Deja: *watches Ayana following Nicole in the house then starts tearing up* S-Steve I-
Steve: This is what you was on? For me to leave so I wouldnāt find out that you went to see him?
Deja: *turns around towards him* Steve. Please let me explain.
Steve: Aight. Explain then.
Deja: I-I... *sighs then starts looking around*
Steve: *arches eyebrow then nods a bit* Remember? How I told you not to go see him specifically? And now you still did?
Deja: *closes eyes* What else was I suppose to do? Huh?! *opens eyes then looks at Steve* Why am I the bad person out of this situation? What, was I suppose to let her get beat up to death and-
Steve: Donāt come to me with that shit Dee! Man you looked me in my eyes and promised you wouldnāt go there. *pauses looking at Deja* You went alone didnāt you? *watches Deja look away while rolling her eyes. Scoffs* I canāt believe this.
Deja: If you would at least have the decency to put yourself in my shoes Steve. Canāt you see what Iām going through?!
Steve: Decency? You wanna talk about having decency? *steps closer to Deja* I lost my cousin to this shit cause he tried to do the right thing too. I lost my cousin Dej... cause my brother was in the game and he wouldnāt give two fucks for anything. We tried everything and nothing worked until my cousin stepped in. *raises hands for a moment then drops* Is that the decency you were looking for?
Deja: *shakes head while starting to cry* I didnāt know Steve, Iām so sor-
Steve: What I care about is your safety Deja. All I wanted was for you not to get too much in this mess like... you just canāt force help on someone who doesnāt want it! Your, *chuckles deeply* your stubborn self donāt listen man.
Deja: *wipes tears away* I know I canāt force it *sniffles* I get it okay. But I canāt just leave her killing herself away Steve! God... *tears up again*
Steve looks at the sky for a couple of minutes listening to Deja sniffling. After a moment, starts slowly stepping back.
Steve: I see where you stand now Deja and I donāt want to interfere where your mind is at.
Deja: *looks at Steve confusingly* What are you talking about?
Steve: I canāt bear to see you like this. So do what you have to do to solve this baby, *sighs* but just please consider what I meant about your safety.
Deja: Why are you... *shakes head while closing them then reopens them* Why are you talking like this? And youāre backing up too, where are you going?
Steve: Iām sorry Dee, *bites lip* I-
Deja: Sorry? No stop *grabs Steveās hand* I wonāt do anything anymore, I promise, I-
Steve: You promised last time remember? *tsk* Take care of that. *pulls hand back*
Deja: Steve? *starts crying* Steve, why- ...oh God this is not happening.
