2 Months Later
November 22, 2016

~Harlem~
You would think 2 months go by and Alonte and Lani would be together.......but no. They both playing.
Anyways, Mally woke me up, cause Lani wasn't moving or some shit. I followed him downstairs and saw her staring at her phone
"Lani, what are you staring at?" She handed me her phone. I looked over multiple times.
From: Laysia
-Hey, I figured you had the same number, but I'm in town for Thanksgiving Break, and was wondering if you would come to ma's house for Turkey Dinner.
"So, are you gonna go?" She shrugged.
"I don't know, I was gonna hang with Lonte"
"Talk to him" She got up and hugged me.
"Great idea, later"

~Alonte~
My mom went to work, so Tay I started working out. He was playing with his toy weights while I did push ups.
I heard beating on the door and immediately knew who it was. I picked up Tay and walked upstairs. I opened the door and saw Lani standing there eating Sour Punch Straws.
"Um Hello?" She looked up and started staring at me. "Lani" She bit her lip.
"H-Huh?"
"My face is up here" She looked a while longer then looked up at me.
"Sorry, I need to talk to you" I let her in and she grabbed Tay.
"Okay? What's up?" We sat down and she showed me her phone. "What exactly am I looking at?"
"Read the first text on the list" I looked and pressed -Laysia-. I read the message and looked at Lani.
"So what's wrong?"
"I'm scared Lonte"
"Do you want me to go with you?" I asked.
"Will you?"
"Yeah" She put Tay down and hugged me.
"Thanks, but I have to get to work" I gave her another hug and watched her leave.
"Now It's time for you nap lil man" I rocked Tay to sleep and laid him in his room. I got all this space with nothin- Scratch that.
I grabbed my phone, pressed
-Breezy-, and walked in my room.
"Hello"
"Yeah, I'ma need for you to slide thru, the door will be open" I heard her sigh.
"Aight, be there in 10" I nodded and hung up.

The door opened and I sat up.
"I thought you had a girl?" I shook my head.
"Nah, just a girl I'm talking to, but I ain't call you over here to chat, you know wassup" She walked over and we got down to business.

~Claudine~
I picked up the shirt and folded it.
"Harlem, I hate you" I said jokingly.
"Man, Why?"
"Cause yo ass got Assistant Manager" She laughed.
"So? All that means is more work and $3 added to my check" I laughed along with Lani who walked in.
"He said he would come"
"Who?"
"Laysia texted me saying she wanted me to come over my mom's house for Thanksgiving and I didn't wanna go alone so I asked Lonte" I smirked at her.
"I'ma murk both of y'all asses if y'all don't get together" I said walking behind the counter.
"Whatever" She got behind on the other side and we started making sure everything was straight.

~Leilani~
I just got off work, and decided to stay with Tay and Lonte tonight.
I hopped in my Benz and headed over to his house. I pulled up to the gate.
"Hey Tristan" I said to the guard.
"Hello Ms. Turner, is Mr. Warren expecting you?"
"No, I decided to surprise him and Tay" He smiled and opened the gate. I handed him a $10.
"Have a nice night" I waved and pulled in. I parked and got out. I used my key, walked upstairs, and opened his door.
"Lonte, I decided to com-" I covered my mouth and looked at him. He didn't see me at first but when he did he looked at bitch beside him.
"Woah, Ma, it ain-"
"Cut the shit Alonte, why the hell are you sleeping with some random bitch?"
"Chill, I wa-"
"No, and then Tay is in the other room sleep, what the actual fuck?"
"Lani, I-"
"No, you are wron-"
"Dammit LeiLani, I can do what the fuck I please, me and you ain't together so why you mad huh? And Tay is my damn son, you ain't gotta worry about him, I know what the fuck I'm doing, I was doing good before you came along anyways, I don't need you"
I stared at him and laughed.
"You right, we ain't together, so why am I worried?" I threw my key at him and threw the keys to my Benz at him.
"Wait, what are you doing?"
"If that's how you truly feel then I don't want none of your shit" I grabbed my bag and threw all the jewelry and shit he bought me. "I'm out and don't hit my line either" I zipped up my jacket and ran out.
I ran all the way to Harlem's house. Which means I was running/walking for about 5 hours.
I walked up to the door and walked in.
"What the hell happened to you?" I saw Harlem and Quan cuddled up on the couch, along with Cece and Zay.
"Nothing, just the fact that I walked from Alonte's bitch ass house to here, and that I no longer give one nor two fucks about his ass"
I ran upstairs and hopped in my bed. I can truly say.........I hate my life.
