More Than Friends

Chapter 72

"Alright, I'm going to get Adam ready and shower" she told him and he nodded.

"I'll get Adam ready for you" he told her and she nodded.

"Alright I'm going to shower then" she said walking in the room.

As they pulled up Payton noticed Lauren's car in the driveway. Sighing to herself, she got out and headed to the front door with August on his crutches and Adam on her hip. At the birthday party, Lauren was giving her crazy stank eyes. Payton didn't entertain it because she had ever reason to give me the attitude she did.

"AUNTIE P IS HERE" they heard Layla yell from the other side of the door.

"Don't open the door yet" Lauren said and she smacked my teeth.

The whole suing Lauren back was to show her that Payton wasn't to be played with. The judge was in her favor for the lawsuit & now everything Lauren had was Payton. They just needed her to sign off on the properties and she owned everything.

"Auntie P" Layla said hugging her legs as Lauren opened the door and walked away from it.

"Hey kiddo, yo Lauren let me talk to you outside" Payton told her as she stood still on the porch.

"Why" she asked with a attitude, Payton ignored it.

"Layla get my baby and y'all go in the house" Payton told her and she went and Lauren sigh.

"You good P" August asked her and she nodded before he walked in closing the door.

"What do you want Payton" Lauren asked and she sigh deeply.

"Listen we grown let's not do the whole attitude thing because at the end of the day we sisters and that what matters so this whole attitude stuff ain't worth it" Payton told her and she sigh.

"Attitude because you're taking not only from me but my kids. What do you expect" Lauren snapped at me and Payton remembered to keep her cool.

"And if you would've won the case you would've took from me and my kid, so let's not act like this is my fault Lauren" Payton told her in her defense.

"I wasn't expecting it to go this far" Lauren told her and she was so upset.

"I wasn't expecting any of this, why did you sue me yo" Payton asked her in confusion.

"Payt- I didn't try to" She started getting emotional.

"So you didn't try to use your own two feet and run your mouth to a lawyer and sue me... what's the real reason you sued me" Payton asked her really wanting to know.

"Jam- Jamel didn't get a trade or drafted so he's not doing anything. He's in debt and our house was at stake so he convinced me to sue you for the money because we're going broke and since you've gave me ownership the business isn't moving likes it suppose to... half of the girls quit because you left and it's just so much. I had no choice" she explained to Payton.

"Lauren you had more than enough choices"  Payton  told her and she looked at her as she wiped her face.

"And what choice would that be Payton" Lauren said with so much emotion.

"What you're doing now. Telling me instead of going behind my back and doing this kind of stupid shit. You did that with the shop and now you tried to do it with the court but legal don't give a fuck so it backfired on you and now you mad at me and the only person you should be mad with is yourself" Payton explained to her and Lauren sigh taking it in.

"Payton I'm sorry I'm just stressed and I don't feel like you would've wanted to hear me out because I was wrong for going behind your back I know but I ju- I'm sorry" Lauren told her sincerely.
