India In The Hustle

Chapter 17

INDIA

   "Brandi you are my life saver right now." I said watching her come into my office with a bag of mandarin express in her hands.

   "India you should be really be full. We just ate thirty minutes ago." She said sitting the bag on my desk. Opening the container seeing fried rice, bourbon chicken, sweet and sour chicken and egg rolls.

   "What I get hungry really quick." I said eating some food as she sat down giving me a look.

   I've been in Atlanta for three months and its heaven. I love it out here it gives me a different atmosphere. I love my new job way more to being in charge with more models. I also made some new friends here I meet this guy actually gay guy who does my hair whose name is Amiyah. He does wonders in my hair and sets the record straight. I also hang out with this girl named Mila. She also does hair and works in the same shop with Amiyah both of them together is trouble.

   Let's not forget the food. I see why everyone loves Atlanta. The food is amazing; I love it more since I'm three months pregnant.

   "So when are you going to tell him." Brandi asked me as I continued to eat my food. Brandi moved out here a month ago. Seems like her and my sister were having some problems so she left her. Why she was worried about me she should've been worried about her own relationship.

   "I've don't know Brandi." I said leaning back in my chair. Me and Odell relationship changed when I moved. He wasn't answering my calls. I called him at least twice and got no answered. So I gave up plus he moved on when a women answered his phone so he doesn't deserve to know in my eyes.

   "Come on India. You about to be four months when are you going to him when you're in labor." She questioned as I signed putting my hands on my belly rubbing it.

   "He broke his promise to me Brandi." I said feeling the tears come into my eyes. One thing I didn't like about being pregnant was your emotions was everywhere.

   "I understand that India but that's his baby too and I'm sure he doesn't want to miss out on anything." She said making me nod my head. She was right.

   "I know it's just hard. I feel like I'm going to get judge from my family. They already didn't want me to move. Once I tell them I'm pregnant and I hide it from them it's going to be hell." I said taking a sip from my water.

   "Let them India your twenty. You're not a baby that's what they see in their eyes. You got to get a backbone." She said giving me a smile.

   "So what you doing for thanksgiving weekend. Are you coming with me back home or you staying here?" I asked her as she shrug her shoulders.

   "Since half of my family is here. I was thinking of staying I don't know for sure yet." She said

   "Or you trying to ignore Morgan." I said watching her stand up as she laughed.

   "India your sister is truly an asshole who needs to get her priorities together." She said as I sighed. She does need to get it together.

   "Okay so here is your flight information. Dot forget while you're down in LA to stop by your old office." She said as I nodded my head.

   "Thank you Brandi. I appreciate you so much." I said getting out my chair hugging her as she hugged me back.

   "Gosh you're getting so big." She said pulling her hands back putting her hands on my stomach.

   "I know I barely can fit in my clothes." I signed as she smiled at me shaking her head.

   "The way you eating gone have my god baby fat." She said laughing I wanted Brandi to be the god baby. I've gotten so close to her.

   "I'm about to head out and go to the salon. You wanted to come with me." I asked as she shook her head no.

   "I actually have a date tonight so I will see you when you come back." She said hugging me back and leaving the office before I even asked her questions. Walking back over to my office shutting my computer down closing the blinds.

   "Hey." I answered picking up my purse walking out my office.

   "So what time does your plane land." Bree said through the phone as I walked into the parking a lot.

   "I should be there at nine at night. Is Pops coming to get me?" I asked her getting inside my car switching my phone to speaker button.

   "No I got to come get you." She said as I rolled my eyes.

Bree can't drive at all.

   "Make sure you bring Crystal or Brooke." I said at they knew how to drive. I didn't want to die.

   "I'm so excited to see you and my little niece or nephew." She gushed on the phone as I smiled. She was the only one who knew of my pregnancy.

   "Okay Bree I will call you tomorrow okay." I said as we talked more then hung up. I needed to get to the salon.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

   "Amiyah why do you have to be so rough." I said eating my sandwich. He was giving me a new style.

   "Because how your ass come up on my salon, and brings me no food." He said as I laugh.

   "I tried to call no one answered." I lied eating my chips. Salt and vinegar chips was my life right now.

   "Sure India whatever so you say you better be glad little baked bean is in there." He said as I smacked my lips.

   "I told you stop calling my baby that." I said burping sitting the paper in the trash.

   "I told you India. He doesn't listen to no one. He thinks he the shit." Mila said as I laughed here they go.

   "I am the shit that's what your man told me last night when I was doing a spilt on his dick." Amiyah said making me laugh.

   "I'll burn that synthetic wig off your head play with me Amiyah." She said rolling her eyes.

   "No child this is Malaysian right here unlike you got that beauty land hair from them African people." Amiyah said as Mila rolled her eyes.

   "Anyway India you been hiding out." Mila said looking at me.

   "I don't know what you're talking about." I said shifting in my seat.

   "Your baby daddy I know you got to picture of him somewhere. I got if my baked bean going to look like." Amiyah said as I grabbed my phone looking through my gallery finding a decent picture of Odell.

   "Damn do he have a brother." Mila asked as I asked my head no. Watching her hand the phone to Amiyah.

    "Damn was he breaking your cervix honey. That's why your pregnant." He said walking around showing the people in the shop the picture.

   "Amiyah stop." I said grabbing my phone away from him as I got looks from the women's that was here.

   "That nigga fine India." Mila said as I rolled my eyes. I already knew this I did miss Odell and his dick.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

   "You're wearing mommy out." I said getting out my car. I was beyond tired and hungry. I just wanted to curl in my bed and sleep. Walking towards my door as I saw someone standing there. Looking in my purse grabbing my maze.

   "Odell." I said looking at him as he turned around with a hard glare on his face. Switching his eyes away from me as they went to my belly watching him frowned hard.

   Why do I get this feeling this was a setup?
