CRYSTAL CLEAR

Chapter 7

So I guess I should pick up where Lee left off. But first let me explain things from my side. I was in love with Lee. I didn’t think he could or would do any wrong. I would have done anything he asked me to. However, when that girl showed up I recognized her right away. She was the groupie from the club the night Lee asked me to come home with him.

I knew he knew her. I knew everyone knew her. I also knew her from when I used to party with my cousin KG. She has been trying to trap someone for years. I was just furious that there was a chance she had trapped Lee. I wanted to believe he was smart enough not to have gotten caught up.

Let’s be honest, look at the drama he put me through thinking I wanted to trap him. Something in my gut told me that sadly Lee was that stupid. He had let the game play him and not played the game.

My father was the most disappointed I believe. I think I saw his heart break twice, once for me and once for what he wanted for Lee. I just could not handle waiting to see if I had really lost what I wanted. I ran home to my family and the comfort I knew.

It was about eight months since I’d seen or talk to Lee. I heard he had a baby boy. Word is he is cute and has green eyes like his mother. Rachael had been living with Lee for about six months. Supposedly her roommate or whoever she was living with put her out. Lee finally stopped calling me after three months just before I decided to change my number. I changed it anyway because I didn’t want the calls to start again.

After that day I did what I do best, I threw myself into my work. I had been running my salon in Westchester and I decided to go in as a partner with Kim and Kenny. We totally gutted the place and redid everything. I also brought my second salon and Craig was in the process of finishing it. I was determined to have some part of my life work out the way I wanted.

If only Craig would just do what I wanted when I ask him to in the first place. As usual I was arguing with him about the new shop. I needed to get out of there because the grand reopening for Kenny, Kim, and now my place was in a few hours. Craig had done a great job redoing that place but I was fighting him the whole time there as well.

“Craig, I don’t see why I have to go through this just do what I ask,” I sighed.

“Crystal, if we put the booths in the way you are asking it will take up time and space. I think you can do this better.” That was Craig’s problem he was always thinking.
