O'shea POV

I hopped out my car and closed the door behind me before I walked up Alex's drive way to her front door to see her already standing in it, wearing a fitted baby doll t-shirt and a pair of flannel love pink pajama shorts with her hair in a messy bun.

"Are you okay? You didn't even tell me you was on your way?"

"I just came here cause it was the first place that popped in my head. My head is all fucked up right now Alex.", I said as I walked passed her and started walking up stairs to her room, then plopping down on her bed.

"What's going on? Talk to me." Alex said as she appeared in the bedroom doorway. She climbed up on the bed, sitting on her right leg as the left one dangled off the bed. Half Indian styled.

"I pulled up to E'mani and I house and I seen that nigga Keith and her in the door way. I was going there to talk to her about us working things out and he was there. He was feeling all up on her and she was cheesing all in this nigga face."

Alex paused as she looked down at me. "O'shea. Are you sure it was- "?

"I know what I saw Alex. That nigga had his hands all over her hips and she was happy as hell. I mean, I didn't expect her to move on that fast. I guess I wasn't really shit to her for real."

I put the fuzzy pink body pillow over my face to hide the embarrassment again. I could be tripping out again but what I seen confirmed that she was moving or had moved on already. It was no more us. The fact that she moved on quickly lets me know that Keith been around for quite some time now. Here I am, ready to change the bitch last name and she out here thottin off with this dude. Bitches ain't shit."

My thoughts was zooming through my head as I felt Alex hand gently grab the pillow from my face for her to be faced with tears falling down my cheeks. I tried to compress them as hard as I could but they freed themselves. I sat up on the bed and used the palms of my hand to wipe the salty tears away. I ducked my head to avoid eye contact.

"Shea don't cry. You gonna be okay. I hate to see you like this. I want you to relax okay? I'ma go down stairs and make you a plate. I had cooked enough for left overs. A plate of fried chicken and yellow rice and peas with some yams gonna make you feel a little better.", Alex said as she stood up from the bed, making her way to the door.

"No wait." I said as I grabbed her by the waist and spun her around. "I aint hungry Alex. I just want to relax okay. If I get hungry, I'll let you know. Okay?"

"Okay..." she nodded as her voice trailed off.

I got up and walked down stairs to go into Alex's fridge, but I wasn't looking for food. I opened the door and seen a stacked fridge of fresh fruits and vegetables, fruit juices and other condiments. I didn't find what I was looking for so I closed the fridge door and began looking through her cabinets, then pulling out a fifth of henny.

I untwisted the cap and took two huge gulps as I turned the bottle upside down as I placed it to my lips. It burned my throat on the way down but not for long. I took a quick breather and took three more gulps before placing the top back on the bottle, setting the bottle on the counter.

"O'shea. You alright down there?!", Alex called out from upstairs.

"Umm- Yeah I'm good.", I said as I leaned against the counter. I stared into space as the scene of Keith rubbing his hips down E'mani hips replayed in my head. My pride and my heart were hurt, I could admit that and it stung like hell to admit it too.
