The split

Chapter 6

🌼Asia Dee🌼

I stood in the furniture store waiting for Morgan to show up considering she asked me to come and help her pick out a bed. I've been waiting for ten minutes for her to show up. I started looking around for the first five minutes and now I'm in the mirror taking pictures and waiting.

"Asia," I heard Morgan say and I turned with a smile which dropped at the sight of her standing next to TJ. "Hey," I said to her not looking like at TJ or even acknowledging he's there. "Sorry I know I didn't say I was bringing anyone specifically TJ, but I knew you wouldn't come if I did. You would've made up something else to do and out of guilt you really would've done what you said you were going to do." Morgan said and I shrugged.

"Well we're all here now, I just don't want to argue or cry anymore. If he wants to say fuck me and cut me out of his life then I can't stop him and I won't force him or beg him not to." I said before turning and walking away. "I saw a nice bed with a good bed set over here, I thought you should look at it." I said leading the way.

We walked around looking at beds, as I enjoyed myself not paying TJ any mind. "Asia," I heard someone call out so I turned around as did Morgan and TJ. "Chester! Oh my gosh! Come here gimme a hug!" I said excited and I happily jogged over to him and jumped into his arms. "I knew that was you, I couldn't confuse you with anyone else." He said with a smile.

"I missed you so much, so much has happened that you need to get caught up to." I said with a smile and he just smiled. "You look so mature, and so much hotter now look at you." I said with a big smile. "That's what love will do to you." He said and my smile grew.

"You have to tell me all about him, and I really love the new hair color it suits you. And no more baby face, you are really doing the thing Huh?" I asked and he chuckled. "I'm flattered, don't overly boost my confidence I already have a lot of that now. Ever since I graduated, I have been open with who I am and what I want and it just feels great not to hold back even a little." He said and I just kept smiling.

"That's good, really good I'm proud of you. Oh this is Morgan, and Morgan this is my best friend from high school. Are you still doing art?" I asked him and he smiled. "It's nice to meet you Morgan, it's good to see you again TJ, and of course. Who would I be without my art?" He asked and I giggled and shrugged.

"I had to make sure, I mean a lot has changed since the last I saw you." I said and looking him up and down. "It's nice to meet you too," Morgan said and TJ cleared his throat. "Yea man, it's nice to see you." He said and I rolled my eyes. Even his voice irritates me now, just his presence makes me uncomfortable. "You can look around with us if you want," I said and he shrugged as we started walking around with Morgan and TJ behind us.

"Sooo, you and TJ got back together?" Chester asked knowing about what happened and why TJ and I aren't together. "No, I tried but he don't want to hear it. He doesn't want anything to do with me and he doesn't care about me, he made that very clear." I said and he chuckled and shook his head.

"That's not true," he said and I looked at him with a straight face. "Yes, yes it is. You didn't see the look in his eyes, he wanted nothing to do with me. He didn't even want to hear me out, and he said my apology would only make me feel better because he's over everything including me." I said and he chuckled and waved me off.

"Oh please, he's here with you isn't he? If he didn't care he wouldn't be here right now." He said and I shook my head. "He's not here with me, he's here with Morgan, his sister. She didn't tell me he was coming, which is a low blow considering she know what's going on." I said and he chuckled again.

"You just don't see it do you? He is in the NBA, he's a rookie. He is a very busy man right now, he has to prove himself to his teammates and to his coach just for him to get on the court. He should be busting his ass to impress them right now, but he's not, he's here with you. You didn't know he was coming, that doesn't mean he didn't know you were coming.
