21 and ready for law school -- Aisha's eyes are finally opening to see the true darkness that lies inside herself and Delontae. What will she do about it??
"We fell in love in ugly places... in a rush to feel yo love I'm so impatient... you got me paralyzed in this cold, cold, world.. and I'll probably be alone forever if this shit don't last with you girl... I wasn't tryin' to waste yo time..."

DELONTAE'S POV

When I get to my building I get the thumbs up from the head of my security, standing here waiting on me. I nod and drop my head.
Security just let me know that Kinte is up in here...
I knew it. The elevator opens and my heartbeat speeds up. I put on a cool, fake smile tho, and as I'm walking down the hallway of my building to Grayam's office, my employees smile back, wave or nod at me:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Tolliver." I get the respect, warm, polite greetings, while on the inside I'm furious as da fuck with my brother. Ready to crack his fuckin' head open while I'm still feelin' the loss of my baby brother Droopy... I'm mad as fuck feeling like killin' my fuckin' self! Not wanting it to end this way between me and Kinte. This shit fucked up.
But he done made it this way.
My mind races of a way to salvage our relationship or make dis shit right as I walk up on Grayam's office, turn the corner to it, I get even madder as through the glass, my eyes take in how Kinte is leaning over Grayam's shoulder. Her eyes meet mine.
He's forcing Grayam to give him some shit, this mothafucka--
"What's up?" I say when my brother stands up straight, his eyes locked with mine. He straightens the pant leg of his jeans, and Grayam's eyes dart from me to Kinte dominatin' over her. Yeah. He done scared her up, real good.
"Clear this floor Grayam, get everybody off this floor," I tell her. She hurries up and picks up her phone, obeying me while my brother just stands there, lookin' at me.
"Sit down Kinte," I stare back at him...
His eyes water up...
"What's up baby bruh?" he asks me instead.. knowing full well what's up.
"Just-- tryin' to see what's goin' on," I answer him as the glass door finally closes behind me, all the way shut. It clicks.
And I can feel the fear in Grayam and the tension up in here. And my pain. I keep my eyes on my brotha tho.
"What da fuck you in here doin'? Hm?" I ask him..
