Ashanti pov

" Deddy why are we here? " I asked looking around this fancy restaurant.

" You go see " He smiled " Um ok " I said before looking around.

That's most definitely a new habit since I been with Sincere, lol.

" Sorry I'm late, oh hey honey your so beautiful " A random lady said walking up to our table.

I looked at her before looking at my father, she must got the wrong table.

" Ashanti " My father mumbled " Um who are you ? " I asked , I wasn't trying to come off rude I just don't know who the lady is.

" I'm Teshia " She smiled sitting down across from me.

I nodded " Soooo why are you here? Who are you to my father " I asked and she gave my dad that " really " look before speaking but he beat her to it.

" Ashanti Teshia is my Girlfriend " He said making me damn near choke on air.

Come on deddy I thought we was better than this? You got me sitting at this damn table and ain the mention this lady to me not once into now. You could've been told me you found a girlfriend.

" Oh um ok " I said not really knowing what to say " Your so pretty " She said making me smile.

" Thanks, you are too " I said finally embracing her , she looked so familiar.

" I think wait didn't I used to have play dates with your daughter? " I asked and she nodded smiling.

The devil is a mfkan lie

" Wait wasn't you and my mother friends? " I asked looking confused pointing my finger , she nodded and my eyes damn near popped out.

So when she die you talk to her man? Oh wow

" Yes Shanti me and your mother was very close friends I miss her sweet heart dearly " She said touching her chest I nodded before looking at my father, he couldn't even look at me wow.

" What would you guys like ?" The chef asked " Shanti you know whatchu want?" Keo asked " I'm okay I'm not really hungry " I said.

" You sure? " He asked and I nodded.

" Actually I had something planned today so sorry to leave early but I gotta go " I stood up smiling making the yikes face.

" It's ok- " The lady started saying but I already started walking out.

My father so bogus

I quickly got into my car driving off, I didn't bother putting on music I just drove and thought.

I started thinking crazy things like what if my father and this lady set my mother up so they could live happily.

I shook my head trying to get the thoughts out but I couldn't.

20 minutes later

I walked into Sincere house walking straight upstairs " Bae " I heard as I walked upstairs then I heard foot steps behind me.

" Bae you str8? " Sincere raised his eyebrow with his hands on my shoulder looking into my face.

I stared at him wondering if I should tell him what I thought but I'm to afraid he'll call me crazy " Shanti " He snapped his finger.

" Yeah yeah I'm ok " I said turning around walking into the bathroom.

" You sure? " He asked walking behind me " SINCERE JUST LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE " I yelled crying before sitting on the floor rocking back and forth.
