My Best Friend's Boyfriend

Chapter 22

*Emory's Pov*
I so don't understand him, I tell him that his baby is kicking and all he has to say is that's good. Something is up. He accidentally left his phone on the ottoman so I took it and did some investigating. Luckily he didn't have a passcode on it so I was able to get right in. I immediately clicked on the messages icon with 47 unread messages. The first one was from Lisa.
Lisa🔐💏- baeeeee your side of the bed is cold now 😭
It took everything in me not to go find him and go upside his head. But, I'm going to play along to see how far this thing can go.
Me- wrd...what you tryna do tonite 😏
Lisa🔐💏- you already know what we do 😏😈
Me- ard bae 😘
Lisa🔐💏- make sure u can get out cause you know u on lockdown 🔐😂😂
Me- whteva man. Jus be ready 😍
Lisa🔐💏- yes sir 💜
I was fuming. I slapped his phone down on the couch. I got so angry, I felt the baby kicking and it warmed my heart. I put my feet back on the ottoman and closed my eyes. Kendrick finally came back in the room. "Okay bay, you ready for the best foot rub you ever had?" Kendrick said. "Nah, don't touch me. Why did you leave Kendrick when I told you that the baby was kicking?" I asked. He put his head in his hands and started crying. "I just....I can't believe that something that I made is growing in you. I can't believe how beautiful you are, I can't believe how happy you make me, I've never smiled so much in my life, Emory...you are my sun, moon and stars...I could never hurt you." He said and I became teary-eyed because he was lying. The damage is done. I looked at him with blurred vision and handed him his phone with the text messages pulled up. I took my engagement ring off and went upstairs. He ran after me, but I shut him down. "Baby open the door right now!" He yelled. I didn't answer. "OPEN IT!" He became angrier. "WHO ARE YOU YELLING AT?!" I screamed back. "Please open the door." He said. I inched closer to the door when my phone rung. I answered it. "Is this Emory?" The voice said. "Yeah." I replied. "I just wanted to inform you that your mother and step-dad have passed away, they were involved in a fatal car crash, we will be shipping their belongings, you are almost eighteen so you will not have to reside with an immediate family member if you do not desire. Sorry for your lost." Kendrick busted into the room in just enough time to catch me from collapsing. I was shaking and crying hysterically, he hung up my phone and sat me in the bed. "Baby...what's the matter?!" He asked. "M-m-my parents died." I stuttered and started crying. He walked out of the room and smashed his phone on the ground, came back in and let me cry in his arms all night. I woke up in the middle of the night with pains in my stomach. The baby was probably under too much stress, it couldn't sleep either so I went down stairs and got something to eat. I felt his arms around me and he said "Don't scare me like that, I rolled over and you wasn't there I thought you left me." He said. "The baby was awake and I was hungry so I just came down here." I said. "Here I'll fix you something." He said. I sat down on the counter and he got some fruit and yogurt out and and then made some grilled cheese. "You okay beautiful?" He asked me. Of course I wasn't. "Yeah I'm fine." I said. He finished making the food and I went back up to bed. I'm all alone now, just my baby and I. Because, we all know that some boys never change, they will drop their wife for some quick heartless cold love.
