chris was a dealer and you were his girlfriend, you hated that he sold drugs but there was nothing you could do to stop him. you were busy with work just like he was busy with selling, you guys didnβt spend as much time with each other like you used to. He sat there on the edge of the bed counting the money he had made from selling today, while you were laying on the bed watching stupid videos on your phone that didnβt even make you laugh. You looked over at him, admiring how quiet he looked. βWhatβd you do today while I was gone?β He spoke up in a soft tone while still counting his money
βUhhβ¦ nothing really I guess, just came home from work and got ready for bedβ you said setting your phone down on the nightstand.
There was an awkward silence that made you slightly uncomfortable as you sat up looking around the room nervously for whatever stupid reason until he spoke up again
βyou know I love you right, ma?β¦β he said putting the money in stacks not even looking at you
you took a deep breath before opening your mouth to speak βyes Chris, I know you love me.β
you watched him as he continued stacking the money, making sure it was nice and neat before putting some of it into a black bag
why did he say that all of a sudden?..
