My Growing Heartache

Chapter 10: Say what now?!

"Kennise, girl, where you been? I've been missing you." Was this negro on crack or something? Idgaf that he's missing me! He brought this on his damn self.

"One minute José." I said as I got off of him and walked far enough that he couldn't hear my conversation.

"Romeo, please. I'm in the middle of something. And you really didn't even think twice about missing me when you was with that girl!" I was surprised at how calm I was! I'm starting to get better at this!

"Man, ain't nobody thinkin' 'bout her! You the one on my mind." And there goes my calm mood!

"You should hear yourself! You sound sorry as hell! You know when you was up in her you wasn't thinkin' 'bout me no damn way! Why you stuntin'? I'm over your b.s. Romeo. I'm moving out and moving on."

"You gonna regret that. You gon' miss me. Don't call or text me for ANYTHING! I'll send our damn clothes, I don't wanna see yo ass at all ever again."

"Iight, cool. Bye!" I said hanging up on his ass and blocked him number. Two can definitely play that game.

I walked back over to José and gave him my sincerest apologies.

"It's okay Kenz. It's getting late anyways. And we got school in two days so I need to get home and get prepared. I'll catch you later Kenz."

"Yeah. You're right. Later José." I pecked him and walked in the house as he pulled off.

Its the morning and Grrr...I have a freakin' killer, splitting headache yo! I look at my phone slightly because i promise if i opened my eyes anymore, I'd just about die. I see a text from José asking if I'm okay because he knows that I got hammered last night and I texted him back asking him to come over with either some strong aspirin or some even stronger alcohol to cure this blasted headache.

It was 8:23 in the morning and this boy texted me at 5:09 to check up on me. I'm really crushing on him but I don't know if I can love again after this heartache.

He texted me back about 2 mins. later and told me that he's on his way with the first option.

When he arrived, he texted me and I told him about the spare key above the light that's by the door. I heard him come in but he took forever to come upstairs. He finally came up after what seemed like an eternity.

"Stronger drink mija? Really?" He said quietly because of my headache as he quietly closed the door. He smirked showing off his beautiful dimples.

"Well, it cures just as well as the aspirin! Just that I'll feel it the next day."

"That's true. But you were a mess yesterday. Good thing I was there, eh? And speaking of drinks, you should drink this. It's this mixture my mom makes to get over a hangover."

He handed me the aspirin and the concoction. I started feeling so much better as soon as I drank the drink.

"Oh my Bajesus! It worked! I feel amazing." I said as I got out if the bed.

I stand there in confusion looking at José, who is staring at me like he just saw Jesus Christ himself!

"What?" I ask him, looking down at my body to make sure I looked ok.

I was in my Victoria Secret bra and matching underwear. I'm one of those girls who's undergarments are her nightgowns, but I thought it was no big deal.

"Daayummmmmn!" He whispered, low enough that I could barely hear it,making me grin. "You..you got it goin' on!" He said, scanning my body.

"Thanks I guess...but I'm not all that." I truthfully admitted. I truly didn't feel that good about myself.
