Chapter 39 : Let's Meet Pt 1
I barely said a word the rest of the day after the bullshit was revealed with Masika.
Deion forced me to eat something despite me not having an appetite so I was currently sitting on his couch munching on cold watermelon chunks.
Once something ruined my mood it was no telling how long my attitude would last.
The thing is a huge part of me knew not to trust her in the first place but I have this thing about me where I somehow always try to give those close to me the benefit of the doubt time and time again, despite it almost always going bad.
"I can tell you're upset, I understand baby. Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?," Deion asked, gently placing my feet over his lap.
I shook my head, "Not really baby. I'll be okay."
"I don't want you stressing about this. The babies feel what you feel."
He was right, it felt like he was always right.
"I'm not going to stress over it, I'm just irritated."
Looking down at my stomach I softly rubbed one of my hands against it.
Deion sat there looking at me, his eyes had a shimmer of sadness in them.
I think he felt guilt about Yvonne. Which was something I didn't want.
Yes he had been married to her and I don't think any of this happening this way was planned, but he wasn't to blame for her reckless behavior.
Rubbing the side of one of his temples he groaned, "I never wanted anything like this to happen with you. I thought things being finalized with her would've been the end of this mess."
"You're a phenomenal man, I'm not really surprised she can't let go."
It was true, this man was the type you'd fantasize and dream about.
His ability to be gentle but still healthily masculine, his ambition and desire to provide, his hardworking spirit, his expression of love, the way he parents, the way he caresses your body as if it's the only one in the world.
"She should've let go years ago, I should've as well."
I spoke in a soft tone, "You can't change your past. All we can do as partners at this point is make changes for our future."
He grasped my hands and peered into my eyes, "You're absolutely right."
"I think I should actually sit down with her," I blurted out.
The frown that went across his face was instant, his jaw tightened as he looked at me waiting for me to change my statement.
"Absolutely not, Naomi no."
"It's kind of my decision."
"This should be a joint decision. I mean have you even considered what could happen?," he questioned, standing onto his feet.
