Pharaoh pov

"We not dating."I told Tyrel while behind the register waiting for 8:00am to hit since we have a sale at that time. Hella people already standing outside the door in the cold.

"Is that what she thinks?"he asks.

"Yes nigga, she don't even like me like that. She gon' like me sooner or later."I shrug writing on the notecard that came with the flowers I bought for Zariah.

I wrote "Have a wonderful day beautiful! - Pharaoh xoxo"

"Mm writing love letter to her. Betta' hope she don't get a nigga soon. I say shoot ya shot."

"Been did that more than once. I was at her crib on Thanksgiving."

He smirked,"Nigga you hit?"

I laughed,"Nah it was like some cuddling type shit."

"What the fuck? Cuddling? What is that? She turned you into a softy."he busted out laughing.

"I only let it slide fo' her. I ain't neva' cuddled before. Shit was weird."I handed the flowers to the guard to deliver them to Zariah's job.

"Mane you soft fo' that. She got you whipped."he smirked.

"Damn right."I agreed walking to the front door. I have four guards in different sections of the store.

"Good mornin' everyone! Don't be rude say that shit back!"I said walking out.

They said "Good morning" in unison then I let four to six people in at a time. This went on all day till 9 and usually I don't close till 7:30.

I walked to my car and then got a text from Gianna. She aggravating for real but she got that act right.

Gianna: come over 💦

I thought about going over to her apartment then decided.

Pharaoh: omw rn

I got stuck in traffic on the way there but made it before I could start hearing her yapping in my ear bout me being a cock blocker for not coming on time.

She opened the door for me and was ready for what she asked for like always. Hoes are hoes.

I hit it more than once tonight. I never fall asleep at his crazy bitch's house but I did because a nigga was drained.

   My phone buzzed and I saw it was Tyrel so I answered it rubbing my eyes.

"Wassup nigga?"I yawned.

"Nigga it's 11 o'clock and you not here. Where you at homie?"he asked.

"Shit, I overslept. I ain't coming in today. Keep everything straight."I hung up.

I looked beside me and didn't see Gianna there. I threw on my shirt, pants and shoes then grabbed my belonging.

"Pharaoh come eat."she said with a plate of food in her hand.

I shook my head and then showered as soon as I got back to my crib. I got dressed so I could see Zariah.
