Hate the Player and the Game

chapter 3

"Dahnaysjia snatched him up on Tuesday". Brice tells me.

"That was only two days ago". I say. "He couldn't have possibly moved on from me that quick". I could feel myself start to get jealous. Not because he had a girlfriend, but because I wasn't going to have any of his attention anymore and Tyrone flirting with me was fun. "Well". I say. "It is what it is". The girls watch me with smiles on their faces.

"Dahnaysjia knows that Tyrone still likes you. Shit, the whole school knows that he does". Brye says.

"So.......what is that supposed to mean"?

"It means that she's pissed". Brice says. "She's telling everybody that if you don't back off of her boyfriend then she's gonna beat your ass". I smack my lips at the comment.

"Dahnaysjia won't do shit to me.....shit, she already know what it is, and I don't know why she sweatin' me....I don't mess with Tyrone, he mess with me".

"Well do you want me to go tell her that". Brice says. I forgot about how much of an instigator she was. I thought about it. Dahnaysjia pretty much started this beef because she said all that shit about beating my ass. Now since I know that she said this, then I feel like I have a right to respond.

"Yes.......tell her everything". I say. I then watched as Brice, Cleondra, and Brye get up from our table and walk over to Dahnaysjia and her two friends: Melonie and Treyonna. There was four of us and three of them. They were wanna bee's. They wanted to be just like us so bad that it was killing them. I watched Brice run off her mouth to Dahnaysjia and I watched Dahnaysjia's face change from default to pissed. Dahnaysjia looked my way then mugged me. I mugged back at her and tilted my head, she followed Brice, Brye, and Cleondra back to our table and Melonie and Treyonna followed.

"So.....what's good"? She asked. I lift my hands and shrug my shoulders.

"I don't know, you tell me"? I say. "I heard that you been talkin' shit so I said something". Dahnaysjia crossed her arms.

"Talking shit"? She asked. "Who told you that"?

"It doesn't matter who told me, all I wanted to know was why my name was in your mouth"?

"Diamond, your a rat. Look at the way you dress and leave your ass hanging out all the time.....no one wants to see that shit and you think it's cute".

"Excuse me"? I say standing up and getting offended. "Don't be mad at me cuz your style is what  homeless people might wanna wear". I could hear the cafeteria cracking up laughing behind me.

"See that's the kind of shit I'm talking about. Your a bitch Diamond, and you'll get yours one day".

"Laughable". I grinned.

"OH DON'T GET ME STARTED"! Everyone watched as I wiped Dahnaysjia's spit off of my face as she yelled at me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breathe, but it still didn't stop my anger from boiling up inside me at all.

"FIRST OFF BITCH SPIT ELSEWHERE "! I yelled bumping chest to chest with her. Dah pushes me and I took my right hand and mugged her face back. Dah's head flung back and Brye caught her hair and dragged Dah to the floor.

"Calm down, Calm down"! Brice says over all the ruckus.

"I'm calm....it's just that bitches is hatin' these days.......". Dahnaysjia heard me and quickly stood up.

"Hatin? I don't hate on no hoes". She says lunging at me, but Chardenay and Brice held her back. I just stood there with my hands on my hips and a smirk on my face.

"You see this Dahnaysjia? Even if I wanted to fight you and whoop yo ass.....I wouldn't have to cuz my girls got my back......unlike yours. They then got ghost on you". I say pointing my finger at Melonie and Treyonna falling back behind the crowd. Dah looks at them with embarrassment. Chardenay and Brice let go of Dah as she snatched her arms away from them.
