My Plus Size Lover

Chapter 7

Monae'

Yess, it was finally graduation and I was looking at myself in the mirror. I was in my cap and gown. I couldn't believe I was actually graduating, I was going to receive my Masters Degree in Communication and Business.

"Come on, chile or we are going to be late" I heard my gramma hollered up the steps. I grabbed my phone and went downstairs. I saw August and his mother and the twins with their parents. Saraiya came around and apologizes for her behavior. I still don't trust the sneaky bitch.

"Alright guys, pictures time." I heard my gramma say. "How you gone tell me we running late and you trying to take pictures." I said as she was snapping pictures. I just laughed at her silliness.

We took our pictures and then headed for the cars to go to graduation. "August, where's your cap at, baby?" I asked as he was driving. "At home, I am wearing my bucket hat." I just laughed at his crazy ass. Graduation was long so they decided that they were going to keep it in the morning time which was a great idea.

"I am so proud of you" gramma said as she was attacking my face with kisses. "Thanks gramma" I said as I was looking August.

August picked me up and kissed me. "Congratulations" we both said to each other. I know Saraiya saw this and was a little jealous.

Once we arrived home gramma blasted the central air on high because we was smoking outside at graduation. There was a knock at the door and gramma went to get it as I was chit chatting with my friends.

"What are you doing here?" I heard my gramma say and I turned around to see but I couldn't.

"Ma, we came to see our little girl. We heard she was graduating from high school." My gramma just laughed at their stupidity.

"Rememba' y'all don't own her because she was too big for ya." I heard gramma spat.

"Gramma, who is at the door?" I asked as she open the door wider to let me see.

After all these years Nyla, and Jerome Jameson decides to show up.

"Hi baby" Nyla said

I just looked at them two. They looked the same. "Nyla, Jerome." I replied.

"Did you just addressed us by our names?" Jerome said.

"Yes I did, Jerome."

"Let's go Nyla, I told you this was going to happened. Your mother brain washed our child."

"Baby, I know what we did was wrong. We was only protecting you. I am sorry we just left you with gramma" Nyla pleaded. Gramma just scoffed then laughed.

"You don't mean that shit, Nyla. I taught you better than that." gramma said.

"Nyla, I forgive you. If it wasn't for gramma I wouldn't even be here accepting my Master's Degree." I said as I was holding my gramma's hand.

"Master's Degree? Not high school diploma?"

"No, Jerome. Maybe if y'all stay in contact with me like y'all said ya'll was, you would have known I graduated high school and just graduated from college." I said

"Why did y'all send me over here anyway?" I added. They ain't say a word. "Am I not good enough to be your daughter?" I asked just to see if they answer me. "No answer huh?"

"You were getting too fat." Jerome blurted out and Nyla just broke down.

I rolled my eyes. I didn't even have to feel miserable at all. I felt nothing but hate and anger.

"We sent you to camp to have fun. You didn't have any friends to play with in our neighborhood. Your father was supposed to send you to an all girl camp but when we dropped you off, I had realized you were at 'Fat Camp'. He said when you came home, you should be smaller than what you were. When you came home, the result said you gained 10 pounds. Your father thought you ate, but it was because you was trying so hard and gave up." Nyla said.

" You know what, because of you two, I tried to kill myself. I stabbed myself and was sent to the hospital. You know I thought you would have came to see if I was okay but you fuckers didn't. I was fighting for my life in that damn hospital because I wasn't feeling loved by anyone. My fucking gramma was my number 1 supporter and still is. You guys were there. Fuck you both and the kids y'all made after y'all left me."

"You better watch your fucking mouth, you fat bitch" Jerome said in m face and August came got him out my face. "Ay, Partna' I am going to need you to back off ha'" August said.

"Who the fuck are you?"

"Ha' man."

He looked at me and then back at August then laughed. "Nyla, don't stay long." Then he left right out the door.

"Mon-" I cut Nyla. "Don't even bother. Leave." I said to Nyla then went in my bedroom.

Today was supposed to be about me graduating from school and my dumbass parents decides to show up. I had a few tears come down my face. I couldn't believe my own father would say some shit like that. It hurt my mother more than it hurt me. I wanted to show them I wasn't weak about my weight and that I loved it more than anything. I wonder if August would love me for me.

August

Monae' must be heart broken right now and I couldn't shake the feelings off. I understand that's ha' parents and all but ha' pops should have not said the things he said to ha'. He could have kept it to himself. He was being a whole jack ass.

I went upstairs to see if Monae' was okay. I knocked on the door and waited. I didn't hear anything, I got real nervous because the last the time I went in her room, she tried to commit a suicide. "Take a deep breathe" I said to myself. I walked right into Monae's room and notice she wasn't there, I went to into ha' bathroom and noticed she was standing there in ha' bra and panties looking at ha'self in the mirror. She looked so beautiful without ha' clothes.

"Nobody wanna be with you, Monae'." she said to ha'self and that hurt me so much more. I stepped in ha' bathroom and wrapped my arms around ha' curves. "Monae'" I said turning ha' around to face me. "I want you to know, you are beautiful inside and out. I don't care what no one says, you are beautiful. I want to be with you. I wanna be your man. I wanna be the man to protect you from all this madness." I said to ha' and then gently kiss ha' lips. We mad out for a good 5 minutes. "Let me make love to you. Only if you want me too." I said to ha' as she had a few tears come down ha' face. "Okay." I grabbed ha' hand and led ha' to ha' bed. I laid ha' down and love to ha' the best way I can. I wanna show ha' anyone can love ha' if she let them.
