CHAPTER TWENTY
I jumped awake screaming. Nick sat up next to me, and hugged me close. "What's wrong ma?" he asked. "I had the worst nightmare ever," I panted with my hand over my chest. "What happened?" Nick asked. "It seemed so real; Terry raped me, his sister beat me, he shot me, and he killed Bahja—and he held our daughter," I tried to fight back the tears but it was no use. "Don't cry, it was just a dream," he said, rubbing my shoulder. "It seemed too real!" I got choked up in my sobs. "It wasn't, stop crying," he firmly said. I reached on the bed side table and grabbed my cell phone. I quickly dialed Bahja's number. She answered on the fourth ring.
"Bahja are you okay?" I rushed out. "I'm okay Maya, is everything alright over there?" she asked. I sighed. "I'm a bit spooked out. I had the craziest dream," I replied. I eyed Nick as he laid back on the bed, and turned to his side. "What happened?" she asked. I explained the whole dream to her. "It's not going to happen Maya, it's just a dream," she said. "I don't know, could this be a preminision?" I asked. "I'm not sure Maya, just chill out for now," she reassured. "Okay," I sighed. "And do you know what time it is?" she exclaimed. "Five forty-five, I'm sorry," I said apologetically. She grunted. "I need to get back to sleep Maya, damn-" I cut her off, "We need to meet tomorrow, I'm coming over later," I said. "Okay," she slowly said. "I love you," I said. "I love you too Maya, see you later," Bahja said. "Okay, bye," we both hung up. I laid my phone on the bed side table and laid back. I sighed, and drifted off to sleep.
Later through the day or should I say afternoon, I was awaken by Nichayah sucking on my nose."Hey fat momma," I cooed, snuggling her. She laughed at my every tickle. My kids were the cutest five month old babies ever. As she and I played, Nick walked in the bedroom with Nichayan in his arms. "I see she woke you up," he laughed. I nodded, giggling. "Did they eat?" I asked. He nodded. "They even ate baby food and mashed potatoes," he added. "Daddy of the year," I smirked. He smiled wide. "I mean, I try. Anything for my kids," he said. I nodded in agreement. "Well, she's coming with me today and he can stay with you. We're going out," I stood up with Nichayah. I undressed the both of us, and ran us a warm bath in the master bathroom. I pulled my hair into a bun and undressed myself. I threw my robe on, and strolled over to my bed. I picked Nichayah up and undressed her. I took her into the bathroom and we took a relaxing bath. After our bath, Nichayah was sleeping. After draining the tub with her in my arms, I wrapped her up into a towel. I wrapped myself up in a towel, and laid Nichayah on the bed. I lotioned her, and dressed her warm. I slid her headband on her head, and got myself dressed. Today I was going casual: skinny jeans, and a grey snug t-shirt. I shuffled my hair, and slid Nichayah's pacifier in her mouth. I fascined her into her carrier grabbed my shades. I picked up the carrier, diaper bag and my purse. I walked out of the bedroom, heading down the hallway."Well, my ladies look cute," Nick smirked. I chuckled, shaking my head. "We'll see you later," I pecked his lips and walked out the door. I fascined the carrier into the car seat, sitting the diaper bag next to it. After making sure it was secured, I got into the driver's seat. I tossed my purse on the passenger seat, and cranked up my car. I pulled away from the house, and drove down the street.
Driving down a busy street, I noticed a black Lexus following me. Every turn I made, the car made the turn. It creeped me all the way out. I took some back roads, and couple of alleys to lose the car, and I did. I turned onto momma Sham's street (which Bahja did live with her) and quickly pulled into her driveway. I threw my purse over my side shoulder and got out of the car. I scurried to Nichayah's car door, and grabbed the diaper bag; I took the carrier out of the car seat. I quickly walked up to the door, and gently knocked. Bahja opened the door and smiled wide."Hi babes!" she squealed, hugging me. She took the carrier from me, walked into the house. We walked over to the couch and sat down. She immediately took Nichayah out of her carrier, and almost woke her up. She snuggled her, placing kisses all on her chubby cheeks.
"So what did you have to tell me?" she asked. I showed her my ring, and she gasped. "Really?" she semi yelled. I motioned for her to be more quiet. "My bad," she apologized. "Well, yes it's true. We need to do some wedding planning," I grinned. "Of course!" she cooed. Momma Sham walked into the living room.
"Hey Maya, baby!" she smiled. We shared a hug. "How was your birthday party?" she asked. "It was very fun," I nodded. "I'm glad you enjoyed it," she patted my shoulder. I graduated before I became an adult, by the way. I sat back down, and she gently took Nichayah away from Bahja. "I would like to kidnap her for several hours," she pecked the baby's cheeks. Bahja sucked her teeth. "Oh child, you'll be alright," Momma Sham waved Bahja off. Momma Sham grabbed the diaper bag and went upstairs.
Bahja turned to me. "I am so happy for you Maya!" she squealed clapping her hands together. We shared a close hug. "All of this wedding planning we have to do," she smiled. "Well, we can get a wedding planner and the wedding be in Atlanta," I said. She nodded. "For sure, we can do that," she nodded. "Well, we can look online," she said, reaching for her laptop on the coffee table. She browsed through the internet with me looking too. "I think we found our match Bee," I said. She nodded in agreement. This website had many different beautiful venues in Atlanta. I loved this planner. I fished for my phone and dialed her number.
