45 MINUTES LATER

I'm fixing my clothes making sure I look presentable with tears in my eyes.
"Ah wasn't that good" Hazel says still laying on the bed naked and smiling

"You got what you want, now where's Tristan?"
"Downstairs locked in that room by the front door..... he was getting on my nerve" She says rolling her eyes

"What the fuck is wrong with you, you heartless bitch. You do that to your own child. " I shout, she just brushes pass me not even caring

I run downstairs and try to unlock the door, leaning on the door I hear sniffling and know I gotta get my son out of here. "Bud it's Daddy! I'm here to get you"

"D-Daddy.... I'm s-sc cared"
"I know Bud it's okay. Step back from the door so I could open it, okay?"

I kick the door in finding Tristan sitting on the floor with his knees to his chest hugging himself. I pick him up cradling him into me as he cries and shakes. I continue to kiss and tell him how I love him and that he's safe. As I walk over the threshold with my son in my arms, I tell myself that whatever it takes I'mma fight for him. For us.





ONE HOUR LATER

"Tristan!!" Everyone yells greeting us by the door and automatically go running to him. I lock eyes with Megan and I instantly feel horrible for what I did. I gotta tell and I gotta tell her tonight.

"Babe... I got something to tell you" I say coming up behind her as she washes the dishes in the kitchen and the kids are in the living room

"Yeah bae. Whats up?" she says facing me

" When I went to get Tristan she- she. (sigh). Told me I had to sleep with her in order to get Tristan" I quickly look up at her to find her with a scrunched up confused face

"So you slept with her?"

"Y-Yeah... but she had Tristan locked in a room, and she threatened me, us. She had came onto me and I pushed her and she hit her head so she said she was gonna say that I had beaten her. B-Babe... I didn't want to, I didn't want to at all" I say stepping towards her but she steps back

"Don't touch me. Don't!"
"Baby.. I- I didn't want to... I don't want he-"

"But you did.. You did sleep with her instead of... ugh get out my face right now" She mutters but I don't listen I still reach for her

And she slaps me hard, "Get the fuck away from me Tee!!" She yells  "I'm so done. I'm done!!" She shouts hitting me and I just stand there taking it. She continues to swing as tears form in her eyes as my own falls from my eyes


She stops telling me to get out and that we're through. With nothing else to say I turn around to leave out the kitchen finding all of the kids there. Watching us. I grab them all into my arms hugging them as they hug me back. "y'all take care of each other and look out for one another... I love y'all"




MEGAN POV (TWO WEEKS LATER)

"There that bitch is!!" Normani says as we've been driving around looking for Hazel.

I feel bad for what I said to Tee, I went off on her when she was the victim. It wasn't till today that I realized she was putting the kids and I before herself again, and I couldn't be there for her like she needed me to be. The kids miss her so much, she hasn't been by to see them but she facetime them all the time. Shoot I even miss her but I get why she's keeping her distance. She needed me to hold her down and I just threw her being threatened or even Tristan being left in a locked room by himself as if it was nothing.
