Kain jogged down the steps and to the movie room. Malani eyes were glued to the seventy five inch screen tv that played Moana -her favorite movie.

Kain claimed the spot besides her and she paid him no attention. She was to busy focusing on how maui was going to get his hook back. He starred at her then smiled a little bit. She looked just like Charmaine. A chocolate princess.

"Oh that's how you feel Lani?"
She moved over wrapping her small hands around his neck. She still didn't take her eyes off the screen. She was hooked on the movie. When ever she was allowed screen time Moana was the only thing she cared to watch.

Kain hugged her back and gave her a small kisses on the cheek.
"How you been. I ain't see you in a while."

"Good"she simply said sounding unintrested. Kain decided to leave her alone for now while she watched her movie. She didn't even seem excited to see him anymore.

He stood up making his way out of the movie room and back into his room.

He slid on his black timberland boots on and grabbed his gun.
He walked over to the bathroom door and knocked then waited for a response

"Yes"Charmaine called out peeking his head through the shower door.
"I'm about to run an errand. Stay here"Kain told her. Charmaine nodded her head and Kain left out.

Little did Charles know he was on his way to his death.
Kain was pissed that he fucked Charmaine up like that. He didn't even care to hear the full story from Charmaine. All he needed to know was that he put his hands on her.

He grabbed his keys to his McLauren. It was his least of favorite car,but it would get the job done.

Charmaine got out the shower and she felt much better than she did before she gotten in the shower. She avoided looking at herself in the mirror. The swollen eyes and busted lip would only remind her of what Charles did,besides who would want to look at her messed up face. She dabbed some  alcohol onto her cuts. She held the yellow plush towel against her chest with her other hand.

Charmaine began to wonder when she would finally catch a break. Just when things finally start to look good she nearly got raped...Again.

She walked out into Kain room and locked the bedroom door. The last thing she needed was her being walked in on. She began to grab some of Kain clothes when she seen a few of her things on the bed...So she thought.

She found a shirt of hers and just about everything else did not belong to her.

She was actually pissed. The underwear nor the shorts did not belong to her. It made her wonder what female they belonged too. She put the T-shirt on that belonged to her then found a pair of Kain boxers then sweats.

She couldn't stand up straight due to her body aching from pain,but she managed to.

Kain swerved in and out of the lane cutting other people off.
He was just two minutes away and his adrenaline was pumping.
On hand rested on the wheel while the other was under his chin stroking his beard.

He could only think about the way he was about to do Charles in. Kain parked his car and got out. Rhonda and all the other loud females spotted Kain and immediately began to run their mouth,"You know that Charmaine girl was messing around with what's her face baby daddy...I'm telling you she ain't no good I don't see why you want that bitch"Rhoda went on as Kain walked.
He ignored her which made her mad,"Fine stay with that stupid ugly ass bitch. She a hoe anyway"

"Yo watch how the fuck you speak on her name "he growled snatching his wrist from her.

"She ain't even nothing special"she spat back.

"Listen you ain't doing nothing but getting on my fucking nerves shut the fuck up What I do and who I chose to fuck with ain't none of your business" he walked into Charmaine building the landlord office door was cracked open and you could hear his faint groans. He pushed the door open and Charles was wrapping his leg with with a ace bandage.

"Come back later"Charles said not bothering to look up.
"Ain't no coming back later. You put your hands on my lady? "Kain scrunched his face up before sending a blow to Charles face. Charles couldn't even get his answer​ out
He fell backwards in his chair.

He yelled our in pain as Kain showed him no mercy,"hit me pussy,Fight me"he challenged

"AAGHHH"Charlie yelled out. He began coughing up blood but that didn't stop Kain.

Two hours later

"And Adam and Thomas got put on the red light so Ms.Clark had to call his mom and dad" Malani rambled on about her class in Pre-k

"That's not good."
""I know that's why I stay on green light"Charmaine smiled caressing Malani face. She was a proud parent. She glimpsed at the clock that was on the wall seeing it was almost ten O'clock almost two hours past her bed time.

"I love you baby but it's bed time"
"I love you"
"I love you too baby"Charmaine kissed her forehead before dimming the lights. She shut the door backing out and she nearly jumped out of her skin when she felt someone behind her.

She turned seeing it was Kain,"Why the hell would you do that?"she pushed him,but her eyes grew wide when she seen the blood on him she distanced herself.

"What the hell did you- Nevermind"she shook her head.
Kain pulled his shirt from over his head as they walked into his room.

He noticed Charmaine had went through his drawers,"I put your clothes on the bed"

"No you left another females clothes on your bed. "
Kain furrowed his eyebrows looking between her and the clothes left on the bed.

Everytime he seen her bruises it only made him angrier,"Those panties and whatever is left on the bed must belong to your girlfriend or sex partner"she sat down on the bed.

Kain pulled his sweats up some and kneeled down in front of her,"you are my girlfriend" He gave her a charming smile while touching her chin.

"Kain please"
"So you ain't my girlfriend? I just beat the shit out of that Charles nigga for you...And you talking bout' you ain't my lady. Getcho' ass over her "she swooped her up in his arms kissing all over her face. He was able to get a laughs out of her. Charmaine came down from her laughing fit and pushed Kain off of her.
"No i'm not your lady  still too busy collecting coins remember?"

"I was busy in and out the country. The timing was wrong. Now my business is handled down there so I do got more time on my hands." He told her while holding her hands.

Yeah​ Kain was all about his woman when he dated,but it didn't feel nothing like this.

"What do you want "she huffed
"We wasted enough time. You know deep down your my ol lady but I just want you to say it. This shit between me and you is long over due"

"Why do you want me? I'm nothing but drama. "

"You serious man?"Kain asked. That was a ridiculous question.
"I'm beyond serious. I'm nineteen with a four year old daughter,I have a crazy ex stalker, I brought the drama with my landlord on you-"

"You must not know what self worth is. At the end of the day none of that shit matters to me I see much more than you see. I ain't ever met someone like you before your just different. Your beautiful,smart shit you just remind me of myself and if you ask me I'm the shit "

"... You gon' have to stop playing yourself like you ain't shit. Foreal "

"I hear you"Charmaine nodded her head. Kain sat next to her pulling her in his lap"

"Are you my lady or what?"he spoke lowly while he  stroked her hair.

"Can you tell me who those clothes belong to?"Charmaine asked moving out of his lap. She laid back using her hands to block out the light.

Kain stares at her,"come on"he pulled her arm.
"Kain i'm hurt"she reminded him.

Kain wrapped his arms pulling her up off the bed carrying her down the stairs.

He carried her down stairs into the kitchen where he sat her on the counter while he grabbed her an ice pack.

"Lets not even worry about who that shit belonged to. That was before you don't got to worry about nobody else"

He grabbed the icepack along with two water bottles and sat it on the counter.

He looked at Charmaine searching for her eyes. Nonetheless she was still beautiful he softly grabbed her face placing kiss after kiss on her lips. She wasn't reluctantly kissing back how she did in the past.

All the physical pain Charmaine was feeling suddenly disappeared when her lips met Kain.

When Charmaine felt herself become hot she took the initiative to put a end to their  kissing.

"Just say it for me"
"Can you ask me one more time"she half smiled.

Kain didn't mind asking her to be his girlfriend. It was worth it.
"Charmaine will you be my lady or what That wasn't a question by the way. You inly got one answer"

They both laughed at Kain persistence.
"Yes"

Excuse my mistakes
