CHAPTER TWELVE

AMARIE

“Girl, ain't no way that man did that to your car. What are you about to do? You gon’ spend too much catching Ubers, and you know you don't like to wait on nobody. You want to use my old car?” Nakari asked as she drove me to a hotel.

I knew I could have stayed at her house, but I didn't want to. The talks I knew she’d want to have was something I was trying to avoid. Shit, I was kicking myself for calling her to pick me up in the first place.

“I'm gon’ figure it out. I’ll probably get a little cheap car for now, just to get by. I have work tonight, so I’ll just Uber there and back. Can we not talk about this right now?” I said, leaning the chair all the way back.

Twenty minutes later, I was checked into my hotel and lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling. I kept thinking about the past—my mom, my dad, my auntie, and how well of a job she did raising me the best she could. I thought about DeJuan and me and how our marriage was a complete disaster, a waste of time. The worst part of all was it failed. Granted, we were young, but that didn't mean it had to end up like it had. I hadn't ever cheated on him, and to my knowledge, he only had one little hiccup, and that was in the very beginning.

We had just outgrown the relationship. I still had love for him, but not enough to be with him. Not enough to try to work out our differences. Not enough for all the hurtful things we said to each other, and definitely not enough to fix the failed expectations.

My mind drifted to Nakari and how on the drive to the hotel, she told me to use Kash for everything I could to ensure that I placed myself in the right position. While she was right about me deserving everything I gained from the association, I just couldn't help looking at it as a handout. In her eyes, he was just keeping good on his word. I wasn't using him, but boy did it sure feel like it.

I grabbed one of the pillows and pulled it closer to my body. Rolling onto my side, I tucked it between my legs. I closed my eyes and remembered the feeling of being wrapped in Kash’s arms that night. I figured if I kept them closed long enough, I could transport myself right back to that night and relive it. I just wanted that feeling of security he gave me, the feeling of it being okay to be vulnerable. To feel like I had a man holding me who wanted me there and felt the same weird feelings I had.

I knew myself enough to know that I was starting to crave the butterflies I felt in the pit of my stomach when I was around Kash or talked to him.
