Love Isn't Enough (L.I.E)

Ch. 24- Secrets Pt. 2

**Picture of Krystal in the m/m.**

This is a continuation of last chapter. More like a filler.

The character in this book IS NOT portrayed as the real Crystal (August's ex in real life). Some events are similar and related to the actual person, but the character is different. Cool? Cool.

However, the girl in the m/m DOES have a past with August Thotsina too.... ☕️

Enjoy!

Krystal.

The fact that August has agreed to meet up with me is beyond me. When I give him this news, I just hope he can see it as an opportunity for us to be in a good place. Maybe even getting back together at some point.

I want him to remember that I had his heart first, way before that Kourtney bitch. And I haven't let go of it, even after the breakup.

I heard a loud banging on my door. I peeped around the corner to see Maddy sleeping in her room, then headed toward the front door.

I opened the door and saw August standing there, looking sexy as ever. Damn. Yea I cheated on him in the past, but ain't no way I'm letting go of all that fineness.

"Hey August."

He gave me a stern head nod.

"Come on in." I stepped to the side, allowing him access into my apartment.

"Nah, I'm good. Make this quick."

He didn't budge. He stood at the door waiting for my response.

"Uh I think you should come in. I have a lot to say and you might want to take a seat after I say it all."

He sucked his teeth and walked through the door, into my apartment. He didn't sit though, he stood. Still the same stubborn ass nigga.

"So why am I hea'? What was so important that you had ta' tell me to my face?"

I took a seat, putting on the most saddest and depressive facial expression ever.

"I-I don't know where to even start, to be honest."

"Just talk man, I'on got all night." He looked at his watch, then shoved his hands in his pockets as he remained standing. He seemed the least bit affected by my antics.

I cleared my throat and started. "Do you remember, 3 years ago when we were together? We'd always talk about having a future together and having a family?"

"Get ta' the point." He interjected.

"Well, I took that into consideration and went off the pill during the last parts of our relationship."

He stayed silent. His face held no expression.

I continued. "Well, I know that was around the time I cheated, but I never had unprotected sex with Joe." I lied.

Truth is, me and Joe had unprotected sex often. But, so did Aug and I. Don't judge me.

"What'chu try'na say Krystal? I need you ta' get ta' the point."

"What I'm try'na say is, there's a very huge possibility you may be Maddison's father." I gathered every sad thought I can think of to produce some tears. "I'm pretty sure you are, as a matter of fact. Because you were the only one I had unprotected sex with." I cried.

August.

"The fuck you just say?"

"I said, your Maddison's father. You got me pregnant almost 4 years ago August. "

I think the whole world stopped at that moment for me. I couldn't believe the shit Krystal was telling me right now.

"So, lemme get this straight. Four years after you getting pregnant, you call me over here to tell me that I might possibly have a daughter wit'chu? You must be out ya' fuckin' mind." I threw my hands in the air out of disbelief.

"You were so angry at me about what went down between Joe and I, that I didn't know what to do. And John was there for me so he claimed her. It's not my fault! You left me!"

"Cause you fuckin' cheated! Don't put that shit on me like I did wrong. How the fuck was I supposed to know? I swear you lucky I don't hit women, cause I feel like fuckin' ya' shit up right na'."

I calmed myself down as she kept crying. Why am I here? Why am I doing this? I shoulda just kept my ass home.

I thought coming here would put closure in Krystal's heart, and I wouldn't have to deal wit' her ass again . But now she telling me she got pregnant by me? If this turns out ta' be true, I gotta deal with her ass for life man.

What the fuck am I supposed to say ta' Kourtney? I know this happened way before her and I even met, but telling her she not gon' be the mother of my first child, but my second, is gonna crush her.

She wiped her face and started talking. I swear I hated her ass even more.

"Look, this can either go a few different ways. If you don't want to be a part of Maddison's life, I understand. We can just do child support. Or, you can man up and be a father to her."

"Look, don't be giving me no options. Ain't shit happening til' we get a DNA test. I'm not introducing myself into that lil girls life if I'm not fa' sure her daddy. That wouldn't be fair to her. And she been knowin' that nigga Joe all her life as her daddy. Did you think about that?"

She looked at me blankly, I'm guessing cause her dumbass never thought of that.

"You ain't shit fa' not even considering those things Krystal." I spat.

She wiped her eyes and stood up.
"Fine, to court we go. This will be perfect. I take your ass to court, and collect 3 years worth of her life that you missed. Boy the media sure would eat that shit up real good, right Mr. Alsina?" She turned her nose up at me and smirked.

I couldn't believe she'd really use this against me and my career. There's no way I could let this shit get to court. I'm just gonna have to take care of this shit on my own.

"Man, fuck this shit. I'm out."

I exited out her door and slammed it as hard as I could, wishing the shit would brake.

I got into my car and started it. I sat in the parking lot for what seemed like forever. Ain't no way I'm letting this bitch jeopardize my career and my relationship with Kourtney over some unsure shit. What am I supposed to do now? How do I explain this to my family? Just when I thought things were getting on the right track, this happens. Remind me to NEVER take Travis' advice, ever again...
