me.”
    â€œYou’re right, baby, and I’m apologizing.”
    â€œJaquon, I have heard it all before, remember? I have numerous lines logged into my memory, along with all the hurtful things you have ever done to me. And right now, my gut is telling me you are lying yet again, and that you were with a woman last night. You probably did stay with Derrick, but at some point last night you had your dick buried deep in some trick.”
    â€œBaby, come on. I know I hurt you in the past, and I promised you I wouldn’t do that again,” he said actually sounding like he meant it.
    â€œAnd if you think calling me from a pay phone was supposed to smooth things over, you must have fallen and bumped your damn head because I don’t believe your cell phone went dead.”
    â€œMy phone did go dead,” he said. “That’s another reason why I couldn’t call you.”
    I looked at him like he was stupid. Walking over to the nightstand, I picked up my phone and dialed his number. His cell phone rang. I looked at him, and his face fell to the floor. His chin was deeply tucked in his chest while he tried to think of another lie.
    â€œDead, huh?”
    â€œIt was, until I charged it. Derrick has the same phone I do.”
    â€œAnd you used his cord to charge your phone, right?”
    â€œYes.”
    â€œYou were too drunk to drive home. You were too drunk to call me. But I’m supposed to believe you were sober enough to remember to plug your damn phone in and charge it?”
    â€œYes. No. I mean ... Baby, you’re confusing me,” he said.
    â€œPeople who lie get confused, Jaquon, and you are a straight up liar,” I stated, getting madder each second that passed that he was near me.
    â€œKea, I know you think I was cheating.”
    â€œDid you?” I asked with arms crossed.
    â€œNo, I didn’t. I was with the guys.”
    â€œSure you were. You know what? I’m too pissed to talk to you right now. You come strolling up in here like things between us is all good, but they aren’t. If you want me to be wooed by your flowers and want me to throw my arms around your neck, happy you finally came home to me, it’s not going to happen this time. What I should have done was wait at the door to issue you a can of Whoop Ass before I gave you your walking papers.”
    â€œDon’t do this.”
    â€œI’m furious, but I’m not going to trip. I’m not going to mess up my makeup fighting with you. I got somewhere to be.”
    â€œBaby, where you going?”
    â€œIf you were here like a man should be with his woman at night, then you would know. But since you’re acting like my roommate , you’ll get no information from me.” I picked up my keys, tossed my purse over my shoulder, and left him standing there bewildered.

Kea
    Pulling in front of the bridal shop, I practically jumped out of my vehicle before it stopped moving. I rushed into the place, yanking open the double glass doors to get in. Looking around, I saw my sister Emory talking with one of her bridesmaids.
    â€œSorry I’m late. I got held up,” I said.
    â€œYou’re almost an hour late, Kea. You barely caught me.”
    â€œI know, Emory, but I told you I got held up.”
    â€œIt must have been Jaquon,” she said turning her lips up at me.
    I looked at her not wanting to explain anything. I guess from the expression on my face she knew to leave it alone.
    â€œOkay, I will not go there with you today. It’s about me now. So let’s get started,” she said pulling me by the arm, taking me to the woman handling the order.
    â€œNow you know each of you have chosen a different style of gown, but all of them are the same color.”
    â€œI remember,” wishing I could forget.
    â€œI can’t wait for you to try yours on because it is gorgeous. I saw it when she took out the other dresses.”
