Chapter Nineteen

Chink

My punishment for getting locked up wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I just knew that Lah was going to go in and give me the you’re a mother speech, but all he really stressed was that we could have really hurt her, and the consequences would have been a lot worse. Jasmine decided not to cooperate with the D.A. for whatever reason. I just hoped that she was going to fall back and leave us the fuck alone.

Tasha hadn’t allowed Rellz back home, and I don’t think that she is going to take him back. She said that she was really hurting because this wasn’t the first time that he had cheated on her, so after taking him back so many times, with him promising never to cheat again, he went and cheated on her with her best friend. He comes and gets the kids on Saturday, keeps them for the entire day, and then brings them back when it’s time for him to go to work at the club. Lah told me that Rellz was staying at a hotel, so I let Tasha know that I didn’t think that he was still seeing the bitch.

Polo and I have been checking up on her because she has really been in a funk. I tried to give her the same advice that she gave me, but she wasn’t trying to hear me. She said that it was different because Lah had fallen victim one time, but Rellz has fallen victim too many times. She said that she was fed up with taking him back only for him to fuck her over again and again. I understood how she felt, so I just left it alone and decided to just continue to be a friend.

I went upstairs to get LJ ready to take his bath so that he could be put to bed. I just wanted to get him down, take a shower, and get ready for ratchet television. When I came out of the bathroom, Lah was sitting on the bed, waiting on me. I sighed loudly because I didn’t want to miss my show. Even though I was recording it, I didn’t get the same feeling when I watched it later.

“Hey, babe. Can we talk?” he asked me.

“What is it, Lah?” I asked, not hiding that him being in my space irritated me.

“I want to talk about us,” he said, and I knew that I wasn’t going to have a choice but to watch the recording.

“What about us, Lah?”

“I know that I told you that I was sorry, but I don’t think that you understand how sorry,” he began.

“And why don’t you think that I understand how sorry you are?”

“Well, you gave me another chance, but I just feel like we haven’t moved forward, and I’m not talking about sex. Any affection or conversation that you do give me just seems strained,” he continued.

“Well, what do you expect from me? This shit isn’t going to be fixed overnight; I’m still hurting.
