Love Kills

Strangers?

POV: Cardi b 
Location: California
Date: December 10, 2019.
Time: 8:44pm

We were in the car. No conversation. I wasn't bothered by it tho, I was too busy worrying about how much trouble I could get into if he decided to take action. I really didn't care, but I just hoped nothing went down before the 16th cause I have to go back to NY to handle some-

"Thank you" she said and I didn't even turn my head to look at her. Eyes on the road.

"Welcome" I simply said

"Sorry I wasn't there to help" I said giving in

"It was my fault I should have had-" she was saying

"Nows not the time Nic" I said knowing either one of two things would happen, I'd cry.. or I'd get us both into a car accident.

"It's never the right time" she said crossing her arms staring out her window

"You tryna get us killed?" I asked

"Why would we-" she said

"Cause if you piss me off, we both going" I said as it got quiet.

"Can you give me a ride after I get all my stuff" she asked me

"Tomorrow" I simply said

"Tomorrow?" She asked confused

"We're gonna get there at 9:30, and it takes almost an hour to get to your place then I have to drive back.." I said knowing I just wanted her to stay over

"Oh, alright" she said quietly

Half an hour of silence later

"Wake up" I shook her

She had fallen asleep, I didn't blame her. There was no conversation what so ever, shit I almost fell asleep while driving, it was a long ass day.

"Huh?" She said waking up

"We're here" I said

She looked hella confused and went back to sleep, I rolled my eyes and got out the car. I walked around to the other side and opened the door. Before picking her up I huffed, just like a little kid when they pretend to be asleep so they could get carried inside the house.

I picked her up and tried my best not to drop her.

After some stairs and trying to unlock the door we were inside and she woke up.

"Oh so you randomly decide to wake up after I carried you up all those stairs?" I said with a small chuckle

"I felt comfortable in your arms I didn't wanna ruin it" she said which made me a little sad because I knew things wouldn't be the same because of earlier today.

"You can sleep in the room I'll take the couch" I said heading to the room to get my blankets

"Oh my fucking god Cardi we aren't strangers" she said as u was heading to the room

"We aren't lovers either" I told her grabbing a blanket

"But we're still fri-" she said but I let out a laugh

"What's so funny?" She asked me

"Nothing" I said placing the blanket on the couch

"So since we're not on the road anymore is now a good time?" She asked me

"Good time for what?" I said acting stupid but didn't get the response I thought I would

She grabbed my face and went in for it. I wanted it but I also wanted to pull away, I was stuck and didn't know what to do. I felt her hand reaching down for my-

"No" I said

"I know you want-" she started saying

"Onika we both slept with different men today and your thought of making up is sex?" I said

"That wasn't what I was trying to do" she said

"What?" I asked confused

"I just wanna have fun, with you, and only you, we can talk after" she said

"No, we can't just put all this shit aside for sex, I'm gonna go shower" I said leaving her presence

I hopped in the shower and let it all rip out. I couldn't hold it in anymore. What seemed like a love story turned into the worst plot twist ever. A gangsta bitch falling for a high end lawyer the moment they met at the airport then living with her just for it all to end because she decided to have sex with her boss. And your idea of revenge was to fuck the dude she was messing with before? I genuinely saw something.. it wasn't a bullshit relationship this was different.. I felt comfortable with her, I felt like she was all I needed. Stop being sad you can get anyone. Does she even feel bad? When she leaves tomorrow will she ever call you again. Will she even leave tomorrow? No. You won't let that happen. But I have to.. she needs to learn you won't always forgive.

*ding*

"Fuck my hands are wet I can't get my phone, That's ok I'll just hurry up" I said to myself

I turned off the steaming water and put my robe on. I grabbed my phone.

Unknown

Unknown: hey I heard you was coming in a couple days, you should stop by 😊

Me: who's this ?

Unknown: you move to LA and forget the people you knew or what?

Me: that's not helping

Unknown: Doja

Me: oh shit we haven't talked in a long time.

I put my phone down and changed and got ready for bed. Once I was finished I grabbed my phone and headed out the door.

"Yooo why'd you move my shit" I said seeing the blanket and pillows I'd set up in the living room now on the bed.

"Cause we're staying here together" she said

"But I told you-" I began saying

"We're ex lovers not strangers" she said and I just stayed quiet and walked to my side of the bed and took a seat as she followed

Doja: you just gonna leave me hanging?

Me: my bad I was getting out the shower

Doja: send a pic tho

Me: you asked me too late

[image]

Me: im all dressed already

Doja: it's aight, they're way better in person anyways

Me: I'll let you know where I'll be staying when I go, I got some business to do when I go too

Doja: for sure, can't wait 😉

"Who's doja?" She said making me just not realizing she was behind me...
