Ghetto: Macy & Mekhi Love Story.

Chapter 19

Macy Pov

"She looks so pale, at least I know she is alive. Where's Cash?" I spoke solemnly about Caella to Money as I rubbed Micaella's arm while she was sleep. If Caella wouldn't have made it, God would have to take me too.

Cashton was feeling guilty about the incident, but I don't blame him for anything that has happened. Every thing in life has a reason, and there was a reason for Caella getting shot, but I don't think he was the reason. It's quite a coincidence to me that Caella got shot, and I got drugged the same night.

The thing that kept my mind wandering was, how come whoever drugged me just left me there? They didn't take anything, or take me anywhere. The purpose of it all, would I ever know?

What would have happened to me if Money never got there when he did? My mind was full of tumult, and I didn't know where to start from here on out on figuring this shit out.

Silence fell over the room besides the faint sounds of Caella's machine lightly beeping.

I turned around to face Money who didn't say anything, yet just looked straight ahead at nothing in particular.

"Khi?" I called out to him.

Glancing over at me he spoke "Wassup Mace?"

"Did you not hear me? Where's Cashton?" I asked him again.

"Nah I didn't, I got a lot of shit on my mind right now. Shit not adding up, but it's cool cause I'll calculate it all, eventually." He briefly paused and stared at me, but something about his stare made me question myself if I did something. "Cash went by his crib, he'll be back in a few."

"Is there something you want to talk about, Money?" I asked because I was a little offended by his stare.

"We'll talk about it, soon Mace..real soon. We need to talk about you paying better attention to your fucking surroundings though." He said as he raised his eyebrow at me.

"Yeah, I know Money. You've told me about 30 fucking times since the doctor cleaned my system and cleared me to leave." I said rolling my eyes as I went to take a seat next to him.

"I'll probably tell you 30 fucking more times too. What's your point?" He said as he lightly shrugged his shoulders.

"I'm not a little kid, you don't have to repeat things over and over for me to understand. You've made your point. In all honestly nigga, if I wouldn't have been blowing up your fucking phone, I probably would have noticed." I said as I rolled my eyes.

He was acting iffy all day. I don't know what his problem is, but I don't have to put up with his shit. Maybe I could have payed better attention to my surroundings, but Mekhi could be more fucking understanding than how he was acting. I was blaming myself for my mistake already, I didn't need my "man" blaming me as well.

"Okay Mace." He lightly giggled. "I'm not about to do this all day with your ass."

"Do not recall asking you too, Money."

"Mace." He said exasperatedly.

"Money." I replied back giving off the same tone he gave off.

He turned to look at me and I looked right back at him.

"You so annoying, Macy."

"You so annoying, Khi."

"Aight, shutup."

"Aight, shutup."

We just sat there staring at each other for what seemed like forever, before we burst out laughing. I couldn't take shit serious most times so I knew I was going to laugh eventually.
