Chapter 10: Misunderstood

I woke up early in the morning. Last night was way too much for me. What's going to happen between us now? That's all I could think about. I really liked Kentrell. I wish he could see that. This was just a big misunderstanding.

I turned over and seen Joe and Bee in bed. Yuck. I turned back over and got on my phone. I checked my messages. None. I got on Instagram and started scrolling. I was watching people's stories and all. I came across Kentrell's story. My heart dropped. He had posted a picture of some lightskinned girl. Wcw, it read. See, I knew he wasn't serious about being official. He so quick to go find somebody else after we get into it. I'm not even gonna trip on it cus he not even my nigga forreal. I went to the bathroom to take me a shower. I really needed to get my hair done. I took my clothes off, turned the water on hot, and got in. I washed up then brushed my teeth. I got out and dried off and put on my clothes.

1:35 PM
Bee and Joe still weren't up. I sat down on my bed and looked up hair places to go to. Styled by Mae is one I really liked. I called to make sure I could do a walk-in instead of an appointment. She said it was fine. Good, cus BABY. This head right hea 😂. I put the address into the uber app. Ion got my license yet which is why I cant drive Bee's car. The uber said 5 minutes. I grabbed my purse and charger and walked out the door. I was headed to the elevator. Kentrell's hotel room was a few doors down from ours. I seen him coming out so I sped walk. "Come on, hurry up" I whispered to myself. The elevator dinged and I got in. I kept pressing the close door button to hurry it up. I pressed floor 1. I got off and walked to the car. It took 20 minutes to get there.

3:10 PM

"And you're done. Let me take some pictures right quick" Mae said. She took a couple of pictures of my hair. "Send those to me" I said. "I got you" she said. I looked good as fuck. I got to come back to her again. I paid her then went to stand outside so I could call my Uber but Bee called.

"Where you at?" She asked.
"I'm at this salon called Styled by Mae" i told her.
"Awe. Um Kentrell looking for you. You want me to come get you?"
"Why he looking fa me? And yes please. I'm tired of these ubers"
"Send the address and girl i don't know. His high ass came in hea making hella noise talm bout 'where she go? Prolly to go fuck another nigga'. I had to shut his ass down rq. Don't do my bestie"
"Ain't it. He trippin' na. But Ight hurry up doe"
"Ight" she hung up.

She pulled up 20 minutes later. I hopped in.
"Aw bitch. You look fye" Bee said, sticking her tongue out.
"Ya know. I stay with my hair done" I said.
"I need to get mines done but I'll wait on it. You talked to Kentrell? Did he call or text you?"
"No. I just don't know what to say to him right now"
"I understand. But y'all gotta talk eventually. What happened last night was crazy"
"I know, and I feel bad. But he called me a hoe and put his hands on me Bee. That shit ain't coo"
"You right. But what happened at the mall with Self was a misunderstanding. Y'all just had a little moment. Nothing serious. Kentrell was trippin out for no reason"
"Yeah. I guess. When he's ready to talk, we'll talk"

I was lowkey tired when we pulled up to the hotel. We got to the room and Joe was in there. I didn't say anything to him. "Ra, Ian mad at you. You ain't gotta not speak" he said. "Hey Joe" I said, giving a fake smile. "That's better" he said. I rolled my eyes. I laid down on my bed. I got on Instagram. I had a new message from Kentrell. "What this nigga want na?" I said, groaning. I tapped on the message.

nba_youngboy: come talk to me

nationofrara: depends on if you gone put yo hands on me again or not 🙄

nba_youngboy: mane im not gone touch you just come hea

I groaned. I got up and put my slides on. "I'm going to Kentrell's room. He wants to 'talk' na" I told them. "Be careful, Ra. Ion wanna come down there and have to break up another fight" Bee said. I nodded and walked out the room. My heart was starting to race. I didn't know what to expect when I got to his room. I knocked on the door hesitantly. "Who is it?" He asked. "It's Alexis" I said, shaking a little bit. He opened the door and I walked to the bed to sit down. "What we gotta talk about?" I asked, with a attitude. "Why you steady tryna leave me mane?" He asked. "Kentrell, who's leaving you? And you the one who popped out with a new bitch doe. You left me if anything" I said, getting mad. "Alexis, you don't understand. I been hurt so many times befo'. Sometimes when I feel like somebody tryna play me, I gotta be one step ahead of em'. I just need to know if you with me forreal. Ian neva had nun real befo'. I just wanna make sure you stickin' wit me."

I sat there in a daze. I had to take in all that he said. I didn't know him PERSONALLY. Ya know, his background cus he never told me but now I do. "Kentrell, Ian tryna hurt you. What happened with Self wasn't even like that. It just happened. I didn't kiss him, I don't have feelings for him, none of that. It was just awkward. I knew if I told you you would've blew it way out of proportion which you did. Then you steady putting ya hands on me like for what? If we ever get serious, how I know you not just gone be beating on me?" I asked him. "Alexis, ion even be hitting you. I be choking you and you like that shit anyway" he said, laughing. I just rolled my eyes. "But I am sorry I didn't come to you first about it. Even though you would've spazzed out. But you need to apologize for doing too much" I said. "Ian mean to put my hands on you. I don't usually do that. I just been going through some things ya know. I got hella respect fa you I just need you to know that. I would never want you to feel disrespected by me you feel me? I understand why yeen come to me. But in the future, I would rather hear it from you den somebody else about a situation" he said, caressing my hands. "I understand. I accept your apology I guess" I said.

He started smiling. "Come lay down with me", he said. I laid down on the bed and Kentrell laid his head in between my legs. I started playing in his hair. "Kentrell" I called, "Yea?" He answered. "I wanna be official with you. Forreal." I told him. He looked up at me. "You serious?" He asked. I nodded my head. He leaned up to kiss me. "Fashoo" He said. My phone started ringing in my pocket. It was Londell. I answered it. "What Dee?" I asked. He was crying. "They killed pops Ra" he said. I dropped the phone.
