MINES

Chapter 10

JORDEN POV

After dropping Resha off at the house we head to the Den to see Kehlani. I know she's furious and confused about it all; and that's why we're here to talk it all through. Resha is pregnant and we thought it was best to be a family together even though we don't want to. Our contract isn't over but Megan and I agreed that if she wants out we'll give it to her.

Stepping out onto the floor behind Megan she calls out for Lani. But we're hit with silence. Now Frank said he brought her here so where is she?

Pulling out my phone I look at the tapes rewinding back about 3 hours and there she is with tears in her eyes as she walks through the rooms frantically. She grabs her sweaters, sketch book, her mug and somethings she left at the Den. I loved looking at her sketches she's so talented.

"So it's really over?...." Megan mumbles
"It is baby. It really is...."

ONE WEEK LATER

Resha walks around the house happy. Like she's floating on air. I guess that's the baby making her feel like that. Who would've thought one day of a mishap would result in a baby. I feel so bad for hurting Lani but we have to do what's right and that's standing up to the responsibility of this child. Being selfless...

But also hurting someone we do care for.
I just hope she forgives us.

MEGAN POV

I look out as I watch everyone work. I always find myself wandering to where Kehlani is. And there she is sketching. Since the party we haven't dealt with each other. Everything has been professional. She was done with us and I don't blame her. We hurt her....and also hurt ourselves. But we have a child coming in this world and if we have to be selfless and put our families needs before wants then we have to.

I've been noticing how she's been smiling today, for a whole week she's been sad staying at her desk and leaving early for the day. But today; she's happy. Now who is making her smile? Cause it makes me mad that we're not the ones doing that anymore. I bet it's Daze, she been pushing up on her since she met her.

With lunch time rolling in and everyone takes their break with each other I see them all leaving except for Kehlani. I wait till it's empty on the floor and go to her desk.

"Kehlani....can we talk?" I whisper to her trying not to disturb or even scare her

She looks up at me with no emotion in her eyes, and looks back down at her work....okay don't wanna talk. Noted.

"I'm sorry Kehlani. I know what was said went left but know that-"
"Are you done? I'm tired of hearing excuses and apologies, actions speak louder. And your opinions and thoughts of me are very clear. I got it! So please just leave me alone. It's bad enough I still have to deal with you" she says cutting me off

I nod my head loss of words. I look up seeing Daze walking off the elevator with flowers in her hands. Knowing what's going on I move and swiftly go back into my office as Daze waves to me. She stands in front of Kehlani and I watch as her face lights up and she accepts the flowers.

I chuckle cause I know she don't like roses she rather hydrangeas. But who am I to say anything. I'm just Megan her boss....

As my day comes to an end I pick up Nomi who still makes a horrible day a beautiful one. Walking into the house to find Resha laying on the couch watching tv.

"Oh about time you got home! What's for dinner?" She ask

"What you mean? You've been home, you could've put something together"
"Yeahhh.... But I'm pregnant. I shouldn't be doing too much"
