Life Goes On

"Yo, the party starts at like 7:00, are you almost ready?" I holler at Deja from the bathroom while I slip on my outfit.

"Yeah lemme just find my keys right quick" Deja hollers back.

Deja and I are getting ready to go to a small Christmas Eve kick back at Proofs place. I wasn't sure what was going on with Marshall. Proof seems to know what's going on but won't tell anyone. I feel like he is  hiding something big from me but I wasn't sure what.

"Aight let's go" I hear Deja say from the kitchen.

We get into the car and head to Proofs place. He lives about 10 minutes away from us.

"So do you know what's happening with Marshall?" I ask Deja.

"No but I know Proof knows but I don't wanna keep asking him ya know" she says glancing at me.

"Yeah... I wonder if he's gonna be here tonight" I say looking at Deja.

"Honestly I'm not sure" she says looking at me then looks back at the road. We were both kind of worried about him cause for the time I've know him, he's never ghosted everyone like this.
————————————————————

We walk into Proofs house and his small living room is filled with the smell of weed.

"Wassup ladies" Proof greets us and pulls Deja in for a hug and kiss. I go to the bathroom before sitting down to join them. I walk down the short hallway and as I turn the corner to go into the bathroom I ran into someone.

"Shit my bad" I hear and look up to see Marshall.

"Hey, what's up" I smile greeting him excitedly as I haven't seen him since my birthday party.

"Sup" he says walking right past me heading back to the living room. I frown at the way he just barley acknowledged me. I use the bathroom quickly then head back to the living room. I grab a beer and sit next to Deja joining their conversation.

"Yeah I'm planning on going to it next summer" I here Marshall say.

"That's dope, you definitely have a good chance at winning it" Deja says to Marshall.

"Where are you going" I ask Marshall referring to whatever he was just talking about.

"Uh just this hip hop music festival in Ohio I'm going to" he says quickly.

"Oh cool" I say and smile at him. He's acting strange towards me and I don't like it. I need to talk to him privately sometime tonight. The rest of the night is chill. We pass a blunt around as we all make conversation with each other. It's around 11:30pm and a few of the guys left already. I need to talk to Marshall, I keep thinking to myself.

"Hey Marshall can we talk" I lean towards his ear and ask him. He passes the blunt off to Danaun and nods at me. We get up and he leads me to an extra room in Proofs house.

"So what's up" he says as he sits down on an old couch that's in the room.

"What's going on with you?" I try to ask calmly and sit next to him. He looks at me and pauses.

"I- Rachel your going to be pissed" he says getting straight to the point.

"What is it? I'll be calm I promise" I say feeling extremely nervous. What the hell could possibly be so bad?

"Kim is in the hospital..." he says and looks at me wanting to say more. I give him a questioning look.

"Because.... She-she's going to give birth to my daughter in the next day or two" he says not looking at me. I look at him in total shock. I felt my entire world coming to a crash. My body went into complete shut down and I was left completely speechless. I was going to go crazy on this man.

"What the fuck Marshall? How could you lead me on when you had a whole pregnant baby mama? Why the fuck didn't you say anything about this shit? I mean congratu-fucking-lations on keeping the worlds biggest fucking secret from me!" I shout at him. I storm out of the room pissed and confused as can be.

"Rachel I'm so sorry" he says following me out the room into the living room where I see only Proof and Deja.

"No! Fuck you! I don't ever want to see or talk to you ever again!" I say with tears in my eyes.

"Rachel please" he says now with tears in his eyes also.

"Go be a father Marshall" Was the last thing I said to him.
