Based Off of Your Love
CHAPTER 1
"Thanks to you, I am who I am today." As I thank him for being himself.
"How did I make you who you are?"
When he said that, my heart dropped down, I couldn't breathe, I needed some water.
"You just showed me that no one can hurt me." I replied "During this time period, I've worked my ass off in order to keep you proud. And also myself."
He looks at me, kisses my head, starts to turn around and walk away from me. "Baby, I love you. I have to go." Just before I could get a word out, "Please, what you said isn't the reason that I'm walking away. I just," he takes a long dramatic pause, "every minute that I'm here talking to you, is a moment where you could be working."
I can't believe he just said that, is he for real, is it just that I pushed him to fast?
"Why would you think that? Your the reason why I work. I'm going to take time away from working to see you." I began to cry "You can't just think am not going to see you due to work? I love you. More than you even know of Baby."
His eyes begin to water, he takes my hand, puts it on his heart, and says to me, "Listen, this is my heart beat, our hearts beat as one. Even when I'm not there, I'm there. I'm sorry, I have to go now. I love you, bye."
He gives me a kiss, then walks away.
I can't help but to think that his got someone else on his mind, or has to go see them.
A few hours passed by, I look at the time, it's 3:45pm. I look to see if there was a text him, there was, "Where are you at Baby. I have to tell you something, it's important." I can't help but to think, his going to break up with me today. I replied back just saying, "Ok. Where would you like to meet up at Baby?" He didn't text me back for 20 minutes. "I'm sorry, I was doing something. But at the house would be nice. Come over here as soon as you can." You could tell that he had something big to tell me.
As I walked into our house, he just looked at me, with some girl sitting in the family room, looking at me as if I wasn't able to just come in without asking.
He asked me to sit down, but I couldn't help but to point out that she was a random girl, in our house. So, I asked him "What is this all about Baby? And who is she?" He just looked at me, with a weird look in his eyes, "Baby, this is who I've been leaving you to see." All I could do, was go off, "What the fuck do you mean, you been cheating on me, AND WITH HER?" She jumped up like she was about to put her hands on me. "No, his my brother. And I'm pregnant, but I can't raise this child. I came here, to ask him, if he could..." She jus stopped what she was saying, and started to cry.
"I'm sorry. Please finish what you have to say." as I walked over there, trying to make her feel a bit better. She started to walk, looked at me, then looked at him, "My baby will be here in a few months, I don't want someone that I DON'T know have my baby. Brother, can you please raise my baby as your own. I can't tell you what I'm having, but I'm hoping for a son, I know that you want a son Brother."
Jamal stopped, looked at me, then started to speak, "We have to talk over this. But for tonight, you can stay here. Sister, my house is your house. Now let's get some food in that tummy of yours." He just looked at her, then started to cook.
