New Beginnings

Chapter 59

So I've hit the nine month mark. We've got the other room set up for him. Im supposed to be due on the 19 of April. It's the 5th today.

Let me update what has happened the last month: I still talk to Stacey almost everyday and hang out with her once a week. Neither Chres or her dad know about it though. She's such a nice girl to be with. Umm... Me, my mom, Chres, and Cameron had this "family dinner". Chres told me that he spoke to Cameron about what happened but of course he still doesn't like him. He's also been acting really weird lately and I think it's because he's nervous about the baby. We still don't know whether to name the our baby Chres or Romelo. He's being very difficult about it.

Also, he won't answer my questions about how he makes money. He said that my dad pays our rent and gives us the extra money. When I asked my dad, he didn't know what I was talking about so Im very determined to find out what's going on.

*****

"Im going out", I called to Chres while combing my hair in the bathroom.

He came to the doorway and leaned against the door. "Can you stay with me please? You can have this baby any second. I want to be there."

"But I have to go meet with St- my friend today", I say correcting myself.

"What?"

"What?", I repeated acting like I didn't know what he was talking about.

"What friend. You're not very good at lying you know", he chuckled.

"Nobody."

I turned to him and he had a frown on his face. "Who Ava?"

"Stacey", I mumbled so low that he probably didn't hear me.

"Excuse me?", he leaned in and crossed his arms.

I rolled my eyes,"Stacey."

He rubbed his hand over his head,"Fuck."

"Is this who you've been hanging out with every week?", he asked.

"Yes", I simply answered. I did not want to start an argument.

"You're not seeing her anymore", he said. "Im doing this because I don't want anything to happen to you."

"Im going", I said looking at myself in the mirror one last time. I try to push pass him but he doesn't let me go. "Excuse me."

"Why won't you just listen to me? Im trying to keep you safe", he explains. "You should be resting and getting ready for the baby."

I sigh,"Okay." He moves to the side and I walk past him. He then goes in the bathroom and closes the door and I quietly laugh. I walk into the kitchen, grabbing the keys and off the counter. He wasn't about to keep me from going out.

CHRES' P.O.V

After I was done using the bathroom, I walked out and saw that she wasn't in the room. I went to the babies room and she wasn't there. Then the living room. Then the kitchen. I noticed that the keys and her purse wasn't there.

She left? After I told her not to?

I ran to get my phone, calling her. She answered after about 4 rings.

"Hello?", she answered. In sounded like she was laughing. "I was expecting you to call."

"What the fuck is so funny about this?", I asked. I was livid right now.

"Nothing. What do you want?"

"What do I want? I want to know why you left after I sai--"

"I don't care what you said Chres", she interrupted.
