*ALEXIS' POV*
"I really can't believe you guys are leaving tomorrow, already. The week went by so fast."

Trevor said as we were both in the living room. Aniyah and mom were still asleep upstairs.

"I know, I have to try to come and visit more often."

"I'm guessing that Jacob doesn't help out with Aniyah at all, huh?"

"No, not at all. Nothing has changed since you and mom left. It only got worse. Instead of worrying about his daughter and responsibilities, he rather fuck different bitches every month. I've just came to conclusions that no one can change him but him."

I shrugged, taking a sip of my orange juice. Trevor nodded.

"It's a damn shame. I actually liked Jacob before you got pregnant. Too bad he turned out like that. You don't have your eyes on no other guys? Specifically someone named Armon?"

Trevor teased. I chuckled, but shook my head.

"No. I mean, he's very cute and such a sweetheart. But it wouldn't work out. There's too much distance between us."

"Shit. If he brought me that gold ass chain dangling from your neck, I woulda made it work if I was you."

"There's also someone else I'm interested in. I'm not for sure yet, I have to get to know him more, and then I can be the judge of that."

"Who is he? Please don't tell me it's someone like Jacob."

"Oh, hell no! I already have one Jake to deal with, I'm not dealing with more than one. His name is Dave. Aniyah goes to school with his daughter. I didn't know until we met up by an accident, and he told me."

I explained to Trevor.

And I know I've only known of Dave for about two weeks now, but I feel like there could possibly be something in our future for us.

"Pretty interesting. What are you going to tell him though when he sees the gold chain?"

Before I could respond to Trevor's question, there was a knock at the door.

I got up to answer it, and there was Armon standing in front of me.

"Hey, Armon. What's up?"

"Nothing much. I know you're leaving tomorrow, so I was wondering if you wanted to hang out for a bit? Both you and Aniyah?"

"Aniyah is actually still sleep with my mom. But, I can come. Let me just get ready, and we can go."

I let Armon into the house, letting him sit down next to Trevor before I walked up stairs to get dressed.

After I got out of the shower, my phone was ringing.

I looked to see who it was. I thought it was Alyssa. But, no.

Incoming call...
Dave

The smile on my face grew, and I quickly answered the phone before it hung up.
