- Mindless Behavior.

KILO

Damn, I wish I would've cuffed her ass before my brother did. I swear I would've treated her so good. Shawty wouldn't ever cry over a nigga unless she was crying happy tears.  Worst feeling in the damn world is hiding yo feelings for somebody cause yo brother with em. Shit crazy as hell. A nigga had to flex and front to hide it.

"Why you staring at me, Kilo?" she asks. We in the hot tub chillin. We didn't have sex. We kissed then we both just sat there lookin' crazy. I smirk.  "I can't look at you?" I ask. She shrugs her shoulders.  "Can you?" she sarcastically asks, then laughs. I chuckle.  "I'm grown, these my eyes. So, I can look at whateva, shawty." I say. "Why you say shawty so much?" she asks. I shrug my shoulders.  "Just my word, shawty." I answer.  "T.I. lookin' ass." she mumbles.  I laugh and walk over to her. "What you say?" I ask, staring down at her.  She giggles and starts playing with her hands. "That's what I thought." I say. She lightly chuckles.  "Thank you for letting me see my kids. Thank you so much." she says. I nod my head. "You know I got you." I say. She smiles.  I grab her left hand and stare at the diamond on her ring finger. That shit is huge. She slowly moves her hand away. "Why you marry ol dude?" I ask. Her eyes tear up. "I don't... Man... I don't wanna talk about it." she says. "Why not?" I ask. "Cause... you'll hate me and you'll judge me." she says. I chuckle and shake my head. "I doubt it.  What is it?" I ask. "Promise me you won't tell your brother.  I gotta tell him in my own way." she says. "It's that bad, huh?" I ask, watching her cry. "Yeah.  I'm sorry. Just promise to let me tell him in my own way." she sobs. I nod my head. "Aight.  I won't say shit. Now what is it?" I ask.

I can't do shit but stare at her after what she just told me. Shawty got a nigga speechless. It's like I had chills when she told me that shit. "Don't tell him." she sobs. I pull her in my arms. "You got my word, aight? But you gone have to tell that nigga, mane. Come on,  now. That's my blood brother and ion keep nothin' from him. You gone have to come clean, ma. For real." I say. "He gone hate me even more." she says. I shake my head. "Uh... what happened to you?" I ask. "What?" she asks, confused.  "Like... why you do the shit you did? I know yeen just wake up and decide to sell pussy." I say. "King never told you about my past?" she shockingly asks. "Naw. I only called you a hoe to mess with you." I answer.  Truth is, ion really know about her. "Well... my momma forced me into prostitution when I was a little girl. That's all I knew growing up.  Then I met King in high school.  I quit going and home schooled and we lost touch.  I lost my virginity to him. Then I happened to run into him that night. He changed me." she says. "What you hiding shit for? Be real with me. It's more to your story than that." I say. "Man, I know you don't wanna hear that sad shit." she says, shaking her head. "Yeah... I do. Shawty, you ain't the only one who done been through some tough shit. King ever tell you bout our momma?" I ask. "No... I never mentioned it. He's sensitive and shuts down." I say.  "Yeah..." I say. Something about her make me wanna trust her. "Come here." I say. I pull her in my arms. She breaks down crying.  "Let that shit out." I tell her. "It's cool to cry sometime, mane." I say. "I'm a bad person." she sobs. "Naw... You just made fucked up decisions.  Everybody do. It's straight,  Sky." I say. She nods her head.

We pull away from each other.  "Thank you, Kilo." she says, weakly smiling. "Any time, mane. I got you." I say. She nods her head.  I grab her hand and slide the ring from that nigga Money off her hand. "You ain't gotta wear that shit no more." I say. "But he'll tell King and King will kill me." she says. He probably gone turn up on her ass, ian gone lie. "No. Don't think about that right now." I say. "What else is there to think about?" she sarcastically asks. "Me." I answer.  "What about you?" she asks.  I chuckle.  "How good I'll treat you if you let me." I say.  I get behind her and kiss her shoulder.  "And ian talking sexually." I add. "How many women you tell that to?" she asks. "None. Cause ion care.  I'll drop them bitches if that's what you want.  I'm for real.  I can't change the fact you been through some shit but at least I can be the nigga making you smile. Let me." I say.  "I'm your brother's ex..." she says.  "So? What the hell imma let you slip away again for? When I had my chance,  ian take it.  Now that I got it,  I'm not finna give it to no other nigga, not even my brother.  You been mines, you just ain't know it yet.  They say if it's yours, it'll come back in the end.  You mine, shawty. Know that." I say.  She stares at me. "I meant that.  I ain't no kinda nigga to express emotions but mane, I feel for you. This shit deep, Sky." I say. She lays her head on my chest.

Damn, King dumb as hell for fuckin' this up. She got her flaws but she a rider. A real one. I look at her and notice she fell asleep.  I pick her up and step out of the hot tub. I walk back in the house and lock the door.  I walk upstairs and take her swimsuit off.  I ain't even gone disrespect her. I grab one of my tee shirts and put it on her, then cover her up.  I change and get in the bed. Mane,  I ain't ever wanted shit bad as I want Skyler mane. Never.
