"Yo, you better chill the fuck out. What the fuck is you even doin' hea? Ain't yo ass suppose to be way in Florida for school?" Benji questioned Maleah. For some reason it infuriated him to see her here in his living room, especially with a suitcase with her.

"It's called spring-break." She frowned at him. BG didn't seem too happy to her and that alone hurt her feelings. Maleah had her sister drop her off here for him as a surprise that she could spend some time at his place with him, but he didn't share that energy.

"Ion give a fuck what it's called. It's cancelled." He said as he shook his head. "You knew better than to just show up unannounced Maleah. You know me." He expressed to her angrily. Benji was right she had already knew he'd be angry with her but she figured he would just get over it and be happy to see her.

"BG, don't be like tha-, who the fuck is this bitch?" Maleah shouted as she watched as Layton approach from down the hallway. Maleah was upset now that Layton had come out, bursting the hopes and dream of what she'd planned. Benji took a deep sigh as he pinched the bridge of his nose. He hadn't met not a single woman that knew how to listen. He had told Layton to stay in the room, but clearly she didn't.

"Aye, watch ya mouth." He finally said, letting her know not to refer to Layton as a bitch. That too had Maleah feeling some type of way. In her eyes, he'd had a bitch in his place and was even defending the bitch too? Oh, she was burning with anger now.

Layton stood there next to Benji with her arms over her chest. She hadn't said a word yet to anyone, but she did have a lot of them to say to both of them. It wasn't always fun being in between two women as they fought. Shit got real and he didn't know what to do to prevent the two of them from going at it.

"No, you watch it! Who is she BG? I leave for only a few months and come back home to this? You got this bitch in here playing house? Is that why I don't ever get not even a call or text back?" Maleah fired question after question at him, and we all knew that was what he hated the most. Her anger was soaring, so she didn't care about how anybody else felt.

"Maleah, calm yo ass down. How the fuck you even get way over hea?" He asked her in confusion.

"My sister dropped me off. I was coming to surprise you, but I guess I'm the one getting the surprise. It's fucked up BG, you know it too. You got this hoe all in your house while I'm away for school?" She say.

Layton frowned deeply before speaking. "Listen, I don't know you, and quite frankly you really don't know me. So please keep those hoes and bitches out of your vocabulary when referring to me, because I ain't the one nor the two sweetheart." She retorted.

"Bitch, fuck you! You're just another hoe he'll fuck and never call again. I'll forever be number one. So please get that through your head. It always has and always will be Maleah over any of you hoes. Please mark my words sweetheart, I'm always one up."

"Bitch, bye. Number one? You're not even number two. Please dismiss yourself before I do it for you. I let you disrespect me long enough. Don't come here acting like you're running shit, trying to lil' girl me. I promise, you got the right one today mamas." Lay said, allowing the street side of her to surface. Now usually she was calm, cool, and collected Lay, but it was girls like Maleah that made the good ones, bad.
