Pharaoh's povLet me in, let me in, let me in
Girl
Let me in, let me in, let me in
Baby, I know you ain't sleeping
(I just wanna talk, so open the door)
Baby, I know you ain't sleeping
(I know you ain't sleeping)Yo Trane, one of Zariah's favorite artists, blasted through my car speakers.
She hasn't spoken to me in weeks because a rumor has been going around that I got Gianna pregnant because her baby's age matches up with the last time we had sex.
I got a paternity test done so now I have to wait in order to prove to Zariah that her baby isn't mine.
Zariah still lets me in her crib n shit but she just avoids me and doesn't talk to me.
I got her key from my pocket and entered to see her and some nigga sitting in the living room talking.
I put my keys down and looked at her,"Who's this?"I asked.
The nigga looked familiar but I don't really remember.
"I'm Israel,"he said.
"Good thing I ain't ask you Jerusalem. Who's this Z?"I asked Zariah again.
"Hayden's dad,"she said.
"Oh so we mess with our past niggas now?"I asked her.
She sucked her teeth and rolled her eyes,"Israel and I are going out to eat,"
"No the hell you not. We going somewhere, get yo shit and let's go,"I told her.
"No,"she said.
I grabbed her wrist, not too hard, and looked at her in her eyes,"Don't let me ask you again Zariah,"
"Aye man—"
"Fuck outta here Bethlehem before I gotta put a bullet in yo shit,"I pulled out a glock.
He put his hands in surrender and walked out. I locked the door and put my gun down.
"Get exchange clothes and all'at shit you need,"I told her,"Hurry up."
She sniffles while packing a few stuff and her face was in a pout.
"I'm grown Pharaoh!"she yelled at me and stopped packing her stuff.
"You right. I'm sorry,"I told her grabbing my keys off the island and was about to leave but came back to give her the ring I bought her.
"What's this for?"she sniffled.
"Doesn't matter anymore. You're grown so take the ring or leave it,"I shrugged walking out.
;
It was late and I was making drops throughout New York then decided to stop by my grandma's crib.
"MawMaw!"I yelled walking in.
"Akhil why you screaming?"she sucked her teeth coming up from the basement.
"I ain't know if you was here or not,"I said looking in the pot.
Raquil came from downstairs and mugged me. I gave that nigga the same exact look back.
My grandma looked between the both of us and rolled her eyes,"Why y'all boys mugging each other?"
"Fuck that delivered at the doorstep headass nigga,"he said.
"My delivered at the doorstep headass will still fuck yo ass up,"I slammed him on the wall with my hands around his neck.
"That's why MawMaw knows were ya junkie momma is. She been knew,"he spat.
I let him go and looked at her,"MawMaw?"
She didn't say anything but when she was going to I raised my hand as a gesture for her to stop then walked out.
"Akhil!"my MawMaw yelled after me.
I drive to my crib and drag in a breathe to refrain from crying. I hate crying so it don't happen often.
I throw my keys on the island once I get inside. I took a shower and cleaned myself up. My MawMaw kept calling and so did Zariah.
The door buzzed and I opened it to see Zariah standing in front of me with bruises on her arm that weren't there earlier.
I sighed rubbing my face then hugging her and kissing her forehead which made her cry.
I sat her on the island and looked at the bruises,"Who touched you?"
"I don't know. I was walking here from my car then there was someone in a red hoodie that grabbed my arm. He spoke with slurred words,"
"Don't be walking round here Zariah,"I sucked my teeth at her.
She looked at her manicured hands and sniffled,"I'm sorry."
"My fault baby girl,"I caressed her cheek and kissed her,"I love you."
She looked up quickly,"I thought you sai—"
"I know what I said and I take it back because I didn't mean it. I just didn't wanna commit,"
I cleaned her up and let her wear my shirt. The whole night we was just having a good ass time.
"My MawMaw knows where my momma at and she been knew,"I said.
Her face softened,"Damn,"
"For real. I can't believe she been knew and ain't say nothing ta' me. Dumbass Raquil said it,"
"Why y'all even fighting anyway?"she asked.
"Because I saw that nigga talking to the nigga that got me caught up a few years back,"
"Y'all are grown as hell and arguing over shit like lil kids. And maybe ya grandma ain't wanna hurt you so she kept it from you."she answered.
"Yea ok,"I shrugged.
"You so hardheaded,"she climbed on my lap.
"That's why we always argue. We too much alike,"I told her.
"Ouu!"she exclaimed.
"Nigga why you screaming?"I sucked my teeth.
"My nails match ya du,"she took a picture on Snapchat.
"Calm yo happy ass,"I kissed her slowly."What you tryna do?"she asked.
"You lil freak. I know what you wanna get into and you tryna be slick,"I said carrying her to my bedroom.
