Drama

It was a rainy and dark night. I had nowhere to go. I had jus broken up with my boyfriend Eric, for cheating on me. As I was driving, my eyes started watering. I could feel the soft warm water sliding down my face. As the tears slowly fell down, I realized my car was slowing down and that my battery was low. At first I thought my gas had run out but I remembered that I filled it up earlier. At that point the soft tears that were flowing slowing were now pouring down my face out of pain and frustration. I didn’t know what to do. At first, I felt so helpless and jus when I thought to myself “Could this day get any worse“, my cell phone rung and it was Eric. “What the hell do you want?” I said in an evil voice.

“Baby, Look I messed up alright. I don’t know what came over me. Can we please talk about it?” “I was very angry at that moment, this nigga just cheated on me and he thought talking about it was going to solve something, and the bad thing about it was that this wasn’t the first, second or third time he’s done this to me. “ You know what Eric, I’ve put up with this shit for to damn long ok and you wanna know something else? I can do bad all by myself.” I instantly hung up the phone and 5-second later it was ringing again. It was Eric but I didn’t answer. I waited until my phone stopped ringing then I called the only person I needed to see at that point, my best friend Keontae. “ Yo Sy'ria, wasup?” Taye’ said, sounding all happy. “Taye’ I need your help.” I was trying so hard not to cry but Taye’ already knew. “Baby girl, what's wrong?” He sounded so concerned. “My battery on my car is dead so I need a jump and I jus caught Eric cheating on me for the millionth time ...” I started crying historically, I couldn’t even finish my statement, for some reason things were getting worse minuet by minuet. “Look Riya, where are you?”

“I’m on the freeway 3 exits away from the Ashby exit.” “Aiight. Sit tight I’m on my way. Ok?” In a low voice I answered back. “Ok.” Then I hung up the phone. I layed my head down on the steering wheel and cried all until Keontae’ arrived. “Riya, Riya!” Taye yelled while knocking on the window. I looked at him and it was like he could feel the pain shooting through me. “Baby girl, open the door.” I opened the door and got out the car. Right when I closed the door to embrace Taye with a hug, a car came and it ran over a puddle of water. It got me soaking wet but I couldn’t even cry there was barely anymore tears left to cry. “Damn! Why is everything happening to me! ” I yelled. I couldn’t take it anymore I really jus wanted to die it was real bad. “Riya, calm down. Pop your hood so we can get you out this rain.” I got back in my car and popped my hood, he gave it a few jumps with his car and I was ready to go. “Ok Riya, follow me to my house ok?” I was so weak at that point and honestly I knew exactly what would cure my pain. I jus wanted Taye to hold me. Tell me everything would be ok and I’d fall asleep in his arms and be happy again. “Ok Taye.” So we drove all the way to his house when we got there he lead me to his room and gave me warmer clothes to put on. “You can wear this right here. When you put it on come to the living room so we can talk ok?” You could see that my pain was really bringing Taye down. Taye was like my protector and at this particularly moment he felt like he couldn’t do anything. “Ok. Thank you.” I said in a very low voice. I put the outfit on it was just a sweater and sweat pants, then I went to the living room where Taye was sitting in the dark with his head in his hands. Once I came in, he lifted his head and begun asking question. “Sy’ria what happened tonight?” “Well, the love of my life...” I was on the verge of crying so I paused, then continued. “...Eric cheated on me again. I jus don’t understand why he’s hurting my like this I mean am I that bad of a girlfriend? He’s done this so many times and every time I take him back but I can’t do it again I can’t keep hurting myself... I don’t know what to do Taye. Why can’t I jus have a man like you?” I broke down at that moment it was jus to much for one day. “Sy’ria you really don’t need Eric and you gotta remember its his lost.” “I feel tired right now. I really don’t even wanna talk about it anymore.” My body grew numb I lost practically every feeling in my bone and I jus wanted to be held but I knew that Taye had a girl friend so I wasn’t going to ask but I was really craving him. I walked to the guestroom and he was right behind me. Once in the room he gave me the hug I wanted the whole time. Except I didn’t let go. That whole thing about him having a girl friend left my mind I knew what I want at that moment and I couldn’t sleep till I got it.

The next day around 1:00, I woke up. The sun was out and it was hot as hell, I mean you couldn’t even tell it was raining the day before. Anyways, I got out of the bed and went to the living room where Taye was. He was sitting on the couch watching the damn Disney Channel like a little baby. “Since when do we watch the Disney Channel?” I said startling him. “OH SNAP!!!! You scared the shit out of me.” he jumped. “I’m sorry didn’t mean to.” I couldn’t help but laugh, the look on his face was so funny I jus let it all out. “Oh, you think that’s funny? Well hahaha!!!! It aint. “I walked over toward him and sat down next to him planting a kiss on his cheek. “ Good morning.” I said. “Look like some bodies in a good mood today.” “Your right, I am in a good mood, thanks to you.” I gave him a little smile that let him know I was very pleased about our long night. “We need to talk about that.” He sort of had a serious look on his face, but I didn’t think much of it. “Wasup?” “Last night wasn’t supposed to happen... I mean don’t get me wrong it was good, but I have a girl and I love her. What I did last night is what Eric did to you and that lead yall to a break up....” I understood everything he said, but at that moment I didn’t wanna hear it. “Well, I’m sorry. It won’t happen again. That quick, my day turned bad. The person I was practically in love with told me what we had was basically a mistake and that jus hurted. “Um... I think I’ma head on home. I need to take a shower and try to get into somethin today.” “You not mad are you?” I knew he didn’t mean it to hurt me but because of the way he made me feel, it hurted anyways, I guess it showed too. “Nope. Why would I be mad?” “Because just a minute ago you were all happy and then jus now yo whole attitudes changed and you tryin to rush out my house.” “Well. I’m not mad. I jus wanna get cleaned up and all my clothes are at home.” I went back to the guestroom and put my shoes on. I already had on some sweats and a white tee so I was set to leave. I went back to the living room and grabbed my keys, I said bye to Keontae’ and left.

Once I got in the car to drive off, I realized I lived with Eric. But then I thought about the fact that I paid the bills and brought home the bacon and shit like that which makes that truly my house and I gave Eric a call. “Hello, Baby is that you?” Eric asked, all excited in shit. “Look, I jus called to tell you I’m on my way home and when I get there you need to be out.” “Baby, we can fix this. I swear to you, if you jus give me one chance I promise I will treat you better.” “NIGGA! I’ve giving you hella chances and every time you fuck up!!! Its over, done, Fenito.” With that said, I hung up. About 30 minutes later I arrived at my house. I saw that Eric’s car was still in front of my house and I swear the blood in me started boiling cause I knew if I saw him, I’d kill him. I walked to my door and opened it. As Soon as I stepped in I saw him coming down the stairs empty handed and I went nuts on a brotha. “I thought I said I wanted you out of my damn house nigga? Why the fuck you still here?” “Baby, I know you mad right now. I jus wanna talk, and then I’ll leave. Please?” “I don’t wanna hear shit you have to say ok? GET YOU SHIT AND GET OUT!!!!!” I walked to the kitchen and that nigga was still behind me so I grabbed a butcher knife and put in his face. “IF YOU DON’T GET THE HELL OUT RIGHT NOW I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL KILL YOU.” He ran towards the door and took another look at me, I started waving it in his face and he opened it. I pushed him out and closed the door behind him locking it. I then ran upstairs and Started throwing his shit out the window till everything that belonged to him was gone. When I was done I went to my couch, turned on my T.V and begun to reminisce about last night. As I was sitting there, my phone rang. “Hello, who’s calling?” I said in my proper voice.
