Damage

Gut feeling

Milan

Milan's eyes fluttered open as he stretched in bed the sunlight from the windows woke him out of his sleep he sat up looking next to him, Toyomi was knocked out with her head under the pillows. He sat up on the side of the bed rubbing his hands over his waves before getting up to shower.

When he came out the bathroom Toyomi was still sleeping, he closed her curtains so the sunlight wouldn't wake her before walking out to the living room to cut the tv on to watch the news he liked to be caught up on current events in the world. He was about to roll up on the coffee table when something caught his eye

He sat up moving her laptop off of some papers she had on the table, he picked the papers up and started reading them. Milan was impressed it was her resume, he had no idea Toyomi went to law school and graduated with honors. It appeared to him that she was looking at a job pertaining to her degree he smirked to himself.

He liked Toyomi she seemed like the complete package not to mention she was a go getta, he loved the fact that she didn't rely on any nigga to provide for her. The more he learned about her the more intrigued he became, it was something about her but he didn't wanna admit just how much he was really feeling her

"Babe, I'm sorry I slept in so late you hungry?" Toyomi yelled down the hallway as she walked toward him, he heard her foot steps coming down the hallway and he hurried up putting her papers back the way he found them "Nah I'm good Ma, and that's what good dick do to you" he said to her smirking as he pulled her on his lap for a kiss

She threw her head back laughing loudly "You would know, Mr. Out Cold After One Round" he looked at her and burst into laughter "Damn you gon' do me like that" he stopped laughing long enough to say "Didn't I give you 2more rounds after my nap" he rubbed her thigh "Ion know refresh my memory" she kissed his lips dropping her robe to the floor....

Mia

Mia was sitting in her office at the hospital she worked at Dr Harrison was currently in her office telling her which patients he would be seeing today and what patients he was giving her to see today "Mia did you hear me" he questioned because Mia looked dazed, she cleared her throat "Yes Dr Harrison, I'm sorry I'm a little under the weather today" she lied putting a fake smile on her face

She had been up crying all night until she fell asleep in bed with Ryder only getting 2hours of sleep before her alarm went off for work. When Rashadd came stumbling in the house around 3am passing out on the bed she went through his pockets and phone.

She hated that he turned her into a insecure wife, Mia was never one to violate someone's privacy but Rashadd was pushing her. She checked their joint account and noticed large amounts of money being withdrawn so she had to know what was up. She busted her butt working hard to provide for them and she just fronted all the money to help him open up his own Barbershop

"Are you sure you don't want to take the rest of the day Mia" Dr Harrison stood there holding the patient list "Nope I'll be just fine, plus I told Mrs. Laywood I would see her first thing today" she said standing up to grab the list "Okay great take an hour to get yourself together before seeing the patients" Dr. Harrison smiled walking out of her office closing the door behind him

Mia drifted to her thoughts again about last night, when Rashadd came stumbling in the room she played possum until she was sure he was in his drunken slumber. She slipped out of bed picked his pants off the floor and went through them nothing was in his left pocket, but the right one had his phone, car keys, and a baggy filled with coke fell out.

She held her hand over her mouth in shock and disbelief, she stood up grabbing his phone to hide in the closet to go through it. Mia's heart was in shambles there was somebody else he's been spending all his time with, it started to make more sense to her why he'd been distant in their marriage lately

He stirred in his sleep making Mia get up off the closet floor, she rushed out putting everything the way she found it before going to sleep with Ryder

"Got you a coffee Mia" Ashley another Nurse Practitioner said making her snap out of her thoughts "Thanks I'm ready now" Mia smiled standing up walking out the door

Hours later...

After a hard day at work Mia was exhausted she had just picked up Ryder because Rashadd had forgotten once again. She put the key in her door letting her and Ryder in so she could start dinner

"Ry go wash your hands and start your homework, I'm gonna start dinner okay?" She looked at him smiling he shook his head yes "Okay mom" he said walking towards his bathroom Mia put the groceries down on the counter walked to the sink to wash her hands to prep the spaghetti

She heard Ryder yell "MOM" she dried her hands before walking to his voice in the family room "Mom what's that" he point to a mirror with lines of coke on it "Ryder go to your room baby I'll be there in a minute" she spoke softly rubbing his back "you okay Mommy you look sad" he rubbed her cheek "I'm just fine now gooo get started I'm coming" she kissed his hand

Once he left the room her hands were shaking taking the drugs off the table to dump them, she couldn't understand since when did her husband start doing drugs for the 8years they were together he hated that she even smoked weed some times so this was a shock to her

Mia helped Ryder do his homework they ate dinner together before she put him to bed. She stayed up pacing the floor until Rashadd got home at 1am he walked in the room

"You still up? Can I get my dick sucked" he looked at her slurring his words she looked at him in anger and disgust "Are you fucking kidding me Rashadd, you left drugs for our son to possibly play in and get hurt" she slightly raised her voice not wanting to wake Ryder down the hall "Do you even care about your family, do you care about anything" she stood there with her hands on her hip

He had a look of guilt on his face but proceeded to say "Bitch you doin' drugs around my son" he tried to flip it on her "Are you kidding me right now Rashadd you picked a fine time in life to become a crackhead" she yelled in his face and felt a sting to her cheek making her fall to the floor "get the fuck out my face and clean yaself up don't worry about what I got goin' on" he stumbled on the bed tears ran down her face as she held onto her cheek. By the time she stood up to go sleep with Ryder Rashadd was already in his drunk coked up slumber....
