"Hold on, Im coming!" I yelled. I raced to the front door and stood on my tippy toes to look out the peep hole. I sighed once I seen who it was. I undid the locks and cracked the door open. "What do you want August??" I asked plainly. "Damn, why you cracked the door open like Im the police or some shit." He said with a smirk. "Why are you here?" I restated.
"Can I come inside?" I shifted my weight to my right foot and shook my head. "No, you can stand outside." He sighed. "Ight...I know we haven't been in the best space lately, but you can't stay mad forever ma." I rolled my eyes a little. "And with that being said, you know my birthday's in a few days." "I know." I mumbled.
"Ariana's throwing me this celebration thing and I want you to come." I sighed. "No thanks." He sucked his teeth. "Come on, you know my mama gon be there, and Craig gon be out there too, he really wants to see you." I nodded. "Like I said before, no thanks. I'll mail you your gift, if I get you one." He sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. "What's really up with you?? I know you ain't trippin off the fact that I got my girlfriend pregnant."
I shook my head. "I don't care about that, it's not my problem." He nodded. "Ight well if you feel that way, then you should come." I sighed. "I'll think about it."
"Think about it?" I nodded. "That's better than a no." He smirked. "I guess I'll take it, I'll send you the info just in case you come." I nodded and pushed my door closed. I hated how he acted as if nothing happened between us, like our fight in Atlanta didn't happen. I took a deep breath and walked into my living room, grabbing my phone off the coffee table. I dialed a number and placed the phone to my ear.
TREY: "Hello?"
ME: "Hey, is it a bad time?"
TREY: "No, my mom's sleeping, wassup?"
I sighed.
TREY: "Oh god, what is it now?"
He asked in a chuckle.
ME: When are you coming back?? Im dying here without you."
TREY: "I don't know, my moms not showing any signs of getting better, I don't wanna be away from her when she finally passes."
I sighed.
ME: "Yeah, I know."
TREY: "But if you need me there that badly, I can see what I can do to come back for a few days."
I smiled a little.
ME: "No, that's okay Trey, stay with your mom."
TREY: "Alright, well what's wrong? I can tell by the tone of your voice that's something's wrong."
I sighed.
ME: "Well for starters, I told August how I felt."
TREY: "Really? and how did that go?"
ME: "Terrible, I shouldn't even have said anything, his head is so far up Ariana's ass, nothing else even matters."
Trey chuckled.
TREY: "Well that's his girlfriend, you can't be mad at that."
ME: "I know, but still..it's annoying."
TREY: "Of course it is, because you still love him."
I sighed.
ME: "I know......he got her pregnant Trey."
TREY: "Who?"
I sucked my teeth.
ME: "Ariana."
TREY: "She's pregnant?....Damn."
I sighed.
ME: "I know I shouldn't be upset about it, but I kinda am, and I don't know what to do."
TREY: "How you feel is not going to change over night, just give it some time to get over it."
ME: "But that's the thing...I don't think I can."
He sighed.
TREY: "So are you saying your finaly done with him?"
ME: "I don't know...I kind of feel that way...besides, it's kind of obvious he has officially moved on."
TREY: "Yeah, well I can't tell you what to do, just go with how you feel."
ME: "I know."
I mumbled.
TREY: "But on to more important things, how are you and the baby?"
ME: "We're good, I'm geting huge, but Im managing."
He chuckled.
TREY: "Im sure you still look beautiful."
THE NEXT DAY
"So where is this party at??" Ellis asked me as he sat ontop of Kerri's counter. "I don't know yet, August hasn't sent me all the details yet." He shook his head. "Mhm, so are you going??" I nodded slowly. "Yeah, I told him I would be there..so." Kerri sighed. "Are you sure you actually wanna go? Why would you wanna torture yourself and watch Ariana and August be all lovey dovey for lord knows how long." Ellis nodded.
"Thats true sus, or you could just bring us along to keep you entertained." I chuckled. "Thanks, but no thanks, y'all don't need to be nowhere near Ariana right now, especially you Ellis." He fanned me off. "Did he even apologize about how he treated you in Atlanta?" I shook my head. "No, he's basically been acting like nothings happened, It's strange." Kerri sighed. "Look, I can handle this on my own, Im just gunna go and come back and get it over with." Kerri nodded. "Alright, but if you need us, we're just a call away." I laughed. "I'll remember that."
