When we were done buying groceries we loaded all of the bags into the car. I jumped in the car and looked at Shantii. All while we were in the store she was quiet as fuck, and that's not normal.

"Shantii you okay?" I asked.

"I'm okay but ..guess who I saw at the mall? I was with the girls," Shantii said and looked away.

"Who?" I asked, a little loud. I hoped it wasn't Quinn, that nigga got me fucked up.

"Okay, so me and the girls were shopping around and buying stuff. We went to the food court and I noticed a lot of couples, and one of the boys looked familiar. I couldn't put my finger on why he looked so familiar though.. It wasn't until we left that I figured it out. It was Trey," Shantii said, shaking her head .

"Wait wait Trey?" I asked. "Yes Trey!" she replied, rolling her eyes.

"Trey Trey? Our Trey?!" I asked, getting loud. "Yes, you know any other Treys?!" Shantii yelled, rubbing her temples.

"Now now!! How you gone tell Monae?" I asked looking at her. "I don't know. I know she really likes him so I don't know how she'll take this," she said, holding her head between her hands.

"Girl I thought Trey was a sweetheart," I said, a little sad. "I don't know..he probably is. We can't judge him off of that, we need answers first," Shantii said.

I looked over at her, raised an eyebrow then plugged the key into the ignition, leaving her to think about what she would do.

Shantii

When we got to Keshina's house, we put all of her bags up and headed to my house. I had to tell Monae about this Trey shit and I wanted Keshina to be by my side.

I put the key into the lock and opened the door. I heard noise in the kitchen. I looked to see it was Monae, making some noodles. I plopped down at the kitchen table and tried to think of ways to tell her this.

"Hayy Monae," Keshina said, cheesing. "Hey boo, oh hey Shantii, I ain't see y'all come through the door." Monae smiled.

I gave her a weak smile, I was thinking about beating around the bush but decided against it.

"Yesterday, when we was at the mall, I saw Trey kissing a girl," I blurted, and looked up at her. The smile vanished from her face and she started turning red.

"You saw what!?" she yelled, I looked up at her. "I saw Trey kissing a girl," I repeated. She plopped down on the seat next to me and laid her head on the table.

"Why are people always playing with my emotions? I mean, damn we weren't together but.." she cut off, her voice was barely above a whisper.

I felt bad, so bad. Why would Trey do some stupid shit like that? I didn't regret telling her because if Jaylon was kissing on a different bitch, other than me, I'd want to be notified.

"Don't worry," I said, already on my phone.

Me: Come through

Trey: Why?

Me: Don't question me.

I finished messaging him, and waited for him to come. He didn't text back so I assumed he was on his way.

I heard Monae sniffling besides me, Keshina plopped down in the seat next to me and started rubbing her back to comfort her.

I really felt bad because at the end of the day, Monae never had anyone on her side, her dad always gone, her mother out of the picture, her abusive step mom beating on her.
