Episode 3

Love is beautiful, but I don't want to feel this shit for anyone else. The next time I feel butterflies in my stomach, I'll drink water and drown them. It hurts me inside to be cold, but I do it to protect myself, knowing I have the most loving and gentle soul in the world. I should have stuck with that thought and not gotten into another relationship.

My life as a teenager and child was perfect. I was raised by my grandparents while my parents went to work to give a comfortable life to me and my two brothers, William and Taylor. William is the oldest, Taylor the middle child, and I'm the youngest. There are three years between each of us.

My brothers are wonderful, protective, and they beat up my second-to-last boyfriend so badly he ended up in the hospital after they caught him cheating on me. But today I discovered I wasn't born for relationships.

I left work early; I spend my day at a call center transferring calls to specific departments. But luckily for me, there was a server outage and everyone was let off early.

So I thought: I'll pay Erick a visit, he must be missing me since we didn't sleep together over the weekend because I had my period. I'm in the elevator and when I get out on Erick's floor, I pass by a lady who is normally very friendly, but this time she looks at me strangely and lowers her head.

I keep walking with a smile on my face until I start hearing screams and moans—wow, someone in one of these apartments is having the best sex of their life. I keep walking, until I stop in front of Erick's apartment and the sound gets louder.

I look at the door of the apartment across the hall and I swear if those screams and moans aren't coming from there, I'm going to freak out. I look at the numbered keypad and type in the code to open the door. As soon as it unlocks, I open it and follow the small hallway that leads to the living room.

There are clothes on the floor, shoes, and a mess in the living room, but what catches my attention is the naked couple on the couch. The woman has her face pressed against the sofa upholstery while her ass is all the way up, being fucked by my boyfriend who hasn't noticed my presence.

I hadn't recognized the woman whose hair was covering her face until she moved it to breathe, and I can hardly believe who it is.

"Agatha, thank you, you really did keep an eye on Erick for me. But did you have to use your body too?"

I ask, and Erick looks at me, startled, moving away from her, making me feel disgusted by him with his dirty dick. I guess he wasn't expecting this to happen.

"Sam, it's not what you're thinking, I…"

"And what am I thinking, Erick?"

"Sam, it was just this once, I swear to you! I didn't want to, but she took off her clothes and started groping me, and before I knew it, she was sucking me off. Honey, forgive me, please."

"Erick, we've been sleeping together for three months, I came to tell you I'm pregnant, and you tell her it was only today?"

"You what?" we asked together.

"You know what, unhappiness to the new couple. May you be unhappy forever."

When I turn to leave, I feel a hand grip my arm firmly and pull me, throwing my body against the wall. Erick kneels after that and holds my legs, preventing me from walking.

"Sam, please, I messed up with you, but I don't want to break up. She's lying, there's no way she's pregnant, we used condoms."

"Really? Then why is your dick dirty with shit?"

He looks at his dick and then at Agatha, who is sitting with her legs crossed, waving a drugstore pregnancy test in her hand.

"Are you going to keep denying my pregnancy, Erick? We never used anything because you always say I'm hotter and tighter than her."

I hit him in the face with my knee and ran off. Even in pain, he keeps shouting my name. I see him crawling out of the apartment, still naked, with blood on his face, yelling my name. I press the elevator button several times until the door closes.

After I get into the car I called through the app, I feel the weight of everything that happened. Erick starts calling me and bombarding me with messages, and I block him. I go into my friends' group chat and leave without saying anything, then I block Agatha too.

Soon I get messages from the girls wanting to know why I left the group, and when I tell them, I'm added back, and they tell me Agatha was removed.

"“Girls, please, I need a drink, who's in?”"

They all say okay, and I arrange to meet them at our usual bar. I change the Uber's route, and it heads to the bar. When I get there, Nala immediately hugs me.

"I always told you guys I didn't like Agatha," she says.

"Alright, Nala. Next time we'll listen to you and won't add anyone else to our group," Aysra says.

"But why did that bitch do this to you?" Mariah asks.

"It was my fault… She offered to keep an eye on him for me because she lives in the same building, and the fool here agreed."

"Enough, let's not talk about this anymore. How about a Dark Romance party to unwind?" Nala asks excitedly.

"We're in," the girls say together.

"I don't know, I think I'd rather drink and go home."

"Sam, you're not going to stay home suffering when there are hot, possessive men waiting for us at a party that promises to be good."

Nala doesn't give up; she takes me to her place while the others go to theirs. She dresses me up like a doll: red lipstick, eyeliner, a black V-neck dress, a black leather jacket, and black ankle boots too. A very Dark look.

In the end, we found out only the two of us would be going; the others had to change their plans at the last minute. What does tonight have in store for me?
