LEEK POV
I starred at the engagement ring that laid in the palm of my hand. Part of me wanted to go run after her but I knew for a fact that whatever I had to say to her she wasn’t trying to hear it. I was hurt, ashamed and disgusted with myself. I had everything any nigga alive wanted. A beautiful girl, she having my first son, sex Soo good , didn’t complain about my occupation and most of all she trusted me. Our relationship was A1 perfect. Nobody had shit on us. We had that Martin and Gina type relationship, now I feel like we ain't got shit. Jody and Yvette were more happier than we are.
***************
I sat at the edge of the bed with my head placed in my hands. I had a banging headache from the lack of sleep I didn’t get and from all the tears I shed. I may sound like a bitch but you’d understand if you ever lost somebody so important in your life.
I laid back onto the bed and tried to close my eyes and get some rest but all I see is Nov breaking down before me. It breaks my heart repeatedly to know that I’m the cause of her heartache. The guilt and remorse I feel is overwhelming. It’s tearing my insides apart. I sat up in the bed and grabbed a towel and night pants. Maybe a shower will help.
After about an hour in the shower and 30 minutes doing my hygiene stuff, I didn’t feel any better. I still felt horrible. I don’t see how people can cheat and be okay with it.
Starring at my reflection in the mirror just pissed me off even more.
“How the fuck you can be so fucking stupid.” I mumbled.
I shook my head at myself as I headed into the bedroom. Looking around the room only brought thought of me having sex with Nova my first day back. I felt like I was the shit.She gave me exactly what I wanted and I repay her by breaking her heart, hitting her brother, betraying her trust and most of all cheating on her.
Asia POV
Sitting in the bed starring at the wall as tears fell freely from my face. Khalid was in his room sleep, Katelynn is in the bed with Khali knocked out and me, I’m sitting up just having deep conversations with myself. My face fucked up because I felt that it was right to defend Laila and my best friend. Shake my head. I guess I was wrong. Maybe I shouldn’t even have friends. Seem like every time I try to gain my friendship back that shit fails. I’m tired of going 2 feet forward only to pushed back 11 more. This shit is tiring and overwhelming. Instead of trying to be buddy buddy with everybody, I’ma just keep my mouth close and only worry about me and mines. That's about the only right thing I could possibly do.
*****
It’s been a couple of days since the big altercation and everybody in the house seems so distant. Nobody is really talking to anybody and dinner is always quiet. Before we use to eat as a big happy family but now…..nope. Everybody comes, grabs a plate and go into their rooms. It’s very depressing but I don’t say anything. I just stay in my lane.
“Da-da, da-daaaaaaaaaaaaaa” Katelynn sung as she crawled around Khalid. I was in the living room watching them and catching up on some homework before class started. Yes, me and Desiree did get accepted into Johnson C Smith University. Now it’s Time to get this work done and work on my degree in nursing.
“Here Tink” He said passing her a Graham cracker. She looked up at him and took it. She started jawing at the cracker and then crawling in circles again.
“Tink ewwww, That’s nasty give it to mommy.” Khalid said pausing his game.
She smiled and started crawling in the opposite direction of him.
