Hood Dancer

Chapter 31

Kaila

I got in the car and put on my seat belt. "Kai, how she even found you?" AJ looked over at me. "My mother has her ways. She always has her ear in the streets. She may not have shown us love the right way. But she always knew what we were up to." I said sitting back in the seat. "oh okay. What store we going to?" he said as he drove around the fountain and out of the driveway. "Babies R Us. I gotta get their baby swings, the spreads for their cribs, and ohhh, we gotta stop to the grocery store." I said rubbing my stomach. "Bae, you said one store not two." he sighed and I gave him the side eye. "Fine. We don't gotta eat then." I mumbled as he pulled into a parking space. I unbuckled my seat belt and opened the door. I waited for him by the trunk of the car. He finally got out and we started to walk.

I grabbed a cart and put my purse in the little seat where the kids sit. I walked straight to the cribs and picked out their blankets. My girl would have peach, cream, and brown. My boy would have red, cream, and brown. "You like the swings?" AJ said walking up to me. "Mhm." I sounded and pushed the cart as he put it in. "Kaila. Bring yo ass." AJ growled and pulled me into him. "I know it's your hormones, but stop. Just cause your spoiled ass don't always get your way you wanna be petty." he said in my ear and I turned around. "If you just did what I asked it wouldn't be a damn problem." I gritted back and turned around to push the cart. He just sighed and followed. He knew I was gonna be like this in the first place.

AJ

That'll be two hundred seventy six dollars and forty two cent Amari. The girl said eyeing me down. Kaila looked from her to me, not once but three times. "You know her?" she said pointing at her. I looked at the girl and I noticed who she was. "Diamond?" I said shocked. "How you been?" she said smiling. "Great.. I know you've been great with what's that nigga name? Chad?" I asked and she frowned. "Look, I'm sorry AJ. Please let me have you back. I just want what we used to have." she said as she put my stuff in the bag. I swiped my card and put in the pin number. "Nah. I'm happily engaged with two babies on the way." I told her as she handed me my receipt and I left out. Kaila was leaning on the car with her head down. I opened the trunk with the key and pushed the cart over there. I put the things in the trunk and closed it. Then, I put the cart in its designated space and went back to her. "Don't touch me." she said backing away from me. "Kai. We'll discuss this at home. Just get in the car." I said as I opened the door for her. She got in and put on her seat belt. I walked around and rubbed my hand over my face as I got in the car.

*25 minutes later *

"Kail-" I started. "Get away from me. You damn disrespected me in front of a girl that wants you. In her mind, you don't give a fuck about me so she feel like she can have you." she said pointing her finger in my face.

Kaila

"Listen. I told her I ain't want her, that I was happy with you. I ain't never gone leave you, we've been in this damn relationship for four years. Why the fuck would I ruin it Kaila!?" AJ yelled getting in my face. "You loved that girl, you probably still do. I seen it in your eyes... The way you looked at her." I spoke as my voice cracked, and I looked up at him. "Did you love her? Do you still love her?" my eyes glossed as I looked up at him. He just looked at me and didn't say anything. There was my answer. I just nodded and backed up. He still loves her so why am I even here?

King

"Kingston!" Quisha yelled as she popped him and picked him up. She handed him to me and he cried into my neck. "I told you about biting people Lil man." I said as I rubbed his back. Quisha was at the stove making lunch. "I don't know what the hell we gone do with two kids and his ass is already bad." she said not knowing I was behind her. "You pregnant?" I said and she jumped. "I um, I. Yeah." she said turning to face me. "How long you knew?" I asked. "Mmmm... About.. two months?" she said looking away from me. "When you was gone let a nigga know?" I said as she turned around and turned the stove off. "I was scared. You told me yourself, you ain't want no more kids. I was gonna tell you, but I was scared you wouldn't accept it." she said as she looked away from me. "We in this marriage for life, just because I didn't want any right then, that doesn't mean I wouldn't accept it. I would still treat that baby the same. I ain't evil ma." I said as I wiped her tears with my free hand. She nodded.

Dre

"Andre. Stop making your sister cry." I pushed him over to the couch; he's six and she's four. "She keep bothering me Dad." he said with his face all twisted up. "So she's your sister man. You supposed to make her happy, not sad." I said getting eye level with him as I held her in my arms. "Okay. I'm sorry Drea." he said getting up and hugging her. My kids were something else. I loved them though.

AJ

It was now nine o'clock, Kai stripped out of her clothes and walked into the bathroom. I watched her as she looked in the mirror and turned to the side. "My stomach had gotten so big" she mumbled and smiled as she looked at it. I came up behind her and her smile went away quickly. She moved away from me. "Kai. Let me explain." I said grabbing her hips. "Explain what! You love her that's all it is to it." She said attempting to push me off. "Kai. Look you don't under-."

"What is there to understand? I'm here, carrying your babies. I'm here, with this ring on my finger. I'm here. Me. You supposed to love me, not her. I loved you since I first met you and it hurts that you in my face loving somebody else. These four years, I took care of you. When you got shot I was there, when that girl came up saying that boy was your son I stuck by your side, and when you were sick I was there. But I don't know if I can be here this time. You love someone else." she spoke as she backed away from me. She was backed against the shower door with her eyes closed. She opened them and tears started falling down her face.

"Kaila baby look." I said getting on my knees. "I love you, I'm in love with you. Nobody can ever take your place. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." I said as I held her hips. She slid down the glass and pulled me in. I sat there and held her as she cried. "I'm sorry baby." I mumbled to her.

Diamond

I was gonna get Amari back, and if I had to get rid of that bitch I would. Pregnant or not.
