Better Love

Chapter 2 :Wilson

1 Week Later .

I had brought Wilson to work with me today because Rose had a job interview .
I gave him food and his tablet to keep him busy while I worked .It isn't as hard being a single mother .Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do ,and I'd do ANYTHING for Wilson .My life revolves around him .

"Tom .Kayla .We need you guys to go serve that group over there ."
We both nod because the group is surprisingly huge .

"You ready Tom ?"
Its Tom's first day .He sallows and nods .We strut over to the table where the huge group sits .

"Hello my name is Makayla and I'll be your waiter today ."

"My name is Tom and I will also be serving you today ."

Just then he looks up from off the menu and I almost freeze .I swear my heart is beating outta my chest ,and I still get the same butterflies in my stomach as if it was our first kiss .I feel numb .My head is going to explode I am going to die .My head is pounding my heart is racing .Suddenly a wave of cool comes over me .

"K-Kayla ? Kayla is that you ?"
Everyone seems to stare at me .
I glance over at Wilson and bite down on my bottom lip .

"Sorry sir .My name is Makayla .Now what can I get you ?" I chuckle .

Everyone starts to give Tom and I their orders and drinks .

"Makayla how does he know you ?How do you know him ?That guy is freakin hozier .Makayla you've got some talking to do."
The questions gush out of Toms mouth instantly as we're filling the cups up with drinks .

"Nothing I don't know anything I swear ." I lie .
"Now come on boy we need to get that table some service since they are pretty much the only people her ." I slap his back picking up the tray of drinks .

I sat everyone's drink in front of them but when I get to Andrew I give his drink too the lady sitting next to him and tell her to hand it to him .

"Tom do you think you've got it from here ?" I ask him .

"I need fresh air that's all ...I'll be right back ."
He nods ,and I walk over to the booth to pick up Wilson .I take him outside and put him down .
"Go find mommy another one of those pretty rocks ."

He runs off leaving me standing there .I stand there and watch him as he searches for a rock .

"When did you have a baby ?" A voice ask .Well it wasn't just a voice I knew exactly who it was .
Instead of answering I fold my arms over my chest and continue to stare at Wilson .

"You know my friends in the diner were saying he looks like me ...Could he be mine ?" He ask .

So some reason he had set me off .

"YOU LEFT ME ! YOU TOLD ME YOU WERE COMING BACK FOR ME ! YOU LIED .YOU'RE A LIAR .I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME ?!? I THOUGHT WE LOVED EACH OTHER ." I sob .
He didn't bother to look me in the eyes like had been .

"Momma ! Momma I found it - Momma why are you crying ?"
He hugs my thigh .

"Nothing baby I think something's in my eye ." I go down to his level and wipe my eyes .He looks up at Andrew ."You hurt my momma ?"
He balls up his little fist and puts it up, but Andrew just laughs .

"No Wilson he didn't ." I giggle .

"You named him Wilson ?" he smile ."What your full name ?" he asked him .Of course my baby being as smart as he is says "Wilson Andrew Bryne."
Andrew looks in shock .He picks him up ,and looks at me .
"Why didn't you tell me I had a son ?"

"You left me I had no contact with you what was I suppose to do ?"

"Do you know who I am ?"
Wilson shakes his head .

"I'm your dad ."

"Dad ?" Wilson cocks his head to the side .

"You have my name .You see my name is Andrew Bryne .And I've always wanted a son and I've always told your mother I want to name him Wilson ."

"Kayla it's getting a little chili let's go inside ."
I follow as he opens the door for me .He walks to the big group and starts to introduce Wilson and I .

"Okay everybody .Listen up .This is my son Wilson ,and his mother Makayla ." he smiles .

"You had sex with a waitress ?" Someone laughs .Of course it was a blonde .

"Prissy be quite ."he defends .

"I gotta get back to work .I'll take him ."
I whisper .I feel uncomfortable .

"No .I'll keep him right now ...Wait can't you ..you take off .We need to talk ."

"Aright .I'll go talk to my boss ."
When I walk back into the kitchen to talk my boss into letting me off early .It's very rare that I ask for off days or early days .

"You know that man don't you ?" he asked .

"Of course I do .Well not really ...I knew him in the past of course but I surely don't know much about him now sir ."

"Well ..you don't really ask for much so I'm gonna let you going early ."

"Thank you."

Leaving out of the kitchen I go grab Wilson from Andrew's arms .

"Wait .Aren't we going to talk ?"

"About what ?"

"Our child .Our future .About Us ." he says .

"My Child .We have absolutely NO future .And there is NO us .End of conversion ." I wink .
Grabbing the rest of Wilson's stuff I take him to the car .Only to be followed by Andrew .
I strap Wilson in his booster seat and get in the car .Without saying a word Andrew hops in the passenger seat .

"You like it here ?" he ask .

I don't understand why he is trying to have a conversation with me .And why is he even in my car .How could he leave all his friends behind ?

"And we will name our children Jackie and Wilson ." he sings .

"If you think Wilson will bring us closer together he won't .I don't know if you're going to try to take him away from me but you're not I have full custody .No we can not be friends so don't even try with that .It doesn't matter anyway though .None of this matter you're too rich for us right .So after this you can go and forget about us .You can forget you have a son .You can forget we ever had something .You can just forget about my son and I .Leave us in the past like you did before ."

Finally I park my car in my driveway .

"How can you expect me to forget about you ? Forget about Wilson ?
How can you expect me to do such thing ? I know I left years ago and I made a mistake and I'm sorry ,but you know how my parents were .This all matters to me .The fact that I have a child .The fact that I want you back .I haven't even known my little guy for twenty four hours and I'd already do anything for him .I understand and respect your decision of you not wanting to talk again ,but this town here is my last tour stop and I want to get to know Wilson over time ."

"You're just as cocky as ever .I think Wilson did fine without you .We don't need you now. "

"You can't blame me ! I've tried to contact you again .Believe me and I'm not leaving without putting up a fight. "

"Do not ,and I repeat do NOT raise your voice around my son . "

"That is OUR son the most you can do is respect that I put in on him too ."
" As a father no you didn't put in on him ,but as a sperm donor you sure as hell did. "
He sits quite taking my words in.
Was I wrong ?
