Couldn’t even lie.

Did I forgive Keith for fucking Lorna?

Hell no.

That shit still pissed me off if I thought about it too long.

But just because I wasn’t over it didn’t mean the nigga couldn’t treat me good during the forgiveness process.

Shit.

And apparently Keith had decided forgiveness was going to be expensive.

Fine by me.

I touched my necklace while staring at my computer screen.

Of course, me fucking with Keith again meant I’d been dodging Xay.

And this nigga was losing his fucking mind.

Calls.

Texts.

More calls.

Xay: Where you at?

Xay: You busy?

Xay: Come see me.

Xay: So you just don’t answer now?

That last one always made me laugh.

Nigga would send my government name like he was my fucking father.

Two nights ago he called me three times back-to-back.

I let every one ring.

Not even because I didn’t want to talk to him.

I just wasn’t jumping anymore.

There was a difference.

When he had time, I had time.

When he wanted pussy, I had pussy.

When he could sneak away from Sam, suddenly I needed to rearrange whatever the fuck I was doing.

But if I needed him?
