A Day later ...

Rock

I shifted in the bed feeling a cold spot next to me.

I open my eyes to see Nia wasn't there. Also, I sat up straight feeling my guts about to spill.

" ewww man you stink"

I look from the stool seeing Dub leaning on my bathroom door eating a bag of Doritos.

" aye yo what the fuck you doing in my house"

I just know Nia didn't let them in.

" I see ya ass finally woke up" Kane said peeping his head in.

None of this was making since.

I flush the toilet standing to my feet.

" where is Nia ?" I said looking around my home.

" up ya ass" Dub said cracking a joke.

" I ain't got time for jokes, WHERE IS SHE ?" I said hitting my fist against the wall.

" she gone" Kane said

He took a seat on my couch checking his phone.

" whatcha mean she gone"

" she left bruh, she don't wanna deal with yo ass no more" Dub added.

Both of them was pissing me off.

I walked to my front door opening it.

" what you doing"

" both of y'all asses can get the hell out my house"

They didn't move.

" Yo ass don't get it"

" Kane don't do it bruh" Dub Said to him.

" Nawl his ass need to hear this"

I looked at them both trying to figure what is going.

" Look man we here to help you" Kane said standing to his feet.

" I don't need y'all help"

" nigga ...."

"you do" Dub said

" you standing here pushing any and everybody away, why you think Nia ain't here"

" I understand you lost the person that was dearest to your heart bro"

I felt my eyes getting watery. I refuse to cry in front of these niggas.

" just lets us help you man" Kane said again with a handout.

I let a frustrating breath dapping him.

He was right.



















Nia

" thank you for letting me stay here once again"

Kane and Dub thought it would be best for me to leave the house because they didn't won't me to stress even more since I am carrying a baby.

" it's fine girl, I told you it's never a problem, but what is going on with Rock"

" he found out his grandmother died, which is the only person that he really cared about, but somehow he got arrested and just went on a drinking spree last night"

" I tried to stop him but he ignore me and now I'm just worry about him, I never seen him act that way towards me"

" it scared me Marley" I said frowning up.
