A Woman's Choices

Karma

On the way home I was silent I couldn't even think straight. We got back home and I instantly went to my room. Devale went to pick up Kaz and Ro. Kota and Lani was doing whatever they do in their rooms and I was in my bed fuming. After a while Devale returned and came upstairs to check on me.

Devale- You ok?

"Devale, did you know he left this girl and her baby like that?" I asked him

Devale- No I did not Crys, he told me she had left and disappeared on him so he thought she was lying about it being his

"We have her mom and step dad number, did you at least confirm his story?" I said getting annoyed

Devale- No I-

"Exactly, you were okay with what he said because you used that same excuse to not contact Lani but you can sure find me when you think I'm fucking somebody else" I said with aggravation

Devale- You making this about me? Man I'm out! Call me when you calm down ( walking out of the room )

FaceTime

Jax- Ma I'll be there first thing in the morning

"And you better not be lying cus I'll come get you if I have to" I said hanging up the phone.

THE NEXT MORNING

"I'm not cooking shit y'all better eat cereal or wake your dad up" I said grabbing a bottle of water heading back upstairs. I showered, got dressed and headed to the airport to pick up Jaxson. Once I got him I texted Britney to meet us at the house. The ride back home was silent I really didn't have a damn thing to say this morning. We arrived back at the house and everyone was downstairs, Lani had everyone watching The Proud Family reruns.

Knock knock knock

"Britney's here, kids go find something to do upstairs, downstairs, I don't care just not here." I said as I went and opened the door.

Britney- Hey Mrs.Ellis

"Oh, just call me Crystal please come in and have a seat" I said pointing towards the living room "Hi Jasmine, how are you?"

Jasmine- hi ( shy ) I'm good

Britney- Sorry she's shy

"It's okay she's just a kid" I said walking over to the living room sitting on the couch while Devale and Jaxson stand

"So.. now that we're all here-" I was interrupted "Is that baby mine or what?" Jaxson blurted out.

Devale- Jax, look at that little girl

Jax- Looks can be deceiving

"Really? In front of this child? You know damn well that baby belongs to you that's why you flew your ass back here" I snapped at him

Jax- Well I'm not claiming anything until I see DNA proof

Britney- You know what I have to be at work in a bit we can do this another time ( standing up grabbing jasmine's hand )

Jax- See ya

"Jaxson shut your damn mouth, Britney wait" I said going after her "Do you need help with anything? I can babysit while you work. If she needs clothes, shoes anything, just let me know" I empathized with her

Britney- If you could watch her that'd be great, she doesn't really need much but a babysitter and if you could take me to work

"Okay I can do that" I said smiling "How bout this, I'll watch her and I'll have Jax drive you to work." I said looking at Jaxson

Britney- Okay that'll work for me I don't know if he's up to it

"Oh baby he has no choice he knows not to play with me" I said giving him a serious look

Jax and Britney head out the door after she says bye to Jassy.

In the car

Jax- You such a bitch you know that

Britney- You made me this way

Jax- I've been giving you money every fucking week and you still refuse to give me a DNA test

Britney- I don't need your money Jaxson and you know she's yours

Jax- So what do you want? You show up in ATL stalking my family for what?

Britney- I want you! I've always just wanted you and our family and nobody stalked shit, your mom the one threw her pussy on my dad

Jax- What the fuck did you just say?

Britney- ( laughing ) Yea, Josh, that's my biological dad and when I found out he was screwing your mom that was the perfect opportunity to move to ATL, but your dad came back and fucked up my plan to get to you, luckily I ran into them at my job

Jax- So wait that nigga set my mother up?

Britney- Let's just call it your karma

Jaxson began to speed up the car and Britney saw the anger on his face.

Britney- Jaxson what are you doing?

He was silent and continued to speed up

Britney- JAX SLOW DOWN

Britney- PLEASE JAXSON

Britney continued to scream until there was a crash and everything went black.
