Forever And Always (HCBTO Sequel)

"Imani, we need to talk" Damian said walking inside her room. She was sitting in the middle if her bed, lights off and crying to herself.

Its been 3 days since she found Xavier and Ariana together. He's been texting and calling her, but she hadn't answered.

She couldn't.

Her dad took off his shoes and climbed into her bed, sitting in front of her. "Come on baby girl, talk to me" he said softly, rubbing her knee.

Imani sighed, shakily "I feel so dumb" she started "I thought he really liked me and would wait until I'm ready to have sex, but he's just like the others guys. Wait until they get bored with me, then go have sex with someone else"

"Maybe u should stop choosing guys like that"

"I thought I did with Xavier daddy, u saw how he treated me. Sex was never a topic for us, yet we still had fun together. I guess I was seeing something I wanted to see and not what was really there"

"U really liked him huh?"

"Yea" tears started to fall "I think I even started to love him" the room grew quiet for a dew seconds before Imani stood up from her bed and walked to her dresser.

Pulling out a matching bra and panty set, she laid them on her dresser "Mani, what u doing?"

"Its sex he wants right? I can give that to him, just like those other girls. Then he'll want to be with me and only me"

Damian stood up from the bed and stopped His daughter from walking into the bath room to change "Imani stop, don't ever lower yourself standards just for some nigga to like u" he said sternly.

Without any words left, she broke down in her dads chest while he hugged get and rubbed her back.

Seeing his daughter cry the way she is, over some boy, made him want to grab his gun and go looking for him. But that wouldn't do anything but make it worse.

Being the man Damian used to be, having sex with different woman and not caring about their feelings, and seeing the way his daughter is now, made him want to go out and apologize to any woman he hurt.

Including Sylvia's crazy ass.

"Why can't I just find somebody like u?" She mumbled after she calmed down "U treat momma like she's a queen, and I can't even find somebody to stay faithful"

"For one, your pops is an original" he said, making Imani smile. "Your mom and I have had our troubles and bumps in the road, just like any other couple. But I treat her like a Queen because I know his it feels to not have her. I've done shit that made her leave time after time, and I hated it when she wasn't mine. "

He raised his hand, and wiped the tears from his daughters face "And if Xavier is as smart as I think he is, he'll realize how it feels to be without u, and come back to treat u like the queen u are"

"Just like u did momma?"

"Just like I did your mom. But this doesn't mean if Xavier doesn't come to his senses, go out looking for someone to treat u how I treat your mom cause" he stopped.

"Your an original" she smiled.

"Good, now wipe them tears" he kissed her forehead "And let me find u crying over another nigga that don't deserve your tears. I'm just gonna have to fuck u up"

"Thanks daddy" she hugged him, and kissed his cheek "Now go, I have homework"

"Damn, so I help u with your boy problems then I get kicked out?"

"You'll never understand a woman's mood swings"

"Aye, your not a woman till I say u are"

"And when is that?"

"35 to 60 sounds good to me" he shrugged, turning to walk out. Imani laughed and closed the door behind him, feeling a lot better.
