HEAL-KOBE MORRIS

ARIEA POV

"The hell does she want" I whispered because he had the phone in his hand. He shrugged and threw his phone my way

"H-hey ma" I said looking at Kobe who was caressing my hand.

"Hey baby; I want you and kayson to come home, please" she said sniffling

"Is Derrick still there" I asked only receiving a sigh on the other end

"Baby he promised not to hit you and Kay again" she whimpered as a tear rolled down my face

"He shouldn't have did that shit to begin with" i gritted raising my voice

"Don't cuss at me Ariea" she spoke

"DONT CUSS AT YOU, IF YOUR BITCH ASS BOYFRIEND DIDNT SLAP ME I WOULDNT BE CUSSING AT YOU" I screamed causing my voice to gain a raspiness

"Sweeti- Ariea can you and Kay please come back?" She asked as her voice cracked

I hung up the phone and tossed it to Kay who was now sitting on the edge of my bed along with me and Kobe

"She wants us to come back, after he hit you hella times, and slapped me, she wants us to come back with him in the house" I said leaning on Kay's shoulder as Kobe still held my hand

I looked on each side of me to see them both with a look on sadness on their faces; I huffed and mumbled "group hug" before pulling them both into my chest

"Look at them being all sentimental" Gaitlin mumbled running in jumping on all three of us

"Nigga move" Kay said chuckling

"Oh shit; I got practice in 20 minutes" I said standing up

"I'll drive you" Kobe said trailing behind as we left the two boys in my room

"Kobe?" I asked as he focused on the road; god he looked fine

"Hm?" He hummed glancing over quickly

"Bronny's been blowing me up about Mike, should I go over there?" I ask low

"Do what ya gut says, don't go by what i say" he said nonchalantly, I could tell he got mad by just his name alone, but Mikeys my friend before anything, and by what bronnys saying; he needs me right now

"So you gone skip practice for his porcupine ass" he asked raising an eyebrow

I sighed before giving a simple 'yea' before typing the address into the gps

"Bye Kobe" i said softly receiving no answer, just an aggravated huff before he rolled up the window driving off

I knocked on the door to see him

He looked awful

Hair full of knots

Droll on each corner of his chapped lips

And, the only thing he wore were his favorite pair of ethikas that could barely fit

"Uhm...hey ba-, Ari" he said fluffing his hair trying to make himself look decent
