you later.

Yea, talk to you later.

Call Ended

Even though Kyla is mad at me, I won't continue to mope at home. I wanted to have fun tonight and the distraction of Bella and Kyla's drama would ruin the whole plan.

It was 6 o'clock and usually these parties can go to 2 so I wasn't in a rush. Don had just sent the address and so I decided to take a shower. Hopefully, I can just enjoy my night.

This party was crazy. Girls all over me, vodka and beer floating around, dope ass music, and dancing everywhere you looked. Everything was fine until I looked and there she stood. Kyla looked nervous, holding her arms close to her body until she locked eyes with me. I had a girl on me who was currently kissing on my neck but i didn't have time to get her off me before Kyla ran away.

"Kyla! Wait, please."

I hurriedly ran after her, trying to get through the sea of people in my way. After about 5 minutes, I found her.

"Kyla, wait up! You haven't talked to me in over two weeks."

"And I had a good reason to, you don't deserve me or a girlfriend if we're being honest." She matter factor pointed out.

"I know that now. Can we go somewhere and talk, if that's ok with you?"

"No, I'm fine thanks." She answered, sipping on a sprite, looking down at the ground.

"Well, fine then if you wanted to be a bitch about the situation then do it, at this point I don't care."

I walked away just after I saw the hurt in her eyes. I knew what I said was wrong but I wasn't about to keep letting her twist my brain into thinking that I was the worst person in the world, which I felt I was. If she felt she needed to move on then I guess so did I.

"Aye Don, pass more of that Ciroc."

Kyla's Pov

I just got home from Don's party and I never felt more disrespected in my life. Melo never called me out my name in all of the years of our friendship and now that he did, I had to keep myself from going crazy.

I started packing all of his shit that he had ever left at my house. It was in a cardboard box and placed it at the door of my bedroom so that in the morning I could take it to his house. How could he? We were best friends, now ex-bestfriends, and I just wish he understood how I felt instead of snapping at me.

"Sweetie, your'e home so early. Was the party fun?" My mom, Lana, questioned.

"Yea, it was great. I'm just really tired, goodnight. Love you!"

"Love you too my baby."

As I turned the lights off, I had Melo's hurtful words replaying in my head, am I really a bitch?

Melo's POV

Last night was a total blur. All I remember is telling Kyla a bitch and getting drunk until Gelo had to come bring me home. I was mad at Kyla for not giving me a chance to explain myself. Today I was going over to get her to sit down and talk to me but by the time I got dressed and walked out the door, she was already there.

"Kyla, what are you doing here?" I said with a questioning smile.

"I came to give you all your stuff back, didn't want to be a bitch, and keep it."

"Kyla, please, I didn't mean..." I tried to explain but before I could, she cut me off.

"I know you "didn't mean to hurt my feelings""

"I'm sorry, we can talk this all out and fix it. This is our first real conversation in almost three weeks, I'm going crazy over here. First you tell me you like me and then you don't even wanna talk to me, I'm just confused."

"There's nothing to fix! You chose your words and I'm choosing mine. I'm sorry that I dropped that bomb on you but in all honesty it went too long unsaid and I was mad as fuck. But it's fine, we don't ever have to converse again just know sometimes sorry isn't enough."

By now we were making the biggest scene on my front porch and I'm pretty sure my whole family could hear. She handed me back my things and quickly walked her way back to her house.

"Melo, you alright son?" My dad screamed from the kitchen.

"Yea, I'm fine!" I screamed back as I ran back to my room.

I shut the door and began to rummage through the memories in this moving box.

My sweatshirts, our pictures, our makeshift bracelets from when we were kids, stuffed animals we had shared, and so on. She was serious and I was seriously, slowly losing my shit.

Ok so I've noticed melo doesn't like girls pictures that often meaning he could be trynna be lowkey or he has a girl, Idk. I think his cutest friends are Don, Shareef, and Onyeka, what do you think? I snapchatted Don one time and said a corny joke and he replied, I still have the screenshot. Anywhore make sure to vote and comment and keep me updated with the latest Melo tea. Chow ♥️✨
