JANET POV
"Jesseeee!" I said as he walked in my salon, and he smiled saying "Was hannin baby girl"
I ran up to him and hopped into his arms and he laughed as he lifted me up and he gave me a kiss.
I was finally finished with all my clients and I was about to close up. So that's why he's here right now.
"How you doing?" He asked slowly putting me down and wrapping his arms around my waist.
"I'm tired" I said and he kissed my forehead saying "I know, you been here all day. You needa take a rest sometimes"
"I do, but not often" I said.
"So do it more often" He said.
"The money not gone make itself" I said and he chuckled saying "I'll take care of you"
"No no no" I said and he smacked his lips kissing my forehead saying "Mhm. How about we pick up some food and I'll meet you at your house once we leave here, and we can eat together"
"I'm with that." I said with a smile.
"Good, good" He said.
"Cause I'm hungry chile." I said.
"Me too but it's not really food I wanna eat." He said and I rose my eyebrows.
"Ooop- We ain't there yet buddy, slow ya roll" I said and he laughed saying "I ain't trippin, we'll get there"
"Mmm we'll see." I said with a smirk and we both laughed.
"Excuse me, excuse me" I heard Trevante's familiar voice say and he walked inside of the salon and my eyes widened before I sighed.
Because here we fuckin go.
"The fuck is he doing here" Jesse said.
"I hate to be so rude, but you know what? When I first seen this nigga, something about him I just couldn't get off my mind. So I looked you up, Mr.Foggie Raw. You married right?" Trevante said looking at Jesse.
I scrunched my eyebrows, as I looked over at Jesse and he froze.
Then I looked at Trevante.
"Trevante what are you talking about?" I asked.
"Jesse, also known as Foggie raw, that's his rap name correct?" Trevante said.
"Yeah. What about this married shit?" I said.
Cause get to the point.
"Yes, he's married to a woman named Sha'Wan. Been married to her for 5 years and has a history of cheating on her, and she takes him back all the time. They supposed to be getting a vow renewal next week as his way of apologizing for the last bitch he fucked. He's not only trying to talk to you, but he's also talking to two other women as well. They work at the studio he records at." Trevante said as he chuckled and looked at Jesse.
"That's not true. He's lying, because he's mad that I'm seeing you." Jesse said just looking at Trevante.
Couldn't even look me in my face.
I looked at Trevante and said "I'm telling the truth Janet. And I have proof."
Trevante then looked at the entrance and in walked some woman with her arms folded, and Jesse's eyes widened.
"Really Jesse? Really? Another one?" She said.
"Who is this?" I asked Jesse and he rubbed his face.
"I'm his wife, Sha'Wan. And the mother of his daughter." She said.
"You're MARRIED? And you told me you didn't have any kids!" I said to Jesse.
"WHAT?!" Sha'Wan said looking at him like he was crazy. "YOU DISOWNED OUR DAUGHTER TO PULL THIS BITCH?!!" She yelled.
"First off, do not call me a bitch in my mothafuckin establishment because I didn't even know this nigga was married let alone had a kid. I didn't know anything. He came to me saying he was single!" I said.
Then I rubbed my face because I can never just meet a real nigga.
Like what the fuck.
"I don't give a fuck bitch I'm tired of this nigga cheating on me!" She yelled.
"JOIN THE CLUB BITCH IT HAPPENS TO ALL OF US!" I yelled.
I was beyond pissed.
Trevante looked at Jesse and laughed.
"Woooo." He said to Jesse as he continued to laugh.
"Janet... Let me explain please, everything I felt was real, I just needed more time." Jesse said.
"Time for what?" Sha'Wan said to him. "Sha'Wan I'm not talking to you" He said to her.
"See this the shit I'm talking about." She said shaking her head.
"I am married, yes. And I do have a daughter. Me and Sha'Wan's marriage is a bit rocky right now so in the midst of that, I pursued you. And I should've been honest off the rip but I wasn't and I'm sorry. But like I said before, every moment we spent together was real. But I do love my wife too. I guess I'm just confused right now." He said.
I shook my head as my eyes watered. But I refuse to cry.
I'm just upset. I feel like I'm incapable of being loved properly or something. I don't know.
Welp. Was fun while it lasted.
I walked up to Jesse and slapped him hard across his face, and he held the side of his face as his mouth fell open, and a bit of blood drew from it.
"Well I'll just be got damned" Trevante said laughing his ass off at Jesse. "Told you to stay away from mine." He added.
"Now take your SLUT and get the hell out of my salon." I said to Jesse and his wife.
Sha'Wan looked at Jesse, and he looked at me.
"GO!" I yelled loudly and they both flinched a bit before Sha'Wan left first, quickly.
As she should.
Because she would've been next to get slapped.
Jesse then left right after her, and I just looked at the door as he left.
I squinted my eyes before taking a deep breath and just shook my head.
"Trevante you can go too." I mumbled.
I don't wanna hear no I told you so bullshit from him. I just don't.
Cause I knew that was coming.
"See I told you he wasn't shit, some nerd that wanna be a player-"
"Shut up Trevante." I said.
"I told you he was never gone be better for you than me, and he did even worse because-"
"I NEED YOU TO SHUT UP! SHUT THE FUCK UP! SHUT UP!" I yelled in his face.
"NO YOU SHUT UP!" He yelled back.
"NO YOU SHUT UP NIGGA I'M TIRED OF ALL OF YOU! GET THE HELL OUT OF MY SHIT! NOW!" I yelled at him.
"Janet, I need you to calm down. Okay? I'm not yo enemy. I had my security do some homework on the nigga because his persona was coming off as too perfect. And I knew he was a facade." Trevante said as I sat down and I just looked at the ground, thinking.
"Cause no matter what we still family. And you are still my first love. My only love." He said and I looked up at him. He squatted down and placed his hands on my knees.
"And I know I hurt you in the past but that's just what that is. The past. And guess what? No matter what happens, I'm yo best fuckin friend." Trevante said.
I looked at him for a moment before nodding my head, then I just looked down feeling a wave of sadness take over me.
I stood up from the chair and said "Trevante I wanna be alone right now."
He looked at me and sighed a little. "I understand. Call me if you need me. Okay?"
I just nodded my head.
He then left out of the salon and I just leaned against the wall before burying my face in my hands and I just cried.
This wasn't just about Jesse. It's in general. I always felt a void in my heart when it comes to love.
My dad was the first man I ever loved, and he left me and my mother when I was 14. Then I meet Trevante when I was 17, the ONLY man I ever been in love with, and he cheated and ruined us.
Then I finally get the strength to move on, and the mothafucka lied the entire time, and is married with a kid.
I just don't understand. And I probably never will.
So I just cried.
