The Help

Ch. 3

Taylor

Me and Tremaine were walking around the mall, shopping at different stores. I appreciate him doing this for me, but at the same time I felt bad. I only known him for 2 days and here he is spending money on me like crazy. We just walked out of Forever 21, with at least 3 shopping bags.

Tremaine carried the other bags, which was like 6 of them. We began to walk around some more as I looked at some stores I wanted to go in but debated on whether I should or not

"Uhmm, thank you Tremaine for all of this...I don't know how I can ever repair you"

"Don't worry about it. I'm doing all of this for you. I'm a good guy, I told you I wanted to help" he smiled. I returned the same smile to him "Look. There's a Michael Kors store. Come on"

"Oh no" I stopped "I don't want you buying me Michael Kors, it's to much"

"I don't mind. Come on" he said as he began to walk to Michael Kors. I rolled my eyes as I followed him into the store
******
I am exhausted now. After we left Michael Kors, we inside the Apple Store and he bought me an IPhone 6. I thanked him after that and told him I didn't want anything else. He knew I was lying but he listened anyways.

As we was heading towards the exit of the mall, someone called my name..

"Taylor?"

Me and Tremaine stopped in our tracks and turned around. It was Shawn. My brother. I haven't saw him in months

"Shawn?"

"Taylor" he walked over to me and hugged me. I cried in his arms as he held me "I missed you Tay"

"I missed you too" I stated as I pulled away from him. I wiped my tears away and smiled at him "How are you?"

"I'm fine. I came to buy momma a gift. You know it's her birthday?"

"Yeah. I didn't forget. Tell her I said Happy Birthday"

"Or you can come tell her" he suggested "Come home Tay"

"I'm not coming home. She doesn't want to see me and she doesn't love me. She put me out because I would get an abortion, what kind of mother is she?"

"Come on Tay. Your living on the streets and your pregnant. I know deep down inside she wants you home"

"Actually she isn't on the streets anymore" she blurted out as he stood next to me "I'm Tremaine" he said as he reached his hand forward. Shawn shook his hand

"Shawn" he introduced himself "What do you mean she not on the streets anymore?"

"She's living with me. I didn't like how she lived on the streets and-"

"Do you even know my sister? Or you just randomly picked her up from the streets?" Shawn asked rudely

"She ate at my restaurant and didn't pay and I got to know why, she had no money and she was poor, 18 and pregnant living on the streets. So you should thank me instead of coming down my throat"

"Whatever" Shawn said "Taylor, come home"

"No! I'm not coming home! As you can see Tremaine is taking care of me as a friend and helping me out" I said as I showed him the bags that I had in my hand "I finally have somewhere to stay, and it feels good"

"Are you serious Tay?! What the fuck? Do you even know this nigga?" He yelled

"Stop yelling at her!" Trey told him "As you can see she is pregnant and she doesn't need to be stress anymore, not from you and definitely from your mom. Let's go Taylor"

I looked at Shawn as I seen tears welled up in his eyes. I looked back at Tremaine as he waited for me by the exit

"Bye Shawn. It was good seeing you" I said softly as I walked towards the exit...

Tremaine

We got home and I helped Taylor put some things up in the closet in the guest room she was staying in

"Thanks again, for everything" she said "I got a lot of stuff"

"No problem. Sooo? Are you ready to have your son? I mean you got 3 months left right?"

"Yeah" she sighed "I'm not going to lie, I'm a little scared. This my first child and I'm only 18. I just thank you for helping me so much. Your really sweet" she smiled weakly "I thought I would be living on the streets for the rest of my life" she said sadly

"Nah babygirl. You can stay here as long as you like"

"Thank you" she said as her voice cracked "I don't know how many time I have to say it but I do really appreciate it. I have nobody. My dad died and my mom put me out" she said as tears fell from her eyes "I haven't seen my bestfriend in awhile. I'm lonely"

I walked over to her and hugged her. She cried out loud. It broke my heart to know how much pain she been through.

"Shhh. It's okay. It's okay...I got you. Your not alone babygirl, okay? I'll will step up and be the baby's father as well"

She pulled away from me and looked at me, shocked. Her eyes were red from crying

"Tremaine? No. You don't have to do that"

"I want too. A kid shouldn't have to be raised without a father. I want to step up and be a father to your son. Please?"

"Uhh..O-ok"

"Good"
