Promise

"What else do you need me to do?" Miracle asked me.

"Take the turkey out while I make sure everything is one the table." I didn't bother waiting for her to say anything I went straight to the dining room and started fixing the table the way I really wanted it. Major did a half ass job.

"Promise," Major called my name while walking into the room. "Go sit down I already did the table, why are you doing it over?"

"You didn't do it right and I don't need to sit down. I'm fine."

"What did the doctor tell you? Go sit down ma,"

"Major I'm fine, I know what I'm doing. Can you just entertain your guest please? Thank you." Shaking his head he walked out and went back to the living room.

I know I needed to sit my ass down but that wasn't going to happen. This was my first time having Thanksgiving at my house and the first big holiday Major and I are celebrating together so everything had to be perfect. I'm twenty six weeks into my pregnancy so it's important that I be very careful with myself and making sure I'm not doing too much but then again I'm a busy bee. I couldn't sit still even if I wanted to. Too much my ass, I got this.

The last six months have been stressful. I don't think I've ever dealt with so much insanity in all of my life. Macai was still missing; none of us had no idea where he was. Major looked everywhere and still came up with nothing. That alone was stressful because the two most important people in my life were hurting behind it. Don't get me wrong, I love Macai to death but I know Miracle and Major are taking this way harder than I was, which is very understandable.

As far as I know Major hasn't spoken to his father since he went over there when Macai first disappeared. He speaks to his mother every now and then but it's not like how it was before. As far as my parents go, I haven't spoken to them at all. I really don't have anything to say. They know I'm with Major, it's no secret now but neither one of them have reached out to me. It's sucks because I can't even speak to my mother and I would love for her to be with me while I'm pregnant with my first child but fuck it. If she wants to keep herself away, it's on her.

After I fixed the table the way I wanted to I went back into the kitchen. "Is the food done yet? I'm hungry as hell," Telly asked me.

"It's done but you still have to wait."

"The fuck? Why? Girl you have black people in here waiting. This kind of thing can cause a riot."

"Between who?" Miracle asked him.

"All of those fools in there watching that damn game. Side note Rashad is sexy, hook me up." Telly smirked at me.

"One he doesn't like what you have to offer." I laughed. "Two his girlfriend is in there with him, and your man is in there with him. Go hop on the nigga you brought up in here."

"By the way, he is fine as hell. Where did you meet him?"

"The club, he is something to look at huh?"

"He's very pretty, in a good way."

"True but what are we waiting for?"

"For you to take the food into the dining room and put it on the table. Thank you." I grinned at him before laughing at the screw face he gave me.

"You're so lucky your ass is pregnant with my muffin or it would have been on."

"I love you too!" I yelled at him while he took two dishes out to the dining room. "So Mir, how are you feeling?"
