《Charisma》~ thirteen ~

"HEY BIGHEA- oh" I said, I was confused on why I saw Kayla touching an irritated August.
"What are you doing here, Kayla?" I asked.
"You didn't tell me you had a boyfriend. And that boyfriend happened to be my old fuck buddy" Kayla smirked at me.
"Kayla, what I do has nothing to do with you. Don't try that, when you disappeared for months" I said, folding my arms.
I'm convinced the Kayla I knew, wasn't the Kayla I knew. She seemed more, messy. Hell she was kind of built messy.
"We already talked about this Charisma" She said, August shoved her and she stumbled, as he walked over to where I was standing. He grabbed the bags from me. But I wasn't even paying attention.
"Kayla get on outta hea'. You been on some bullshit since you stepped foot in hea'." August dismissed her.
"Whatever. " She chuckled.
Fake?
"You can't call nobody fake honey. Have you looked at your body" I said, cocking my to the side.
She rolled her eyes hard and walked over, shoving my shoulder hard. I chuckled at her. I wasn't gone fight her I don't have time for no childish ass bitch.
"Oh and Kayla, your butt implant is kind of leaned" I said behind her.
"Shawty say it's all hers, why the thighs don't match" August snickered from behind me, quoting Cardi B.
I busted out laughing at him. He was dumb.
"I can't stand that bitch now" August said.
I shrugged. "Fake ass"
"Literally" August said. "Dang I could tell you upset. You'on even cuss like dat'."
"Yeah I know" I said, going in the Walmart bag and pulling out some things I bought.
"Here August" I said, pulling out a small little box.
"Whats dis'?" He asked, opening it.

He pulled it out, and his mouth dropped open in awe.
"You really got this for me?" He asked.
"Of course. It's just something to say I appreciate you. A lot" I shrugged, smiling because I knew he would love it.
He put on the chain, which had a picture of his late brother Mel.
I knew he missed him, and he doesn't talk about him a lot. But with the help of Chandra, I went to the jewelers, and got a picture of him customized into the chain.
"Thank you so much ma" He picked me up and spun me around.
"No problem" I chuckled.
He pressed his lips against mine, and I wrapped my arms around his neck, deepening the kiss.

"Ouu girl, I should've came with you, she coulda caught this fade" Kai sighed.
"Yeah these hands rated E for Everybody" Tiana added in.
"I'm not finna fight her. She ain't even worth it y'all" I chuckled. I explained the whole situation on Kayla.
"But dang y'all was bestfriends for seven years 'Risma" Kai sighed.
"Yeah, but people change, I wasn't really messing her like that when just up and left." I shrugged
"Girl I still would've fought her. Idc" Kai said, sipping her smoothie.
"Ight lil Tyson" I chuckled.
We walked around the mall, just looking around. It was a beautiful day. August has been swamped with work, so we haven't been seeing each other as much.
"Dammit" I dropped my bags. My clumsy self always dropping something.
"Here you go" Someone handed me my stuff.
"Oh thank you- Harrison?" I said.
"Charisma?" He chuckled. He was my ex from highschool. We didn't work out because of him cheating. I forgave him. But I wouldn't take him back.
"How have you been?" He asked.

"I've been good. I do hair and stuff now. So I can't complain" I smiled, leaving out me being homeless and all the stuff with my mom.
"That's good. I own my own little car shop" He smiled.
"That's cool. You always been into cars" I chuckled.
"Yeah" He gave me the familiar goofy smile.
August. You have August.
"Okay well I have to go on now. See you around"
I gave him a brief smile, and headed back to Kai and Tiana, who where looking at nothing in particular.
"Y'all so nosey" I chuckled.
"Girl he was fine as bell though. Who is that?" Kai asked, peering over her shades.
"My ex" I shrugged.
"Ex? Ouu you got good taste in men" Tiana said.
"Exactly" Kai replied.
"But ouuu I'm telling Aug" Kai joked.
"It ain't nothing to tell" I playfully rolled my eyes.
"Don't look now. But he over there checking you out." Tiana looked past me.
I turned around, and sure enough he was looking.
I squinted at him. I held up my hands, silently asking him what he was looking at.
He chuckled and shook his head, walking off.
Weirdo.
We finished up our shopping and headed to Kai's house. We decided to just have a girls day.
"Girl Imma need you to do my hair for this date" Tiana said, stretching one of her curls.
"I got ya" I winked.
"Guys I'm pregnant" Kai blurted out.
I didn't really pay no attention to what she said, but when I realized it. I nearly hollered.
"Girl fr!?!" I yelled, excitedly.
"Yeah, I'm like 3 weeks" She smiled weakly.
Tiana was jumping up and down. "Girl I'm so happy for you" She smiled.
We all hugged.
"Did you tell Chris yet?"
"Tell me what?" He asked, walking through the door.

Quantum Worlds (A LitRPG dark fantasy)
Find the missing VIP in an illegal game world. Kill the monsters. Return home for the paycheck. Decorated Marine commander, Damon Williams, never thought his latest mission would take place in a full-immersion world fighting monsters… but when a high-value VIP disappears after being stealthily transported to a banned MMORPG, he's their only hope. Damon must lead a group of rescuers into an unforgiving world infested with terrifying monsters and worse. Pain is real. Death is permanent. He and his crew must adapt quickly, trust each other, and fight to survive. And if all that's not bad enough, they'll also have to race against time to avoid the realm’s disintegration and mutation effects. Quantum Worlds features race and class designations, unique creatures, dungeon crawling, level progression and Easter eggs that reference video games and pop culture. This a dark fantasy, but it also has sprinklings of humor throughout. It is a multi-cast, multi-pov story. In many ways, it is a melding of one of my favorite novels, “The Stand”, with my favourite genre, LitRPG. I don’t espouse to be anywhere near Stephen King, but I would like to think that I have succeeded in many areas here (you’ll be the judge of that). So, this thriller-style story has a lot of build-up and lots of drama. When it hits the 100-page mark, it starts to take off with some intense action and fight scenes (although there are battles long before that). Nothing comes easy for this group of rescuers. And the dangers are very real. This saga is already over 100 chapters with more to come. I hope you enjoy it and look forward to your reviews, comments, and feedback. Thanks. Chapters are uploaded every day at noon ET. Please do not repost this work anywhere without my written permission. Quantum Worlds is a participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.
