The look on Miss Selina's face when she saw me was priceless. I've been playing house with Cardo ever since that night. We talk about what we will name him and we decided on giving him a name that starts with a 'N' like Nala. I think it will be cute but all the names he's thrown out are so over used.
"When are you due Lena?" Miss Selina asks me after we eat breakfast.
"March 30th." I smiled while standing up and grabbing Nala's hand. She reaches for me to pick her up but my back hurts. "Will you hold onto my hand?" She nods and holds my hand tighter as we walk out of the kitchen. We walk up the stairs and into Nala's room. She got a bath last night so I can just get her dressed then get in the shower. I choose a pair of jeans and a sweater for her along with her fur boots. After I get her dressed I take her in the room with me and turn on some cartoons.
"You 'bout to get in the shower?" Cardo asks me while laying down in the bed with Nala.
"Yeah." I answer him shortly before going into the bathroom. After I get out of the shower I walk in the room naked because I don't think anyone will just barge in. The room is empty and the tv is off. I was standing in my walk in closet picking out an outfit and I hear the door slowly creek open. Cardo would have busted in here because it is partly his room. I peak out and guess who I see? Cyrus. He looks over my dresser and goes through my jewelry box that Miss Yalonda left me. I throw a robe on and tie it closed before bursting in on his parade.
"Hey!" I yell at him. He turns around quickly and he looks guilty. "What are you doing, Cyrus?" I ask him.
"I need to tell you something." He whispers.
"Get out so I can get dressed." I say as his eyes divert towards my legs and breast.
I snapped my neck with attitude just as the door opened revealing Cardo. I'm so mad my skin feels like it's boiling. Cardo looks at me and then at his brother. He shakes his head and I stomp off back into the Closet.
He talks to Cyrus before following me into the closet and closing the door. "What the fuck was that?" He looks at me with a conflicted face.
"Your brother was going through my stuff. I wasn't fucking him if that's what you think." I say with as much venom as I can.
"Why ain't you got no cloths on?"
"I just got out the shower, damn!"
"Bruh Chill for real."
"Shut the fuck up." I yell and he responds by smacking his lips.
"Watch your mouth before I bend yo ass over in here."
"You not gone do shit. What do you want?" I rolled my eyes as I went to go get my clothes on.
"We'll see." He laughs.
"What did he want to tell me?"
"He won't tell me but you need to chill with all that damn cursing. You didn't have to get so angry?"
"Did he have to go through my personal items to tell me a secret?" I roll my eyes.
"Nah and I'll talk to him about that but you need to chill." he chuckles.
"What's so funny?"
"This whole situation. My pregnant girlfriend is mad at my brother that I hadn't see in 5 years. I never thought I'd see the day. Did you ever imagine?"
"Yeah but I thought I'd be married and happy with my husband with legal jobs and a chance at heaven still."
"Lena, I know this isn't the life you wanted but-"
