Two weeks later...
No words have been exchanged since the last time they had that mini argument before, they did somethings that night. Even after sex, still nothing. It's just been this weary feeling in the house. Meanwhile, Amethyst was being unbothered as usual and didn't take part in any of it. Until this day...
"Amethyst, the apartment is yours." April told her, sitting on her bed. Amethyst looked at her with a blank expression for a few seconds.
"I'm sorry, what?" She said shaking out of her conscience.
"I'm moving out," She shrugged, "I can't be here and I'm definitely dropping out of college."
"You're leaving me here with your boyfriend?" She questioned.
"Ex. You can have 'em." April said in a non-caring tone, shrugging.
"Ex? April, that's your babies' dad. What you doin'?"
"Mimi, we haven't talked in weeks. What's the point anymore? And he's probably still with that other girl." April said standing up, pacing the floor, "Why would I stay with a cheater?"
"I mean, you did before and he was an abuser too." Amethyst brung up. April rolled her eyes, leaning on the door with her arms closed. "Point is, Keith was so good to you. Maybe he's just mourning still, people can be vulnerable and have sex with other people just as a way to mourn. Weird flex, but they do."
"Maybe you're right but, I don't know too much about that kind of mourning." April said, looking aside.
"Well, you were vulnerable once. Then you had sex with Quincy. Speaking of Quincy, Me and Sam—"
As she was going to speak on, there was a sudden knock on Amethyst's bedroom door startling them both. They looked at each other, then the door. "Who is it?"
"Who else? April isn't here." Keith said behind the door. April did leave out but, came back before he came home and went straight into Amethyst room even before putting down her purse.
Amethyst waved to the direction of the closet for April to grab her purse and run into the closet. She closed the closet door as Keith came in at the command of Amethyst.
"Sup, Keith." Amethyst said as apart of 'acting natural'. "What's goin' on with you? You look upset."
"I think I want to find my own place. So, you, April, and the kids get to have this place." Keith admitted sitting on the bed where April was, oddly the same spot.
"Really? You're not even taking Anna?" Amethyst asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No, I can't have distractions. I've been distracted enough and my grades are definitely showing. With the death, the kids, the—"
"Other girl?"
"How'd you know about that?"
Amethyst face palmed before continuing on, "KP, April has been so good to you! I mean she's your babies' mom. Well, two of them. And you're leaving me here with your girlfriend."
"Your sister, my ex-girlfriend."
"Not Ex. Y'all really need to talk this out. I mean she wants to leave college, y'all want to break up and move out. I mean—"
"How do you know she wants to break-up with me?" Keith asked raising an eyebrow. Amethyst was almost about to lie but, she had to tell it in a different way.
"Well... she's been walking around her moping because you haven't been talking to her or paying her any attention. If I were her, I wouldn't have stayed this long with you not talking to me."
