Everything Is Not What It Seems

III

*Boom Boom Boom*

I bolted awake hearing someone banging on the front door. Getting up and opening my door I stared down the dark hallway before going to lay back in the bed with two pillows over my head and one of my ears pushed against the bed as the person kept banging.

"4:00 a.m!!!! Somebody done lost they mind" I heard him yell from the next room.

"I wish he would open the door" I whispered to myself before hearing heavy footsteps from the next room and his door opening. He stopped and starred at the door before looking towards "my" room then sleepily walking towards the door.

"Who is it?!" He yelled to the person and they mumbled back before he opened the door.

"WHO YOU THINK YOU FOOLING RAKIM?! YOU CHEATING ON ME!" a lady yelled as he walked back towards his room and shut the door in her face.

I groaned burying my head into the bed more before hearing his door slam open.

"Nobody playing with you boy!" She yelled as I heard him groan.

"Ain't nobody cheating on you girl, I'm too busy for that, and it's TOO FUCKING EARLY TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION " I heard him say before getting up from wherever he was at and walking across the hall from his room to the bathroom slyly shutting the bedroom door to "my" room.

"And plus, you broke up with me last week for the same thing but I seen you with that nigga bruh, I'm not stupid, you been the one cheating and you convince yourself that I was too so you can feel better........ I'm not playing this game with you no more" he said to her calmly.

"Bye" he said and I heard him walk further away before hearing the front door "get out".

"Lemme sleep in the guest room" I heard her say and heard her walking towards the room as my eyes got big.

Busting in the room before he could stop her, she stopped turning the light on after almost tripping over my bag.

"WHO THE FUCK IS THIS" she yelled pointing towards me as he stepped in front of her yawning.

"Nun of your damn business, I told you to leave and I told you it's too early for this" he said slightly shoving her towards the front door.

"NO, Who is this bitch-" she started before I cut her off "Bitch?" I asked and she shook her head yeah.

"Ok, listen here BITCH , I don't even know this man he just doing his friend Ferg a favor by letting me spend the night here, I don't know what the fuck y'all got going on but don't put me in y'all bullshit, like he said it's 4 a.m and I'm tired so bye" I said turning back over and putting the pillow back over my head.

"See you always tripping, I told you to leave in the first muthafucking place" he said shoving her out, turning off the light, and closing the door to "my" room before I heard the front door close.

"Who the hell come over somebody house at 4am" I heard him say outside of "my" door before slamming his and hearing the sound of him snoring about 30 minutes later.

*TIME SKIP*

Waking up to bunch of laughter outside of "my" room, I noticed I flicked the pillow off the bed in the mist of me sleeping. Getting out of the bed I stretched and grabbed the cover to make the bed back up. Finishing up I heard a knock on "my" door.

"Hey, you up? Can I talk to you" I heard Ferg's voice outside the door and sat on the bed.

"Sure come in" I said and he came in with a girl then shut the door behind him.

"This is my girlfriend Amiera, she wanted to meet you" He said pulling her closer and wrapping her arms around her as she smiled.

"Hi, you already know my name and it's nice to meet you. I wanted to meet you to say that I want to help you get on your feet because living with that asshole in the living room is not something I would want to do" she said laughing and I joined in as Ferg starred at her, shook his head, walked out taking a phone call.

"Thank you soo much, I would love your help, and it's nice to meet you too" I said standing up and holding my hand out so she could shake it.

"No handshakes babe, hugs" she said pulling me into a hug and I hugged her back and she gave me her number on a sheet of paper.

"Ummm...... I don't have a phone" I said looking at her oddly and she chuckled before smiling.

"I know, I'm gonna make Rakim let you use the other phone he got and don't do shit with" she reassured me before walking out and shutting the door behind her.

Letting out a breath of air I didn't know I was holding in, I flopped back on the bed before hearing hard knocks on "my" door a few minutes later.

"Come in" I yelled and sat up to see Rakim with a phone in his hand and another sheet of paper holding it out.

"Hea', She, no they making me give you my back up phone" Rakim said throwing the phone on the bed then walking back out shutting the door.

I picked up the phone glancing at it before sighing and putting it back down.'why are they doing this' I asked myself then started to clean the small things I noticed.

"Hey, you wanna come with us to get something to eat" I heard Amiera say from outside the door and yelled back a sure before getting ready.

Slipping on a jacket, jeans, my shoes, getting "my" phone and the rest of "my" money, I met them at the door.

"Finally" I heard Rakim whisper locking the door before jogging ahead.

"HEY" I looked over to see a man and the women from last night approach us and looked at Rakim. He shook his head and stepped towards then a little.

"Ain't nobody scared of y'all" Rakim said as he continued towards them.

"Nigga backup , all on me and my gir-" the man started but hot cut off by Rakim "Nigga yo girlfriend the one that showed up at my apartment at 4 in da fucking morning talking bout some I'm cheating on her like she ain't already break up with me and got with yo ass , check ya girl before you come to me with that bullshit" he sighed slowly stepping closer to them then stopping and turning around heading towards the train station as they argued.

We followed him silently until we got on the train. Looking down at my fingernails I heard someone talking to me. I looked over at Amiera who seemed to be asking me a question.

"I'm sorry, I zoned out, can you repeat that" I asked and she nodded.

"I said do you have any professional clothes? Like a blouse and a pencil skirt?" I responded with no knowing the reason she asked.

"Well I can get you some what size? And shoe size too, can you walk in heels?" She asked as Ferg and Rakim held their own conversation not paying attention to us.

"I wear a small in shirts, medium in skirts, and a size 5 1/2 in shoes, and sort of not for a very long time , I can only walk in them 15 minutes without resting...................... Also, Thank you, ya' know for all of this , you and Ferg have been so kind and helpful when you didn't have to do any of this" I said and she shrugged.

"It's no problem, honestly" she said hugging me and I hugged back as the boys got up to get off the train.

We followed them not actually knowing where I was going but You only live once, right?
