Breaking Free

Looking at Avery in disbelief, I started to look at her stomach. I never noticed that she has a really small pudge.

So that's probably why she's been wearing big shirts lately.

"It's mine right?" I asked just to be sure, I don't want to be taking care of a child and it's not even mine.

She gave me this straight face and looked me in the eyes,"Of course it's yours, silly."

I side eyed her real fast so she wouldn't notice. "How far along are ya?"

"Three weeks, I hope it's a boy." She smiled.

"Whatever it is, I'll be glad 'bout." I mumbled, turning my attention to the television.

Honestly, I still have a feeling that it isn't mine but I'll get to the bottom of that eventually when I get outta here.

"Sooo what do you want to name it?" She tried to start a conversation that I didn't want. But then again, I feel like I'm being too hard on her so I'll try to ease up.

"I don't even know, I just find out I am gonna be a fatha after all." I chuckled.

She laughed with me,"You're right. If it's a boy, I want it to be named after you. But if it's a girl, it could be Aliyah."

I started to nod, agreeing with her. They actually sound like some pretty dope names so I don't mind naming he or she those names.

"Sounds coo'."

Her phone started to ring so I was about to pick it up but she smacked my hand.

Snatching her phone, she went out to the hallway. See, this is the shit that I'm talking about.

[Avery.]

"Hello?" I said once I answered the phone. This better be an important call cause I don't feel like hearing August's mouth when I get back in there.

"Hi!" I hear on the other line.

Just hearing that voice made me smile.

"Hey baby, how are you?" My British accent started to appear.

"I'm good." Then there was a long silence for a minute,"I really miss you."

"I miss you too, babe." I pouted.

"Are you gonna visit me soon?"

"Yes I will, sometime next week." I assured him.

"Promise?"

"I promise." I smiled,"I love you."

"I love you too mommy."

The way Avery snatched her phone and left the room made me really curious. She lucky that she's carrying my child because if she wasn't then I would break up with her.

It's obvious that she cheating on me. But that's alright because two can play at that game.

Soon Avery got back into the room with a smile on her face. "Hi love." She pecked my lips as she was sitting down.
