The Throne

Chapter 3

Jasmine POV

"You wanted to see me?" I asked as I walked in to my managers office.

I am scared as hell because I have seen girls come out of his office after hours but never come back and lord knows I need this job.

"Take a seat Jasmine." he said, gesturing to the seat in front of his desk. I slowly sat and looked at him. "You look terrified." He chuckled. "You're not in trouble or nothing. I had my eye on you these past couple of days and I have noticed you are one of my best workers and you work hard. I'm adding you to the list to be switch." he said.

"WHAT!" I yelled jumping up out of my seat. "If I'm your best worker then you should want me to stay."

"I'm sorry but I have an agreement with your new boss. Plus, you will be getting paid twice as much as you do here. But there is honestly nothing I can do. I have already emailed the list to him." he said. I sighed loudly and ran my hand through my hair.

"When is my last day." I mumbled.

I'm not up for going away but if I'm getting paid more, I'm going to do it for Loriana and only her.

"Actually, tonight was. You should go clear out your locker." He said, basically dismissing me. I sighed and left his office.

I feel bad because I have to take Loriana out of her comfort zone and move her to a random ass place. I feel bad for Randy. Damn...I don't even know how I am going to tell him about this. I know he is going to be pissed off and hurt.

....................

"Hey. Can I come in?" I asked once Randy opened the door. He nodded and opened it wider for me.

I walked in to his living room and Loriana was knocked out and there was empty candy bags on the floor and bags of different types of chips.

"Boy, you feeding my child all of this garbage." I chuckled, nervously.

"She asked for it and I can say no to them dough eyes. She was jumping off the fucking walls. I had to put Frozen on so she can take that ass to sleep." He laughed. He stopped once he noticed my face which most likely had a frown. "What's wrong with you?" He asked, lifting my head with his pointer finger.

"I'm moving Randy." I said as quick as possible.

"Alright. Why are you sad about that? I will be glad to help." He said, rubbing my arms.

"No Randy. I'm MOVING. Like away." I said. His face dropped and he removed his hands from my arms.

"What? Why? What about Loriana?" He asked all at one time.

"It's my job. I am obviously going to take her with me." I said, looking at Loriana sleep peacefully.

"Fuck that job." he snapped. "I have told you before to quit that bullshit ass job. Now you are going to leave because of it."

"Well SORRY! I need a job to get money to take care of my child and keep a roof over our heads!"

"She is my daughter too! I told you before that I got y'all! Quit the damn job." he raised his voice.

"I'm leaving on Monday if you even want to know. I guess I will call you later." I said, picking up Loriana.

"Yah. I will call you." he said, walking me to the door. He pulled me in to a side hug and then closed the door.

Honestly, moving back to Chicago is the worst thing that could possibly happen to me. Personally, I'm not ready and I know that if I move back, I'm going to eventually run in to someone I know. I'm not prepared for that but I know that I have to prepare myself.

-Next Morning-

"Yes! Oh my gosh, we are totally living together!" Monique yelled through the phone.

"Of course girl. Honestly, moving in with you is the only thing I'm looking forward to. I can't believe we have to move in 3 days. Where the hell are we going to find an apartment big enough for 3 people?" That's what is stressing me. I want to make sure that my baby is comfortable.

"Girl, I already got us a condo. My cousins, girlfriend sister is a realtor and she hooked me up."

"Yes boo. Thank Jesus. Come over later to help me pack." I said. She said alright then hung up.

I have been thinking about Mario lately. Like really bad. I miss him so much and it's hurts me that I hurt him. Summer has told be about how he doesn't do relationships anymore and he buries himself in his work. I feel bad because he was never like that when we were together. If I ever get the chance to make him happy again, I sure as hell will but I'm terrified that he just hates me. I don't even know where he stays anymore. Even if I knew, I don't have balls to go and visit him.

Aniah POV

"Yo, get the fuck away from me." I said, mushing Tyrese's head. He is really going to come to my house and try to talk.

"Chill with all of that Aniah. I seriously want to talk to you about us." he said. Reaching for my hand but I quickly snatched away.

"What us? Boy, there is no us. Us ended once you said you got hoes that you can call up. So where they at? What, do you miss having a loyal ass bitch by your side?"

"I miss you Aniah. Forget all of that bullshit I was talking. You know hoe I feel about you." he said, going me his sad face.

"Nigga no." I said, scrunching up my face.

"Come on." he groaned.

"No Ty. I don't know how you feel about me. You snap at me all the fucking time because I catch you in the act of cheating on me. I don't want to be in a relationship where it's 50% you and 100% me. You have put through to damn much and you don't deserve me. I know that." I said shrugging. I opened my front door for him to leave.

"Are you fucking serious right now?" He asked, looking at me.

"Yes nigga! Do I need to get a fucking flashlight and direct you to your car? Leave my fucking house." I said. He sucked his teeth as he walked out of my house.

I'm not going to be stupid like before. I know how it's gonna go. I'm gonna take him back and he is going to just go back to fucking the next bitch. I'm sick and tired of it.
