Page 7 of Cove City, Volume II

My eyes opened to the bright sun beaming into the room.

I had been lying in the bed Zeus and I had made love in so many times over the past two days.

I knew I couldn’t lie here forever, and the thought of even leaving his house made me sick.

I dragged myself from the bed and stood in the middle of the room.

I glanced down at my hand, where the perfect engagement ring sat.

I missed him and the fact that I didn’t know why the fuck he shut me out, had started as sadness but was beginning to turn into anger.

I stood there as my eyes bounced on everything in the room, and I lost it.

I began screaming.

I screamed from sadness, loneliness, for every time I opened my legs to his ass, for the love I shared and even the trauma I let rest on my shoulders.

I swiped everything off the dresser, pulled the sheets from the bed and used my fist to put holes in his fucking walls.

Zeus had me fucked up.

I had given him too much of myself to let his ass walk away happy while I suffered.

“Sasha!.

“I heard someone scream my name.

I quickly stopped as I turned to look and saw no one.

“What the fuck are you doing? Get the fuck out my house!”

It was Zeus. My eyes frantically bounced all over the room until I realized the picture he had of me on his wall had a small red light blinking in my eye. “Zeus?.

“I said as I walked in front of it.

“What?”

“Why are you doing this? Why?.

“I shouted.

I could hear him breathing heavily.

“Go to that nigga cause your home is not here.”

I didn’t know what he was talking about; it only made me more upset.

“Zeus you are my nigga.”

“No!.

“he roared.

“Your nigga is the one you let hold you and stroke your face in that fucking shop! I told you, one time that’s it.”

Now it made sense. He saw Pierre and me and took it out of context. Then I thought about the call, and he was there all along.

“Listen to me. It was not what you think.”

“I needed you. I called you and I saw you. Get. The. Fuck. Out!”

The red light shut off. “Zeus!.

“I shouted. “Zeus!”

I could not believe this shit was happening.

He wouldn’t even allow me to explain.

I was losing my mind, and I could feel myself turning into a woman I didn’t want to be.

I stormed out of the room and then the house.

I hopped on my bike and took off.

Zeus had taken my heart with him and left me all alone over a fucking assumption.

I knew he had shit going on with Dio, but now he had to deal with me as well. If he thought this shit was over, he had me mistaken.
