As She Sat [August Alsina]

Chp. 6

Yasmin walked out the the door of her building. "Thanks for coming. I know it is getting super late."

"You good luv. I wun gon' leave you outcha like that." He opened the door for her then jogged to his side.

"Crazy. I left my whole set of keys on the counter. You can just take me to the hotel on Airways Boulevard."

"Nah. You coming with me."

"August, no. I cannot impose on you and your girl like that. I am good with the hotel." She challenged.

"Yeah.. I heard ya." August was just talking because he ain't taking her to no damn hotel.

As time passed, August passed the hotel causing Yas to say, "Where are you going? You passed the hotel."

"To my place. Cianna ain't there so yeen imposing on shit."

Yasmin just looked at this man like he has 2 heads. The position of his body was different when he said it. He sat up in his seat, leaned forward, and put his right on arm on the center console. "This is considered kidnapping. You're real hard-headed." She gave eyes rolls left and right.

"Gon head call the cops then." He said as sped up faster and stared at her.

She gripped the car door tight while tensing up. "Uhn uhn boy. Slow down and put your eyes on the road."

August chuckled as he took his foot of the gas letting the car slow down on it own. "Baybeh. Please know that eye rolling don't do nun to me." He snickered.

"Never said it did. But I'm going to roll them again to let you know that your tough demeanor doesn't phase me either." She rolled her eyes again making sure to get eye contact with him.

He shook his head. "You something fasho."

Not a lot of time went by before August pulled into his garage. As she got out of the car, he held the door to help her out. She was thankful because at least one person was a gentleman tonight.

They entered the house then August locked the garage door. Yas just followed him like a lost puppy.

"You hungry? I got some pasta in the fridge from last night." August took off his jacket.

"If you don't mind. Not too much though."

August fixed her a plate and put it in the microwave to warm up before serving it to her.

"I'm finna go shower real quick. Make yourself at home and what not. Just put yo plate in the sink when you done."

She simply nodded because food was in her mouth. Once she finished, she rinsed the residue of the plate and walked to the living room. While he was in the shower, she turn the tv on; but still sat like she was in unfamiliar territory.

August came from the back hall a short time later wearing a muscle shirt and basketball shorts with a pair of sock on.

"Yo, Com'ere." August waved his arm. "You gone sleep in here. The bathroom right there. I gotta find you a toothbrush and allat but it's some other stuff under the sink."

"Thanks. And um I need...a pad. You know.." She cut herself off hoping he would catch the drift. She had spare tampons but she can't wear those to bed.

"Aight. I think Ci got some shit like that here somewhere. I'll be back."

Yasmin closed the door and locked it. She stripped out of everything but her underwear. Then turn on the shower to let it get to her desired temperature. As she was wrapping the towel around her body the door bust open causing her to jump.
