everything that I needed to know, so come get your shit ’cause I’m done.” McKinley pressed the End button.
     
    As soon as she hung up Jamil called her right back, but she didn’t even bother to pick up.
     
    “ You gon’ be okay, friend?” Kristen asked concerned.
     
    “ I will be once I get his ass out of my life. Look, let me go back up to my apartment. I’m sure he’s on his way over there.”
     
    “ Okay.” Kristen hopped down from the counter. “Call me if you need me.”
     
    “ I will.” McKinley left out and boarded the elevator.
     
    By the time she reached her apartment Jamil had called her over ten times. On a mission to rid herself of him, McKinley stormed into her place and began collecting all of his things. She’d successfully thrown his underwear and socks and half of his clothes down the stairs when he came walking through the door.
     
    “ McKinley,” he called out for her.
     
    “ I don’t wanna hear shit you got to say, Jamil. Just get your shit and go.” She threw one of his coats over the rail.
     
    “ Have you lost yo’ mind? Stop throwing my shit,” he yelled from the first floor.
“Fuck you,” McKinley shouted back.
     
    “ Yo, will you let me explain?” He dodged a boot that was being thrown at his head then ran up the steps.
     
    “ Explain what? That you’re a fuckin’ lyin’ ass piece of shit? I can’t believe you’ve been cheating on me again. Here I was thinkin’ we were doing better, but no, you don’t give a fuck about me. You gon’ continue to do you.”
     
    “ I’m tellin’ you I didn’t cheat on you.” Jamil got into her face and held her by the arms.
     
    “ Let me go, Jamil.” McKinley closed her eyes.
“No. Not until you listen to me.”
     
    “ I don’t wanna hear shit you got to say. All I wanna see is your back walking out the door, straight up.”
     
    “ So you not gon’ let me tell you what happened?”
     
    “ What about “I’m done fuckin’ wit you” don’t you understand? It’s over. Just get your shit and go.”
     
    “ That’s really how you feel?” Jamil said, taken aback by her persistence.
     
    “ Yeah.”
“Well, fuck you then.” He let her go.
     
    “ Fuck me?” McKinley’s eyes grew wide. “Fuck me?” Her lips trembled.
     
    “ Nigga, fuck you,” she spat as he walked down the steps and out the door.

    Around ten o’clock that night McKinley sat in bed watching the Showtime hit Shameless . She had a bowl of buttered popcorn and a Mountain Dew slush to wash it down. She’d fully made it up in her mind that she and Jamil were done for good. She’d had enough of being tortured by his lies. It was time for her to take a cue from Kristen and the singer Fantasia and start doing her.
     
    If she was going to be miserable then she’d much rather be miserable by herself. Laughing, she reached inside the bowl and pulled out a handful of popcorn when she received a text message from Jamil. McKinley rolled her eyes and viewed it.

    “ You’re sorry all right.” She erased the message and threw her phone down.
     
     
     
    A few minutes later he sent her another message.
     
    From: Jamil
     
    Baby, please 4give me. You know I can’t live without u.

    McKinley erased the message and continued to ignore him when he sent another message.
     
    From: Jamil

    McKinley inhaled deeply. She couldn’t front, she liked to see Jamil beg. It made her feel like she was the one in charge. Plus, she’d wanted to hear from him anyway. It would’ve killed her if he hadn’t tried reaching out to her, so she texted him back and
