3 Months Later

Draya's Pov
"Y'all I'm scared! What if I don't find the right dress. I can't be out here looking stupid. This is going to be all over the news and Facebook and Instagram and twitter and an-" I mumbled.

"Girl shutup. You'll find the dress, that's why we all are here." Bri stated.

"Yea, you deserve this. Don't start making it what it shouldn't be!" Kiona added.

"Word," Aniya joined.

I sighed.

They're all right. A lady assistant came out and introduced herself. I explained my budget and how I wanted my dress.  Of course it was going to be white but the style? I had no clue.

The girls sat down on couches. But not without them picking out a few dress options first.

The assistant grabbed the first dress and handed it to me. I headed to the dressing room and started to get undressed. I looked at my body. My stomach scarred, my thigh scarred. This is my life.

On my thigh it read a fading " Hoe". Yet on my stomach was a huge fading gash. I've been applying scar cream and cocoa butter to remove the scars. It reminds me of that recent dark time and I don't want to reach such a dark state again.

I traced the scars. They were fading at least.

"What's taking so long? Do you need help?" The assistant asked.

"No, I'm on my way out now. Sorry!" I replied rushingly putting on the dress.

I looked beautiful. Extremely beautiful. I still couldn't believe I am getting married in 6 months! I am also graduating in 2 months! All at the age of 22.

I walked out of the dressing room and stepped on the little stage in front of the couches.

"Wow, Draya, wow!" Aniya exclaimed.

"Oh my gosh! My best friend. You look gorgeous! Oh my goshhh!" Bri exclaimed in addition.

Kiona watched me spin in awe.

"Is this the one?" I asked.

"It's beautiful and your beautiful but nah," Kiona answered.

The other girls agreed.

Just when I decided to head in to change my sister, mother and mother-in-law walked in.

How could I forget they were coming ?

After greetings and 10 dress changes , I put on my favorite and last dress.

It seemed perfect.
I looked perfect.
This is the dress!

I walked out confident. I hope they all like this one because every dress since the second one has been a no.

"Draya!" Kiona said in shock.
"Oh my gosh!" Bri added.
"My babygirl" My mother awed.
"This is the one!" My sister exclaimed.
"Woww!" Aniya whispered.
"Oh myyyy!" My mother-in-law awed.

"Are you saying yes to the dress?" The assistant questioned.

I looked at everyone and they all nodded in amazement.

"Yes!" I squealed.

Sierra's Pov

This little negro better answer his phone.

I'm two weeks away from giving birth and he's not answering. I can't do this alone. I won't do this alone. I'm heading over to his apartment. We do still live in the same building.

I waddled out the room and to his.

Knock. Knock. Knock

"I'm coming! I'm coming!" He yelled.

So he's home and had the nerve not reply.
I heard his footsteps reach closer and closer to the door and locks. Then the door opened.

He just stared. No words. He looked me up and down.

"Yeah nigga, I'm pregnant! It's yours!" I stammered breaking the silence.

"No it's not! Don't dare come here and put children on me. I strapped up when I hit and that was a whole year ago!" He replied.

"Nah, it's yours. You better step up. I've been calling your phone and you've been ignoring me. Continue this and your going to put on child support and I'm telling your dumbass girl!" I exclaimed.

"Bitch, I dare you!" He whispered in anger before slamming the door.

On my way back to my dorm. I noticed Draya along with a few other folks. She looked happy and she was heading towards her and Devonte's apartment.

"Hey Draya, tell your manz, to step up and get ready for our baby!" I stated smirking and kept walking.

I strolled back to my room.

Damn what if he really isn't the father? In fact, I don't think he is. But Isaiah?! It's him, how'd I forget. He didn't strap up and we had sex around the exact time I found out I was pregnant. It was no where near the time Devonte and I did what we did.

I pulled out my phone. Wait I'm going to just visit his apartment. Hopefully he's there. I haven't seen him since!

I left my room and walked up the stairs and into his. He was just sitting there in his dark living room.

"Isaiah!" I shouted.

He flinched and looked towards me.

Ew! He was jerking off.
His kids flew everywhere. But no surprise they flew in me and look at me now.

I turned on his light and walked over to him.

"I'm pregnant, as you can see! The baby's yours." I started.

"Damn, you sure?" He asked.

"Yeah, we can get it tested today. I don't know what to do. I have no support. You too worried about Draya and Devonte! Don't think I haven't noticed. When we find out whose child this is. We got to make a plan! Because we can't live like this. You know I've always wanted you. Here you are yet your not mines, your still attached to her. I gave you and lost everything. Just come, let's go figure this out.
