Days After (Book 2 Of The BDA Series) COMPLETED

chapter 23... What Are You?

We dropped Dinela and Alero at their place before mom, Mavery and I head home, I was scared and worried out of my mind, what is all this? Why is all this happening to me? Why me?
We reached home and I walked quickly into the house and head to my room but mom called out to me, I had to stop, I didn't want to talk to anyone right now but I know mom won't even listen to my shit.

"Axymah dear what's wrong?" She asked as she walked towards me.

"Nothing mom, I'm fine." I told her.

"You're not fine honey I can see it in your eyes please tell me what's bothering you, what did Debby gold tell you? I want to know the whole thing." She said and pulled me towards the living room, Mavery was standing further away from us.

"Mom I'll tell you later."

"No, I want to know, tell me now!"
She demanded, there is nothing getting me out of this one, where do I begin? How will I tell you? You'll be devastated and heart broken, you're pregnant I don't want to stress you, if anything happens to you or your baby because of me..... I won't be able to forgive myself.
As I was about to speak the door bell rang, thank goodness.

"Saved by the bell." Mavery said with a smile.
So she does know, why didn't she tell me then? She did say I have to figure it out myself, oh goodness.

"Who is it? Come in." Mom said, without even waiting for a reply, the person that walked through the door was the last person I ever wanted to see, I don't even ever want to see her, My Biological Mom.
Mom turned to the back to see who it was and immediately stood up, I did so too and we went five feet close to her, she was standing right in front if the door.

Mom hasn't seen her before but she has seen pictures of her so she can definitely identify her, I refuse to call her my mom anymore so I'll call her by her birth name, Habeeba.

"Habeeba? What are you doing here?" Mom asked harshly, "leave now."

"I am only here to see my daughter not to fight." She said calmly.

"Which daughter? The one you abandoned?" Mom asked not raising her voice so much because of her condition.

"I didn't abandon her, she was with my lover." My so called biological mom said.

"Why did you never come to see her? Why? She was abused, molested, violated, almost killed all because you left her with your lover."

"Ex lover," Habeeba corrected "my child." She said turning to me instead of answering mom's question.

"I'm not your child, let that be clear to you." I said firmly.

"I wanted to come see you but I couldn't and I'm sorry." She said.

"Really for over nine years?"

"My child please you have to hear me out, I can explain everything to you please my child." She said pleading, I wanted to hear what she had to say badly, she is still my mom, she might have a tangible reason.

"There is nothing for you to say or explain, leave my house right now and never return, go away." Mom said fuming, you do not want to anger a pregnant woman tsk tsk tsk.

"I am not speaking to you but my daughter." Habeeba said.

"Mom let's hear her out, she might have a good reason for what she did." I reasoned with her.

"But Axymah..." She wanted to argue but I stopped her.

"No buts, come seat." I said and I carried a char from the dining for her to seat on then put a pillow at her back, then turned to Habeeba.
