its been a month since we found out bout Malik and me and Robert are getting married.

We also found out that Malik is really smart too. He helps Em with her homework and im happy she has someone round her age to play with at home.We were all in the living room tickling each other. I looked and seen Malik just sitting watching us on the bottom steps.

I walked over to him and sat beside him.

"What's wrong Malik?"

"I just feel like an outcast." he looked down.

I hugged him.

"U shouldn't u are part of this family. I might not be your bio mom but I will treat u like my son."

he smiled and I pulled him in the living room.

I picked him up and we all dogged pilled on Robert .

He laughed.

"How Y'all just gonna jump me." he laughed.

We tickled him.

He grabbed Malik and tickled him. We all helped. Malik had tears in his eyes.

"Please...please." he laughed.

I fell to the ground dying in laughter. Then we all chilled out and sat down.

"Heyy Malik when is your birthday?"

"In 3 weeks."

"U ever have a birthday party?" he shook his head.

"Well, u will in 3 weeks." I smiled.

He smiled.

the gulls and Junior went and cooked lunch. I sat in the living room with Malik. I wanted some bonding time with him .I turned on the game and we played.

"So u got a girl at school?"

"I like this one girl but everybody doesn't like her. She quite and all that."

"U should talk to her. The quiet ones are always the best. That's how I met kamani at a freshman party. She was quiet. She barely talk to me."

we chuckled. 

"I just want to do my work first then maybe talk to girls."

"I feel u."

"Heyy dad can I ask u something?"

"Yea." I paused the game.

"My mom told me that u didn't want me when I asked about u. Is that true?"

"No. I didn't even know you we're here. I would never disown my child." he smirked.

"Good cuz I kinda wanted to come to stay with u anyway."

"I know how u feel. I wanted to stay with my dad after my mom died but I never knew who he was."

"It's a good thing I know who u are."

"Yea me too." I patted him on the back.

"Lunch ready."

Mani came in the living room. We got up and walked in the kitchen.She made hamburgers and fries. We got our food and ate on the patio.We were all at the lunch table eating and talking.

Then Malik started to make a beat with his hands.

"Wow were u learn that from that was good." he smiled.

"Im good at making my own beats and stuff."

"U got really good talent. I should take u to my studio sometime." his eyes lit up.

I looked at mani and she smiled at me.

I grabbed her hand and kissed her.

"I love u."

"I love u too."

she kissed me.

We all finished eating.We went to the house and chilled.

"Robert Wright." he nodded.

"You are under arrest for the murder of Sakai William." he looked confused.

They handcuffed him.

They walked him to the car. I ran out to them.

"Wait u can't take him."

one of the officers pulled me back.

"Mani get the kids and go home. I'll call u."

I nodded and ran to get the kids.

We walked back to the car seen the police car pull off. I got in the car and drove home. I had so many tears in my eyes.How could he do this? We are about to get married how could he do this.
