Micah didn’t like the fact Sasha carried herself like a groupie. He knew Sasha couldn’t be anything more, when she sucked his dick the same night at the charity event. Micah flew back to California and hadn’t thought anything of Sasha until she started dating his cousin.
One night two months after she met Micah, Sasha was in the club drinking straight out the bottle and standing on the couch in VIP alone when Donovan came up and introduced himself to her. He was cute. 5’7 light skin, dark brown slanted eyes with black hair that was cut into a curly fro. The two started dating but all Sasha thought about was Micah. However, she was head over heels in love with Donovan’s wallet. Donovan bought her bags, clothes and she drove his numerous cars. Donavan had finally gave the Sasha the title she wanted: WIFEY. Men never gave Sasha a label, they just preferred to her as their friend or home girl. But they never gave her the label she wanted to proudly wear. Sasha had finally semi-forgot about Micah until he came walking back in her life. In reality, Donovan’s house.
One morning Sasha was at Donovan’s house cooking and cleaning, when Donovan came in from the gym. Not thinking twice, she greeted him at the door with a huge sloppy kiss. Micah came in right behind him and Sasha’s words were stuck in her throat. Donovan introduced her as wifey to his cousin while Micah played it cool like it was his first time meeting Sasha. Sasha was shaking and dying slowly inside. She had no choice but to stay with Donovan now that Micah has seen her with him. The pie came crumbling down when Micah revealed to Donovan what she did to him. Since that day, Donovan treated her differently.
Now a year later Sasha was sitting in Donovan’s closet and no ring on her finger. Donovan was a good man but she didn’t understand why he didn’t propose to her or why she hadn’t met his family yet. They went to parties and he introduced her as wifey but she didn’t have a ring. A wife gets a ring, house and family while all a wifey gets is hard dick and unanswered calls.
“Yo , Sasha I don’t know what you tripping for today but when I come home tonight my house better be in one piece,” Donovan yelled upstairs and left. He had become tired of Sasha’s bizarre behavior. He recommended to pay for treatment but each time she refused. Sasha came out the closet and walked into the bedroom. She took his crystal lamp and smashed it on the hardwood floor.
“ Don’t fucking tell me what to do. This house should be ours not yours.” She screamed to no one in particular. She got undressed, took a shower and climbed in bed. Sasha had two things on her mind: Minka and her engagement to Micah and how she was going to break them up. Sasha snuggled into the warm comforter with a smile on her face. She got her best scandalous ideas during sleep.
Chapter Fourteen
Milan sat in her dorm on Facebook, trying to come to terms with how her mother disposed of her like a dirty diaper. Milan had moved into her dorm and Minka furnished her side of the dorm in nice furniture and expensive decorations. Her roommate’s name was Shay and she was from Compton. Milan connected with her right away. She always felt she was born in the wrong “C.”
Shay was majoring in business and planned on opening her own store one day. Milan had the opposite goals . She just wanted to get Minka off her back so she majored in biology, even though she had no interest in it at all. It was Monday night and Milan was bored. Minka was home however she didn’t feel like hanging with her.
“Where you going , Shay?” Milan asked.
“To the studio . My babe is there recording his mixtape.” Shay slipped on Milan’s black dress.
“Do you mind if I tag along with you ? I really don’t wanna be alone.”
“ Gurl, quit that ‘may I’ shit.
