IF LOVE HAD A PRICE

Chapter 2.Fuck Your Sorry

*Alona In Picture*

We jumped in the car with the music blasting CardiB on the radio...

Should I call first? I can't decide
I want to, but a bitch got pride
The switchin' up shit is what I can't fuck with
I'm feelin' you but you hard to get in touch with
And you ain't hit me up in a while
Actin' like you don't know what number to dial
You quit, then that's it, I'ma throw in the towel
'Cause a nigga only goin' through what you allow
You don't want this gun smoke
Learn to text with your nose if your thumb broke
I don't care if we get into it and I stall on your ass
But I still wake up to missed calls from your ass, nigga...

Avaiyah:" So, you know where he's at?"
Alona: "Nah, but I got an idea of where he could be."

Avaiyah's POV
We pulled up to this random trap house I had never been to before. "You coming in or you staying in the car?" I know her ass is tough but this place didn't look like nothing to play with. There was bottles and needles all on the grass,piled up. There was junk cars,people walking around with raggedy clothes, crack heads itching and asking for money, and dope dealers doing business with those that had the money. "I'm not letting you get out of this car by yourself. Bitch, are you crazy?"I got out with her and brought my strap as she did.We walked in the trap house to see niggas counting money.Alona pulled out her gun and pointed it towards the guys counting money."Where is he?" They all got quiet and one guy pointed towards the back rooms. "Avaiyah you stay up front and don't let these motha fuckas move." She headed to the back as I pointed my gun towards them and kept watch. Before I could even think straight she dragged her cousin out of a room with his pants half way down and powder on his nose. "So you can  snort my shit and be laid up in here with a bitch but you can't run me my money?" She threw him on the ground and kicked him right before putting two bullets in his knees. "You'll think next time before you fuck me over. It'll be your head then and not them weak ass knees. You got two weeks to come up with what you owe me."  He just laid there in agreement to what she said as he cried out in pain, holding his knees. "Okay girl. Let's go!" I looked at my bestfriend in awwe as we got in the car. I'm not going to lie, I've always had a jealousy for who she was and how dope she was. I didn't grow up like her. There was no white picket fence or a silver spoon to be fed off of. My mom had me at a young age and my dad dipped before my mom could ever tell him she was pregnant. All my life I'd be lifted from house to house and school to school because my mom was struggling to take care of a child without it's father. She would hustle with every job she had from cleaning houses, cooking for other people, making clothes, making jewelry, and she even stripped when times got harder. She soon became so use to being caught up on the fast money that she made stripping her full time job. I'd never see her as much but I knew that there'd be food on the table, clean clothes, new shoes, extra money, lights on, and cable. Just when life was looking better and we no longer had to move is when things started to mess up. She'd have boyfriend after boyfriend and they'd all be so nice in the beginning and then abusive towards the end. She always knew how to keep them from coming back when she no longer wanted them but this one particular guy named Juice was hard for her to shake. He started off buying us things and taking us on vacation. He let us meet his family and showed us off like we were his pride possessions. My mom was in love with him and he finally asked for her hand in marriage as she said,"Yes, of course I'll marry you." I was happy that she was finally happy and they made me a part of the wedding, which was so beautiful. Everything seemed so perfect until the honeymoon was over. Juice and my mom came back home not talking to each other. She had marks on her body as if the honeymoon was full of arguments and abusive. Weeks later they  had an argument and he shot her and himself right in front of me. The police came and gave me to my grandmother, even though she never approved of me because she thought I messed up my mother's life. My grandma was strict with me because she didn't want me to be like my mother so when I got old enough to move out,I did just that. I was struggling when Alona and I had met and she took me under her wing. "You don't have to pay for anything but your needs like food, clothes, toothpaste, deodorant...You know, the important stuff." I never knew what it was like to have a 9-5 job because my mom never had one so I did as I knew and hustled. I stripped for years and when I got my money stacked up I ended up leaving the dancing to the pros. I always had people that would look out for me that I called my brothers. They wouldn't let me go without even though I had the money to do what I wanted anyways. They put me in their game and that's how i met Alona. She was so powerful to all these niggas that looked up to her for the way she did business inside and outside of the game. And here we are today doing business together as Bestfriend's...

Alona:" You hungry?"
Avaiyah:"Yes, I'm starving. I was so wrapped up in my baby that i forgot to eat."
*Alona rolls her eyes*
Alona: "Funny how you forget to eat but don't forget to feed him."
Avaiyah: "That's called sacrifice."
*they both laugh*

Alona's POV
We pulled up at our favorite restaurant,"Olive Garden". Avaiyah didn't want to eat inside so I jumped out of the car to go get two meals for take out. The line was dead long and i was getting mad aggravated at how slow it was going. I went to go back to the car with my tab that'll vibrate to let us know when our food is ready. When I go to turn around I see Avaiyah's boyfriend behind me holding hands with some other bitch. He was looking down at his phone until he realized someone was looking at him and met eye contact with me. He had an oh shit look on his face and I kept walking out as he tried to grab me really quick. "What are you doing here?", i couldn't believe he had the nerve to question me like this wasn't a public place;free to come and go as anyone pleased." Nigga, get your hand off of me first of all. Second, what the fuck do you mean,"what are you doing here",? It's a restaurant!What the fuck you doing here? And with another bitch? You know your girl is outside and if she sees you she'll go crazy." He looked shook."She's with you? Here?Uh!!! Fuck! " I didn't have time to entertain his foolishness so i headed back outside as he fast walked back to whoever the bitch was. Avaiyah was too into her phone laughing and smiling so I didn't say anything. It's not my business but she is my girl so I'll tell her when we get home or something but not while she's all giggly right now. "How long is the wait?" , she asked me. "They said about an hour or so. You want to go to the mall and then come back before the light goes off on this tab?" She shook her head yes and we headed to the mall. She kept laughing at her phone so I just had to ask who was making her so giggly. She said,"My Baby. He asked to come over again later so i told him he could just come spend the weekend with us. You know, since he was gone for a couple of months because of his job." Louis was a player and Avaiyah was sometimes blind to that. I always had this battle within myself to tell her how he is or keep it away from her because I didn't want to feel like i was a part of hurting her. I looked away as we kept walking through the mall and then the tab vibrated. "We have to go get our food." She looked up from her phone and nodded her head for an okay. All i was think is ," Lord, please don't let her try to come in the restaurant with me this time." I looked at the time and felt weird like i was suppose to be doing something else today but I couldn't think of anything. As soon as we pulled up this fucking idiot comes out hand to hand with his side bitch walking out of the restaurant. I looked over at Avaiyah but it was too late she was already jumping out of the car. People ran as she shot the girl in her knees and I looked down to see a text message "You've missed your appointment for the second time today. Please try again with a different program with a more professional mindset...thank you." "SHITTTTTTT....." me and Louis yelled at the same time . I finished reading and Avaiyah was now pointing the gun towards him...
