Dawn

I shot up and ran to the bathroom throwing up. After flushing the toilet and gathering myself together I started my morning routine. Honestly I felt as if I had just went to sleep.

Anthony walked into the bathroom with blood shot red eyes. It killed me that he was allowing his stress to overtake his body the way he was.

"You want me to reschedule the appointment?" I asked. He shook his head and moved passed me to brush his teeth.

I simply nodded and finished up so I could give him his privacy. I went to leave out of the bathroom when Anthony grabbed my wrist making my towel drop.

"Stay out of my shit." He gritted. He roughly released my wrist and returned to his position in front of the sink.

"What are you talking about now Anthony?" I picked up my towel and mugged him.

"Just stay out of my shit before I fuck you up." He threatened now pissing me off.

"You not gone keep coming off like I won't-" He stepped closer staring me down.

"The fuck you gone do? Keep making empty threats like your ass stupid. Make me do something I will regret."

"You know what. Fuck you and this bullshit. I'm really getting sick of you Anthony. You fucking crazy." I pushed him back and walked out of the bathroom. Anthony shocked me when he grabbed me, which made me stumble into the wall.

"See that's what your simple ass gets." He shook his head and went back into the bathroom. He slammed the door making me jump.

I got up and gathered myself together. Today was the last day that I was going to put up with his bull.

Once Anthony left I started to pack all of his belongings. I got too much to give to keep being treated like shit.

I fully understand what he's going through but that doesn't give him any reason to take it out on me when I've done nothing but try and help him get through it all.

Anthony

"I thought you had an appointment and would stop by later." Autumn smiled.

"I went to see mama." Her smile faded. It was indeed a touchy subject for us both.

"Plus I didn't feel like going. Why waste time when I can be spending it with my favorite persons." Omari ran up to me and I picked her up.

"You look exhausted Anthony."

"I am." I shrugged.

"Uncle Aug!" She squealed as I tickled her.

"Guess what I got for you?" I placed her down and went to the trunk of my car.

"A Barbie!"

"I don't know. You will have to look and see." I grabbed her gifts and took them into the crib.

"You didn't have to Anthony." Autumn sighed.

"You know well enough had I known you were pregnant she would have the world by now." I placed everything in the middle of the living room before sitting down.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Omari jumped up and down and sat beside her gifts. She looked to Autumn. "Mommy can I open them please." Autumn nodded. I could tell that my niece was being raised right just by her asking to open her gifts first.
