MATURING!!

TAKE ACCOUNTABLITY⁉️⁉️

I was fuming hot, tears wouldn't stop rolling down my face. I had every right to feel the way I'm feeling. This man put me through hell and all I have to do is accept it? No fuck this shit

" you okay" this was like Pai third time asking me. I knew it was because she felt my anger. I just nodded my head yeah, I didn't really wanna talk

" you have to calm down Kai" I was breathing so hard I thought I was about to have an asthma

" I Can't " I just let all the tears and hurt take over I couldn't anymore. How could he just rip the strings out of my heart. As much as I don't wanna love him, I do. He force me to love him and of course I fall for it

I took the seat belt off and rolled the window down I couldn't breathe.We was down the street from the house and I was getting so nervous. I knew they had been there because Melo texted me but I never texted back

" you have to try Kai" she rubbed my back while she pulled into the driveway. I sat there collecting my breath before I was able to get out

I wiped my eyes , feeling my heart race as the reality of the situation sank in. The ultrasound picture crumpled in my hand. I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. This wasn't just about Melo cheating; it was about the potential reality of another child in the picture. A child that wasn't mine

My mind raced with every possible scenario. How was I going to confront Melo? What was I going to say? My stomach twisted with fear and anger.

I saw Melo's car already parked outside. My heart pounded harder. This was it. I had to confront him, even though every fiber of my being was terrified. Melo wasn't just any guy; he had a temper, and I knew how dangerous he could be when provoked. But this wasn't something I could ignore or run away from.

"Are you sure you wanna do this here?" Pai asked, her eyes full of concern.

"I have to," I replied, my voice steady despite the fear bubbling inside me. "I can't let this go it's gonna kill me if I wait until we're home."

I took a deep breath and walked into the house. Melo was in the living room, playing the game with Chase. The sight of him had my stomach in knots, but then I remembered the ultrasound picture crumpled in my hand.

"Melo, we need to talk," I said, trying to keep my voice calm. I didn't wanna make a scene in front of everyone

He looked up, his expression turning serious. "What's up, Kay?"

I handed him the ultrasound picture without a word. His face went from confusion to realization in an instant. He stood up, towering over me, and I had to fight the urge to step back. When he stood over me I always felt intimidated

"What is this?" he asked, his voice dangerously low.

"You tell me," I said, my voice shaking despite my efforts to stay strong.

He clenched his jaw, his eyes darkening. "I haven't fucked that bitch in months, this don't mean shit for me ."

"It doesn't mean anything?" I repeated, my anger rising. "She's pregnant, Melo! YOUR NOT JUST FUCKING HER, there's a child involved."

He stepped closer, his presence WELL KNOWN. "What do you want me to say, Kay? Yeah, I fucked her . But it's not my kid."

I scoffed, tears of frustration and fear welling up in my eyes. "How can you be so sure? You slept with her, didn't you?"

He didn't answer, and that silence was all the confirmation I needed. My heart shattered, the betrayal cutting deep. But I couldn't let him see how much it hurt. I had to stay strong, for Rae and for myself.

"You need to get her tested," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "You need to know for sure."

He nodded, but his eyes were still cold. "I'll handle it."

I swallowed hard, feeling trapped. I knew leaving him wasn't an option, not with his temper and the way he controlled every aspect of my life. But I couldn't stay silent either. I had to find a way to protect Rae and myself, to find a way out of this nightmare.

"Just get it done" I said, turning away to hide the tears that were streaming down my face. He didn't deserve my tears

"I wanna go home" he nodded grabbing The baby and we started leaving out. My head was hurting and I felt sick to my stomach. I texted Pai because I got straight in the car, grateful for the support she could give me. But deep down, I knew this was just the beginning. I had to find a way to protect myself and Rae from Melo's wrath. And that meant being smart, being brave, and finding a way to escape.

We got home and his mood switched IMMEDIATELY.

" THIS EXACTLY WHY I DONT LET YOU GO NO FUCKING WHERE" he was screaming so loud Rae'Lynn was crying

" it's not my fault you got caught AGAIN" he closed his eyes breathing hard. I hopped out the car before he could think about putting his hands on me

" Don't touch my daughter, you out here be fucking messy while you got my child" I was trying to keep my composure, SHE came up to ME.

He walked us in the house, we didn't say a word to each other. I went straight to the shower I knew he was gonna leave us in there. I didn't take long because today has been so exhausting. I'm assuming Rae was already sleep

" I'm leaving" It took everything in me not to knock him upside his head with this baby monitor but I didn't because I know he like to fight

" BYE" I said loud enough for him to hear I made sure he knew I wanted him to leave

" Kay stop starting before I get started" I rolled my eyes he's a bitch.

" GET STARTED MELO? FUCK YOU!!" I didn't have time to finish what I was going to say because he started coming toward me and ran in the room. IT WAS NO LOCK ON THE DOOR, I ran to the bathroom and soon as I locked the door he hit it.

" OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR" I wasn't opening the door, I was sitting on the counter watching the baby monitor. The rooms was sound proof so she didn't hear anything that was going.

" Melo just leave" he didn't respond but I heard a loud kick. I didn't know how sturdy the doors was now I was scared

" MELO STOP" of course he didn't, he kicked it about 5 more times. It was cracking

" IF I HAVE TO OPEN THIS DOOR FOR MYSELF IMMA BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU" he kicked it again, it was opening

" IM SORRY OKAY JUST LEAVE" a piece of the door flew off almost hitting me. I looked out the window we was at the third floor. He kicked it again

" OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR" I walked toward the door because it was about to open

" MELO IM SORRY" my heart was racing I put my hand on the door and he kicked it again. It pushed me back a little

" MELO PLEASE STOP IM SORRY" I opened the door and he looked like a crazy man. He was sweating and he hand his shirt off

" you like playing with me" he caught me by my neck.

" YOU LIKE FUCKING PLAYING WITH ME" he was squeezing and talking

" i SaID I wAS SoRRy" none of my words was coming out clear because he was squeezing so hard. He let go and put his fist up like he was about to punch me. Next thing I know I was being thrown across the room by my hair

"WHAT THE FUCK MAN" He screamed before slamming the door leaving out the house
