AISHA'S POV

I drowsily wake up when I hear him whispering, apologizing, and I feel him rubbing my hair. And I want him to, but suddenly I remember what happened, and why I'm hurting in my heart, and I'm so mad at him. Even in my sleep.

I stare into his eyes when I'm fully awake. And I can see everything he wanna say to me. But I don't wanna hear it, and I push his hand away.

He hurt me.

Tae stands up and walks across the room rubbin' his head. I drowsily stare at his wedding band on his finger, and wonder if he pulls it off when he gets around these bitches.

"You don't wanna be married no more. Do you?" I whisper it. and Tae turns around and looks back at me.

"I been married to you since you was born. And you know it. Ain't shit gone change. This shit between me and you ain't gone change," he says and drops his head when he sees the tears in my eyes.

"Oh yeah? Seem like it changed to me. You standin' there with yo head down and shit. You know you wanted to fuck that bitch behind my back. Why you can't watch me cry?" I say to him..

"Say sum'm nigga," I dare him.. my heart hurts, waaaay worse than my fuckin' arm. But I'm too drowsy from pain killers to beat his ass..

"I ain't do shit wit that bitch Isha-"

"Yes you did. Yes you did," I point my finger!

"No fuck I didn't. I went, I pulled up, yeah, but- Aisha I stumbled but I ain't fall, I won't never fall. Never," he tells me.

"Hell naw Tae, nigga you went, that's the problem, you pulled up over that hoe house!" I cry to him! I'll kill the fuck out this nigga playin' with me! 

"All I can do right now? Is be honest," he tells me while I sob.

"Nigga fuck yo honesty," I snarl back!

"Aisha I ain't fucked dat bitch! Or nobody else since you turned 17. And that's what's bothering me," he blurts it out.

"So you tired of me? You feel like you gotta fuck around on me to prove somethin'?" I cry to him in hysterics! No the fuck he didn't just that!

"Fuck naw! Will you calm down? I'll never get tired of you. I'm saying tho-- It's you -- you the one who tired of me it seems like. You graduatin' and shit and growing away from me. That's how I feel," he admits, turnin' his back to me like he shame about it.
