RECAP: Chapter 25

"And why is that? Why you ain't there wit' him?" Rihanna asks.

"It was a family emergency. The same time as the iHeart radio concert that I was already on my way to when he told me." I said.

"What was the family emergency?" Rihanna asks.

"Ion," I say shruggin'.

"How you not kno' bruh?" Rihanna said.

"He ain't never tell me." I said.

I'll be home soon prolly a later on bae. Luv you. Safaree sends me.

I start smilin' hard as fuck when I read his message and reply to his text.

"Why you blushin' all hard and shit? He text you?" Rihanna asks.

"Yeah, he did." I said.

"You finna ask him what the emergency is 'bout. " Rihanna said.

Okay boo. I luv you too. What was the emergency anyway?

I text him back.

"I asked, happy?" I sarcastically ask Rihanna.

"Yes," she grins.

"Somethin' ain't right 'bout that." She adds.

I'll tell you when I get home.

"What he say?" Rihanna asks.

"He said he'll tell me when he get back." I said.

"Oh hell no why he can't tell you now? Hell no lemme see it." Rihanna snatches my phone from outta my hands.

Nah tell me now boo. I wanna know. Rihanna sends to Safaree.

"What are you doin'?" I ask her.

"'Boutta prove you wrong and show he a lie." Rihanna said, still textin' him.

Then she gasps and look straight at me. "Damn," she whispers.

"Lemme see. What it say?" I ask, takin' my phone back.

My mom died... Safaree sent me and.I gasp right along wit' her.

Plus she been gettin' all moody and sick and shit so instead of her takin' care of me I'ma do it fo' her. We both layin' inna bed and she seem fine, all snuggled up in my arms. Y'know I'm really startin' to really be deep involved wit' her.

"Hell no. I kinda feel nausea all of a sudden." Bianca said.

"Damn! Again? What the hell wrong wit' you, sick?" I ask.

"Prolly, ion, I'ma go to the doctor but lther than that I'ma take these pills." Bianca said.

"Ard." I said.

Bianca phone go off and she grab it and read her text onna screen; so do I.

I look square at her. "Starbucks?!" All I said.

"Ooh yeah boo Tammy wants me to meet her at Starbucks. Girl time." She says.

"When?" I ask.

"Baby, you okay?" Bianca asks me.

"Yeah, but you all sick and shit. Ion if you should leave boo and plus you gonna be workin'." I said.

"You gonna miss me? Boo I'ma be back before you even fall asleep." Bianca said.

"Ard." I said.

Bianca leaves the room when my phone vibrates onna nightstand.
