Get Up 10

Chapter 38 - Secure

Ambrosine

The palms of my hands began to sweat. I stood to my feet and paced back and fourth waiting for this crazy ass bitch to answer the phone. He stared with a concerned look but he didn't say anything.

She had me fucked up doing some dumb shit like that to this man after abandoning me. I was tight and she was going to feel me whether she liked it or not.

' You have reached the voicemail box of..'

" This bitch got the time to set people up but can't answer the phone!?" I was heated and wanted to get rid of all this stress.

" Chill out. I'm good. It will get handled" He grabbed me by my hand pulling me in between his legs. I lowered my head onto his shoulder. I felt bad.

" What are you going to do?" I stared up at him. He stared down at my with a blank expression.

" Saint..." I mumbled.

" I thought you were upset with her? Now it's Saint. Make up your mind bro."

" I don't want anyone to get hurt."

" Yet I did."

" Josiah it's not going to solve anything. Let me handle it."

" And how do you plan on doing that?" He asked.

" Give me her number."

" Nah. She won't get the satisfaction of easily getting in contact with you. It's exactly what she wants."

" I'm grown. I can make decisions for myself."

" I'm not doing this with you." He sighed.

" You can't control what I do." I reached for his phone but he held it away from me.

" Ambrosine stop. Just let me handle it okay?" He held my face.

" So what should we do?" My voice grew softer.

" I like how that sound." He chuckled.

" What?"

" We "

" Saint let's not start. You know there is no us." I maintained a soft tone with him. Maybe it would get me exactly what I wanted. I was desperate for that number. I had so many questions.

" Whatever you say beautiful." He sat closer to me.

" Why don't we talk about us instead? I want you." He added.

" Why you don't just find some other girl to pursue. Why bother me?"

" You perfect for me." He said.

" You don't even know me."

" But yet you had my seed growing inside of you. I was good enough to be your baby daddy but not your nigga? What sense does that make? You wanted a nigga to take care of you or something?" He frowned.

" Here you go." I sighed. He was doing the most. If he wanted me back in his life, this wasn't the way to do it.

" Nah let's talk about it."

" I'm good." I stood up to walk out. He grabbed my arm and pulled me back down into his lap.

" Ambrosine stop playing with me." He grabbed my face and tried to kiss me. I pulled away but he held on to me tightly.

" I don't want nobody else but you." He said.

" Please respect my boundaries." I pushed away from him.

He sucked his teeth, stood up and handed me the new iPhone box.

" I don't want to make you uncomfortable. I'm not going to over step anymore. I thought maybe I needed to be persistent. I'm not trying to come off as a creep." He mumbled.
