A MEMPHIS CRY

Chapter 18

(I'm like his enemy, but his sex is my drug)

        Tiera

Today there was a basketball tournament at the courts with some of the young boys King and Dope hung around and King asked me to come out there. I got dressed down in a pair of blue ripped jeans that hugged my shape so well, a white fitting button down blouse and my sandals showing off my fresh pedicure. I pulled my long hair into a messy bun leaving only a few strands out added my shades and was out the door to pick up Lexis. Being though I didn't wanna go alone she agreed to go with me.

When we got to the courts it was full with people all ages Watching the game. Some of the chicken heads stood desperate for the hustlers attention and most of them were getting it too. I shook my head at how desperate bitches would be for money and how thirsty niggas would be for pussy.
I spotted King and Dope in the front row on the bleachers routing their team on. I smiled inside my baby looked so sexy over there with his fresh black and white fit, black and white Jay's with his gold chains, bracelet​ and watch shining and his black snapback backwards on his head.

Me and Lexis found a seat close by and watched as King's team stole the ball from the other team and shot it in the hoop. King damn near jumped out his seat as he slapped hands with Dope.
These two redbone big booty chicks who appeared to be twins with a neatly hair cuts strutting over to dope and King. A sense of jealousy hit me but I remained cool I knew bitches we're gonna try, they both sat down one by dope and the other one so damn close to King she might as well been sitting on his lap. I relaxed more when I seen him and Dope stand up and move away from them leaving them both sitting there looking stupid.
After the game I seen Dope and King over by his truck with a group of their niggas talking and laughing amongst themselves.

"I'm hungry as fuck"Lexis said rubbing her stomach.
I agreed with her being though I hadn't ate this morning. We both walked over to the food stand and placed orders. This cute tall slender brownskinned dude walked over to us he flashed me a smile showing off his two gold's.
"Wassup ma" he spoke. I gave him a head nod and looked away. He must didn't pick the hint up that I wasn't trying talk because that didn't stop him.

"I'm Mann wassup with you"? He said.
I flashed him a fake smile "No disrespect but I'm not interested plus my nigga is crazy" I said eyeing Lexis as we still waited for our food.
"I'm pretty sure ya man don't give a fuck that im having a conversation with you" he said chuckling.

"Actually I do" A deep voice came up from behind him, it was King.
The tall dude's whole mood changed, he stood shocked and all jittery. "Oh shit wassup King"?
"Yeah... Oh and that crazy ass nigga that's me" king said putting his arm around my waist.
"My bad King I didn't know she was ya girl" the tall nigga bitched up.

I grabbed my food and stopped in front of King who was still eyeing the dude like he ready to knock his ass out at any minute.
"Well now you know my nigga" king mugged him, we walked away.
While King kicked it with his boys me and Lexis sat back and enjoyed our food. I was stuffing my face, but Lexis's mind was somewhere else. I glanced over at her and paused, but she didn't say anything nor could I read her thoughts.

"You okay"? I asked her looking up at her sad face.
"Yeah I'm good" she lied. She hadn't barely said two words to me since we got here and it was starting to make me feel uncomfortable.
"Lexis I'm ya bestfriend tell me".
"It's nothing... I promise".
I twisted my lip up at her as to say I already know you lying. Lexis couldn't fool me I knew her like the back of my hand... Well at least I thought I did.
She sighed and put her hotdog down "Ard well... I'm pregnant".

My mouth flew opened... My bitch pregnant. "I'm gonna be a godmom"?
Lexis face showed no excitement at all instead it was motionless and blanked.
"What's wrong with you Lexis"?
"I don't want this baby Tiera" she said with sadness in her face.
I was confused "Lexis why not"?

"Because i'm not with the father one and two I can't afford to keep it" she said almost in tears. I knew the break up between her and Nelson was still eating her up, but why wouldn't it. They had been together for years and I knew she loved him, he just wasn't a man in my eyes for putting his hands on her.
"Lexis don't say that ... I'm here with you I promise but you don't need to kill this baby".
Lexis sighed "I can't depend on you Tiera".
"Then don't... But don't kill this baby" I preached in a soft voice.

King walked over to me and kissed my cheek multiple times making me laugh and wiggle out his grip. "You ready to go"? He asked.
I nodded my head "Yeah I need a nap".
"Ard I'll meet you at the house" he said pecking my lips twice.
"Bye baby" I said Watching him walk away with dope and another dude.
"Let's go" I told Lexis and we left the court. I dropped her off home and after our little talk I made my way home.

            Lexis

I sat on my bed crying me a river with two boxes of tissues beside me. My emotions were Everywhere and nobody there to comfort me. By all means I wanted to see Tiera Happy but not with my man. He was supposed to be mine and mine only I was suppose to be the wife. But here she got him and now I had to suffer without him nobody understood that he was my drug... I loved him.
