The maid 2

Danielle

"August I need help planning, I can't do all of this by myself"I whined while typing away on my laptop.

"Ok I'm coming"

Let me catch you guys up. Dakota moved out, and found her own place. August and I moved into a huge house together. I've sold my old home, but August kept his. We use to as a 'safe house'. D&D was doing pretty well.

"August no that's ugly"I sighed while looking at the picture he just sent me.

"I'm trying to help, but everything I do is a problem with you"He rolled his eyes. Excuse the fuck out of him.

"You should know what to do August"

"I'm not a woman! Y'all have some extra sense to do this shit, I don't. We should have hired someone to do this like I suggested!"

"August lower your voice, because I don't know who you think you're talking to"I warned. I was being more than calm.

"I'm trying to help you when you ask me, but you always complaining about stupid stuff"He rolled his eyes and began to walk away.

"August , I already told you the colors so why would you pick that ugly green mess"I questioned. "I don't have time to play with you"

He just ignored me and started to grab his keys.

"August listen to me"i said. "August!"I yelled but he slammed the door.

I heard his car start and him soon speeding away. I just shook my head. Running away from his problems. This has been so stressful. I went to the wine cabinet and grabbed a bottle.I poured some in the cup and put it back. Maybe I just need to sit back and let August hire someone. I went upstairs and laid in bed while putting my cup on the dresser.

I called Rachel and she answered.

"What's up bitch?"

"Hey, can I come over?"I asked.

"I'm not home"

"Alright"I sighed. "Hit me up later though" We both hung up the phone.

I immediately called Dakota, and of course she was at home. I hopped in my car and drove my way towards her house. I knocked on the door and she immediately opened it.

"Hey pookie poo"She smiled.

"Hey"I mumbled and walked in. She closed the door and locked it behind me.

"August?"She asked.

"Yes , I just don't know what to do. All we do is argue, and then he runs away like a stupid bitch"I explained and plopped down on the couch.

"He's a bitch "She said sitting down.

"I know Dakota, I just don't think this is gonna work out"I chuckled. "We're not even married, and we're arguing like a married couple"

"Now don't think that, you guys can work this out"

"I try to, he just doesn't want to "I stressed and laid my head in her lap.

"I don't know what to say"She let out a breath while playing in my hair.

Daniel came crawling in with drool running down his lips.

"Do you think he's home?"

"No, he usually stays a night over trey's house"I shrugged.

"Oh baby daddy"Dakota joked while busting out into a fit of giggles.

"Girl hush"i said while laughing. She found Trey very attractive and always stated how he's the 'real' father of Daniel.

I stood up and picked up Daniel. He smiled and I kissed his nose. I sat back down on the couch.

"Look at my little baby"I cooed while holding him high in the air. Daniel busted out in a fit of giggles.

Dakota chuckled.

"Look just sit August down and tell him to let's work out y'all problems"she said.

"Thanks Dakota"

"Welcome"she said.

We hugged and I gave her Daniel. I got my keys and went to my car and unlocked it. I got in and drove home.Just as I thought, August was not here. I unlocked the door and went in.I closed the door and locked it behind me. I went upstairs and grabbed my spongebob pillow. I went back downstairs and turned on the tv. I randomly started to cry. I don't know why, I always do this when I'm stressed. I wiped my tears away and continued to watch the current channel.

One again, I cried myself to sleep.

August

Shit! Man to think I almost cheated, damn.  Luckily Trey stopped me and gave me a long lecture. When I pulled up at home I saw that all the lights are off. I unlocked the door and went in. I locked the door back and put the keys on the hook. I saw Danielle asleep on the couch.

I felt bad knowing all the hell I had been raising for the past weeks. I placed a kiss on her forehead and picked her up. I walked her upstairs and carefully laid her on the bed. I turned the lights of and quickly changed into my sleep clothes. I laid next to her and fell asleep.
