I clutched onto my overnight bag walking up to the house door , knocking against it pushed the door open unintentionally, I then stepped into the house slowly .

"Hello?" My voice echoed throughout the house . I closed the door back before locking it and walking down the hall coming across the livingroom and I dropped my bags when my eyes layed on an weakly looking Dinero trying to pick up his double cup while he sat on the floor in the corner of his livingroom .

I ran to take it from him , he looked confused but in a daze.

I took the cup from him slowly , he hesitated before letting it go and I sat it near the fire place .

I looked back at him seeing tears falling from his cheeks . Pulling him into my chest as I stood on my knees and held onto him rubbing his back while he sobbed in my arms.

"She wasn't supposed to die! It wasn't supposed to happen like that!" He held onto me tighter .

"What happened Dinero?"

"My mama , they got her . She gone"

-

" We was never close" He shurgged taking another pull from his blunt while he layed his head on my stomach staring at the wall "She kicked me out when I was 16 after she found out I was dealing , that's when I met yo pops ."

"Those drugs can take you quick Din-"

"Genisis" He cut me off. "My name is Genisis Warn Kitchens" He glanced at me before looking back at the wall. "I know that shit be killing me , ion wanna be here anymore that's the point , ian got shit to live for"

"Yes you do" I felt myself tear up . "I don't think we understand how much our existence has a toll on other people . After my momma died I thought the same thing . But there's people who love you Genisis , sooner or later you'll realize it . Even if you don't have anyone I'm not leaving you. "

"Ion know that fasho"

"I'm telling you. " I lifted his head and looked him in his eyes holding his faace with my hands on his temples "I'm not leaving you. "

He layed back down ajusting his body to his liking on my stomach and I played with his hair "Why'd you come so fast?"

"The last ime somebody said they needed me I ignored it and now their dead" I blew out some air

He nodded "I respect it , why everybody call ypu Nari? I know that isn't your real name."

I laughed "Might as well be , but it's my middle name. "

"So what's yo full name?"

"N'Ace Nari Moore"

He looked at me like I was crazy "Pronounce dat"

"Ny-ace" I shrugged "No y. "

"Gotcha, where you been these couple days ian see you?"

I looked down and moved my lips to the side and he looked at me sideways then started laughing

"So you gotchu a nigga huh?" He laughed some more and I shook my head

"I wouldn't say he's my nigga at all, we was vibing for a couple days and just when I was about to catch feelings he showed me I can't trust em" I explained and he just gave me a blank stare "What?"

"You so beautiful and smart , know it's something that got you feeling like you can't control yoself around niggas . I seen that the first time I hung out witchu , thats why I aint fuck"

"So what you tryna say?"

"When did y'all ever hold a conversation?"

"We never held a real conversation" I frowned looking down at my nails

"And how did y'all first start fucking wit eachother?"

"He popped up at my house warning me about somebody I used to fuck with"

"And then what happened?"

"..."

"You threw yourself at him right ?"

"Why you making it sound like imma hoe or sum Genesis?"

"Ian even saying that , I'm saying niggas don't respect a girl who really dont have respect for herself . You barely knew the nigga , and the first thing you do i-"

"We didn't have sex that day" I cut him off

"So when yall have sex?"

"Some time after..."

"Nigga you acting like it makes a difference? That nigga aint put no effort in to get to know you . When you did all that shit with him on the first night you showed him who you was , that might not be who you really are but thats who you showed him and he took advantage of that. Lemme ask you this what is his real name?"

"..."

"Answer , whats his real name?"

"Ion know Gen" I mumbled

"Moved too fast . I'll admit I shouldn't have done what I did on the first day we were chillin , just didn't want my future girlfriend to think it was ok to ignore me . Anyways-stop smiling" He chuckled an I covered my face

"But like I was saying you gotta understand the difference between a nigga who speaks to you on his free time and a nigga that frees his time to speak to you , have an actual conversation with you .

The difference between a man who spends time with you when he's not to busy and a man who is never to busy to spend time with you" He stared at his blunt and I felt a tear drop but quickly wiped it

This nigga spittn

"Why you crying?" He got up and pulled me into a hug while I wiped a tear

"I'm trying not to be emotional but its like , ever since my ex and sister died I've been insecure . Like I feel as offI would have had sex with him and gave him what he wanted , he wouldn't even have had sex with my sister and they wouldnt be dead right now . I only have 2 bodies but i've just let people control me and the lack of respect I do have for my body towards them two is something I've never realized"

"Don't regret none you did in the past take it as a lesson and dont let history repeat itself" He said

"I hear you" I nodded as he layed back down but on his stomach wrapping his arm arohnd my waist "Do you feel like your past had had a toll on you to this day?"

"My past dont define me .Anything that happened to me was never my fault . I came out stronger and Im actually proud of who I tuned out to be .Even though how I might feel in certain situations, I know who I wanna be and I'm not gone stop until I achieve it" He shrugged and I smiled

"So you dont wanna be in the game yo whole life?"

"At some point you gotta give that shit up , imma be old ashit and have kids witch- but yeah imma have kids and ion want them to have to watch they back fo nun"

"So what you wanna do in the future from now?"

"I'm gonna be more then I am now"

"Everyones not going to see the vision until you make it a reality"

"I hear you"

I smirked "So now that we are having a conversation do you think aliens are real?"

"Goodnight" He sighed turning the lamp off and laying his head into the crook of my neck

"But-" I stared and he layed the palm of his hand on my face making me bust out laughing

"I ask you if you wanna run errands with me you say yes and take all day" I stepped onto the curb as we walking into this building

"Shhh, just vibe" He stood behind me as we walked throwing his arms over my shoulder and crossing them "Where we going anyway?"

"The GPS said something about condos ion know why he told me to come-"

I opened the door and walked in the first thing my eyes layed on was the Slim Jims lined up on the counter "I love it"

"Ouu" He reached for one and I smacked his hand making him looking at me crazy

"Don't touch my babies" I picked them up and higged them smiling

"Its a note" He picked up a peice of paper and read it
