Aliyah Pov

We got back home around two in the morning. Symone was knocked out and Trey had her stay with him. August ignored me the whole night because for some reason he didn't't want me there. I actually had a good time Andre wasn't't as bad as August made him seem. He was really nice, a bit of a flirt but I made it clear I was with  August.

I heard someone banging on the door but I tried ignoring it cause I know Symone as her key. The person kept banging until I finally decided to get up. I throw my legs over the side of the bed slowly lifting my upper body of the soft surface before before dragging my feet on the cold floor to the door.

"Symone don't you-" I cut myself off realizing it wasn't Symone.

"Mom what are you doing here?" I ask shocked

"Hello to you too sweetie" she smiled

"Sorry mom I didn't know you were coming." I apologized opening the door so she can come in.

"So... um what are you doing here?" I ask

"I can't come visit my daughter"

"Of course, but you could've called first" I fake smiled

"Sorry sweetie, but I've been trying to call you and you weren't answering" she said sitting down on the sofa.

"Sorry mom but I've been busy with school and stuff" I lied

"Aaliyah who's at the door so fucking early in the morning" August walked out in nothing but his boxers.

"Aaliyah who's this?" Mom ask glaring at August

"Um... he's my roommate" I mumbled my feet suddenly becoming interesting.

"These are the type of people you've been living with" she said her eyes still glued to August.

"Its not nice to stare" August said

"Mom-" she cut me off

"These are the types of people you've been hanging with. This is why you've been falling back in college. I raised you better than this-" I cut her off

"Mom can you leave him out of this cause you can't run my life alright. Mom I'm 20 for god sake and he's my boyfriend" I said mumbling the last part.

"Young lady I raised you better than this. I didn't raise you to be with no thug" I cut her off.

"Mom stop. I'm not doing this with you. I chose whoever I wanna be with and you should be happy with whoever I choose" I gritted

"Don't talk to your mother like that and when he breaks your heart don't say I didn't warn you" she said getting up walking out slamming the door.

I sighed sitting down  back on the couch.

"Your mom seems nice." August says sarcasm thick in his voice.

"August that's not funny. I picked you over my mom" I said

"Your mom's very judgmental" he said ignoring everything I just said

"I know that's why I didn't  want her over here" I said

"You didn't want her to know about me" he ask and a look of hurt showed on his face but it quickly disappeared.

"August babe of course not. I just wanted to tell her instead cause now she won't let this go."

"What she doesn't like black nigxas are something " he said with light chuckle

"Yea but my dad was in the drug business back then and he broke her heart and from then she's been edgy about black guys. She wants me to be with some rich nigxa or according to her someone with a future" I explain. His face softened and he sat next to me pulling me on his lap.
