Trusting Rose

Chapter 20

Alonzo

Listening to the ring before it went to voicemail I gave up trying to call her. I called 6 times in the last hour. If I ain't pathetic then nobody has ever been in history.

"Maybe she sleep, it is 2 in the morning." I thought to myself.

I can't help it I hate that she is making me feel like this but then again a nigga glad, she good for me. Ever since I seen her yesterday she's on my mind more than usual man.

The only time she ain't is when a nigga sleeping. The shit is irritating as fuck.

Feeling my phone vibrate I rushed and grabbed it seeing it was Reine I took a couple breathes before answering.

"Hello. " She said slurring and I heard music playing in her background.

"Rei?"

"Yesh, yo-you called?"

"Uhm yea I wanted to know when we could get together and talk." I said.

"Wha-what." She laughed. "I can't hear you the music too loud. Hold on I'm finna go outside."

Hearing shuffling over the phone I heard a door close and it wasn't so loud anymore.

"Hello. Z-Zo?"

"Yea I'm here. So about seeing eacho-"

"Oh man Zo I-I missed you and yo-your voice. " She hiccupped stuttering.

"I missed you too Rei. I still miss you" I smiled getting comfy in my bed.

"You know how my heart jumped s-so hard wh-when I seen y-you? I lowkey wanted to kiss you. But you-you really *hiccup* hurt me Alonzo. " She said now sadly.

I don't know what came over me that night. I don't even remember getting in the bed with Aniyah the last thing I remember is us drinking a little after Rei went to bed.

I didn't want to tell her though. She don't need to think I'm lying and I rather not even bring up the whole situation.

"I'm sorry." I said for the thousandth time.

Reine

"Rei where the hell do you keep your damn cereal?" I heard Musiq scream from the kitchen waking me up.

Moving around to feel for my surrounds I found out I was on the couch looking up Kehlani was on the floor with one of the couch pillows and a blanket.

"Rei!!?" Musiq screamed coming closer causing me to realize I have a headache.

"Bitch shut the fuck up-" "Fuck you screaming for" Lani and I said in unison.

"I just wanna know where's the damn cereal." She smacked her lips pouting like a baby.

"It's in the damn cabinet over the fucking silverware gahdamnlemmeafuckinglone." I whined.

"Thank you." I heard her walking away before she squealed. "You bastard." Kehlani tripped her.

Deciding to just end my sleeping session I got up went to the bathroom and washed my face. Looking down at myself I only had on my pants and a sports bra. Grabbing my makeup kit from the cabinet I started wiping all the leftover makeup from my face.
