I’m grumpy. You wanna know why I’m grumpy? Well, let just say that I haven’t forgiven Max. I’m still pissed at him for what he did. That ass knew it was my birthday and he spoilt it for me by bring along that bimbo. Anyway, I’d like to say that that’s the only reason I’m grumpy, but it isn’t. I have to go to school today. Ugh! I really do hate that place. Who was the smart ass, who came up with the idea of going to school in the first place? That person is lucky they ass is dead, cause if they weren’t I’d have kill them. Idiots!

================================

I really ain’t looking forward to this place today, too many bitches and dicks in one place. I miss my solitude, I miss the days when these pea brain idiots would jump out of my way, just not to touch me. Now I’m somewhat of a celebrity, all because I’m dating Richie. Bitches be acting crazy up in this place. Telling me, I stole their man. I mean, really hoe, really? Pray tell, how I came to steal yo man? Yo trifling ass ain’t even know the nigga. His white ass spent two weeks in this god forsaken place and all his ass did was follow my ass around. So how in god’s name did I steal him from you?

I’m about to approach my first class when I’m grabbed around the waist. I scream and turned to see who it is. To my surprise it’s not Richie, it’s one of the guys who used to pick on me. What the hell does this fool want?

“So you think yo ass is too fine to date yo own kind?”

Tavis Douglas said. He’s the school biggest idiot and sort after by almost all the girl. I’ve heard girls calling him, the finest of dark chocolate, strong delicious black coffee and a lot of erotic things not worth mentioning. If you ask me, I don’t see the appeal. Sure he good looking, in a Shrek looking kinda of a way. Enough said about his looks because I ain’t give a shit if this lopsided dick looked like prince charming. Who told his gorilla looking ass he can touch me?

“Tavis, get yo diseased infested hand off of me, before I slap you back into last week where you left yo manners.”

This nigga is looking at me like I said something funny. Remember when I told y'all I had three boyfriends before and they taught me how to fight? Well, y’all bout to see my ass in action if the shit for brain fool don’t take his dirty hands off of me.

“Do you know who I am? Nobody dares talks to me like that! I’m Tavis hoe, know yo place or Imma have to show you what a real man feels like. One time with me and you gonna forget that bitch ass, white fool.”

He grabbed my butt to drive his point home. Oh hell no! This jackass done mess with the wrong girl. Imma have to teach his ass how to respect a woman!

“Nigga if you don’t get yo hand off of my ass in the next 5 seconds you ain’t gonna be able to have children.”

The fool laughed and grabbed my ass harder. Well y’all heard me warning his dumbass. I used my fingers and poke him in the eyes causing him to cuss and let go of me. Now that I'm free, I use the heel of my palm to strike him under his nose. This cause him to cry out in pain. I could leave him and go on my way, but the fool done piss me off.

He grabbed my hand as I’m about to punch his ass out, but like I said, I had three street fighter boyfriends. I raise my foot and kick the side of his knee. He lets go of my hand screaming out from the pain. Oh, I’m not done yet! I grab his shoulders and lift my foot, kneeing him in his jewels. He immediately grabbed his dick and curled up on the ground like a baby. I think I render him speechless, literally. Because he’s not making a sound, he’s just on the ground holding his boys.

I turn, ready to go about my business. However, I was surprised to see almost all the students in the school looking at me like I just dropped from space. What the hell is up with all these dumbasses?

“What the hell are y’all looking at? Ain’t y’all ever seen a girl kick ass before?”

I rolled my eyes and continued on my way. I didn’t make it very far before I heard Principal McGee.

“Miss Gibbs, I’d like to see you in my office right this instance!”

Great! Now I have to deal with thunder balls. Can this day get any worse?

I followed thunder balls to her office, ignoring all the looks that were coming my way. Nothing I’m not use to anyway. She moves into her seat behind one big ass oak desk. I’m telling y’all this desk took up half the room, there was barely enough place for anyone to walk. I took a seat in the chair in front of the desk and waited until thunder balls thought she looked intimidating enough.

“Well, Miss Gibbs, what have you got to say for yourself? Care to explain why you just attack a defenceless student?”

Defenceless my ass! Did she not see his King Kong looking ass groping me up? That nigga got what he deserved. He’s lucky I left his ass alive, fools have been killed for less.

“With all due respect Principal McGee, I whooped his ass because he was manhandling me. I was just defending myself Sir. I mean ma’am!”

She sat back in her seat and folded her arms, giving me a stern look.

“Regardless of the cause, you had no right to retaliate in that manner. Because of the inappropriate way you behave today, I have no choice but to suspend you for two weeks, effective immediately.”

What! Finals are in a week, if I don’t get to do my finals then that means I ain’t gonna get to graduate! This can’t be happening to me. Not now, not after all the hard work I’ve done to get this far.

“Principal McGee finals are next week! If I don’t do my finals I won’t be able to graduate.”

The old hag just pushed her glasses up her nose and stared at me like I just committed murder.

“Well, Miss Gibbs, you should have thought about that before you decided to commit your violent act.”

--------------====================------------------=======================------------

“She suspended you for defending yourself?”

I’m curled up in bed with Richie, crying my eyes out. I don’t cry a lot for things, but this is something big. So I’m crying. Richie is trying to make me feel better, but nothing is working. I’ve worked hard all my life to get where I am today, and to have it all taken away from me in a split second, cuts pretty deep.

“Yeah. Apparently I was supposed to let myself get feel up my wreck it Ralph and not defend myself.”

I am so busy wallowing in my pity that I didn’t see the look on Richie’s face.

“That dumbass touch you?!”

It’s cute that he’s concern. He’s my boyfriend and I love him, but Imma have to be real here. His lanky looking ass will get beaten to a pulp if he tries to play hero.

“He did but I took care of it. His dick will be incapacitated for a while.”

Richie chuckled and I so did I. He smiled then moved my hair away from my face. Just as his lips descended on mine, my phone rang. I wanted to ignore it and just continue letting Richie kiss me, but it just kept on ringing. I break away from the kiss and answer my phone without looking at the screen.

“Hello.”

“Hey baby girl, please don’t hang up!”

I sat up on the bed when I heard Max’s voice. I can tell that Richie heard it too because his entire demeanour changed. I’m glad to hear Max’s voice because I do miss him. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still pissed at his ass and he’s got a lot of work to do before he can get back in my good book. However, he’s my only friend apart from Richie and I miss having him around. But I ain’t gonna make it easy on him.

“What do you want Max? Is there another one of Richie’s ex that you’d like to drop on me?”

I heard him curse through the phone.

“I deserve that and I’m sorry. You can’t keep me out of your life forever. Please let me make it up to you? Why don’t you let me take you over to Daddy’s Burger and get you the house special you love so much?”

I smile. He knows how much I love Daddy’s burger. There is just nowhere else in the world that makes better burgers. That place is the shit!

“Ok, but I’m still mad at yo dumbass. I’ll meet you there in two hours don’t be late or yo ass is buying me dinner as well.”

He chuckled. “I ain’t gonna be late lil mama. You just bring yo fine ass over and Imma show you a good time.”

I rolled my eyes laughing.

“Yo ass be tripping sometimes Max. I’ll meet you there.”

I hang up the phone then turn to see Richie looking at me. What the hell is his problem? Yeah ok, I know Max is not his favourite person at the moment but that doesn’t mean that I have to say mad at Max too.

“What?”

I asked. He just shakes his head and threw this hands in the air. He starts grabbing stuff from about the room without saying a word. He then opened the bedroom and walked out. I got up from the bed and follow him, calling his name.

“Richie! Richie!”

He’s ignoring me. Why is he ignoring me? This ain’t like him at all, he’s never ignored me before. He grabbed his coat and his cars keys and walked out of the house. I followed him out and pulled on his hand to get his attention. He turn to look at me with a sad look in his eyes. He pulled me close, kissed me on the lips then the side of my head.

“Don’t wait up for me Mel. Have fun with Max, I love you.”

He turn, got in his car and drove away. I watch the car drove off. I’m very confused. What was that all about? What did I do?
