To New York

Chapter 22 :

Amanda's POV

"There are 3.5 billion dicks in the world and yet you're obsessing over the one that belongs to a jerk !" De'arra said before opening her 'Party size' Doritos, I scoffed

"You're here to make me feel better not STUPID " I said glaring at her. After I literally ran out of the company, I drove to my apartment and called De'arra and Keisha so they can come over. Ever since they arrived De'arra was on some clown shit, and it was starting to annoy the fuck out of me.

"What?! You guys are not dating so that man has every right to do whatever the heck he wants to do and with whoever, it's none of your business. You're making a clown of yourself, You're setting yourself up for a heartbreak and I'm sorry but I will tell you that I TOLD YOU SO." she said and shrugged her shoulders, what the heck is wrong with her?

" Says the biggest clown, how many times did Ken cheat and you still went back to him? MULTIPLE TIMES! don't throw stones from a glass house BOO! " I spat with venom in my voice obviously fuming. I stood up the same time she did and Keisha jumped up from where she was sitting and stood in between us

" ENOUGH!!  What is wrong with you guys? We're supposed to comfort each other in times like these, not mock each other's situations. You guys are friends, we're friends" Keisha said with a pleading voice but me and De'arra were still glaring at each other.

"Friends? We're clearly not friends, I don't hang out with two faced bitches" De'arra said rolling her big ass eyes

"Two faced? You're the last biscuit to crack, do me a favor and leave my house." I said pointing towards the door, my hands shaking from anger

"With pleasure" she said with a tight smile before grabbing her purse and heading towards the door

"I -" Keisha begun but I cut her off, " it's okay Keisha, you can follow your friend if you want." I said squeezing her shoulder, I know De'arra expects Keisha to follow her because she is 'her' friend.

"Okay bye, sorry" she said giving me a sympathetic look before grabbing her purse and following De'arra out the door. I walked towards the door and locked it putting my back against it, what did I just do? De'arra is the only frien-family that I have here and I love her so much, I shouldn't have said what I said no matter how angry I was. My knees weakened and I slid down the door, dropping to the floor. I pulled my knees towards my chest and burst out in tears, I'm not setting myself up for a heart break, my heart is already broken. This isn't how I thought New York was supposed to turn out, I'm emotionally drained.

De'arra Taylor's POV

" I'll talk to you later Kei " I said, my voice almost cracking

"Are you sure you're okay?" Keisha said sympathetically, I ran my hands down my face and exhaled deeply.

"I'm good, I just need to rest" I said and Keisha looked at me sceptically, obviously not believing a word I was saying but moved along. I walked her towards the elevator and she got in

"I'll CALL YOU!" she shouted as the elevator doors closed, I chuckled at her. I turned around heading to my apartment, I unlocked the door when I finally arrived in front of it. I entered and closed the door behind me, dropping my keys on the table by the door.

" BAE IS THAT YOU?" I heard Ken shout from somewhere in the house, I ignored him and walked into the living room. I took of my shoes and hopped onto the couch. I heard Ken's footsteps as he walked down the stairs into the living room

"De'arra you didn't hear me call yo-woah! Are you okay Bae?" Ken came and sat next to me. He stared at me, waiting for a response  but I only nodded.

"No you're not! Your eyes are puffy and red, not to mention that you're shaking." he said before pulling me into his lap, I rested my head on his chest as he ran his fingers through my curls.

"Talk to me Babe, you know I always got time for you" he said kissing my forehead and then looking at me

"Me and Amanda had an exchange of words just now" I said before wiping the tear that fell down my face.

"I'm guessing they were harsh words, huh?!" he questioned while rubbing his hand up and down my arm

"They were bad Ken, we both said the most horrible things to each other. I know I just met her but you know how much I love her Ken, she's like the little sister I never had. It breaks my heart to fight with her, she probably wants to go home now." I said as I cried in Ken's arms, he wrapped his arms around me trying to calm me down

" I know how you BOTH love and adore each other, that same love that you guys have for each other is the same love that will bring you together. I don't care who said what but you both need to sit down and apologize to each other, okay?!" I only nodded at him before giving him a peck on the lips. Me and Ken had our fair share of Downs but they definitely outweigh our UPS , he has wronged me in the past but I see him constantly trying to be a better man. I couldn't be any happier to be his fiancée and the future Mrs Walker

"Let's get you fed and into bed" Ken said before scooping me up and heading towards the kitchen.

Amanda's POV (02:43 AM)

I pulled the pizza out of the ovan and sat it carefully on the counter, closing the oven with my foot. After tossing and turning, I finally gave up sleep and came down into the kitchen and made pizza because 1) I was hungry and 2) cooking calmed me down.

I sliced the pizza and put 3 slices on my plate, I left the pizza on the kitchen counter so it can cool off before I put it on the refrigerator. I walked into my living room and switched the TV on, I sat my plate down on my coffee table and went to fetch a bottle of Peach Margarita and a glass in the kitchen

I wasn't planning on getting drunk but I just wanted to 'ease off', what better way to do so than drink a bottle of Margarita?
