Micheal Amir Bassett, 3
Y/n Bassett
"Wake up."I heard as water was immediately splashed in my face.
"Ma c'mon!"I said wiping my face off pissed.
"Get ready and meet me in the front."she said walking out of the room.
"Good morning"she said as I sat down on the couch still mad not at the fact that i got water poured on me but just thinking about whats going on right now.
"Mornin'"I said leaning back on the couch rubbing my face putting my head in my hands.
"Talk y/n."She said
"I don't have nothing to talk about some stripper claim she met me at the club three years ago and had my baby.Mama you know me I would never cheat on megan let alone have a baby on her."I said
"Are you sure?"she said
"Now i know we did break up sometime around December that year and I was wildin'.But that's the only time i could think something like that could happen I swear."I said
"Thats not what I meant I meant are you sure that he's yours?"she said sitting up while crossing her legs ontop one another
"Ma what you mean? I told you we were getting a test done later.I don't know."I said confused on why she asked me this.One thing i knew about Angela herself is that she had great memory.So she couldn't have possibly forgotten our conversation yesterday.
"Y/n I was born at night but it definitely wasn't last night.I know you, You're scared.If you thought this baby couldn't have possibly been yours then you wouldn't be scared.The picture you sent me yesterday that baby looks like you especially lime you when you were a child.Now i don't believe that you would have cheated on Megan at all thats why i got people working on that right now.The good news is since his bday was in September his conception date was in December around where y'all broke up.Im getting footage from the club to have that determined right now.Now y/n baby if this child is yours I expect you to step up fully and provide for him as you would any other child."she said seriously as I finally started crying.I didn't like to show my emotions infront of anyone but i truly was scared.
"I don't wanna lose her ma."I said as she came over to me rubbing my back.
"I know."She said
"How am i going to be a good father when i never had one?"I asked her as a tear rolled down her cheek im guessing thinking about my pops that died before i was born.Only thing i knew was that he was a great man nobody had anything bad to say about him.I also knew they were madly in-love.
"I don't know i cant tell you whats going to happen but i do know that that boy is going to love you regardless y/n you cant be perfect."she said as I wiped my tears and nodded.
"He look just like me I'm not even gonna lie but I still wanna know for sure. Come on I want you to meet him."I said
___"Hey mama " Megan said as her and my mother embraced in a hug as I said hi and went straight to Baby Mikey while he ate his food that was separated from one anther im guessing he didn't like it touching and on the plate a certain way.
"Goodmorning buddy whatchu doing? Is it good.I know it is babygirl can throw down"I said as I smiled at him knowing he wouldn't respond back but im guessing he understood me because he smiled and offered me some.
"Nah im good lil man thats all you."I said as he ate it and my mother and megan finally came over.He looked at her confused im guessing trying to see who she was.
"This is my Mama, mama this is micheal."I said introducing them as he instantly held his arms out for her.
"Oh."She said picking him up. "Hey Michael, how are you today?"She said as he studied her face while smiling as she put him down after a few minutes.
"Can he talk?"She said
"He's non-verbal."Megan said
"Oh my. How old is he again?"She said
"Three."I said. "I think he might be on the spectrum but he could just simply be wayyyyyy behind because he didn't have the proper tools and training. We made him an appointment for later on this week."I said
"Yeah thats good, Did his mother write anything about that?"She said concerned
"No, right now were just playing the waiting game."megan said as Michael started crying.
"Hey, hey, hey whats wrong?"I said as me and megan both went over to him as she picked him up.
"You done eating?"I asked grabbing his hand as Megan kissed him on the cheek to calm him down in which he repeated the action while also rubbing her ear.
"Im going to head out ill be back soon with some things to help.Bye you all love you."My mom said leaving as we waved closing the door after watching her get in her car.
I turned around to see megan place michael on the ground walking back towards the kitchen grabbing his plate and putting it in the sink. As she grabbed him one of my koolaid jammers.
"Hea'"She said giving it to him as he instantly started drinking it.
"So you not even gon talk to me?"I asked
"Y/n I dont know what you want me to talk about with you. This sh- i mean ish aint weird to you?"She said rolling her eyes washing the dish.
"Man I- nevermind come lil man you wanna go play some basketball?"I said as he looked at me confused as i picked him up.
_____"Yeah there you go!"I said exited at the fact he threw the ball in the hoop he laughed
"Good job man. High five."I said showing him how to do it before he did it too.
"You so smart man."I said kissing his cheek before megan said the people were here.
"All done.Well have the rushed results in three days"she said as she had just got done swabbing us.
"Thank you lemme walk you out."I said walking her out before coming back to the living room to see Michael laying on megan while he played the alphabet game she just bought for him on her ipad.
"What letter is this? Can you say A?"she said
"Mmmm— A!"He said after trying a little before he got the sound we both got excited.
"Good job baby."She said as I smiled.

Three days later."You open it."I said nervously.
"The probably of paternity is 99.9998%."she said as I looked at her.
"Baby-"I said before she walked out.
