We arrived at his trap house. I got out the car and followed him inside.
"Kingston what the hell ? I told you at the mall you ca-"
"Shut the hell up Eli. You don't know shit about her so quit judging her " Shawn snapped
I sat down on a near by couch. As a boy whisper in Kingston ear.
"Get the fuck in line" he yelled
Everyone stood in a line.
"So who wanna steal from me?" He question
Some of the workers looked bored but one person stood out the most. I got off the couch and stood next to Shawn. He looked down at me confused
"I think I know who it is" i whispered
He nodded his head.
I walked up to the boy that was talking about me, I patted him down and found 5 small cocaine sacks in his pockets,hat,shoes. Then I found a few stacks in his jacket.
This nigga was sweating hella hard.
I threw everything on the ground were everyone can see what I found. I looked at the corner of my eye and seen a female trying to hid something in her bra. I walked over to her and unhooked her bra and eight bags of weed fell out.
"My work here is done" i said walking away.
The I heard bullets going off, I turned around and the two people was lying in their on puddle of blood
"Take care of this shit" he yelled
He walked up to me smiling and shit.
"Thanks ma" he said
"Mhm" I said
"I don't want to stay here. I wanna lay in my bed and cry myself to sleep" I said sitting on the couch
"Why?" He asked sitting down putting my feet in his lap
"Because my fucking mother died. My heart, my everything, my first love, the women who gave birth to me, my bestfriend" I cried
"Layla, I know how you feel. I went through the same thing. But crying and being depress and stressing doesn't does anything but slowly kill you . You have a daughter to worry about. Your mother is in a better place baby girl. Keep your head up" he said
I laid my head on his shoulder and silently cried
"King- oooohh am I interrupting anything?" A dude said opening Kingston's office door
"Wassup" Kingston said
"I was about to ask you do you want to go to the club?" He asked
"Na, not tonight. I'm stay with Layla tonight" he said
The dude kisses his teeth
"I'll be fine Kingston, you can go" I said sitting up.
"No I'm not going." He simply said
The dude kissed his teeth again
"Man, she's just like the other broads, only want you for your money" he snapped
"Just go Kingston. I'll walk home" I said standing up
"I'm not going. Trill shut the fuck up, you don't know what she's going through. She have reasons why she dance. Like you have reason for selling drugs. Stop judging a book by its cover, did she start judging and assuming shit about you? No. Why you throwing shady? She ain't even did shit to you" Kingston snapped back
The dude sighed
"Iight man, you're right. I'm sorry-"
"Layla" I said
"I'm sorry Layla for judging you... Umm hopefully we can get to know each other. I see Kingston growing some feelings for you, because if it was any other female he wouldn't gave a damn about what I say" he said
"Like Kingston said I have my reasons for stripping, I have to take care of my daughter and I had to pay for hospital bills for my now deceased mother. Don't judge a book by it's cover because you don't know what they're going through" I said wiping a few tears that escaped
"I'm sor-"
"Please stop apologizing, I'm tired of everyone showing me sympathy and saying sorry. I'm fine. Shawn can you please take me home" I said as my voice start to crack.
He sighed
"Let's go" he said
I stood up and we walked out of the trap
-
He pulled up at my house. I got out the car and unlocked my house. I walked inside and headed upstairs with Shawn following me. I walked in my room and kicked my shoes off, I stripped out of my clothes and got inside the bed. Few minutes later I felt a dent in the bed. Shawn pulled me closer to him and I fell asleep in his arms.
