Dave POV
I woke up at the feeling of someone watching me. I looked at my surroundings before I made a move. My head was pounding too damn much for me to even concentrate at the moment.

"You're up" I heard a feminine voice beside me. I quickly looked over to see Sariya, I was a little at ease, but still kinda tense because I didn't know what tf happened last night. I just looked at her. Sariya was bad news, but for some reason I kept her around. Maybe because at first she was all about the sex, but then started to catch feelings along the way and I wasn't down with that shit. It was all about my money until Nzuri came along and even though I've only known her for half a month, she's made me feel more alive then any other female I ever fucked with. Speaking of her, I gotta go apologize for the way I treated her yesterday. I shouldn't even be here with Sariya ass but I don't even know how I got here. I just got up and got dressed so I could make things right with Nzuri. As I was opening up the door to leave Sariya stopped me "Babe where ya going? I thought we could go shopping"
I looked at her ass stupidly. One thing I did know was how Sariya got her money. She was a golddigging hoe who never worked a day in her life and got all the niggas she either fucked or gave head to pay her bills or buy her shit. The most I ever brought her ass was food and not no expensive shit. It was McDonald's or Pizza, in my eyes she wasn't worth no other shit cause she didn't know her worth.
"I'm not ya babe. Look, this Lil fucking shit we got is dead. Ion want nothing to do with ya ass. I'm tryna get my life straight and I can't do that shit with a hoe."
She looked shocked and walked up to me
"East you trippin' You can't mess up what we have. Where is all this coming from? I- is it because of that Lil goody two shoes ass bitch you got at your house. "

"Watch ya mouth shawty. You wasn't nothing but a nut and I told yo ass that way before we started fucking. You not wifey material ma. You got plenty of other niggas to fw. Losing one not gone hurt you." I preceded to leave out and she ran behind me hitting me
"I hate you- I hate you! You and that Lil bitch gone get what's coming-" before she can finish I snatched her up by her neck watching the life flow out of her, the only thing that stopped me was the neighbors who were pulling into their driveway. I tossed her on the ground and pointed my finger at her "You come near me, or her. I will fucking end you."
As soon as she caught her breath she came running to the car banging on my window "East! East! Please don't do this baby! Come back please pleaseee!!" She chased down the car until I sped up. What a great fucking way to start my day. Let me get my ass home.

Nzuri POV
As I called East for the 25th time it went straight to voicemail. He didn't come home last night and I was worried. I haven't been able to talk to Shanta because she's been avoiding me since last night. She sent me a text saying that she wants to be alone and that she's worried that I might be mad at her, but all I want to do is talk, but I figured that she'll come around whenever she feels like it. I decided to go make a simple breakfast and as I was putting the eggs on the plate I heard keys jingling and a door opening meaning that East was home. He came into the kitchen and he looked like hell, like he hasn't slept a wink. I wanted to rush to make him feel better, but it wasn't okay at all how he left me hanging worrying about him last night.
"Hey" he said with a apologetic look. I just made him a plate and went to sit in the living room to watch all the Episodes of Star that I missed. A few seconds later Dave popped in with his plate. We sat and ate in silence until he got up to go put our dishes in the sink. Few moments later he came and sat down next to me pulling me on his lap.

Dave POV
I looked at her and was thankful that she was in my life. I've been through a lot of shit and I just needed someone to come home to every night and talk to while she tells me about her day. Beautiful wasn't even the words for Nzuri. I wanted to know everything about her from her favorite color to her plans for the future.
"Look ma, I'm not good with this apologizing shii, but I'm really sorry for leaving you here alone in this big ass house all night."

She sighed before speaking "It's not that Dave. I was worried about you and I wanted to talk. I know you were feeling down I just wanted to help with that." It shocked me that a female was actually worried about me, with this lifestyled I lived most bitches just wanted to be there because it was fast life.

"I know and it'll never happen again. I promise to come home to you every night and to always call or text to letchuu know wassup."

She nodded "I don't need to know your every move David. I just wanna know you're safe. I really care about you." I nodded and kissed her forehead. Something I noticed was that I was touchy feely with her a lot, but she never seemed to complain.

"Where were you anyway?" She looked up at me

"What happened to you not wanting to know my every move" I said laughing

"Boy please. I just asked because I kept calling you and your phone went straight to voicemail"
At that moment is when I realized that I didn't even have my phone. I thought where I could have left it and when it hit me the words "DAMN" couldn't have been thought loud enough. I'd be damned if I was going back there. I would just have to go buy another one.

"Dave!" Nzuri snapped

"Huh?" I asked stupidly

"I asked where were you, I've been calling you for 3 mins now."

"Oh my bad ma. I was at the trap handling business. I got caught up and fell asleep there. I have a Lil couch I sleep on whenever I have early mornings or something." She looked at me as if I wasn't telling the truth and I hoped to God she didn't press the issue.

"Oh. Okay" THANK YOU!

"Say ma, let's go out today. Since you were locked here last night."

"Where are we gonna go? It's Monday and 12 in the afternoon"
I thought about it a Lil bit.
" I got a place. Go call up Shanta and get dressed. Tell her I'll send Trav to get her while you get dressed" She smiled, said okay, and went upstairs.
Lord knows I hate lying to her, but I can't handle anymore drama right now and I need her on my side. I hope that the saying is true, What she doesn't know, won't hurt her.
