"Then why are you here if you feel so strongly about this? I'm a slut and a cheater in your eyes so why are you pleading your case?" She asked getting in my face.

"Memo, get out my face."

"I've been saying you changed but what if this been you all along? What if this been your character? Are you still taking your pills?"

"Ivory, stop coming in my face. For real." She stayed there and I backed up. 

"I never wanted us to be like this, we were suppose to be the couple everybody loves but hate on. We were suppose to be way further than we are right now, you think I don't love you when it's the opposite in reality. I love you so much, probably more than you love yourself."

"If you loved me then you wouldn't have eyes for another man."

"And you're right about that. I am wrong for a lot of things but so are you. Don't just place this blame on me."

"I'm not wrong for anything, do you know what I do when I'm in the field? The shit I see and have to go through? The training? The people you see who not right in the head? I be needing days to get my head right."

"So I supposed to feel bad because of a career you chose? You chose this Zayn! They did not force you to go to the army, you went to register, you took the test for it! You knew what the fuck the army did to people before you even signed up! That's not an excuse to ignore me for weeks then expect me to not be fucking mad!"

"I expect you to understand Ivory!"

"Well I don't." She shrugged. "Nobody in their right mind should understand ignoring your fiance for weeks because you can't handle it. What happened to talking shit out? Just like you said people go through hell over there and not talking to you makes me think something happened! I can't be on my grind because I'm too busy blowing your phone up begging you to respond to at least let me know you were okay and you don't even have the decency to do that!"

"You gon take the pregnancy test?"

"So just ignore everything I said right? Okay." She nodded wiping her eyes, I reached for her but she backed up. "Just leave Zayn, I don't have anything else to say to you right now."

I watched her walk out the room and stood there then sighed, I brushed my teeth then threw on some jeans and some slides going to get my car keys. I walked out the room going straight out the door without speaking to anyone, they wouldn't of spoke back anyway. I got in my car speeding to my brothers house, I pulled out my key hearing laughter as I walked towards the kitchen.

"Is that my little brother?" Zayyir said making me form the biggest smile I ever did in my life as I bear hugged him. "The happiest I ever seen this nigga to see me."

"When you fly in? Where NeeNee?" I asked after letting him go. 

"First of all, nigga when did you fly in?" Zaydrien asked confused.

"Searsly, why you ain't tell nobody? And you don't speak to nobody else nugget head ass nigga?" Zayden asked.

"I flew in around three days ago and if niggas answer their phone, y'all would know that." 

"Everybody know Zayden don't answer his phone." Zayyir said making us laugh as he flicked us off. "We flew in around three hours ago, NeeNee heard Ny was going into birth and decided to come."

"She at the hospital?" I asked and he nodded.

"Speaking of hospitals, really Zay?" Zayden glared at me.

"Man listen." I sighed.

"Wait, what happened?" Zaydrien asked as all their attention went on me.
