Aaliyah pov~
I was at the store with my friend, when I saw a familiar face. It was Merlin alone for once. I contemplated about walking over to him, but eventually I did."Hey Merlin" I spoke softly.
He turned around and looked at me.
"Oh Hey" He spoke and turned back around.
"So how's everything going?" I smiled.
"Good" He answered never turning around.
"Merlin, can we please talk?" I asked
"We got nothing to talk about?"
I looked down and pulled out the big guns.
"Can we talk, with a side of Detroit Style Pizza, my treat?"
He turned back around.
35 minutes later
"What you wanna talk about Aaliyah?" He asked sipping his Sprite
"First off I want you to forgive me"
He laughed.
"How can I forgive you Aaliyah? I mean you was my wife and you brought a nigga into my home, I could never forgive you for that"
I looked down and kept myself from crying.
"So we can't be friends or anything? I spoke softly
"No. I think it's best we don't be around each other, because every time I see you, I get pissed off" He spoke looking me in my eyes.
"I'm sorry" I cried.
"I know you are" He stood up.
"My treat, cause I lost my appetite" He walked out of the restaurant.
I went to the ladies room and finished crying. After that I fixed my makeup and went out to my driver so he can take me to the studio. Ask I was in the backseat, all I could think about was Merlin and all the good times we had back in high school and college.
The driver parked and opened the door for me, I walked in the studio and BOOM!!! More fuckery. Earl was sleep on the couch with a girl in his arms. I just stood there not really caring at all cause I wasn't surprised.
