"I don't care." I covered my head with the duvet while turning my back to Kaden. He kept informing me that Leonard has been calling. I really wasn't in the mood to deal with anyone. Yes for an entire month. I've been cooped away for an entire month. I also found out Ezio denied my resignation letter.

Is he even allowed to do that? I don't think I could face him after that finger stunt I pulled in his office. That's so embarrassing. But if he really thinks I'm going to kiss his ass then he has got the wrong person. There's no turning back.

In the heat of the moment, as soon I returned home, I burn everything that had him on it. I even threw my phone in the fire. Anger has no face so don't blame me for my actions. Kaden got me a new phone and SIM card so I basically hopped off the map for now. I'm never leaving this house ever again.

"Wake up Tina." Kentrell pulled the duvet off my body while exposing me to the cold. Leave the pulling to this guy.

"Do you not speak english?" I looked back at him. "Leave me the hell alone." I grabbed the duvet and covered up once more. "Now piss off." Next thing I know I was flat on the floor.

Keith. Now that I think about it...the floor is quite comfy. I pulled the duvet off the bed and covered myself. Unbothered. I closed my eyes and was about to fall asleep when I felt water pouring on my face. My eyes shot open and I flew up. They were all laughing. Oh so this is funny? So if I got a gun and loaded it then accidentally shot them...would it be murder? The world wouldn't really miss anything...would it?"

"What?!" I yelled out in frustration as I sat up and looked at all my brothers including Juan. He seemed to be focusing on my body instead of everything that was going on right now.

"We're going to the mall." Khaled smiled at me.

"Ok? So?" What's that gotta do with me?" I pulled the wet duvet to the laundry room and placed it in the wash before going back upstairs and into Kaden's room. I pulled his duvet off and covered myself with everyone still behind me.

"Why are you guys still here?" I stuffed my head into the pillow and took a deep breath. For some unknown reason I felt like breaking down and crying my eyes out. Something washed over me.

"We're taking you to the mall."

"Take me to a funeral home instead." I sighed sitting up and glared at them all. Kaden was busy on his phone probably texting his secretary.

"Ok whatever."

🤍

"You hungry?" Kaden asked.

"No."

"Tired?"

"No."

"Then what do you want?"

"To go home."

"You just got here still I have to go." He kissed my forehead before leaving. That leaves me with Keith since Khaled, Juan and Kentrell went their separate ways. We planned to meet at the food court in an hour.

I sighed more frustrated than before. Since it's a Saturday the mall's going to be a little more clustered. I wore a pink hoodie with black biker shorts and my pink fur slides. I pulled the hood over my head and stuck my hands in the pocket area.

"Lil K?" I look up to see Clara with her son AJ in her arms

"Hello." I said before stepping pass her and heading into forever 21 with Keith behind me.
