Desiree's POV
I stood in the isles of the deli panicing. What was he gonna say about Delilah? Would he say anything at all?

"Des what the fuck was that all about?" Nai asked covering Delilah's ears.

"Nai, David was right there," I raked my fingers through my hair in disbeleif.

"Mami can I get a snack?" Delilah asked looking around. I just nodded as she ran off into the isle.

"Calm down," Nai grabbed my hands and kissed them gently. "Mi amor you're gonna need to talk to him eventually."

I couldn't consintrate and then I saw him. I saw David walk in and he stopped.

He saw me too.

He ran over and grabbed me, kissing me passionately.

Or atleast thats what I was imagining.

In reality he stood there, stuck. He looked like he was trying to walk over but couldn't and before I could move Delilah came running back.

"Mami! Mami!" She jumped into my arms and hugged my neck. "That guy over there said that hes my uncle, is that true?"

I looked over where she was and I saw Ethan. I gave him the warmest smile.

"Yes baby," I saw the looks David shot me. He didn't know about Delilah. I was planning on holding that information off for a while. "How about you go take to him mija."

Delilah ran towards him and started telling him everything he needed to know about her.

Now it was time for me to do the same with David but before I could move he was infront of me.

His eyes still shined but his face was painted in confusion. "Can we talk?"

I could only nod my head then he led me outside.

Everyone cleared off of the step he was sitting on before and as we sat the cool breeze brushed against my skin.

"so how you been?" He asked after a minute of silence. He was messing with his ring, a sign he was stressed.

"I've been good," I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear and took a deep breath. Inhala, Exhala. "How about you? Did your music career ever take off?"

"I've been good and it did actually," He smiled and allowed himself to let his hands relax. "So you have a daughter?"

I almost flinched but I knew that it would come up soon enough. I knew he would want to hear about her soon enough.

And soon enough I knew i'd have to say, "Yes actually," With a deep exhale i finished the statement. "Shes our daughter."

His face didn't show anger or confusion or sadness. It showed happiness and relief.

"Oh my god," He stated with tears falling down his face. "Oh my god. I really have a daughter."

"Her name is Delilah," I started to tell him. I wanted him to know all about his baby girl. "She loves gymnastics and sour candy. Shes really hyper active. And she has the corniest jokes."
