" Why you acting like that ? " Twon popped up and asked me

I was rocking Ant to sleep while doing my homework that's literally due in a few hours , he had been gone all day. Never said anything to me and I ain say shit to him. He texted me a couple times but I didn't respond.

" What ? " I looked at him

" You being .. weird "

" Ok ? " I blinked at him then looked back at my laptop

" What's the problem bro ? "

" Ain no problem bro. "

" You do this dumb ass shit every time I gotta go somewhere "

" You wanna know why I do this ? " I laughed never looking away from my computer

" Let's hear it  "

" I'm detaching myself from you. "

" Why "

" Cus I know it's gon be some shit while you on tour and we not gon be together when you come back. "

" Nigga what ? We is engaged why would you even say some shit like that ? "

" I know how you are " I mumbled

" What the fuck is you scared of ?! " He raised his voice and Ant jumped in my arms

" Antwonnnn " I chuckled

" Wha- "

" If you raise your voice again and you see me tryna put this boy to sleep and do homework at the same time that's your ass. "

" I ain even know you was doing allat. "

" You wouldn't know because you never here but whatever. "

" That's where you wanna take the conversation ? " He laughed

" Aw boy go play " I rolled my eyes

" I'm boutta get in the bed. " He came and sat on the bed

" Go sleep on the couch since you wanna come in here starting shit. "

" I'm sorry bae , I ain know you was doing homework and shit. "

" Typing a paper with writer's block at that "

" You shoulda said sumn , I woulda took Ant wit me. "

" Get out my face please. "

" Mo it's 11:00 "

" I am aware " I sighed

" What it gotta be about ? " 

" I just gotta.. type a paper. I'm almost done. "

" About what tho Monica ? "

" I don't know ! It's supposed to be about our life and our plans after graduation. "

" And what's so hard about that ? " He asked me and I looked at him with a blank face

" It's aight , you just frustrated right na and that's my fault. Go put Ant in the bed and we gon work on it. "

" You work on it or it ain gon get done, I'm going to sleep. " I got up to go lay Ant down before coming back to go to the bathroom

" Nigga you just want me to do YOUR work ? "

" You gon do it or that's yo ass " I stood in the doorway and told him
