All I wanted

Rom

I know ya want to know what happened between Hannah and I.

So I was with Arie and Hope buying Belz ring. We was on our way out and I caught a glimpse of a lady. Nah that can't be her I thought to myself. Then I remembered that I kept seeing this lady.

Fast forward so Hope made me take some time out of my busy day and talk to this lady. We sitting at the food court and I'm just looking at her.

"Um you said you wanted to talk so get to talk"

"You are rude but I deserve it and I am sorry" Hannah said

"For being a deadbeat and having someone else raise your kids?" I smirked

"Just let it out what else do you want to know Romero?" Hannah asked

"Don't call me that and that's not my name"

"You sure about that because I was there when you were born" Hannah said

"Did you say everything that you need to say because I got things to do"

Melo walked up and grabbed both of us. He walked me to my car

"Follow me home now and I'm not playing" He said

I got in my car and and headed home. Bella called me and since I was heated I went out.

"Leave me alone you upsetting me because you always want shit to be about you"

"What are you talking about Rom?" Belz asked

"You nagging. Why can't I just be left alone and have some peace"

"I don't know what your problem is Romero" Bella said

"Because you think you important and that the world is all about you. When it ain't. So when I want to deal with you I will. Until then fall back and don't call me that" I hung up and threw my phone down.

I hit the steering wheel because I knew I fucked up. I shouldn't of said those things to her but she was pissing me off and didn't know to fall back. I mean she called me 5 times within the hour. She ain't my mom, my wife or my child mother so what was her problem?

I pulled up and parked right behind Melo car and wlaked into the house.

They were in the kitchen and I sat on the other side of the table but at the end. I just looked at them

"She know she fucked up but she wants to be in our life now. Hear her out" Melo said

"Why would I. So she can get my hopes up again and leave. What mother leaves their child?"

"A mother that was a child herself. Look I had Melo at 14 and you at 16. I left when I was 17. I'm sorry. Your dad was 18 when I first met him. I wasn't ready but I knew that you two would be taken care of. So I left to find myself and better myself. Now I'm back because I would like to have a relationship with my kids and to be apart of ya lives. You can't say that I never came back and didn't see you from time to time. I just wanted to live my life" Hannah said

"But why not ever tell us who you were instead of saying a friend of the family?" I asked

"Trina was a good mother and I didn't want to take that away from you. I didn't want to corrupt your life even more and you always wanted to be with me" Hannah said

"Duh cause you were my mother and I never believed ya but it's cool you can be in my life but from a distance. I see that you and Melo are cool. Just remembered that when I wanted you, you didn't want me. Now that you want me I really don't want you because I have a mom named Trina. So have fun with your son Romelo." I got up and left and went to Trina house.

I walked in screaming "Ma"

I felt something hit me in the back of my head and I just held my head.

"Disrespect ya mother again and I'm really going to make you feel pain. I raised ya ass better than that" Trina yelled

"Ma, I'm heated now don't hit me again. I sat down on the couch and looked at her. You know you can kill someone from hitting them in their head"

"You will be fine. I need for you to apologize to both Hannah and Bella. I heard what your rude ass did. Don't think you not old enough to get your ass beat. You know your dad wouldn't want you to be so damn disrespectful." Trina said as she brought me a plate of food.

"Good looking mom and you are right. I am sorry for making you look bad." I got up grabbed the plate kissed her on the cheek and went upstairs to my room that I had in her house.

See Trina came into the picture right after Hannah went MIA. She couldn't have kids so she was happy to raise us. She married my dad and she was the only mother that I really knew. I mean I remember when Hannah used to come by and visit but then that stopped.

I'm just trying to protect myself before she hurts me again.

My phone started ringing and I looked and saw that it was my boy Erin. I been avoiding him so I asked

"Why would ya do that"

"It was harmless and his idea. She was cute but then I realized she cool. Then I found out that was her bestfriend." Erin said

"Ya can't be doing that to these girls. It ain't right"

"Bruh don't tell me you fell for her. It was just to see who can keep her for the longest. Nyson tried to pay me off and told me to just drop things with her." Erin said

"Nah ya had a bet and I wasn't apart of it and then I found out who the girl was. It crazy how we all got her number that night. She always been friendly"

"Yea yea. That's why I stopped on my own will" Erin said

"Yea like I'm still mad that you and Ny made a bet to see who could get her first and ya just told me but she mine. I don't know why he would do that to his so called Bestfriend"

"He fishy and you are right but I never took the money. She really cool and sweet and I can't wait until you marry her. So what the ring look like Bruh?" Erin asked

"It's purple and who told you?"

"Melo did. Don't worry my mouth is shut about everything" Erin said

"Ight" and I hung up.

I laid in my bed figuring out how I would make things better with Bella. I also thought about if I should tell her about Erin and Nyson bet. Or should one of them tell her.

Erin is Trina Godson and we grew up together. Nyson and Erin was friends since birth I believe and I met Nyson that night and again at Erin graduation party. Bella couldn't go with me that night and it was a good thing. That's when I found out about their bet.

Something don't seem right with Nyson. Like who does that to their bestfriend. Ya ain't bestfriends and I don't want her around him.

I grabbed my phone and called Belz phone 6 times. Straight to voicemail so I text her and still no response.

I rolled on my stomach and ate the oxtails, cabbage, white rice and beans that my mom cooked. I was blessed to have a mix family.

"Thank you Ma" I screamed.

"You welcome baby" Trina said as she came into my room and handed me a bottle of water.

She sat next to me and gave me a long speech about how she heard the phone conversation. She told me that I have to tell Bella and work things out with her because she was the one.

What Rom did not know was that he called someone. They heard the whole conversation
