Denise lifted her eyes open and quickly got up to wash her face and she wrapped her hair in a silk scarf, and rubbed some vaseline on her body just like the hood chicks in the movies did. She didn't know much about fighting because she didn't fight much, she was never the type to slap a bitch, but today a bitch was about to get slapped.
Jazmine woke up early today, she didn't want to lie in bed any longer, especially because every time she lay down, she could smell Huey's scent, and it would only make her angry. How could he blame her because he wanted to cheat on his wife.
He was the one that kissed her first, but then again she invited him to bed. What is wrong with me? He's married? Jazmine thought. Married to a gremlin, she thought again. She was furious when he teased her and left her angry, wet, horny, lonely, and sad; she felt so used.
It no longer mattered because he had told her that the kiss was a mistake and that she was not the type to sweat a man. She came down the long stairs wearing a beach hat with some shades, and a turquoise blue bikini top with matching high-rise shorts, and some white flip-flops. She was heading to Huey's gigantic pool, but she wasn't trying to get wet; she wanted to lay in the sun.
Denise confidently walked inside the room Jazmine was staying in and her eyes widened, this bitch was really real-life plastic. The room was filled with designer clothes, shoes, and bags. She had a bunch of makeup and jewelry, everything looked like a Barbie doll house. Why did her room have to be this huge when the regular guest room weren't as big, yeah, Amelia's in trouble because her husband is whipped.
"Where is that plastic bitch?" She shouted loudly, ready to whoop some ass. She was furious about the mall thing, but she was even more furious when she heard loud moans coming from Barbie's bedroom last night. For a second, she thought it was Caesar hitting that again, but she quickly changed her mind when she heard barbie moaning Huey's name. She had got up and walked near the door to heard the bed squeaking, Huey groaning, and kissing sounds. She knew they were fucking, she was about to bust in the room, but she suddenly heard them yelling at each other.
"Exactly, you can't remember me, but you expect me to cheat on my wife for you!"
"Newsflash Huey! you already cheated on your wife when you kissed me!"
Well, I'll never make that huge mistake again!"
"Get out!"
sound of a shoe hitting the floor*
"I was just leaving!"
She heard Huey's footsteps and quickly ran back into her room like a track star. She didn't know if they fucked or not, but she knows they attempt to, and she knew Barbie had everything to do with it.
That bitch!
She thought as she ran downstairs, she looked everywhere for her, then finally spotted her laying in a beach chair with some short ass shorts, some shades, and a big ass beach hat. This diva bitch had the nerve to have her kitten sitting on another beach chair, dressed in a small beach shirt with a small hat on it, only barbie bitches dress their pets.
She walked up to Barbie, who was listening to her iPod and dancing in her seat, this bitch thought she was in a music video. Denise stood in front of Barbie, blocking her sun view.
Jazmine removed her shades because she felt the sun go away, someone was near her and she was right. It was that chick Denise, who looked like she was burning up, her skin looked moist and she was wearing a tight scarf, and she looked like the girls from the movie set it off.
"Can I help you?"Jazmine asked, turning down her volume, sitting up straight.
"No, but you can help your way out of my best friend's husband's bed!" She shouted with her hands on her hips.
"Pardon me?" Jazmine asked, standing up to face Denise. "What do you mean?"
"You know what I mean bitch!!" Denise said, getting all in Jazmine's face. "Stay, away, from, Huey Freeman"
"You shouldn't have stayed away from a toothbrush" Jazmine said, referring to Denise's morning breath. "Would you like a breath mint?"Jazmine asked politely, giving Denise an innocent smile.
"You bitch!"Denise shouted, shoving Jazmine roughly.
'Splash'
Jazmine fell in the deep pool, but good thing she knew how to swim. Denise laughed at her but then suddenly,
'Splash'
Jazmine grabbed her foot making her fall in the pool as well
Amelia looked up at her handsome husband, who had just got out of the shower, he entered the room with nothing but his boxers. He sat down on the bed looking like he was thinking hard, She could still see Jazmine's visible nail marks on his back, she couldn't take it anymore she wanted to know the truth.
"Baby? What happened to your back?' She asked, waiting for his response. He better not say it was Jazmine's kitten.
Huey's shoulders tensed " it was Jazmine" he admitted. He didn't like lying to his wife, it wasn't his nature. He wanted to tell her, but he was struggling to find the words.
Amelia's eyes steamed with tears "you slept with her, didn't you?" Amelia shouted angrily, already knowing the answer.
He exhaled and sighed deeply.
"Answer me!" she screamed.
He turned to her and grabbed her shoulders gently, but she yanked him away.
"I didn't have sex with Jazmine, but I kissed her and we almost did, but I stopped myself," he admitted.
"How could you! For God sakes, I'm having your baby and you get in bed with your slutty ex in our home while I'm sleeping on the other side, waiting for you to come home!" She shouted angrily.
" Baby words can't explain how deeply sorry I am," he said, looking deep into her eyes.
"Do you want to be with her?" Amelia asked, folding her arms. "Are you going to leave me?
Huey sighs deeply, he wanted to be with Jazmine badly, but he didn't want to hurt Amelia anymore. He still loves her, but he didn't love her the way he loves Jazmine. He was about to answer but he heard loud splash sounds coming from his outside pool and he heard screaming, mostly from Jazmine. He quickly threw his pants on and ran out of the room, Amelia followed.
"Oh hell no! she's not going to steal the attention this time," Amelia shouted, following Huey down the stairs.
"Jazmine!" He shouted as he sped to the pool thinking she was drowning.
"What the hell is-" Amelia stopped her sentence when she saw Jazmine And Denise fighting in the pool, well actually Denise was holding on to Jazmine's hair trying to drown her in the water.
She saw Isabella crying, and praying to virgin Mary, and accidentally falling in the water.
Amelia couldn't hold in her laugh; it was just too funny.
"Denise get the fuck off her!" Huey yelled as he jumped inside the pool to save Jazmine, but Jazmine already managed to free herself when she elbowed Denise on her eye.
"Aaaaaaah!" Denise screamed, holding her eye as she got out of the pool.
"Jazmine!" Huey shouted swimming up to Jazmine , who was crying in her hands.
"It's okay" he said softly, trying to calm her down.
"Jazmine?" Huey said, checking her face for bruises.
"No!!" she screamed, swimming away from him.
She got out of the pool, her hair dripping everywhere. She looked at Isabella, who was struggling to get out of the pool and she walked up to her and helped her out.
"Muchas gracias!" Isabella said, catching up breath.
"You're alright Isabella?" Huey asked, sitting the elderly woman down in one of the beach chairs.
"Yes hijo, she said, forgetting that he wasn't her son.
"You can take a break today" he offered her a day off.
"Why thank you, Sir Freeman," Isabella replied.
An angry Denise, who was going to have a black eye due to Jazmine's elbow hit, walked closer to Jazmine, and grabbed her by her hair, and started swinging her fist in Jazmine's face.
"You fucking slut!"she shouted as Jazmine screamed, her scalp burning in pain.
"Get your hands off her!"Huey shouted as he pulled Denise off of Jazmine, who was burning red from the intense hair pull.
Anemia stood there laughing.
"Let her beat that whore's ass," Amelia shouted.
"Denise, you need to leave now!" Huey shouted angrily.
"Oh, why? So you can try to fuck barbie again?!"Denise shouted, pointed at Jazmine, who was still crying in her hands.
"Leave Denise!" Huey demanded.
"Oh hell no! If she has to leave, your whore bitch has to leave too!" Amelia shouted, getting angrier.
Huey sighed deeply and gripped his hair in frustration.
" Now, answer my question? Do you want to be with her because if you do, say goodbye to your son" Amelia threatened with her hand on her hips.
Huey looked at Amelia, she was serious. Now she was threatening to divorce him and take his baby away. Although, he would have good lawyers that will help him get joint custody however, with a sex scandal she could take everything from him.
"Amelia, calm the hell down, I'm not going anywhere" he said, grabbing her hands.
"What about her?" She shouted, pointing to Jazmine.
"There you are Holding her hand I am lost Dying to understand"
What about Jazmine, Huey thought. Deep inside his heart he wanted to tell his wife that he wanted to be with Jazmine, but he couldn't because Amelia was pregnant, and it would break her heart, and he didn't want to hurt Amelia.
She was by his side for all of these years, helping him cope with his heartbreak over Jazmine and making him happy, now that Jazmine's back, he couldn't just leave Amelia stranded, it would be selfish of him.
Without looking at Amelia or Jazmine, Huey made his decision.
Didn't I Cherish you right
Don't you know You were my life
"She doesn't matter anymore because I'm going to stay here with you and the baby" Huey said, his heart ached, Jazmine did matter, she was still his world.
Just cast aside You don't even know I'm alive
You just walk on by Don't care to see me cry
Amelia and Denise smiled widely as Jazmine ran into the house silently crying.
"And here I am Still holding on I can't accept My world is gone"
"Okay baby, I forgive you, just don't you ever in your life hurt me ever again!" Amelia shouted "and you better make it up to me, you're taking me out for the whole day!" She demanded.
Even though I try I can't let go
Something in your eyes
Captured my soul
And every night
I see you in my dreams
You're all I know I can't let go
Huey stood silently thinking of Jazmine. He knew he had hurt her because he knew she was falling for him, but he had to hurt her, so she could move on.
He knew it would be easier for her since she didn't remember him, but it sure as hell wouldn't be easy for him, He'll never stop loving her.
Do you even realize
The sorrow I have inside
Everyday of my life
Do you know the way it feels
When all you have just dies I try and try
To deny that I need you
But still you remain on my mind
"Baby? Did you hear me?"Amelia asked excitedly.
"Huh? Yeah let's get dressed, we can go anywhere you want" he said, faking a smile as he kissed her cheek.
"Aww baby, I love you so much" she said, kissing him on the lips with force.
"Now that's what I'm talking about,"Denise said, clapping her hands. "I'll leave you to love birds alone, I'm going to go home now" she announced.
"You can get cleaned up in the downstairs bathroom, I'll get your stuff from upstairs" Huey said, waking inside, He didn't want her to try to attack Jazmine again.
Jazmine was taking a hot shower. She was washing her hair as she thought of what Huey said,
"She doesn't matter anymore"
He was right she didn't matter, she didn't matter to anyone. She was just something to lust over, she wasn't good enough to ever be loved. Her husband was all she had left, maybe she should just go back home.
She was a whore anyway, so it didn't matter that her husband wanted her to sleep with other men, she was willing to sleep with another man last night, and he is married to that. She was nothing but a home wreck, she saw Amelia's eyes. Amelia was only bitter because she was hurting, she loved Huey. How could she tore their marriage apart, though secretly, she was still in love with Huey Freeman. The hot water was steaming down just like her burning tears, as she remembers the events of Last night.
I remember when I remember,
I remember when I lost my mind.
There was something so pleasant about that place Even your emotions had an echo in so much space Mmm...
Jazmine was weeping laying on the bed that smelled like Huey's scent. She couldn't believe she could be so stupid, why did she try to sleep with a married man. What the hell is wrong with her! She doesn't even know or remember him, why did she feel like her heart was breaking. Was she in love with Huey Freeman? It can't be, you can't fall in love with someone you just met, she thought.
"And when you're out there Without care, yeah, I was out of touch But it wasn't because I didn't know enough I just knew too much"
'Knock'
'Knock'
"Go away Huey" Jazmine shouted, secretly hoping it was him.
"It's not Mr. Freeman, it's the maid," Isabella said softly.
"You may come in," Jazmine said in her squeaky crying voice.
Isabella came inside the room with a cup of warm cinnamon milk.
"I'm so sorry to disturb you Ms. DuBois, but I heard you crying, and I wanted to give you my special warm milk." She said nervously. "When my daughters would cry over a broken heart, I would make them some warm milk, and they would look at me crazy and say "leche madre se supone que es el frío '',Isabella said as Jazmine laughed a little.
"I would say I know it's odd to drink warm milk, pero my abuelita used to tell me that warm milk warms a cold broken heart" Isabella explained as she handed Jazmine the cup of warm milk.
"Thank you" Jazmine said politely, wiping her tears, then grabbing the cup of milk.
"You're welcome, I hope your heart feels better" Isabella said, walking away. "Oh yes, I almost forgot," Isabella said, pulling out a small envelope. "Hopefully you can find out why your heart is hurting for him," she said, placing the envelope on Jazmine's bed.
"buenas noches" she said as she walked away. Jazmine took a sip of Isabella's cinnamon warm milk that made her smile, it was so delicious she thought. She placed the cup down on the table by her bed and glanced at the envelope.
"Hmm, I wonder" Jazmine said, curiously grabbing the envelope, opening it gently.
Inside was a small note that read : A picture is not just worth a thousand words, but also worth a billion memories
"What does that even mean?"Jazmine said as she reached inside the note to reveal a small picture. Her eyes widened and she gasped loudly as she noticed the picture of Herself and Huey as teens.
Our love what we once treasured
Your ways what I remember most of all
Can't quite get away from the days we love
so heavenly Your kiss such a sweet surrender
That day when I let my temper get the best of what we used to have
Now I got to ask you can you make it
His deep maroon eyes that made her shiver inside. His soft big Afro and his muscular body. The way he would raise his brow out of disbelief. The long lectures he would make when he wanted to educate someone on their ignorance and lack of awareness. She missed it all, but she knew deep inside she would never see him again.
"I, I love you, Jazmine DuBois. I can't explain why I feel this way, at first I thought it would fade away but it only got stronger. I hate that I love you so much, it kills me because I never wanted to be in love. I never wanted to love someone more than I ever loved my parents, than it would hurt too much. If I ever lose" he exhaled deeply as he continued.
Like it used to be Bring back your love to me
I remember when our love was new
And all I needed in my life was you
And baby it felt so right to me
Please make it like it used to be
"Jazmine, what I'm trying to convey to you is that I'm madly in love with you and I would like to ask if you would be my girlfriend? She smiled as she looked deep into his eyes.
"I love you too Huey, I've been in love with you since the day I met you. I never thought you would ever say those words to me and this is the happiest moment of my life." She confessed with tears rolling down her eyes.
:
"I'm really sorry Jazmine" Huey said as he kissed her forehead "I'm sorry" he repeated.
Jazmine gave him a sweet smile that sent shivers down his spine. she forgave him, how could she not.
She anxiously glanced at the bag of M . He smirked and dropped the candy on her lap.
"Here is your bag of diabetes" he rolled his eyes.
she giggled and blushed as he wrapped the blanket around her small body.
" Look I'm only sorry for scaring you, But I'm not sorry for beating the shit out that bastard". he gritted his teeth.
She kissed his arm to calm him down. "I know baby, I was just scared I would lose you" She admitted.
"Jazmine, you will never lose me because no matter what happens, I will never leave you."
:
"How could you sleep with him? My best friend! MY FUCKING BEST FRIEND!" Huey shouted, slamming her back roughly against the oak tree, then he removed his grip from her and began pacing back and forth angrily.
Ohhh, don't wanna lose your love
And I can't stand to lose your touch
Ohhh, I can still remember
when our love was strong
But I don't know where we went wrong
"It was a mistake! Huey please, don't leave me I love yo-"
"The only mistake is us, We're Over" he said roughly.
"Huey please, " she sobbed. "Im so sorry "
"Stay the FUCK away from me, you whore!" Huey snapped, walking away from teenage Jazmine who was on the ground crying her eyes out.
:
She ran upstairs to her bedroom looking through her closet, which hid a small wooden box. She unlocked the box with her secret key and inside was a picture of her and Huey.
Her tiny arms were wrapped around his neck and she was on his back. He was slightly smiling while her long curly hair tickled his arm. She looked at the picture for a while, then she placed the picture under her pillow and laid her head down on the pillow.
She reached over to the small table and grabbed her pills and placed a handful in her mouth and swallowed the bottle of whiskey she had abandoned hours ago. she blinked her eyes rapidly and soon went off to a deep sleep.
she wanted to dream of him like she always did, Huey freeman The one that got away.
..
Jazmine's eyes were soaking with tears. She remembered everything about her and Huey, and most importantly, she remembers her betrayal. She cheated on Huey then kissed Ceaser in his home, and even after hurting him twice, he still saves her life and protects her. She didn't deserve someone as good as him, Amelia was a better choice.
Jazmine hopped out of the shower and sat down on her vanity to work on her wet curly hair that would soon frizz up if she didn't moisturize it soon. She thought about what happened this morning. She wanted to tell Huey that she remembers him, but she decided that it was better to keep it to herself.
It didn't matter if she remembers, he made his decision to stay with Amelia, and made it known that he didn't want anything to do with her. She was just a moment from his past, he just missed her that's why he kissed her, other than that, she was just his cheating ex girlfriend, she didn't stand a chance.
:
Huey gathered Denise's belongings and was heading downstairs, he passed Jazmine's door.
He stood near her door debating if he should go inside there to talk to her, but he knew there was nothing else to talk about, so he had made the decision to stay with Amelia.
Isabella watched as Jazmine walked slowly down the stairs. She had on some grey yoga pants with a white kitty crop shirt and her hair was in a Messy bun with two strands hanging out, and she was makeup free. Isabella thought she looked amazing even when she wasn't trying.
Isabella looked down nervously as Jazmine came closer to her, expecting Jazmine to yell at her for staring just like Amelia always did.
"Hola, como estas?" Jazmine said in an excellent Spanish accent, she giggled and reached out her hand.
"I'm Jazmine DuBois, but you can call me Jazmine" she said politely"I know you already know my name, but I just felt it was time to properly introduce myself.
Isabella was shocked no one other than Huey Freeman spoke to her in such a kind manner, they would always ignore her presence, but now she was speechless.
"por favor, digame su nombre?"Jazmine spoke again.
"mi llamo es Isabella García"Isabella said excitedly that someone other than Huey knows Spanish. She shook Jazmine's hand.
"Encantada de conocerte" Jazmine said, giving her a sweet smile.
"igualmente jazmín" isabella replied in her deep Spanish accent.
They two giggled loudly as Amelia came walking down the stairs with a beautiful lavender silk dress on exposing her huge belly and her curves. Her hair was out of her natural crochet braids, she had on light makeup, as always, she looked stunning.
"Aww looks like the maid made a friend" Amelia said, laughing as she flipped her hair. "Baby! Hurry up! We'll be late for our romantic date" she said slowly, trying to tease Jazmine.
"Oh. my husband is going to take me to this awesome place in Manhattan" she bragged.
"Mrs. Freeman, I hope you and Mr. Freeman enjoy yourselves," Isabella said, happy that Amelia will be in another state.
"Oh, we will definitely have fun won't we Huey?" She said as Huey finally made his way downstairs. He glanced at Jazmine who instantly turned away.
Once again we sit in silence
After all is said and done
"Yes, of course," he said, still staring at Jazmine.
"Ahem! Can we go now" Amelia said, noticing Huey's staring at Jazmine, who was pretending to look for something on the floor.
Too far apart to bridge the distance
But something keeps us hanging on and on
Pretending not to know the difference
Denying what we had is gone
That bitch knows what she's doing bending down like that, Amelia thought, referring to Jazmine's over exposed ass in those too tight yoga pants.
"Oh yeah, after you" Huey said, letting Amelia walk ahead of him.
He passed by Jazmine who was looking down, ignoring the fact that he was still staring at her.
"It's just breaking me down I know we swore it was forever But it hurts too much to stay around"
Huey felt a lump in his heart, he didn't like Jazmine ignoring him, it was hurting his soul.
"Baby! Let's go" Amelia shouted, getting impatient.
I don't wanna cry
Don't wanna cry
Nothing in the world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
Though I've given you my heart and soul
I must find a way of letting go '
Cause baby I don't wanna cry
Huey took one last look of Jazmine, who was looking the other direction, then turned away to leave.
Jazmine could finally breathe now that Huey and Amelia were gone, she couldn't bear to look at them anymore. She wanted to cry, but at the same time, she didn't want to cry anymore, she was tired of crying.
Cause baby,
I don't wanna cry
"Que pasa Jazmine? Isabella said, rubbing her back.
"Nada"she replied and took a deep breath, then looked up at Isabella, and smiled widely.
"Come, let's have some fun!" she shouted excitedly, pulling Isabella's arm upstairs
