In the Name of Love

Chapter Two

I woke up the next morning not remembering when I even fell asleep. I cried and cried all last night. I was trying to analyze what I had ever did to this man for him to hurt me this way. I was always willing to risk any and everything for him

As I was laying in my king size bed in my dream house that I was supposed to be sharing with my dream man; I felt completely numb to everything. It was one of those days where I couldn't even pull myself together to go into the shop and pretend everything was okay.

I laid there staring at the ceiling with a million thoughts running through my mind. I wished my brother CJ was still alive for me to talk to.

When Kendrick and I first started dating, he was head over hills for me. There wasn't anything he wouldn't do for me and there was nothing he felt I didn't deserve. Now, 6 years later we were here. 6 years later, I found out that I was in love with a liar. He was a man that didn't come home at night, cheated on me and when he felt like he had done enough bullshit to me for that week, he tried to make it up to me with gifts, broken promises, and dick.

I was 29 and I pictured myself married with a baby boy now. Keyz keep promising me all these things, but at this point, I could only ask myself why I would even do that to myself. Why marry my hurt? Why would I even bring a baby into this situation; for them to watch their father disrespect their mother? So that my daughter could think this was how you're supposed to be treated by a man or my son could think this was how you're supposed to treat a woman?

NO!

My phone started to ring on the nightstand. I rolled over and picked it up off the nightstand. It was Katrina, I ignored the call and put the phone back on the nightstand; I was in no mood to talk. I would get back to her later.

I rolled over to face the other side of the bed and was greeted by gifts and a note attached that read, I'm sorry.

I screamed and pushed the gifts on the floor. "This doesn't fix anything."

My phone started to ring again. I turned back to my nightstand and picked up the phone. I ignored the call again and put my iPhone on do not disturb.

A few minutes later, my house phone started to ring.

I kicked in the bed, throwing a little fit like a kid.

I got out of the bed and walked downstairs, while screaming, "LEAVE ME ALONE, DAMN!"

I answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Yo Sasha, it's me, Katrina. I called your cell, but you didn't answer," Katrina said into the phone.

I rolled my eyes and said, "Katrina, I got some stuff going on, that's why. What's up, what you need? Is the shop good?"

Katrina answered back quickly, "The shop is fine Sash', but this chick is here saying she's waiting on you, but she's gives me an odd vibe."

I looked confused. I was sure I had no appointments booked today.

"What you mean an odd vibe?"

"She's giving off this negative vibe, you know I'm all into that shit, Sash', I can tell. She's sitting in here with her hood on, her arms crossed and she's shaking her legs like she's ready to snap," Katrina informed me.

I walked over to the den while Sasha was still talking. I got on the computer to check and see if I had an appointment scheduled today that I had forgotten about.

"Well, I'm not coming in today so tell that hoe that and send her on her way because according to Style Seat, I don't even have any appointment today," I told Katrina.
