Unfazed

Twenty-Eight

"So y'all are together? Or together together?," Taylor asked on the other side of the receiver. I giggled, rolling my eyes playfully. I looked over at Julian who was asleep and still holding me tight as if I were about to vanish.

"Together as in he's asleep after having sex until the sun rose," I replied slyly as I kept my voice down, making sure not to wake him up.

"BITCHH, lemme find out my good sis is snatching souls," she shrieked in shock forcing me to move the phone from my ear.

Julian slowly opened his eyes just to look up at me and see what I was doing. "Listen, I'm going to have to call you back," I dragged as I felt Julian's hands roam all over my body.

"Mhm, okay I see you. Gon' head and get that soul snatched," Taylor chanted before hanging up.

Julian rose up and slipped on his polo briefs that he possessed last night. He brushed his fingers through his thick curly hair before heading to the bathroom. As I tried to get up, I felt sharp pains in my inner thighs. I sighed realizing I had to stay in bed for a few more moments. What better way to let time go faster than to take a nap?

I felt Julian get back into the bed and felt more assurance when he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer.

"I missed this," he mumbled into my neck and followed after with a kiss.

"I did too, Ju Ju," I replied sinking deeper into his warmth. Not long after, I heard his light snores filling up the room. Finally. It was my turn.

And it was as soon as I closed my eyes, dozens of notifications swarmed my phone. "Who the fu--"

Unlocking my phone, I had gotten notifications from Taylor, Dee, Rodney and people that I don't even talk to.

Bitch, you need to go and see Ta'Shay's live!!
Dee at 3:45 p.m.

I squinted my eyes trying to capture all the texts and notifications at once. I scrunched my eyebrows trying to analyze what was going on. Why does she have my name in her mouth? It seems like every time I run away from the negative it draws me in. Fuck it. Maybe I need to be negative.

I removed Julian's arms from around me and sat up. Going into my DM's and clicking on Ta'Shay's live video.

"....stole her man. Bitch, his head game isn't even good anyway. The nigga didn't even make me cum."

The viewers' reactions were mixed. Some of the viewers were egging her on, others were dragging her for filth, and some were just peeping stuff out commenting eye emojis here and there.

"Loyalty Parker is a fraud ass bitch! She thinks she's so gangsta and so tough. She got some hoes to jump me while I was purchasing gas. Over a nigga! Sis, get over it. He doesn't want a fat ass, cheating ass bitch like her."

"She don't even know what she wants. She fucked Taylor White and Rodney Davis. Didn't sis get an abortion? Sis, is a whole thot. So when she sees me, run up! The fuck? Nobody is scared of her."
