CHAPTER 15
-Journey
I've been excited about going out with vontae all day long and I can't wait until we're alone, just the two of us. I know it's going to be hard but I'm going to have to tell vontae about me being pregnant. I don't know how it will turn out but I know it's the right thing to do. It was 6 O'clock when I decided to get ready because I take forever and I needed the whole hour and 30 minutes. I took a long steaming hot shower that made me feel like I was in a sauna. I washed my weave because I wanted the wet and wavy look tonight. Once I got out of the shower and lathered my body down in my Victoria secret's lotion with glitter in it, I put on my push up cheetah print bra with a hint of red in it and afterwards my cheetah print thong that matches my bra. I got dressed in my outfit and put on rose gold assecories to complement my white dress and brown boots. I did my eye lashes and gathered all of my belongings and put them in my purse along with an extra pair of panties. I was ready. *DING DONG* "Who is it?", I yelled coming down the stairs. I looked out the peep hole and saw a white Honda and I knew it was vontae. I opened the door with a huge smile on my face to only be greeted by open arms.-Vontae
"Damn you look good", I said licking my lips at the sight of journey thick ass in this dress. She looked like a gallon of milk that I wouldn't mind drinking. "Thanks, so do you", she replied blushing. I grabbed her hand and walked her to the car and opened her door for her. Once she was in, she leaned over to open mine. We drove for about 30 minutes until we pulled up in front of Jewel Bako. We got out, walked in and followed the host to our seat. I pulled journey seat out for her and she just couldn't stop smiling. Seeing her smile only made me smile. We ordered our food and talk for two hours straight. I just love being in her company. There's nothing else I would rather be doing right now. "When you gone be my girl?", I asked her. "I just got out of a bad relationship, I don't think I can do it again", she said. "You won't have to do it again because I'm not that nigga, I know what you're worth and I know what you deserve", I said pulling out the gift bag with her Rolex in it. Her eyes got big when she saw that the outside of the bag said Rolex. "What's this?", she asked. "You can read right?", I asked laughing loud. "Haha, very funny", she said. "Thank you so much, I love it. I can't believe you got this for me. I really appreciate it but I can't take it.", she said. "Yes you can, I bought it for you and I'm not taking no for an answer, it's yours now.", I said. "I love it", she said. "I have something to tell you." She said. "What's up baby?", I said.-Journey
Here goes nothing! "I'm pregnant vontae and I don't want you to look at me any different and I'll understand if you don't want nothing to do with me anymore", I rushed out leaving me breathless. "Now why would I want that and you pregnant with my baby?", he said. I almost spit my drink out but I caught myself. "Excuse me?", I said trying my hardest not to laugh. "You don't remember that night we had sex without a condom?", he asked. I thought back and I barely remember that night because I was damn near drunk. I don't recall him putting on a condom but I doubt if this is his baby. "Um, I think", I answered him slowly. "I never pulled out of you, something was just telling me not to and my man just wouldn't let me do it, it was too good.", he said with a smirk on his face. What he is saying is starting to make a lot of since. I didn't respond to him. I figured he was just being stupid and I didn't want him to think I was a slut by actually thinking he was the father of this baby. "It was about three months ago, and I'm pretty sure you're almost three months pregnant and that would explain your little pudge and why you ate both of our food", he said laughing. I tried so hard not to laugh with him because this was a serious moment. What he is saying is really starting to add up but there is absolutely no way to tell because I was having sex with quentin as well. "The only way for us to actually know if this is true is to have a prenatal DNA paternity test", I said a bit embarrassed that I know about that. "Well, we can do that first thing tomorrow just let me know how much", he said. I was at a lost for words for the rest of the night after that. I just can't stop playing back to that night in my head. The weird thing is it's like he knew I was pregnant and he knew it was his baby. "Did you know I was pregnant?", I asked him. "How would I know that?", he asked. "I don't know", I said brushing off the silly idea. We finished our dinner and went back to his place. I text my mom letting her know I was staying out and I enjoyed the rest of my night with the idea of this being Vontae's baby in the back of my head all night. First thing the next morning, me and vontae took a trip to the clinic. We got the DNA test and the results should be back tomorrow. I pray this is his baby, this would make things perfect. I wouldn't ever have to speak to Q again even though he's already on my block list but I'll be able to fully move on with my life with a new start without a constant reminder of him in this baby. Me and Vontae decided to stay in the house for the rest of the day doing nothing.-Quentin
So it's true, I have HIV and I got it from the stupid bitch Lauren. I have a hit out on this bitch head pregnant or not, her and that baby going to die. I don't know why I ever put my trust in that hoe. I knew she was a slut and I still fucked her raw. Dumb ass move on my part. All this shit got me wishing I still had journey in my life. I don't ever see her in school and when I text or call her it says her phone is off. She must be fell off. Who knows, I just know I miss her and our baby. Maybe I'll go pay them a visit soon. I feel like my life is over and it don't matter if I'm here or dead. I don't have nobody. I been thinking about taking my own life lately but I don't think I have the heart to. I keep going back and forth to different clinics hoping it was a mistake and I still end up getting the same results. I guess that's what I get for being young N'dumb.-Journey
The text results came in today and I'm waiting on vontae to get back with my ice cream so we can open the envelope together. "Baby I'm back.", he yelled coming in the door. "It took you long enough", I said with a nonchalant attitude grabbing my ice cream from him. "Look what came in", I said showing him the big yellow envelope. "Let's open it", I said sounding excited.Dear,
Ms.Journey Bradwell and Mr.Vontae Jones the results for the fetus of Ms.Journey Bradwell show that you two are the biological parents. Mr.Vontae Jones you are 99.99999% the biological father."Omg, you were right", I said damn near screaming with excitement in my voice. "I know, I told you", he said like he knew all along. I'm so excited about this being Vontae's baby. He knows how to treat me and I know me and my baby won't ever have to want or need for anything and we will be buried in love from him. I'm so thankful that I chose me for once in my life. I should always come first to myself no matter what. Never again will I be young N' dumb.
