You can cry a river
'Till an ocean starts to form.
But she will always remember
Cuz she's a woman scorned
And if you ever get her back
It will never be the same
She's cuttin' the corners of her eyes
Every time she see your face
Now your trust is out the door
She don't want you no more
You used to tell your boys, not me
And she would always be there for you
If you had took the time to see
What that woman meant to you
Is what the mirror said to me,
Kendra POV
It's been a few days and Dario has been forcing his way back in my life. He won't leave! He stalks me with every move I make. He just became irritating, being with him isn't as intimate like it use to be. Everytime I look at him I cut the corner of my eyes. I tried calling the police, but he stops me every time
Today I was going to go see L.T, I had to talk to him. This is why I need my baby to come home, he would get me out of this situation. Kenyatta was going to come with me since it's a long drive.
I went in the living room and start cleaning up after Dario. He slapped my ass, as I bent over to pick up a of a piece of paper.
"Damn, that's all mine"
"Go home" I mumbled as I walked away from him.
Someone knocked on the door and I answered
"Hey girl" Kenyatta said as she walked in, sge saw Dario and looked in shock. He didn't even acknowledge her.
"Kendra wha--"
"Just come help me find my keys and we can go" I pulled her arm and we went upstairs in my room.
"Kendra what is he doing here, please tell me your not with him. Please" she said in a concerning tone.
"He won't leave!"
"Girl if you won't call the police, he's not suppose to be around you"
"We're together" I said weakly
"Kendra, I know I'm the last one yoi would take advice from when it comes to you and him. But your being stupid, why are running back to him. Are you scared of him? Aren't you with the gangster"
"Dario broke us up, that's why I'm going to go see him. No I'm not scared of him, I'm just-- I'm letting him hang around, my keys aren't in here, let's go look downstairs."
....
"Dario, do you have my keys?"
"Yep"
"Can you give me my stuff please?"
"Where you goin' "
"None of your buisness, give me my damn keys!"
"No, tell me where you goin"
"To the store" I lied
"I'm going to go see my man, so give me my shit " I said with an attitude.
He smirked and put his feet on my coffee table.
"Okay go see yo man"
"Give me my keys!"
"Dario stop being a bitch and give her back her shit!" Kenyatta yelled.
"Shut up little girl"
"You know what Ya-Ya, let's just take your car"
"Okay come on"
We started walking out the door and Dario grabbed my arm.
"You not going to see that nigga, what did I tell you last night, get back in the house"
"Stop talking to my sister like she's yo bitch!"
"It's okay Kenyatta, Dario I'll be back"
"No! Look baby, he don't really want you. You just cheated on him anyway he ain't trynna deal with you "
Damn, he has a point.
"Come on Kendra, let's go."
Dario took my purse out my hand and kissed me on my lips.
"Stay with me baby"
"It's okay Kenyatta, imma stay home"
"Kendra, what's going on with you? Come on, let's go see your man"
"I'm just gonna stay home, he doesn't wanna see me anyway"
"Don't listen to what Dario tell you."
"And she can listen to you! You the one who ruined what we had!"
"Kendra let's go"
"No, imma stay home" I walked upstairs to my room and slammed the door. I went in my bed and start shedding tears, all I wanted was for L.T to come home. I was crowded by the two people who hurt me, how did I fall off? Why did I do this to L.T., I felt like I didn't have control over nothing
.......
I felt Dario rubbing my arm as I slept, I woke up and looked at him.
"What do you want?"
"I'm just checking on you baby, you been in here all day."
"I'm just tired Dar, can you go home. I need a break"
"No I wanna be with you, why you actin like this baby?"
"Dario, I don't want you no more. You will always be in my heart, I just want L.T, can you leave" I whined
He rolled his eyes "Why you chasing after him, his old ass don't love you. How many times I gotta tell you that"
"You don't love me Dario"
"Yes I do!"
"You don't Dario, your the main one that hurt me! You broke my heart but L.T found the pieces and fixed it for me. I don't want you after what you did to me, I love you. But our relationship, our chemistry can never be the same. I can't look at you the same."
He took a deep breath "well imma make it right, im the same Dario baby"
"Exactly same, I'm sure you haven't changed at all. Dar, I need you to go home. Let me just go back to L.T."
"No" he said sternly, then he start kissing my neck. That night we had sex, will he did. It felt good but I didn't moan or make any sounds, I just stared at the ceiling and waited for him to get off of me. When he did I took a shower and scrubbed myself like I was washing all my sins away.
I felt depressed, because Dar was forcing his in my life and forcing L.T out. L.T was right he was going to try to ease his way back in my life. I don't have the same feelings I had for Dario, and I fear him, he's not hitting me or anything. He just makes me scared, his vibe always makes me feel down. It's just not the same, I feel like an idiot.
2 years later. 2001
It's been two years, since i've been back with Dario. It got better, I start loving him like old times. Kenyatta cut me off for going back to him,so did my mom. But he have changed a little, he hasn't cheated or hit me, he's actually been making promises and keeping them.
It's been two years and Ja'lynn's season finale is this year, I'm gonna miss this show man, but im getting older time to move on in my career. Dario has been doing his show and movies, his career is going well I guess.
I stood infront of the mirror and put on my make up, then Dario eased behind and kissed my neck.
"Where you about to go"
"Rehersal baby"
He rubbed my swollen belly, I was 3 months pregnant. No one knew,just like the last time. But this time I'm not hiding anything, I'm going to have this baby.
"We gotta start picking out baby names" I said as I rubbed his head..
"I don't know what to name it yet"
"I hope it's a girl"
"I hope its a boy"
I rolled my eyes "last time you wanted a girl"
"Well this time I want a boy" he said taking a swig of his Hennessy. He drunk a lot, I would say he's a alchoholic, cause drinking is all je ever does.
"Dario, stop drinking for once"
"Stop tellin me what to girl"
"Fine fine".
The phone rung and I went to go answer i
"Hello?"
"Hi, is this Kendra"
"Yes, it is. Who am I speaking with"
"This is L.T's mother and--"
"Mama Linda! Oh my god hey! I haven't talk t to you and so long"
"I know baby, you know L.T. just got out about a week ago and whers celebrating. Where having a big gathering you should come by. It's on Saturday "
"He's o--" I remembered Dario was in the room. "Yeah I'm gonna come, of course I'm coming. Where is he at now?"
"At his house, you remember where that's at right"
"Yeah I do, I'm going to go see him today"
"He would probably like that baby"
"I hope so"
"Well I was just calling to invite you"
"Okay Mama Linda, I will see you there"
"Okay baby I love you"
"I love you too mama" I hung up the phone and cheesed so hard.
My baby is home!
I grabbed my purse and my keys, then I looked at Dar who was standing by the window looking outside.
"Okay I'm going to rehearsal baby" I lied
I walked out the door and jogged to my car with excitement.
