|A Week Later-Friday|
Shari
Another wild trip has been completed, Last week was unexpected but it is, what it is. Yes, i should have minded my own relationship but she's definitely not off the hook, Mike was currently here at my apartment waiting on Kiana to go to a hotel again for the night.. she had been there all week. Ja'cione was here too chilling with us. I honestly hated that happened between them, wish she never entertained jail dude, but she is sneaky and she has to learn her lesson. I blocked her on everything, my phone and social media. She won't be getting in contact with me for a while and i loved it.
Mike's phone started ringing and there her name popped up on his screen, he answered it looking pissed.
"i'm in the car leaving.'' She sound like she had been crying, but honestly i didn't give a fuck.
"Yay!'' i shouted loudly making sure she heard me.
''Shari, shut the fuck up.'' Ja'cione said looking irritated with me.
I ignored him, eating my fruit salad.
Mike gave him a look, mouthing something to him.
''Well shit i forgot she being rude as hell.''
"Ok.'' Mike replied now talking to kiana.
''Where is Ada?''
"She's playing with Ja'cione right now.'' Mike mumbled.
"Oh. Can you take some pictures and send them to me?''
"I'll think about it."
"Ok..Ada's bottles are in the fridge. I pumped her some more before i left.''
''Appreciate it. Bye.'' Mike said tapping the red button to end the call.
''Damn, i'm ashamed to claim you two right now...that's sad.'' Ja'cione said as he placed Ada in Mike's hands.
''Well, you know what they say another shoulder to cry on, is a dick to ride on.'' I answered shrugging my shoulders.
Mike just shook his head, not saying anything.
"No offense, but you shouldn't have told Shari nothing, you know how her ass gets when she drunk, thinking she Mike Tyson and Shit."
"Nigga, that's my whole twin. What'd you expect? Everybody know how we coming behind each other."
"Right!'' I agreed nodding my head.
"Kiana still gang to me though, and the rest of us.. don't care what yall got going on, that aint got shit to do with us. So don't be tryna separate us and shit. Already know, i hate drama.''
"We know." Mike and i responded at the same time.
"Good. I'm out. Not feeling y'all's vibes right now. I only came here for Ada...might be like Marcus and block everyone.''
When we arrived back home, Marcus really blocked everyone, he cussed all of us out. So that was that, it was too much drama going on for him right now. So in order for anyone to contact him we have to call ashley's phone. At first i thought he was playing, but he was really deadass. I tried calling him to apologize and failed. That's when i discovered i was blocked, but he'll come back around soon...hopefully. I'm starting to see why he doesn't really like us. Ashley was still upset to, we apologized to her and she accepted our apology but i knew she was still hurt, along with Ari, and Diamond. I removed myself from the group chats with Kiana in them and made another one without her. I seriously don't want anything to do with her right now.
"Please don't.'' I sighed heavily.
"I need to..the way everyone acting right now.'' was the last thing he mumbled before he walked out of the door.
Ten minutes later, Mike and Ada headed home.
I would have some alone time to myself, i took a little nap. When i woke back up it was one o'clock in the morning, i heard a noise in my kitchen. It was big foot I knew i didn't give him a key, so why did he have one in his hand? That's it, i'm getting a passcode or a finger print instead.
"What we doing here for real Shari? i need to know.''
"Why are you here? How did you get a key?'' I asked looking confused and annoyed.
"Answer me.''
"You first.''
"It's not hard to get a key made ma.'' He chuckled. "You gon' apologize to Kiana-''
"Hell no.''
"Damn, you rude as hell.''
"So, can you leave now? I'm done with you too.''
"Nope.'' He answered nonchalantly.
"Please, before i have you escorted out of here.''
"By Who?''
"The police dumbass.''
"With what phone?''
"Mine.'' i flipped all of my pillows off the couch, looking for it.
"I got all two of your phones, ma...i can't be too dumb.''
"What-How did you-nevermind.'' I sat back down on the couch.
"You been taking your medicine?"
"No, i've actually been fine these past few days.''
"That explains your moods.''
'' I'm not in any mood, so stop it.''
"Ma, go take you medicine. For real.''
"No, i don't need it.''
"Yes you do...I told your parents too..about everything.''
"Great, now i'll have to hear their mouth too.''
"You need to go see your therapist, cause i don't like seeing you like this.''
''i am not crazy. i'm fine.''
"I didn't say you were, stop putting words in my mouth.''
"Alright.''
"I'm only here checking up on you, seem like i'm the only one who wants to deal with you...yo peoples don't care enough for me.''
"Ok, seriously get the fuck out.''
"No.''
"I'm serious.''
"You mad cause i'm telling the truth?''
"Listen, you barely know anything about me-''
"I know nobody likes to deal with you when you like this...you even talk to your parents today?''
"No. I don't have to call them everytime something happens. I'm grown. You may be a dad, but you are not mine.''
"I'm glad im not, i damn sure don't wanna be ... i actually pay attention to my daughters.''
ok, that stung a bit.
"Wow...well i'm going back to sleep, you can let yourself out.''
Dave didn't say anything, he just continued eating his food. I walked into my room shutting the door. A few minutes later, i heard my shower running. once he was done, he came into the room with nothing on, getting in the bed with me. He wrapped his arms around me, pulling me closer.
''Can i have my phones now?''
"Will you call Kiana and apologize?''
''No...I'm not apologizing for shit, she shouldn't have cheated on my brother.'' i sat up looking at him.
"Kiana ain't cheated on him, even i know that..come on ma. You think she would really do that?''
No.
"I don't know what she would do to be honest.''
"You need to be worrying about us, and not them. That's your brother's relationship.''
"Ok, David.'' i said rolling my eyes. I got up grabbing my blanket from the closet.
"Where you going?''
"To sleep on the couch.''
"You know i can't sleep without you.''
''Not my problem.''
I walked out of my room closing the door behind me.
Once i wrapped my blanket around me, i plopped onto the chair. i laid on my pillow drifting off to sleep, hopefully tomorrow would be a better day.

Saturday
Dave
I dragged shari to my store today just to change her vibes. I found her medicine while she was showering and crushed them in her drink, since i made breakfast for us this morning. Either way i made sure she was taking them shits because her attitude was horrible and i know she's normally a sweetheart. So i'm trying to help her because i know she can't control her moods and i really do care about her. Last night she woke up in the middle of the night and cut on the tv, she been up ever since. i'm not gon' let a mental illness stop me from loving her. It's obvious she needs me and i'm not going anywhere. I know not to take any of the things she says personal, because i know she doesn't know what she's saying or doing. I took her keys and credit cards until she starts feeling well. she's going to be with me.
I greeted people as they walked in and took a couple of pictures with some fans.
"Ma, you want a chopped cheese?''
"No, not right now.''
i had her standing at the register, putting her to work. Some female fans were asking her questions about her and me, but she kept the answers to a minimum in a nice way. You could tell she didn't really want to be bothered with anyone or anything right now, i was just waiting for her medicine to kick in, i hope it actually works. I peeped Diamond and Ari walking in. Kiana stood outside the door looking in, i saw that she had Ada who was up and alert. I motioned for her to come in, once shari spotted Ada she walked over grabbing her from Kiana.
"Hi Shari-''
"Hey Ada!'' Shari smilled ignoring Kiana, Ada's gummy smile only showed for a little bit before she started crying for her mom again. Babies pick up vibes instantly, they know when something is wrong.
"What made yall stop by? Hungry?''
"Yes.'' Diamond answered quickly.
"Chopped Cheese?'' i asked looking at everyone.
"Yes.''
"Alright, give me a few minutes, i'll have em ready.''
To not make Kiana feel left out i called her and Ada over talking to them.
"You letting her taste candy yet? I got lollipops.'' i said passing one to her.
Ada reached out for me, i was shocked. "Call me Uncle Dave.'' I chuckled watching her reaction to the candy.
"It's sour.'' Kiana laughed watching her little face frown up.
"Dave, you on your third child already? Always cheating on me..we getting a divorce.'' a fan shouted at me, she was a regular customer i joked with every now and then.
"I'm not cheating on you, this my niece ma.''
''Oh, hey niece.'' She laughed waving at Ada who frowned and just looked at her.
That shari's niece for real, she just had mike's face.
"I'm sorry she's very protective of her people.'' Kiana smiled.
''It's ok, she's so cute. See ya later.''
i waved goodbye at her.
Ada watched on as my employees fixed the food.
"Dave, i want to try the whole menu.'' Ari laughed walking over.
"You deadass?'' i asked looking over at her.
"Yes i am. '' She responded proudly.
"We are doing a video for her channel. A mukbang.'' Diamond cheesed thinking about all the food.
"Oh that's why. I got yall. It'll probably take a little minute .''
''Ok, we'll wait.''
I peeped shari was in her own little world.
"I wonder how long this one will last?'' Diamond asked looking at all of us.
"Hopefully not too long, i'm tryna be mature but i can't deal with her like this, she needs help. She blocked me on everything.''
"Well you did beat her ass.'' Ariana mumbled
''She started it, i wish mike would've kept his mouth closed. That lil therapist got him opening up and shit. Telling everyone our business. Now i'm looking for a place to stay. Me and Landon did nothing.''
"We know.'' Diamond , Ari and I responded at the same time.
"Don't worry, he'll realize what he did was wrong. You two will be back together in no time.'' responded.
''I hope.'' Kiana mumbled looking down at the floor.
Diamond spoke scrolling through her phone. "But you said you were gonna stand on everything you said-
"Diamond, i was just angry, i didn't really mean it...I love him...but if him and his sister keep being mean to me... i will.. i'm already looking at condos online.''
"Aww.. we are sorry this is happening to you.'' Diamond poked her lip out.
"I can stay with you again at the hotel tonight.'' Ari suggested.
"No, i'll be fine, just need time to myself that's all, thanks though Ari.'' Kiana responded laying her head on ari's shoulder.
Ada saw shari walking over but this time she reached out for her. Shari took her from me walking around the store. "Is mommy talking about me?''
''Ok, now she's doing it on purpose.. see.'' Kiana said sending a glare at shari.
I shook my head, once they all finally grabbed their food they headed out and said their goodbyes.
Shari walked over to me. "I'm ready to go.''
"Ma, we only been here for a few hours.''
"And? I wanna go home..i'll be in the car.'' She grabbed her phones out of my pocket walking out of the door.
"Shorty got a little attitude problem.'' One of my employees said watching her.
"Ain't nothing i can't handle.'' I shrugged looking at him. I watched as Shari got inside the car.
I made sure everyone and everything was straight before i left.
"Wanna go for a drive?''
"Not really.''
"That's too bad. You gotta eat something, Whatchu want?''
"I'm not hungry.''
"If you eat something, i'll take you home.''
"Ok, maybe some taco's are fine.''
''Bet.''
When she got her food, the restaurant was only a few minutes from her place, i drove past it.
''Dave, you missed the turn. Where are we going?''
"I said for a drive. Then we'll go home.''
"No, i wanna go home now, turn around.''
"No.''
"I'll jump out-
i quickly locked the doors and the windows.
'This is kidnap, What is wrong with you?''
"Sit back, or i'll drive us both off this shit.''
"you wouldn't.''
I swerved the car a bit, watching her reaction. She still was holding on to her tacos though.
"You're really crazy.''
"Nah, i'm just matching your energy babygirl.'' I chuckled slightly.
This what she wanted, This is what she gets. Now look at us.
_________________________________
Ashley paced the floor back and forth trying to figure out where Marcus was she hadn't talk to him since earlier this morning, it was now late at night, going on 10:00 in the night. and she couldn't sleep, He was still irritated about the trip going wrong. That's all he talked about this week. So they got into a petty argument causing him to leave angrily, it was obvious she didn't mean anything she said, but he was talking about them moving to Atlanta, but ashley didn't want to move. She loved New york, it's where she was born and raised, and it was what she was use to. She wasn't use to a slow paced life. Also , she felt like Marcus would continue being safer in New York. They lived in a nice area, she didn't want to chance anything no matter what. She knew getting into marriage she would have to sacrifice some things but some stuff she still had to think about.
Once she heard the door unlocking she was relieved seeing Marcus's face.
"Where were you?''
"Out.''
''Out where? I've been calling your phone all day. Stop ignoring me, i hate it when you do that.''
"You know i just be out hustling that's all, i'm sorry.''
"You usually would have checked in with me, i've been worrying about you, Thinking you were in jail or something.''
"Ash, i'm gon always make it back home to you, you know that. Plus ima be out this shit soon.''
Ashley sighed heavily in relief. "Really?''
"Yes, i'm thinking bout business.''
"Good! I could help you with that.'' Ashley smiled straddling him as he sat on the couch.
"Ain't got no choice.. i wanna start doing this shit the right way.. i just need your help... I definitely wanna change my ways.''
"So.. are you thinking about college?''
"Yeah..I just know that shit hard.''
"Yeah..it is.. but you're very smart marcus..you can do anything you want. It'll all be worth it in the end.''
"I know.'' Marcus replied kissing ashley's lips.
"Want me to help you fill out some applications when we wake up?''
Marcus nodded his head, he was tired physically and mentally.
Ashley fixed him a plate of food, they talked some more apologizing to each other and cuddled up for the rest of the night.
_____________________________________
Landon walked inside of the hotel, finding kiana's room, he knocked on the door waiting for her to answer. When she finally did, he walked in slowly admiring her body through her Chanel sleeping set, and closed the door. Sitting on the bed as he stood over her, Kiana melted looking up at him but she knew nothing was going to happen.
"So..What happened?'' Kiana asked trying to get the info about what mike had said to him.
''He don't believe me. I told him.''
"Everything? Including what you did?''
"Hell nah, i'm trying not to go back inside, so i left that part out.''
"Landon.'' Kiana groaned shaking her head.
"Stop before i have you screaming for real.''
Kiana ignored his comment. "Why didn't you tell him?''
"the same reason you didn't.''
''Fuck.'' Kiana cursed underneath her breath.
"That's what i'm trying to do, hell he already kicked me out the class.''
"Really?'' Kiana watched as he sat on the bed next to her.
"Yeah, Yall on a break anyway....right?''
"Yes.'' Kiana mumbled zoning out.
''He tripping, i wouldn't put the woman who carried my whole creation out nowhere, that's low as hell.''
"I know right.'' Kiana shrugged still looking sad, she hated everything that was happening to her.
"I apologize, i was trying to make you fold...or fold you up but, you a solid one for real.''
''Thanks..I try to be.'' Kiana said looking at her lockscreen, it was a photo of Ada and Mike sleeping.
"Yeah, but welp that's all i came to say..... I apologize for being a creep, homewrecker and shit. Good luck and take care Kiana.'' Landon stated pulling her into in a side hug, he still had his eye on her backside. He really wanted to grip it but shook it off.
"Apology accepted.'' Kiana half smiled a bit. She watched as he walked out of the door.
Her phone started ringing loudly, she looked down seeing Mike's name across the screen.
She hesitated but answered it anyway. "Hello.'
"Hi Kiana, this is Lauren. Mike's therapist, i was at a restaurant with my husband and i spotted mike at the bar...He's completely wasted.. I guess he ubered there because i didn't see his car.''
"Wow, i'm sorry but other than that is he ok?''
"Yes. He's currently in here singing his heart out.'' Lauren laughed a bit.
"Wow.'' Kiana chuckled
"We are currently pulling into the hotel parking lot, can you meet us in the lobby? afterwards we'll help you with him to the room.''
"Ok, sure. I'll be right down.'' Kiana said as she slid on her chanel slippers quickly.
She grabbed her room keycard sliding into her pocket, and headed into the elevator.
Once she made it down to the lobby, she saw three of them, Mike could barely walk, it looked like he had been going through it.
"I'm sorry. Thanks for getting him.''
"No problem. We couldn't leave him like that.'' Lauren responded smiling at kiana who was taking in all of her features. She was very beautiful.
''Nah, we couldn't do that to him. I'm Ermias.'' Lauren's husband said shaking Kiana's hand.
''That's a beautiful name. I'm kiana, it's nice to meet you. Let's get this one to the room.'' Kiana laughed a bit pressing the elevator button when they all were inside.
"I still love you Ki.'' Mike stated softly.
"I know michael.. i love you too.''
"Girl he's been talking about you.. a lot and your daughter.. he loves you two very much.'' Lauren assured her.
''That's good to know.'' Kiana did a sigh of relief to herself, lauren watched as a tear drop rubbing her back softly.
"it's ok, you two are gonna be fine. Trust me i cussed him out for you, I'm not on the clock right now either.. so he deserved it...Drunk ass.'' Lauren chuckled trying to lighten Kiana's mood.
"For real, i thought i was gon' have to carry this nigga on my shoulders." Ermias laughed shaking his head.
Once they made it to the floor, kiana unlocked the door with her key card, Ermias helped mike to the bed.
"All right man, Take care of yourself, remember what i said.''
Mike just gave him a thumbs up. He could barely see anything right now, the room was spinning.
Lauren said her goodbye to mike, although he was drifting off to sleep. Kiana walked Lauren and Ermias out into the hallway.
''Thanks again for bringing him here, i really appreciate it.''
''It's nothing , i just wanted to make sure he got to you safely." Lauren pulled Kiana into a tight hug, she could tell she really needed one. Kiana hugged back immediately letting her tears fall. she really needed a friend like a Lauren, and instantly felt why mike always had a urge to talk to her. Her vibe and spirit was very much needed in her life too.
Ermias smiled looking on at them, then he started yawning. ''Aww shit.'' he stretched out.
"Let me go, this old man is getting sleepy.'' Lauren said rolling her eyes walking over to him.
"Damn right.'' Ermias laughed showing his bright smile as Lauren started playing.
"You two are a beautiful couple.'' Kiana smiled laughing along with them.
"Thank you, she be making me look better.''
"Yeah, i did good.'' Lauren boasted looking up at him.
"You did great.'' Ermias said pulling her into him, he kissed her forehead and couldn't stop smiling looking down at her.
''Well i'm going to bed now, you two please get home safely. Thanks for everything.'' Kiana said as she unlocked the door again.
"Thank you, we will.'' Lauren stated waving goodbye before her and Ermias went their own way.
Kiana walked into the room, locking the door. Mike wasn't in the bed anymore, he was now throwing up in the toilet. She shook her head watching as he puked his guts out, and held his hair back for him. Afterwards she found an extra toothbrush she had, helping him brush his teeth, and lead him back to bed, taking his clothes off.
"You ain't gotta do this to me, all you gotta do is ask.'' He stated slurred his words.
''Boy please.'' Kiana laughed shaking her head, she grabbed a bottle of cold water putting it on his side of the nightstand.
'Ada...with..your parents.''
''Yeah, i know. I told you i dropped her off, remember?'' Kiana plugged her phone up getting underneath the cover.
"oh.. yeah. Goodnight Ki.'' Mike mumbled in confusion.
"Goodnight.'' Kiana said as she watched his eyes closed slowly, she fell asleep shortly right after him.
__________________________________
Ja'cione walked into his house after a long night to himself, he went for a long drive to clear his head, he went into his room seeing Ari asleep on his side of the bed. He didn't know she was coming over, but he had already given her his spare key. So she was welcomed there anytime. He smiled at the sight of him coming home to her. There was no better feeling than him coming home seeing his girl in his bed asleep. Closing her laptop, he plugged it up placing it on his dresser. Once he walked into the bathroom, he came across a note card on the counter with Ari's writing on it.
''Hi Ja'cione, I'll most likely be asleep when you come in, I apologize for being distant this week. I've been frustrated with deadlines for my social media accounts, and my papers that are due. I'm stressed... honestly i'm over everything. I was this close to giving up, but then i thought about you and for some reason i kept going for all of us. Thanks for always giving me something to look forward to. I love you.''
P.S: Please, don't wake me up, i need to rest. Now turn the card over.''
Ja'cione turned the card over, although he was smiling, he was still confused as he read it.
''Look up at the mirror, our future is attached. I can't wait to experience this new beginning with you.''
Ja'cione followed the directions and almost fainted seeing the positive pregnancy test on the mirror.
"Oh shit.'' he said loudly pacing the floor back and forth he was excited but also nervous. He almost lost his balance trying to keep quiet. But he couldn't keep his composure.
"Let's Gooooo.'' Ja'cione said looking at himself in the mirror. He really was about to be someone's dad. His thoughts were all over the place he always wanted kids, whether it was a boy or girl, he would love his child the same way.
He stepped into his shower happily, he already wanted the baby to come tomorrow, he couldn't wait to tell everyone. He was the one giving Ada somebody to play with and he loved it, and couldn't wait to tell her first, he knew she could keep a secret for now...because she couldn't talk.
Once he dried off, he lotioned up, brushing his teeth and lastly, he did his skincare routine before getting in the bed with ari. He snuggled up behind her, he knew he wasn't supposed to wake her up but he couldn't help it. he turned her towards him kissing all over her face and lips. She opened her eyes a little smiling before going back to sleep. Placing his hand on her stomach, he went down kissing all over her little belly. Ari woke up one time and he was still up talking to their creation.
"Listen whatever you are, don't be hogging up the titties though because i want some too, I love you mean it.'' He was joking but ari knew he was serious which made her chuckle to herself.
He literally talked himself to sleep.
