🥀Chapter Nine 🥀

- Having the worth of second chances for love..?-

Michael

I walked into the bedroom and Amber was sitting up with her arms crossed. I took a deep breath and closed the bedroom door.

"You could have slammed it shut." She said sarcastically. Laying there with no remorse.

"What has gotten into you anyways?" I said as I walked towards the bed and sat on the edge. She rolled her eyes and looked at me.

"Michael, I don't want her here. She has her own damn family. Why did she ask you to stay here?" She said.

"Amber, listen to what you just said, you just came out of your mouth and said that you don't want her here but my question is why?" I asked her.

"Just like I said to her and to you, I am not being in competition with the rebound bitch. And she has a child with another man." I stopped her.

"You are going to stop fucking saying that. The baby did not ask to be here but that is her daughter and she is as sweet as she is. And at the end of the day, that's my best friend since birth. And for your information, her boyfriend kicked her out for another bitch. She is in a depressed state and I am chose to fucking help her." I said.

"Ohhh.. so now, you want to cheat huh?" She started raising her voice. My eyes grew wide at that sentence. Never in my mind have I ever wanted to cheat on her and it makes me wonder about that so called lie about work and the container.

"So you really think that, don't you? So how about this, you want to tell me how your supposed to be on call at work and just in the nick of time, you managed to come back from work, just to "enjoy dinner again" and talk shit to Keyann?" I said crossing my arms.

"Fuck her! This is about us Michael! Her feelings aren't as broken as mine are." She said putting her hands on her chest. I stood up this time pacing back and forth, rubbing the back of my neck. I walked over to her side and kneeled in front of her.

"I will say this one more time, try me again with that "Fuck her" comment. And how the fuck is your feelings broken when you broke my feelings on multiple occasions. You think I'm not broken too?" I asked her.

She smacked her lips and got under the covers. She cuts the lamp out right while I was still sitting there. I scoffed, "Yeah right, your on call but your ass is in the bed. Good night, I love you." I said as I got up and walked out the room.

I walked towards Keyann's room to check on her. She had her back turned and her hand carefully on the baby. I walked close enough and watch as her and the baby's breathing was in sync.

"I love you too Keyann." I whispered softly. I walked back out closing the door and continued down stairs to the kitchen. I went to do some small cleaning around the dinning table. I washed the dishes and wiped the countertops.

After about twenty minutes, I sat by the bar with a glass of whiskey on ice. I needed this as tonight, I was about to become stressed out. This was my week off and now my wife is tripping. My best friend and her baby live with me. I'm almost starting to have my old feelings come back again for Keyann. When she hurts, I hurt and it's been this way for years. When I hurt, she hurts. That's why I was glad that I didn't hold back when she spoke on Amber and having my children.

She was always that type of person that I could talk to and she was always there for me, when Joseph used to abuse me. She always had my back. I'm secretly jealous of Amos because she gave the supposed to be woman of my life, that's our baby and he just basically discarded her like a fucking empty box. He better not let me catch his ass on the street.
