Down On Your Luck

"I'm tryin to save a hoe who don't wanna be saved. Never thought you could be this way. You used to be my prided dime"

I stormed out of the house angry and quickly walked to the car, getting in the drivers seat. My vision blurred as I angry hit the steering wheel over and over trying to release some angry.

How could I be so stupid and blind to the fact that my girlfriend was cheating? With my best friend too?

I shook my head and started the car, speeding off I could get the image of Rae and Rome out of my head.

I decided I needed to find Mel and talk to him about all this shit, so after driving around for a little bit I ended up at Crystal's house.

I got out the car and knocked on the door a couple times until it opened.

"August? What are you doing here?" Crystal asked holding my niece in her hands.

"I know Mel said he was planning on comin' over here later and I need to talk to him." I said.

She nodded and opened the door wider for me to come in as she called Mel.

"Aye Aug what's up?" Mel asked as he hugged me.

I shrugged and walked into the living room, I plopped down on one of the couches and sighed.

"I'll leave you two alone and get Amailya ready for bed." Crystal said.

"So what's gotchu' lookin' so sad like you bout to start singin' some Mary J blige?" He chucked at his own joke as he sat on the other couch.

I mugged him at his reference to my covers on YouTube I posted awhile ago.

"Rae cheated on me." I said flatly.

"What? Wit who?" He asked with a confused expression.

"Rome." I said running a hand over my face and shaking my head.

"Damn... How long the shit been going on??" He asked.

"A couple months after Rae and I started dating. I swear if I see that nigga in the streets we fightin'." I said honestly.

"Shit man, how you even find out you caught them or somethin'?" He questioned.

"Right after Jazmine told me she thought Rae told me already; we went to the house and these dumbasses were about to fuck right on the couch." I said feeling myself getting angry again.

"Jazmine knew? That makes sense why she asking me about if someone know shit should they say something, wait you beat Rome's ass right?" Mel asked looking at me with excitement on his face.

"I was gonna kill him but Jazmine stopped me," I rolled my eyes and continued, "long story short I told Jazmine ion want nothing to do wit her or her hoe ass cousin." I said simply.

"You can't blame Jaz man," Mel shook his head, "she probably felt like it wasn't her place to say shit, think about it like this to her and Rae are blood and if what you said was true Rae probably did tell her ass that she told you or some shit. All I'm saying is talk to Jazmine." He said.

I sucked my teeth and squinted my eyes at him, "Man no fuck her, she should of told me anyways she said we weren't that close as if that's a fucking excuse."

This caused him to laugh loudly, "what?" I asked annoyed by him laughing like this shit is a joke.

"Y'all weren't bruh. You never gave her the time of the day, yeah you said shit to her when you wanted to and you weren't rude but y'all weren't friends. Getcha' head out yo ass and man up, you shouldn't have yelled at Jazmine that's ma' lil homie and you should be thanking cause yo ass could be in jail for murder." He said wisely.

I knew he was right but I wasn't trying to hear all that bullshit, "so what you saying is I should apologize because I ain't." I said stubbornly.

"I swea' you just like mamma man, yes you should apologize she ain't do nothing wrong you just mad. You can't be mad at everybody tho you feel me? She ain't got shit to do with ya fucked up best friend and hoe ass girlfriend." He said as he leaned back into the couch.

I grumbled under my breath incoherently and shrugged, "I guess you right." I muttered.

"Damn right I am, because I'm daddy." He said cheesing all hard.

I couldn't help but to laugh, "Nigga shut yo ass up." I said chucking a pillow at his head. "I know one thing tho I ain't gettin' in anymore relationships anymore, I'm just fucking and chucking these bitches." I said smirking.

"Yeah that's what I'm sayin'-"

"What are you saying?" Crystal said already at the bottom of the stairs.

"I was just, uh sayin' how I'm only fuckin with you because I love you so much, yeah that's what I was sayin'." Mel said smiling at her.

"Keep fuckin' playin' you gon' be sleeping on the couch." She said giving him a look.

I laughed at the two as I made a whip noise, "damn bruh, it's like that?"

"Shut yo ass up." Mel said glaring at me.

After talking for a little bit longer I decided to crash at crystal's house since I really had no place to go now.

My current living situation wasn't the best since my momma kicked me out of the house she lived in, in Houston right after my best friend got shot we started having problems and I ended up coming back to New Orleans. I would stay at friends and families houses for a couple nights. I usually stayed at Rae's house and leave before her mom would wake up, but now we ain't together I got nowhere to go.

I make money selling drugs but not enough to cover rent or buy a house I wasn't that damn high in status but shit it was something.

I sighed as I tried to find a comfortable position on the couch and stared at the ceiling. My thoughts were all over the place but the main one that stuck out was apologizing to Jazmine.

I could remember her face right before I left she looked so hurt. It made me feel a little bad I snapped on her like that, but at the time I was so angry I could care less.

I decided I'd wait a couple days then go and talk to her to see what's up.

Let me start this out with I'm not reporting you guys' comments Wattpad is so if you want to curse misspell it or something. Second this update is about a week late because life gets stressful bruh, and lastly thanks for all the wonderful comments and feedback I really do appreciate it. I know Wattpad also erased 'Call Me Guilty.' Or some people are having trouble viewing it I'm sorry I'm trying to fix it. I'm also sorry about any spelling or grammatical errors in my writing I go back and fix those all the time. Thank you guys again so much.

This chapter was in August's POV like you guys wanted and the next chapter will be back in Jazmine's.

What did you guys think?

August should apologize or no?
