Kain stores money in his safe before locking it. It was about time that he headed home. He had been working all day long. Ask Charmaine and he finally got what he wanted.

He was chillen. He knew he could get her back.he just had to prove hisself. Sometimes that moment where Charmaine broke up with him played over and over again in his head.

It wasn't real to him until when he got home and there was no one there with him.

"Girl your feet look disgusting"Charmaine purses her lips as she laughed at Tiani feet.
Her belly was poking she couldn't really see her feet to know that the paint on her toes were chipped.

"Okay we at the nail salon the getting fixed "Tiani snapped back at her.
"Y'all something else"Karma laughed

"Nah she need to stop talking to me crazy. Ever since You broke up with Kain you been on some other shit"

"Yeah whatever"Charmaine rolled her eyes. It was the truth. She loved Kain with everything in her. She just had to let him go. Their relationship wasn't balanced. She didn't want to be a second option.

"Damn y'all really broke up?" Karma knew that they broke up. She was still surprised.
"So when's this grand opening?"Charmaine looked down at her nails while they we're drying.

"Some time text week. I'll put the info in the group chat" Karma said.everyone peeped how Charmaine changed the subject. They all kept their mouths closed though. They wasn't going to press her.

"Well I'm about to go pick up Malani from dance "Charmaine got up from her seat.

"Alright.let me know when you get home."Tiani told Charmaine . She nodded her head as she left out of the nail salon. They weren't making her feel better. She was only irritated by them if for anything. She didn't have to pick Malani up. Kain still did for her. Charmaine knew she couldn't tell Malani, only for her sake. She knew how attached she was to Kain.

She walked across the parking lot. The shopping center was very active. People coming and going. However she couldn't shake the feeling of her being watched by someone.

She popped the locks to her car. She was ready to get home.
She was able to get a apartment in The same building as Karma. Finding a new place to stay was one of the easiest things that she could have did.

She had to retrieve her things from Kain house. She didn't want to see him cause she didn't know what to expect. He had her wrapped around his finger,but she knew exactly what was right and what was wrong.

Charmaine pulled out of the parking space. She looked at the time seeing it was four. Kain wouldn't be home around four. He was actually his busiest around that time.

"You seen Carlos?" Omarion asked Kain. He could only shake his head no. He had so much on his plate and Carlos was his least of worries.

"Watch out for that nigga. I ain't really feeling him"Omarion told him. His vibe was off. Kain knew he could always take Omarion word. He never did him wrong. However, Carlos never proved himself to be anything else besides a thurl ass nigga.

Kain looked over at Omarion with his eyebrow raised.
"I hear you " kain told him.
Kain pulled up in front of his cousins house. His cousin Mac was always in the mix. He always knew about who was beefin with who,and who did what.

Kain got out the car shutting the door behind him. MAC was sitting on his porch in a pair of shorts with slides on his feet. He held a blunt in his hand. Letting it burn away.

"Yo" MAC looked up and a grin appeared when he saw his cousin.
"Yo where you been young nigga?"he stood up from the porch to give Kain dap.

"I been around. That's it," Kain smirked. His eyes landed on the little girl who was playing with chalk.

"I know she ain't yours "
"Yeah that's my lil one Mac smiled. Kain shook his head in disbelief.he couldn't believe his cousin went out and had a kid. Mac always spoke about how he never wanted kids.

"Juel"Mac called out to the little girl. She was about three years old.

"Look this ya unc"the little girl shyed away from Kain. He smiled at her. She reminded him of Milani.

He loved her as if she was his own. He missed her,

"Go in the house with mommy"he held the door open for his daughter. He still held his blunt in his right hand. Kain sat on the step. Omarion just stood beside him.

"So heard you out here Wildin "Mac started with a smirk on his face. Kain scratched his beard. He already knew it was going to be a lot of bullshit.

Charmaine laid in bed staring at the picture on her screen. It was Kain.

"He's such an asshole"she thought out loud.
"All that time y'all invested? That was just about a year. I'm sure y'all can overcome this little bump in the road. Who': perfect?"

"No doubt,but he needs to learn. He always says he understands me but he don't
