I. Tamara

Chapter 20

Rashad's POV

I opened the screendoor and entered the house as everyone looked over at me. I waved then attempted to go for the stairs.

"Where the hell you been," King scowled at me.

I shrugged discreetly then rolled my eyes under my shades. "I was with a friend," I huffed.

"Don't get chesty, nigga. You was out all night and what type of friend,"

I looked over at the kitchen and noticed Quan standing between some broad's legs on the counter. I looked back at my dad then shrugged again.

"Just a friend," He so damn nosey.

"Nigga, if I have to ask you again, I'm letting Quan whoop yo ass. I had to save you because he was up all night waiting for you to come home,"

"An old friend from elementary. And she was a girl," I rubbed the back of my neck then tried to go for the stairs.

"Name," He demanded.

Are they crazy? I am not about to throw that girl under the bus because then Quan's going to assume we had sex and then she gon blame it all on me and I lose the whole situation so why bother.

"Do it matter," I grumbled.

"Yes. It do,"

I rolled my eyes then walked up the stairs to my room and shut the door. I grabbed the newpaper and began looking for apartments for about 5 minutes until Quan walked into my room. I stood up, so he wouldn't try to sneak me or nothing. It's not that I'm scared of him, but he can do some damage and I'm too sexy for all that.

"I'm not coming to fight you," He sat onto my bed then patted the spot next to him for me to sit. I shook my head. Hell no.

"I'm fine right here,"

"Nigga, if you don't sit yo ass down,"

He so damn demanding I swear. He must think I'm his bitch or something.

I sat down beside him, but left a big gap so he couldn't attack me.

"I wanna here your side of the story, so go," He snapped his fingers.

"I came onto her," Then I finished up the rest by telling him exactly what happened.

He sighed then reached for my shoulder and I flinched, but he just laughed and patted my shoulder.

"For me to be younger than you, I was always bossing you around," He laughed. I guess he found this amusing.

"Whatever, but I'm sorry, bruh. We good," I asked then held out my hand. He looked at it for a minute then he finally hit and we slid our hands, but he tightened his grip.

"So, once again, stay away from Tamara 'cause she is off limits,"

I rolled my eyes."Yeah, yeah. Alright. I get it now let my hand go,"

He released my hand then stood up. "Come on. Unc' said he needed to tell you something and I want to know what it is, too," He jogged down to the stairwell and I followed behind him then we stopped. I looked over the rail and noticed Micahel with some unknown people downstairs.

"Who them," I asked.

Quan looked at me and sighed then he rubbed my back. "You'll find out in a minute,"

"So you know who they are," I asked while looking at him.

He nodded then took slow steps down the stairs. I followed behind him and we made it to the living room with everyone else. I looked at each of their faces and they were all light as shit. I chuckled at the thought then my eyes laid upon Legacy. I grimaced at the look of him. Ian never liked that nigga. My dad cleared his throat then looked at the other people to speak.
