Trapgirl: Thugs Know Love

Chapter 17: Trust and Honesty

Daya POV

"If this world were mine, I would place at your feet!" Tes sang at the top of his lungs. It was Saturday night, and we were in his room watching The Wood. It was on the part where Mike and Alicia were about to get freaky for the first time.

I came in right behind him, "All that I own, you've been so good to me!"

It has been a little over a month since Tes fucked over me. He had sex with his "sister" Nessa and I forgave him. I didn't want to at first, but I believe in second chances. There was no excuse for him doing what he did, but somehow, he convinced me that he would be a better boyfriend than ever. Like J Cole said, "Fool me one time, shame on you, fool me twice can't put the blame on you. Fool me three times fuck the peace sign load the chopper let it rain on you." I might not have choppers, but I have something else in store if he ever tried this again.

After the night he broke down to me in the car, we sat there and held each other in our arms. He was crying, I was crying, and we were both vulnerable. To say that we are both naturally strong people, we were both in weak states. We stayed there until the sun came up just holding each other. To say he did something so foul to me hours before, that was probably the safest I have ever felt. I knew that he was for me, regardless of the mistake he made prior.

"Bruh you can't sing. You always messing up my performances with them off pitch ass notes." he told me with his serious face on.

"Shut up," I said hitting him on the shoulder playfully. "You really think I care about you and your fake ass singing career? I think not. Boy bye," I said. I got up to walk to the wall to get my phone out of the charger.

"Don't be mad when I perform at the Grammy's and don't invite you! You gonna be outside selling fish plates like Keyshia Cole."

"No!! You are not going to insult my girl Keyshia like that. That's bae." I said.

"I though I was bae?"

"You are. That's just bae with the voice." I said.

"MmmHmm," he said. I walked over to the bed and jumped on it. Tes rested his head on my back. "Why you gotta go to work? I just wanna chill with you."

"I gotta go to work cause I am strictly about my paper." I told him. "We can't be a busted couple. If you getting money, I'm getting money."

Since me and Tes been together, we never really talked about what he does. I know it's not legal. Everybody knows that. But everyday, I was falling deeper for him and I am worried about his safety. I don't want ANYTHING to ever happen to him.

"I told you I got you." he told me.

"And I told you that I don't want, dont need, or am not interested in your money. I get mines. Yea, I might be working at that stupid ass yogurt spot, but that yogurt spot keep gas in my car and me on fleek. It might not be all that, but its enough for a high school student."

"I hear ya, but let me take care of that. I want to do that for you bae."

"No Tes. Speaking of, you need to stop doing what you doing."

"What you mean?" he asked.

I got up to walk to my bag. I took off the shirt that I had on and slipped on my work uniform shirt that was in my bag.

"You know what I mean Tes. Don't try and play stupid with me. You, Q and Hopper need to chill out with all that. Im not trynna wish it on yall, but its only a matter of time before something happen," I said knocking on the wood on his night table.

"We gonna be cool."

"What are your plans when you graduate? You have a little under four months Tes. You cant be doing this forever." It was now the middle of January.
