Love Or Toleration (Book 1)

Tamika

Kym be tripping. I don't know what's the problem between us been lately. She be all up my ass and I be as distant as I can be. I don't mean no harm but damn give me space. I love Kym, I really do. But lately she be wanting to know where I'm at, who I'm with, what I'm doing. It gets annoying. I want to be with her but right now she just doing too much. My phone vibrated in my pocket. I took it out and read the text from Kym. "Even though you treat me like shit I love you and goodnight" I read the text to myself. I sighed "Damn" I said to myself out loud. I need to talk to her asap. I dont mean to treat her like shit as she puts it. I just want some space sometimes.

I'm off work tonight so I decided to just chill. I don't smoke. I don't drink. I take care of Tatiana and prepare for Tonio. I watched T.I. and Tiny till I dozed off.

*Next Morning*

"Tamika." I heard Tatiana say waking me up. "What sis?" I asked wiping my eyes. "Look." She said standing in front of me. I looked up to see my lil sis dressed nicely from head to toe with her hair in a messy but cute ponytail. "You look cute lil girl." I said hugging her. "You ate yet?" I asked. "No." "Well come on I'll take you to get French toast then drop you off at school." I said grabbing my keys. She ran to get her bookbag and we got in the car. I drove to burger king and went to the drive thru. Ordered Tatiana French toast and got myself a slush. I was pulling up at the gas station to get gas when something interesting caught my eye. Kym hugging some short darkskin stud. She looks familiar. I pulled up and pumped my gas. As I was watching Kym saw me and she looked guilty. I shook my head, paid for my gas and drove away. Took Tatiana to school then back home. I got in bed when my phone vibrated.

Bae: Babe I swear it was nothing. Just giving her a ride to school. I promise and I love you. Call me later.

Me: Pick up Tatiana when you get Monte and Zari. Come over after. Have a good day at school.

I put my phone on charger and drifted to sleep. Finally some fuckin peace.
