Chapter 51 - Ain't Gonna Know What Hit 'Em Pt. 1

Sadé sat in a chair next to Naunie, watching the process of me record a song titled "Stepdad." I was in the booth rapping the rymes off my notebook as she listened along. I could tell she was feeling it because she had her full attention on me with a smile of semi on her face, bobbing her head to the music slightly.

"Outside, I look like I'm calm
Inside, I'm a tickin' time bomb
'Cause of this motherfucker, who sticks his dick in my mom (My mom)
Last night, he said I left the kitchen light on
But he walked in there this morning and purposely flipped it, I saw him
Hickory switch to my bottom, I counted sixty-nine times
He swatted me with it, I'd cry
He just started hittin' me harder
God, I wish I could just jaw him
If I could get my weight up
But I'm just a second grader
This prick is bigger than I am
But I've been readin' at school about this shit called liquid cyanide
I'm fantasizin' at night when he's sleepin' at just the right time
Sneak up with a lethal injection
And put him down like they did to my dog
I'm talkin' euthanasia (Euthanasia), like kids in Taiwan
This fuckin' shit's like Saigon (Saigon)
Neighbors called police on him
So many battery charges, this dude's like lithium-ion
Then Mom and him let bygones (Bygones)
Just be bygones
So on eggshells, I walk and just try not to piss this guy off
But this is why I..." I  continued to rap aggressively.

It only took a few tries for me to complete the song. Once I had finished recording it, we decided to take a small break. I took the headphones off my head and left the booth.

"Thoughts?" I asked Sadé, taking a seat in the swivel chair next to her.

"I never even had a stepdad, but it felt like I did. That was so cool." She told me supportingly, "I- I hate, My-my stepdad." She recited the chorus, making all of us guys laugh at her enthusiasm.

I smiled at her warmly, squeezing her thigh.

Me, Sae, and the guys talked for a little bit before getting back to work. We still had more songs to record, and little bit of production to get done today before we could call it quits.

— A Few Hours Later

It was a few hours later, meaning it was time for an actual lunch break as we were all becoming hungry. The guys all left, telling us they'd bring back food, while Sadé and I stayed back, leaving us alone in the studio.

"So what do think of everything so far?" I asked for her validation.

I wanted to see what she thought of my music, the process, and if she even liked being here with me. I know I can be real in my zone when I'm working so I just wanted to check in with her.

"I love it. I think all the songs I've heard so far are all really good. You're so good at what you do, baby. Like seriously, I don't listen to rap like that, but I like yours. And it's really cool seeing how music is made. I never knew so much goes into it." She said devotedly.

"Awe, thank you, pretty girl. I'm glad that you find interest in my career and support me." I kiss her hand sweetly.

"I'll always support you, you know that. I love how you inspire a lot of people and young artists through your music, and how you use it as an outlet to let all your thoughts out. Not a lot of people can do what you do, love." She replied, raising her eyebrows and pursuing her lips.

Her words meant a lot to me. I'm happy I had such a supportive woman and healthy relationship. I've never had anything or anyone like this before.

I didn't reply to what she said because what's understood don't gotta be explained. Instead, I pulled her chair closer to mines using my foot, and pulled her face closer to me. I kissed her on the lips sweetly. Honestly, this was one of the first time in a few days that we had shared a passionate kiss. To my surprise, she didn't push me away like I thought she would. Actually, she leaned her face into my hands, allowing me to deepen the kiss. I savored the moment as things got heated. I knew she wouldn't let me get any type of action still so I enjoyed what I could in the heat of the moment. We continued to make out for a few minutes before she pulled away.
