18: Snapped, Shattered, and Cracked

I don't understand the point of an ex-lover, to be quite frank, I don't believe that the term 'ex' should be used anymore. I was never a girl to acknowledge my exes, I would Nicki Minaj the shit out, you know talk so much shit about you but will never mention your name. That's how I am now and probably will be forever.

But anyways, the term 'ex', I feel like it should be banned from all human language, once we're done it's over good riddance and every time 'IDFWU' by Big Sean comes on just know that I'm talking about you. And that's how I feel about this particular ex, and I'm pretty sure you know the ex, without having me to name drop. The same ex who is more worried about me than trying to not be the worst team in the league, the same ex who cheated on me and got a taste of it in return.

I have to formally announce that you all suck as fans because you should have told me that what I was doing was a huge mistake, and that I was a fucking idiot, even my mother didn't say anything about me being back with him and she never even liked him when she found out what his profession was (she doesn't believe that being a basketball player is not a stable enough job) or my friends they just sat there and let me have this man back in my bed.

But to play devil's advocate I have to admit that I am a grown woman and I pay my own bills and make my own decisions, so I should have no one tell me that what I was doing was wrong and just plain stupid...

"I am so sorry." Liu said coming into my bedroom shutting the door behind her and placing her back to it.

Frowning I shut my laptop and turned around to face her, "What are you talking about and—"

"Majesty Antoinette Jewels voy a matarte." I heard Robyn yell in Spanish.

She was pissed.

My eyes widened before they narrowed into slits, "What did you tell her Lulu?"

"Listen," Squealing when she began to hear Robyn bang on the door she blurted out, "Robyn asked me if there was something going on between you and Bala because—"

"Open the door I just want to talk." Robyn said becoming eerily calm.

Holding up a hand at Liu I said, "Don't you dare open that door."

"Abre la puerta Liu!" She yelled banging on the door again, "Solo déjame llegar a ti pequeña niña."

Rushing to the door I moved Liu out the way and locked the door, "Finish what you were saying."

"She became suspicious because of the chemistry you two had on television and she threatened to release that nude photo of me with ASAP Rocky." She finished.

Her banging on the door got harder, "You're forgetting mi amor, I'm Latina and this damn door is just un pedazo de papel from where I come from."

Sighing I knew there was no winning this fight, opening the door her hazel eyes were narrowed into slits, "Don't you think it would be smart if you tell me that you're screwing a casado man."

Sitting back on my bed I placed my head in my hands, "I didn't know what we were doing Robyn until...we were doing it."

"What am I supposed to tell all the magazines and social media users who are suspecting you for sleeping with him." She said through clenched teeth.

Picking my head up from my hands and frowned, "What are you talking about?"

Letting out a little laugh she began to pace the room and I noticed that she was wearing workout clothes, "See you have been on this damn 'social media' free journey that you haven't noticed that I'm not the only one who saw what was happening between you two in that ring."
