The aftermath || A Ja Morant story

11🥀

The girls came back from their trip just as quick as they left for it.

It was still fresh in Maria's mind what Temetrius and Kk had done while she was away.

Though it did hurt, Temetrius cheating was the least of her concerns at the moment.

Maria had completely forgotten they had an upcoming appointment to reveal the gender of their baby.

Berlyn helped Maria carry her bags inside, just as she helped bring them out the week before.

She set them down next to the couch, making sure everything was grouped together.

"Metri!" Maria shouted.

He was nowhere in sight.

"Temetrius." Maria began stomping up the stairs.

Temetrius came out the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his lower waist.

He was fresh out of the shower.

He had gotten out only a few minutes before Maria walked through the door.

"Why you screaming?" he questioned.

Maria looked him up and down.

She checked the bathroom to make sure Kk wasn't lurking.

"Where's Kk?" Maria asked.

Temetrius shrugged "As if I know." he said.

Maria rolled her eyes "Mm." she stared, "Be ready by 12, that's when we're leaving."

Temetrius thought to himself for some seconds before nodding his head.

"We got an appointment?" he asked just to make sure.

Temetrius was unaware of what kind of appointment they were going to.

"Yes, we have one at 12:30." Maria chuckled.

"Therapy or Baby?" Temetrius asked.

"Baby. We get to find out the gender today." Maria jumped up and down while clapping.

"I want to have a party, like a gender reveal." she said.

It sounded fun to Maria but didn't seem like too much of a good idea to Temetrius.

"You know that subject still sensitive for Kk."

"It's not her choice Ja. You need to start putting me first." Maria complained.

She went into their bedroom to get away from Temetrius, only to be followed by him a few moments later.

Maria sat on the bed with her head down and arms crossed.

"Consider how it would make her feel." Temetrius spoke to Maria from his closet.

He wanted Maria to understand Kk's side of things.

"All I'm saying is the least you can do is ask her."

Maria rolled her eyes.

She could care less about how she made Kk feel.

Infact, she hoped it would hurt her worse than Maria's hurt did to her.

Even after cheating on Maria, Temetrius felt no guilt.

He still took Kk's side no matter how Maria felt about it.

Maria took in a deep breath "I will talk to Kk." her last couple of words slowed as she tried to remain calm.

"But regardless of what she says, I'm still having some sort of party."

Maria wasn't letting up, but she was willing to befriend Kk.
