Meanwhile
Mya
I cannot believe this. I quickly text Ty that she didn't need to get me since Chai was dropping me off.
Just then the door open in came Chai behind with 2 bags
Greedy ass.
" here" he said handing me a bag.
" what is this ?"
" your food I ain't know if you was hungry or not so I just end up getting you something anyway"
I unwrap the bacon cheese burger seeing all my condiments I get when I come here.
" how you remember this ?"
" ion know I just do, oh here is your milkshake for your fries"
I was a little puzzle.
" you can say thank you, you know"
" yea thanks" I said eating a fry.
We was a bit far from my house when I felt myself starting to doze off.
15 minutes later . . .
I felt something touching my arm making me instantly get up.
" you home" he said parking the car.
I gather my belongings getting out his car.
Finally made it in my home slipping off my shoes and jacket.
I finally sat down unraveling the rest of my burger and putting my fries by my milkshake to dip in.
I sat thinking about the memory of when I introduce Chai when I ate it in front of him
Flashback . . .
" yo you serious right now" he said as he scrunched his face.
" it's sooooo gooood" I said rubbing it in his face.
I purposely dip a fry in milkshake trying to give it to him.
" You should try it Chai"
" not that nasty shit" he said trying to fan it away.
All I could do was laugh.
" yo ass gone mess around and get sick"
" boy bye I've been doing this since I was 12, ain't pop up sick yet"
" that's crazy"
I laughed to myself thinking of the memory
Only very few of these memories we have.
A knock came to my door taking me out my thoughts.
" Aye can I use your bathroom"
I Scrunched my face up at him.
" Chai I thought you left" I said letting him in.
" Hell Nawl I was hungry, I wasn't trying to eat and drive on the road" he said quickly walking to the back.
I quickly closed my door, while shaking my head.
I sat back down texting Brandy. Hoping she was okay. It's been a minute since we talk.
The sound of the toilet flushing alerted me.
" you don't wanna go in there for an hour or 2"
" Chai you are nasty" I said frowning up at him.
He just started laughing like it was hilariously.
" I'm just playing Mya"
" don't play like that, Nasty"
" why you always gotta be serious all the time" he said taking a seat by me.
Ok he getting a lil to comfortable now.
" cause you know how you get and why you sitting on my couch like you ain't got no where to go"
" For one I don't and two what you mean I don't know how to act" he said while getting even more comfortable.
" Chai I'm not finna respond to you"
" you know this the most cordial we been in a while"
" you haven't cuss me out or even put yours hands on me"
" good hopefully we can stay that way"
" Mya there is something I have been meaning to tell you"
" like what chai"
" I plan to move to L.A in a couple of months from now, you know expanding my business"
" Chai . . . "
I had to really think of what I was going to say.
"you know what do what's best for you okay. Don't forget about your son."
For some reason, I was hurt but then I remember its Chai I should have expected this.
Especially the way his clothing company is taking off.
" so you not mad"
" nope not one bit" I said calmly.
I felt him giving me a weird stare. My curiosity was right.
" stop looking at me like that" I said to him.
" I think imma head out" he said gathering himself.
Good.
I walked him to the door.
" um see you later" he said
" okay" I said
I close my door letting out a breath of air I was holding in.
That was weird.
Brandy . . .
We both stared at each other as the timer went off
I was too nervous to get up.
" you can get it" I said to him.
He took a deep sigh going in the bathroom.
I was shaking so badly because I wasn't expecting this. We haven't even told our friends yet for God sake.
He walked in with an unreadable look on his face.
" it's negative"
I let out a breath I knew I was holding.
" that was a close call" Keith said.
" lords know, ion like kids" he said shaking his head chuckling a little.
For some reason that rubbed me the wrong way.
" you don't want kids . . . like in the future."
" hell no, I don't need any crumb snatchers, I'm good on the lil guys" he said laughing.
Like it was sooo funny.
He looked at me and know something was wrong.
" you not going to laugh with me"
" no Keith, I like kids and plan to have them but of course when the time is right"
Yes I was grateful of not being with child as of now, but damn sure was definitely going to keep it.
" Damn um I-I didn't know that, he said scratching his head"
" You know what maybe it's best we leave each other alone because we both are not on the same track" I said to him.
I was honestly was tired of being skeptical about him.
" yo you serious" he said looking annoyed
" yes ! I really am. I'm just tired maybe we moved too fast" I said honestly.
" aight then bet"
He gather his belongings leaving out without saying another word.
I sat back on my bed looking at the test reading negative.
A few days back I was feeling super bad. Not eating, throwing up. I had to take a few days off of work.
And plus I was late so I knew something had to be wrong.
I call Keith to let him know, and earlier today I stop to grab a test.
Soon as I got back from the store he was already parked at my door.
I felt myself getting a little teary eyed.
God why can't you just send me the right man.
We didn't even last no more than three months.
I know it is whats best for us though.
A month later . . . . . .
Machai
I stared at her as they read this crazy bitch her rights.
This dummy decided to call my phone saying that she need to meet me somewhere. I called up the detective let him know.
And just like that they have her ass in custody.
" yo I appreciate this man"
" no problem man we will talk later" he said.
Today was good day.
Me and Mya continue with the therapy sessions and they are going good.
We get alone more.
My baby boy is doing great. I was on my way to see him before my lituation tonight.
I parked my car heading to my parents front door.
My mom finally decided to talk to me of course and me apologizing to her.
And my dad, baby steps. I know the old man was still disappointed in me but I was trying to make a 180 with my life.
" SURPRISE !!!!"
I was bombarded with the loud outburst and confetti.
" Happy Birthday Baby" my mom said hugging me.
My sisters and aunts were all here.
" Boy you just get handsome every time I see you"
" appreciate that aunt jas"
" I made my way to the kitchen where I saw Bro-Bro with Mya"
I smirked at her.
" So you matching my fly now" I said in her ear since it was loud in the house.
The loud music was going on, people talking, damn near a family reunion.
I had on a blue polo shirt, and some ripped jeans, she was sported in a blue dress with a jean jacket. Her hair in on of those natural hairstyles.
" boy bye" She said waving me off.
" Bro - Bro gimme five man" I said with my handout.
I watch as he hit my hand excitedly.
" have you seen your dad" Mya questioned
" Nawl not yet, but in other news they got Olivia"
" Well good she deserved to rot in hell" she said.
" but back to you though, according to mama K, he misses you Chai, please go talk to him"
" ok I'll go talk to the man"
Just when I was heading on the back patio I was stopped by Brook.
" waddup baby bro"
" Hey sis" I was said hugging her.
" I see you and Mya getting along, y'all look cute by the way"
" yo don't start" I said laughing.
" I ain't say nothing" she said zipping her lips.
" but Um there is something I need to tell you"
" you pregnant ain't you"
" Damn you couldn't guess nothing else"
" oh shit you about give me a nephew !"
" shhhhhhh loud ass, only you and Mia know"
I was cheesing hard as hell.
" Anyways have you talk to dad yet"
Damn is that the only reason why everyone here.
" look I'll go talk to him now" I said gesturing to leave.
I walked on the back patio seeing my uncles.
My dad was on the grill but didn't look up at me.
" Well if it ain't Thing 2, Shane you sure you ain't birth this lil nigga yo self." Uncle Car said.
" Chill man" he said
" Yo Chai, I see the shop doing well, proud of you man" My uncle Dwight said.
" thanks" I said dapping him up.
I walked up to my pops noticing it got quiet.
Nosey ass.
They was just out here laughing.
I guess imma be the bigger person today.
" Yo pops can I talk to you"
" I'm busy man"
" I think imma head to the front where the food at" Dwight said leaving.
" yea I think imma stay right here" Car said sipping his beer.
" Man bring your ass on" Dwight said
" man that's my brother it's family business"
Only thing you could here was the sizzling of the meat on the grill.
" com'on you can't be like this forever pops"
" you don't know that"
" look I'm serious dad, this is the longest we have went without talking to each other. When will this shit end"
" aye don't come in here disrespecting me"
" man ain't nobody disrespecting you" I said as he step close to me.
" hey hey what are y'all two arguing about" mom said coming outside.
" Nothing bae"
I ain't say nothing but continue to give him a glare.
" Obviously that is not the case since your son looking like he ready to kick yo ass Shane"
I ain't have time for games.
" Look I'm out" I said about to leave.
" Chai !" I listen as my mother called after me.
I wasn't hearing it.
I made my way over to Mya and Bro-Bro.
" why you leaving so early"
" cause I'm not invited" I said playing with Bro-Bro trying to ignore Mya intense stare.
" To your own damn birthday party"
" Chai you talk to your dad didn't you ?"
" does it really matter"
" of course it does, you nee-"
" I'm gone" I said before kissing Brodie forehead.
" Chai . . . Chai !" I walked out the door listening to Mya called after me.
At this point I just wanna forget about ever coming here.
