The Law of Attraction | Vol I

Love, Life.

"Okay yeah, make sure you do"
" I'll send the screen shots now..."
" please do! Since you want to argue about other people's relationships-"
" I'm just letting you know, as a woman"
" so was you being a woman when you replied to him?"
" that's your man not mine... I wanted to get a bag that's all... I don't love these niggas"
" he gave you money?"
" $10,000 - in cash-"
" when was this?"
" last week... I sent the screenshots-" the I checked and it was confirmed, text messages between him and the unknown number caller I now had I.D'd as Chanel Amor, a singer from LA who worked closely with some mutual peers including Eric Bellinger and Hitmaker.
"Okay, cool" I hung up and had my number changed, while I composed myself and looked for more information within the screenshots.

One was of her flirting and asking for some "help with getting things together", he was flirtatious, but tame as he did say he wanted to help her get back on her feet, not his dick. I guess I didn't want to see it as anything deeper, didn't want to sully our new start by bringing up old shit. The second screenshot was her sending him nudes where he replied with the eyes emoji, and then the last where he said he was in love, but wanted to be friends. It was all seemingly evidence in his favour, he was just trying to take the mature approach to rejecting a clout chaser. My guessing and wondering led me to being unable to sleep, and then I knew, I had to address it. She wanted me to know something, she wanted it to be an issue and approached me looking for one, as if she felt it was acceptable. I didn't like the fact she felt she could interrupt what we had and tried to. It was was working, and as usual so were we, with our respective album's now about to come out and promoting his like crazy. I was planning for y performance with him at the Grammys two weeks later, and would then be hosting my album release party. We were busy but he always made time for us, as did I. Sending him reminders of home, and he would fly over for a spa day and amazing dinner, or fly me out to just be in his house when he came home. We were publicly accepted as a couple now, rarely seen apart and were asked to feature in Harpers Bazaar for a special interview, our first as an item. Then Elle and Cosmopolitan kept featuring outfits from date nights and private posts, as did blogs who began pedalling a story of me and his baby's mother clashing. It wasn't a lie, but the drama depicted fell far from reality, and his baby's mother wanted to make her position clear too.

We had Adonis for the night and it was one of the first times we were both with him overnight. Accordingly, I took care of things with his dad, up at 3am to feed him and change him. Aubrey took a picture of me half asleep, but smiling , as I rocked the baby back to sleep and he captioned it something sweet.
" can't wait to make this woman my wife, first-"
The post sparked controversy and in-depth conversation about us, some predicting we were already married from the ring he gifted me. There was also a huge debate over the way men spoil and praise their girlfriends compared to how they hate their baby mommas. People thought it was mature on my end, showing love and care to a child fathered behind my back. But, others thought I was dumb and naïve for thinking this baby was just a one time thing, really dying into love with a man like Drake. I believed him, believing in us more than everything. Plus, Adonis is adorable, I felt closer to him every time we had him but his mum was unhappy and began talking to the press about not wanting me around their son, because we were "just a fling", and her son was very affectionate towards me. She said she didn't us to affect him.

" we're a fling?-"
" you know what you are to me, and my son"
" it's so weird because I was nothing but good to him!"
" I know baby...she can say what she wants, i know you and my son loves it here... she just doesn't want anyone to be happy because she's not."
" I don't want to be around him, if she feels like that!"
" you are here and that's something she has to accept-"
" I want you to remember... your son comes first, no matter what she feels, we have to keep his happiness priority" he looked at me like I was crazy.
" it's okay Ly"
" I'm sorry okay -"
" don't be, she's bugging, not you, I'm sorry... but I know our kids won't have to worry about a thing and neither do you"
" you think she still wants you!?" He nodded
" she tried to trap me with him, this is why I didn't want to deal with her..."
" does your mum?"
" yeah... she has to... or I'll never see my baby"
He was holding me close to him, in his huge bed as we scrolled through my TL before I decided I wanted to go live.
