"She bout' to get out as soon as we get done talkin'." He went onto say as I slowly sat down onto the bed.
"Welp. Looks like you've been having fun." I mumbled, considering all of the bottles downstairs and the many condom wrappers I saw.
"I'm sure Leek didn't need all those condoms for just one person." I shrugged, feeling myself becoming emotional because I wasn't stupid.
He knew I wasn't stupid.
"It ain't even like that, T." He chuckled while I sat there with a straight face.
"I don't find anything funny." I said to him, making him furrow his eyebrows.
"Whatchu got an attitude for?" He asked nonchalantly, continuing to play the role he's been playing for a month now.
I simply looked at him with hurt eyes as he sat there pretending I had no reason to be mad.
"Dominic, you've been distant for an entire month. This is my first time seeing you in how long?" I ended up snapping, I was so sick of this.
"You've been treating me as if you don't even want to be around me."
"I can't have time to myself, T?" He asked acting as if I was some clingy weirdo. He knew we spent most of our time together, not because I was clingy but because we were actually friends within our relationship.
"Dominic, stop."
"Fucking stop!" I screamed at him, standing to my feet. I was trying my hardest not to argue with him but his energy was so off right now.
"Stop with this passive shit."
"You keep playing games with my mind. You haven't been active in this relationship for an entire month."
"What, T?" He turned his lip up as if what I was saying wasn't true.
"What the fuck is you even sayin' right na'?"
"You've been texting me whenever you want, not answering my calls.." I trailed off.
"Just-" I started but stopped.
"Why are you treating me like this?" I finally broke, feeling my tears begin to roll down my cheeks.
"T." He sighed, standing to his feet and reaching out for me but I snatched away.
"Answer the question." I sobbed.
"Why are you being this way, Dominic?" I slowly wiped my face.
"Are you still mad about what I said? Is that why you want to break up?" I asked and he looked down, obviously feeling bad.
"Na' T." He slowly shook his head.
"That's not why I wan' break up."
"Then just tell me. Please." I begged.
"Because whatever it is Dominic we can fix it, we don't have to break up."
"I'm gon' tell you but whatchu cryin' for, ma?" He asked me as if I wasn't supposed to be hurt and I was starting to feel helpless.
"I'm crying because I love you, Dominic. I've always loved you but now I feel like-" I started but stopped.
