          "How you want to handle this?" My vision clouded, voices currently sounded muffled because all I could seem to hear was my heart pounding in my ears.

"I have bail money"

"Adoure-

I raised my hand at my best friend Morgan not wanting to hear her protest at the moment.

"I think I deserve to show my fucking ass, everybody can't be perfect like you!" Morgan flinched at my tone, I swiped tears off my face roughly.

"Adoure, I want to help you, I'm on your side"

I chuckled bitterly shaking my head. I didn't see how she could be on my side when it was about her cousin, my soon to be ex-fiancé.

"So since you tryna help, you tell me what I should do Morg?"

She looked over to her husband Kori a mutual friend of ours for help with this fucked up situation that was unfolding.

"I think we need to let them handle it, you too pregnant to be in their business" Morgan sucked her teeth resting her hands on her round belly carrying my goddaughter for two more months.

"I think we should take you home give you time to think on what you want to do"

"Go home and think? Look where the fuck we at Morg!"

I semi yelled pointing my finger to a huge sign on the wall that read "Labor and Delivery" with a stork above it carrying a baby in a white sheet.

"Baby leave it alone we only here for support"

A text in the middle of the night from my fiancé's ex. A picture of my man holding a baby with the time stamp of the picture which was hours before he left for "work".

"I can't let you go to jail over a man, cousin or not it's not worth it"

"Morgan, I don't give a fuck about jail" I looked her in the eyes to show her how serious I was.

My stomach was churning just picturing him with another woman's baby, I took a deep breath to stop myself from throwing up but I felt like I was being punched in the gut.

"I need air" I hopped up to head to the elevators to get some fresh air before confronting my soon to be ex.

"Adoure? Baby"

Benny called out to me with a look of shock, he looked back at his cousin and best friend with hands on top of his head.

" I need fucking air" I pushed the elevator button aggressively multiple times until the doors slid open.

"Baby, wait!"

I clicked the button quickly to shut the doors of the elevator. I breathed in and out to calm myself and to stop the ugly cry that was creeping up on me.
