A Daddy's World (Urban/New Adult)

Chapter 12

Kodi

It's been almost two weeks with no texts or calls from Trina. Damn.

I knew that she was mad at me but I had no clue that she could hold a grudge this long with me, especially over something so petty and dumb. I've left her messages and tried her phone for almost a whole week. I even tried to facetime the bitch but she won't pick that up either. I stopped calling her after a week of because I'm not going to continue to try too hard for her. I'm not her girlfriend nor her wife, and she's not mine.

I really don't see a reason to make myself out to be a kiss to her ass any longer. The way she's ignoring my calls could have someone really thinking I just divorced her and left with all the cash and none of her kids.

Maybe she's just been working her ass off everyday for the last couple of weeks. Shit, that's what she's been acting like.

At least it's not awkward that me and Oliver have been texting every single day for the last two weeks. We've had a lot of time to ask each other questions. He probably knows more about me now than Dre'Quan does and I know a little about him too. I found out that he is the main connect for a lot of the cops in the city and he's the connect for some people in the surrounding cities. He needs to make runs all day long, so he's rarely free, almost never free.

I'm still curious as to how he met Trina. She's an RN, and registered nurses work all the damn time, like literally all day, for one, two, they work in buildings owned by the government and I'm almost sure he doesn't go near federal buildings.

He told me he keeps a low profile. Very low.

The type of nigga that only goes out during late nights to handle any of his personal business.

He said he does it like that so people won't know him by face, therefore his name should stay irrelevant.

That made me think about how he walked into my job around 5 p.m. During that time of day it's still bright outside and the sun is at its peak.

Today was the hardest of all days to talk to him because Dre'Quan called my phone and said he wanted to chill.

I've been avoiding Dre'Quan for the last couple of weeks to be honest, ever since Oliver took me home that night. The nigga barely even seems to notice.

He's been telling me that he really wants to come over and I've been avoiding that type of text from him up until now. Actually, I've been trying to think of ways to just break up with him. It's starting to feel like there's no reason to keep being with him, considering the feelings I have for Oliver. When Dre came by my house today, we still ended up having sex because we both had some pent up sexual frustration that must've been building up in us from all the time that's passed.

After we were finished, he kept talking about how much he loved me and how he wanted us to get married one day. Blah, blah. I couldn't help myself, so I pretended it was Oliver saying those things to me.

I don't know what it is about that boy, but he has me wrapped around his sexy ass fingers ever since we met. I don't even like touching Dre'Quan the same way I used to. When we were done having sex, I'd really hoped that he'd just want to go so that I could text Oliver back and text him all night, and of course he didn't. Since he stayed a little while, we watched a movie instead and I stayed off of my phone. He ordered Chinese food, but after the movie ended, I told him he had to leave so that I could get ready for work tomorrow. The truth is I don't even have to work tomorrow. I actually just wanted him to go that bad.

I honestly began developing real feelings for Oliver and the feelings I have for Dre'Quan are starting to dissolve like sugar in water.

When he did finally leave, I texted Oliver and he texted me back right away.
