My Happy Ending

Ch.28

|Camille's POV|

I'm pissed that Kendrick just up and left, without a heads up. Who knows how long I have to keep Matthew and his daughter. I'm going to get to know them though.

I'll try my best to love them while they're here. I have a weakness for kids.

Right now, the only ones up were me and Matthew. His daughter had fallen asleep on his chest. He seemed very uncomfortable when he had her.

"You should go lay her down." I smiled to him. He looked at me with sad eyes, and then nodded.

"Alright." He mumbled, standing up. He came back a few moments and sat back down beside me.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

He didn't say anything. Instead he started to cry, silently. He sniffled every now and then, but I was at lost for words.

"Hey, don't cry.." I softly said to him. He still ignored me and continued to cry. I rubbed his back in circles, trying to soothen him.

"You can talk to me Matt.." I said to him. "I'm not going to hurt you."

He wiped his eyes and finally turned to me.

"I'm sorry, I'm just overwhelmed.." He tells me. "I feel like I'm too young to have all this on my plate, and sometimes.. I think about killing myself. Then I look at my baby and change my mind. She's a beautiful baby, she just deserves better than me. And every time I hold her, I'm so scared I'm going to hurt her."

"Well, you are right. You are too young to be dealing with this, but this is the consequence of having sex and-"

"He didn't tell you?" Matthew asked.

I looked at him with a confused face.

"Who? Tell me what?" I asked.

"Killa, I um was forced to have Maliyah, because my mom and her boyfriend thought it would bring more money from the government in.."

"What the hell?!" I yelled. "Who is the mother?"

He shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know the woman, but she gave all rights over to us.

I shook my head, angry as hell. How could you do that to a kid? I'm going to find out who his mother is and once I do, that's her ass.

"Look, don't even worry about that. If you feel like nobody is with you, just know that I am. I'm here to help you and if you ever need anything just give me a call." I said sincerely.

He nodded his head and gave me a slight smile.

"Okay, that's wassup."

I laughed and shook my head.

|Kendrick's POV| Next Day.

"Do you think he knows, we're watching him?" Blue asked.

"Probably so, but who cares? We're untouchable."

Blue smirked and continued to watch Abraham and some of his workers pick up their shipment from the mexicans.

I hear their shit is good, but I don't won't business with Abraham's number one connect. They'll must likely be shady.

"Let's go back to your dad's place, this shit is boring. And plus, Kareem is waiting on us." Blue said to me.

I started up the car and drove off.

"Didn't he stay there last night?" I asked.

"Yeah, I was in the kitchen with your dad when he came in. I guess he and his girl had a argument." He explained.
