AMBER P.O.V. –

“So…how was it?” I sat on the living room couch impatiently waiting the details of Stac and Trav’s date. She turned to me with her legs crossed Indian style.

“It was cool.” She blushed.

“Just cool?”  I narrowed my eyes and turned my lips up at her looking skeptical.

“Okay it was great.”

We both grabbed each other’s hand in excited me and did a little scream.

“Where did he take you?”

“Checkers girl.” She rolled her eyes.

“Checkers?”

“I was mad at first. But it gave us a chance to you know, vibe and talk.”

“Well that’s good. Were you nervous?”

“Uh…a little. But his sense of humor put me at ease. Then when we got back to the apartment, we just stayed up all night talking.”

“About?”

“Everything. Life. What he’s looking for. What I’m looking for. Amb I really like him. I just don’t know if he feels me like that.”

“Why you say that?”

“I don’t know he’s hard to read. I don’t know if he’s just being flirtatious or if he’s really into me.”

“You just got to be patient and see.”

“I know.” She sighed. “The only bad thing is everybody leaves tomorrow. I go back to Philly he goes back to New Orleans.”

“Well I got some good news. Sata and I are taking a flight to Philly and Trav and Aug are going to drive the U-Haul up there.”

“Oh my God, when you move?” Her eyes got bright.

“Yeah. So do you mind if Trav stays with you for a couple of days, just until he helps Aug move in the stuff and leaves to go back to Nola.”

“No I don’t mind. I’m a little nervous though. The only man that’s ever stayed overnight with me is Aug. And he’s slept on the couch.”

“Travis doesn’t have to sleep in your bed Stac.”

“But I want him to.” She joked.

“Girl you a mess.” I shook my head.

“Nah but honestly, I know I’mma super nervous.”

“Just think of it as you guys being friends that way you won’t feel uncomfortable. There’s no pressure whatsoever.”

“I am going to do that.” She took a deep breath. “I feel like such a little girl.”

“No honey this is something new for you. Of course it’s going to be a bit uncomfortable.” I rubbed her shoulder.

Her phone started buzzing. She looked down at it.

“That’s Cha. She’s outside. Thank you for everything Sis.”

“Aww you’re welcome sweetie. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you as much as you helped me.” I hugged her and laughed.

I opened the door and waved at Cha, Muk and the girls who were in the car waiting for Stacy. She hugged me one last time then went to car and they drove off.

I closed the door and went into the bedroom to change the sheets and comforter.

Aug had took my car to go hangout with his mom, grandma, and Trav before they all left tomorrow. He took Sata with them.

I was in the room changing the sheets when I heard the door open and close. I just brushed it off as my mom. She told me she would be home today. Aug didn’t have a key, so I knew it wasn’t him. I just kept making the bed. I heard footsteps, but I figured it was my mom in the kitchen.

My back was turned to the door, when I felt a pair of arms grab my waist and put their hand around my mouth. I was totally freaked out.

The male voice whispered, “Don’t make a sound.” And right then I knew who it was.

I bit his finger.

“Damn Amb.” He let me go.

“Don’t play with me like that Durrell.”

He laughed. “Radio-killah in the building!”

I rolled my eyes and kept making the bed.

“So you ain’t gon give big bro no hug or nothing? I ain’t seen you in what? A month, two months.”

“Yeah you can’t make time to see me, but you can make time to see Tanya.” I rolled my eyes.

“Aww babygirl jealous. Your bestie stealing your big bro away from you.” He came up to me and gave me a big bear hug and planted sloppy kisses all on my cheek.

I pushed him off. “Yuck!”

“No need to get jealous. That’s all gon change.”

“How?”

“Your boy just booked a tour.”

“Tour? With who?”

“India Arie and Musiq Soulchild.”

“Oh my God!” I jumped up and down and hugged him. “Really?”

“Yeah. All I need you to do his look over the paperwork and make sure it’s good.”

“I got you. Just leave it for me. Oh my God Rell this is soooo big!”

“When I met India I was telling her how your favorite song was Ready For Love. So we got a little something planned for the tour. Little Duet. Know what I’m saying.”

I jumped up and down. “I can just imagine how magical that’s going to be.”

“You ain’t got to imagine. You gon be there. I told her you were coming with me as my manager. She’s real excited to meet you.”

“Oh…uh…” I sat on the bed.

“What’s wrong big head?” He moved his hands through my hair and sat next to me.

“I’m not going to be able to go with you.”

“Why? You said you would.”

“I know, but I can’t anymore.”

“What’s changed between now and then? It’s supposed to be us. Remember the plan? We both out here getting this money.” He smiled and hugged me.

I hadn’t told Rell I was back with Aug. For one I knew he would be angry at me. He still is not over how Aug tried to hit me and left me. Even if Aug was changed, Rell wouldn’t care.

“Sata is still young. I don’t want her on the road.”

“Mama said she would keep her. You don’t have to go to every date.”

“Still. She’s so young I don’t want to be leaving her like that.”

I heard the doorbell ring. My heart started to race.

“You expecting somebody?” He looked at me.

“Uh no. Let me go see who it is.” I got up to get the door.

I knew it was Aug. I slowly opened the door.

“Hey baby.” He bent downed and kissed me. Aug noticed Rell who had come to the front.

“Hey Rell ain’t seen you in a minute. What’s poppin’ Mr. King of R and B?” Aug smiled brightly and tried to dap Rell. But Rell turned to me.

“Oh so this why you can’t go?” Rell looked at me angry.

Aug looked at Rell and me confused. Sata was laid on Aug’s shoulder.

I closed the door behind Aug.

“Rell I don’t feel like arguing.”

“You don’t feel like arguing? But you felt like crying on my shoulder ever damn night when this nigga left you.” Rell got in my face.

“Whoa. What the hell is going on?” Aug looked confused.

“You trying to Ray Rice my sister that’s what’s going on. The only reason I ain’t whooping yo ass is because you got my niece in your arms.”

“Amb hold Sata.” August gave her to me.

“August. Don’t.”

“Nah this nigga got a problem with me. Let’s settle this shit like men.”

Rell laughed. “You far from a man mutha-fucka. Men don’t beat women. Men don’t leave women alone to raise babies by themselves. So you ain’t no man. You something but it ain’t no man.”

“Aug y’all just stop.” I yelled out.

Him and Aug were toe to toe.

“I’m not doing shit. It’s this nigga acting like I’m some bitch.”

“I’m just calling it like I see it.” Rell looked Aug up and down.

 “Rell he’s Sata’s father. Leave him alone.”

“No Nate was Sata’s father. This nigga was a sperm donor.”

August looked at me, I looked down.

“Says the nigga that cheated on his wife and had a baby on her? Take care of your own fucking house before you come in mine.”

Rell laughed an evil laughed and I knew what that meant.  He drew back and punched August. They were on the floor fighting.

“Stop it!” I yelled.

They weren’t listening. Sata started crying seeing them. I was going to put a Sata in her crib, but luckily my mother and Governor Parker walked in. Governor Parker separated them.

“What the hell is going on?” My mother screamed.

Rell nor Aug answered. They both had bloody lips. Rell moved his jaw side to side.

“You gotta leave son” My mother told August.

August looked at me. I sighed.

 “Ain’t nobody gon come in my house causing havoc. He can’t come back in here. He ain’t been nothing but trouble since he entered your life.”

She took a crying Sata from me. “Get him outta my house.” My mother narrowed her eyes at me.

I went over to Aug. “Go sit in the car while I get you some ice.”

Aug went outside to the car.

“Rell you okay baby?” My mother called out.

“Yeah I’m cool Ma.” Rell came into the kitchen with me.

“Why did you punch him?”

“That nigga disrespected me. And besides his ass deserved it for how he treated you.”

“Rell we’ve moved pass that. Like Tanya forgave you, I forgave him.”

“This ain’t shit like me and Tanya. He tried to beat you into the ground.”

 “Just stay out of my business okay.” I said getting the ice out the freezer.

“All the bullshit he put you through. The tears. Making you feel like giving up on life. Treating you like absolute shit. Discarding you like trash and you want me to stay out of it?”

“Yes.” I yelled. “Let me live my own damn life.”

“Well if the nigga hit you again, don’t come calling me.” Rell walked out the kitchen with some ice on his lip.

I got Aug’s ice, a paper towel and some Neosporin then went out to the car.

I was going to put it on his lip but he snatched it from me.

“You supposed to be my woman and you didn’t even defend me.”

“I did.”

“Psh. Take me home.”

“Baby I--.”

“Fuck it. I’ll walk.” He got out and slammed the door and started walking.

I rolled alongside him and tried to get him to get in the car but he ignored me and kept walking. I stopped the car and ran up to him and grabbed his waist.

“I’m sorry baby I didn’t defend you like I should have. Rell doesn’t know how much you’ve changed, but I do. And I’m so appreciative of it.”

“Just not appreciative enough to defend me? You let this nigga call me a sperm donor and not say nothing?”

I was silent. He unwrapped his arms from around me and disappeared into the night.
