Niecey

I hold my baby as she sleeps. After we cried I didn't want to be around anyone but her. Checking my phone I see a message from a close friend. I feel guilty because she's been checking on me but I'm just not feeling to good.

"Hey dudie! You gon do my hair?" I smile seeing a message from Milly. We talk when we can.

"Yeah, just book an appointment. Never mind I have a few openings next week. Is that good ? And how you doing ?"

"I'm good. Yeah that's fine and Dee makes me feel better. I don't wanna say this but I'm glad you did what you did and I'll always love you and have your back. They hurt me too much." I smile seeing her message. I wonder who did it? Hm. Not me!

"Well I'm glad because they caused you pain but Phori pregnant ass is calling me so I gotta go. Tell Dee I said hi. And I'll call you tomorrow."

"Aight! Muah! Bye love you!"

"I love you too!"

I rub her booty feeling her turn around to hug me. I look into her eyes seeing worry and pain. I feel guilty because I didn't tell her. It's all my fault! After finding Euphoria's basketball coach. I found the men that jumped me. Let's just say I don't stop once I start. I'm in a certain zone.

"Hi, how you feeling baby ?" I nod causing her grasp my chin looking into her eyes.

"I'm fine. I think. You know I don't know what to think anymore. And my mom feels guilty for letting me go but I begged her. You know ? I wanted to spend time with my family. They took advantage of that." She nods her head dropping a few tears.

"They are evil."

"Are you scared of me ? I'll understand if you are." She shakes her head rapidly.

"I seen much worse and did much worse in New York. You must've forgotten who my dad is ? And I completely understand. I was actually wanting you to pull out a you know. Pow pow. But you didn't." I shake my head chuckling she plays entirely too much.

"Can we cuddle?" She blushes pulling me in. Sleeping with her is like walking on clouds. I wrap my arms arm her waist making sure to not push pressure on her belly. She's growing fast might I add.

"Hey Niecey, how you doing?" I look up seeing Javi. I turn the other way making him sigh. I don't want him to be scared of me.

"I don't want you to be scared of me."

"I'm not. I completely understand. I've been through something's too. And I won't ever judge you." I nod turning around seeing he had his arms out for a hug. I smile getting up to hug him.

"You still a light bright monkey." He rolls his eyes pushing me off of him. I laugh seeing him flop on my bed.

"Boy! She's sleeping, get out!" He shake his head getting under my covers.

"Fine." I roll my eyes walking to my bed. Getting in between I wrap my arms around Phori.

"And I feel a pet snake. Best believe a knife is getting thrown." He looks at me in shock scooting over. I laugh seeing him put up the cross sign. I ended up falling asleep life was good. For now. That's how life always been for me.
