Mariah POV:

When I wake up...I turn over ta see August zoned completely out. I check tha time then look back at him. Yesterday he came back in a fucked up ass...attitude. And obviously...it carried on ta today.

Me: "Aug..."

No response...

Me: "August..."

I wait. Still no response...

Me: "Anthony!"

August: "What!? Why are you yellin', MeMe? I'm right next ta you..."

Me: "Seriously?! I wouldn't have ta yell if you answered me tha first two times I called your name..."

August: "Well, you gotta talk a lil louder..."

Me: "Dats why I yelled..."

I close my eyes and sigh.

Me: "Look. Why are you up so dang early?"

August: "Why are you up so dang early?"

Me: "I asked first..."

August: "I couldn't sleep. Yo turn..."

Me: "I have an appointment. I told you dis yesterday..."

He raises his eyebrow.

August: "No you didn't..."

Me: "Yes...I did. I said I set one up after you left. Aug. You weren't listening ta me were you?"

August: "You never said anything about an appointment, MeMe..."

I slowly rub my hand down my face and push my hair back. I sit on tha side of tha bed grabbing a hair tie and put my hair in a bun.

Me: "Dis is what happens when you don't listen. What is wrong wit chu, bruh?"

August: "Nothin'..."

Me: "Yes it is. You came in yesterday wit yo attitude fucked up. Pissed off at tha world like someone did you wrong..."

I walk in tha bathroom and grab my toothbrush.

August: "I'm good. It was juss a bad day yesterday..."

I come out and look at him.

Me: "So, bad you wanted ta hurt somebody?" I asked as I brushed my teeth

August: "It was horrible..."

Me: "Well, what got chu so pissed? Because when you're mad...you don't sleep. And obviously you don't listen ta anybody..."

August: "You really never told me bout dat appointment..."

Me: "Again. Yes, I did. You juss proved my point..."

I finish brushing my teeth and wash my face. After I dry my face, I walk back into tha room.

Me: "See...you're doin' it again..."

August: "MeMe..."

Me: "What?"

He motions me towards him. I walk over and he grabs my hand.

August: "Give me a kiss..."

Me: "What tha-"

August: "I want a kiss..."

He puckers his lips. I give him a kiss and he deepens it. He pulls me closer ta him and I slightly, almost forgot what I was talkin' about. So, I had ta get back on track!
