I sit on the bed rubbing my little stomach.
"Aw Mia, I can't wait till it's due!" Nicole screeches
I continue to rub the slight bump on my stomach, "Yeah me too..." I say with a sigh
Nicole stands up and looks at me straight in the eye, "You know I still think you should tell Devon, he is the father after all."
Devon.. I think about him all the time no matter how much I try to push him away. Its been 3months since I've seen him, April. He is married to that bitch he told me about, Cindy. They are all over magazines holding hands eating out together but I can see right through all his smiles in those pictures, they are fake. He hates her, I know he does- but he chose her and the money over me.
"Hes better off now, hes going to school to be an architect and married... hes living the life." I say with a disappointed sigh
"Mia you kno-" Nicole says but I interrupt.
"It was his choice, he made up his mind. Besides I don't want him stopping his dreams for me. He has a whole life ahead of him. Me, I have nothing." I say with a pout.
"But Mia, don't you get it you are his life, he may have wealth and get the job of his dreams but it will be nothing if he isn't with you. He loves you." Nicole says. Her words are true if I must admit. He told me he loved me, he keeps calling me constantly and trying to stop by as much as possible to see me but I refuse to talk to him. I haven't spoken to him in 3 months.
Now I am trying to start a new life, trying to get my son or daughter the life I never had even if it isn't with their father.
"You know.." Nicole says looking down at my baby bump, "One day that child is going to ask for their dad and what are you going to tell them? Their dad isn't here because you keep pushing him away. I mean Mia you're gonna raise this kid in my mom's house with my mom only and you know how much my mom doesn't want to raise babies. You need to get your life together and give Devon another chance." Nicole says with the voice of reason. Shes right, Nicole is still going to college, her mom barely makes enough money for the two of them and now I'll be here with my baby. I can't raise it in this type of environment.
"Whatever Nicole, I'm late for my appointment." I say grabbing my jacket and leaving the apartment.
Devon's P.O.V
"Devon baby! What do you want to eat?" Cindy screeches from the kitchen. Her voice is so damn annoying.
"Nothing" I say with a sigh. I can't stop thinking about Mia, I try everything in my power to talk to her but she refuses.
Cindy walks towards me and sits on my lap, "Devon come on babe let me take away all your worries." She says kissing my jaw line. Such a whore.
"Get. Off. Of. Me." I say in a stern voice. Cindy gets up and stands up straight with her face written in anger.
"Its that girl? Isn't it? Devon grow some balls, you were not meant for her, you were meant for me! She isn't successful or as pretty as me, shes just some poor slut." Cindy says.
I do something I thought I would never do in a million years
CLAP! I slap Cindy right on the face. I can see her eyes start to water but I don't care.
"Don't dare talk about Mia like that! Your such a stupid whore!" I said, with that I left the condo.
Mia's P.O.V
I walk into the pregnancy clinic and immediately give all my information and take a seat. Today they were just gonna check if the baby was growing healthy and tell me about how much longer till I can see the baby.
I lean on the window where I can see everyone outside and imagine that any minute now Devon would walk in. Highly unlikely, he doesn't even know I'm pregnant. I had to beg Nicole to not tell a soul since it wasn't that obvious I was pregnant.
When I look through the window I make out a figure who is talking on the phone. Then he turns his head towards the window and I see someone I thought I wouldn't see for a long time. Robert.
He looks directly at me and has a wide grin before I turn my head away from the window. Oh God I hope he didn't see me. Who am I kidding? Of course he saw me, he looked directly at me with that grin. That's gonna be haunting me for a while.
"Is there a Mia Johnson here?" The nurse calls. "That's me" I said standing up and following the nurse.
Devon's P.O.V
I haven't been home all day since I did that to Cindy. I mean I feel bad about it now but she needs to learn to stop talking crap that she doesn't know.
Ring
Ring
"Hello?" I answer
"Yo man its Drake, Cheri's having a party tonight, Wanna go?" Drake says
I hesitate. I need to get my mind off of things anyway. "Yeah sure.." I say before hanging up.
***
Later that night I arrive to Cheri's house with jeans, a black V-neck and purple foamposites.
I immediately enter as all the guys nod their heads in acknowledgement and respect for me and the girls give me flirtatious greets. I go straight to the drinks as the party continues.
When I get a little tipsy I head on the dance floor and dance with random girls but I keep moving on. None of them can replace Mia.
As I walk around I spot Robert talking shit about Mia.
"Man bro, She a thot(A thot is a hoe)." Robert says as he earns laughs from his friends
"What did you say" I said walking up to him. The party goes silent as people watch whats happening between me and Robert.
Robert tries to be tough but I see the nervousness written on her face. "I said, shes a thot." He spat.
"And who is this she" I said starring at him right in the eye.
"Mia" Was his simple answer and the same time I punched the shit out of him.
He got off the floor and was holding his bloody nose. He tried to punch me back but I twisted his fist and he yelped.
"Chill man. I saw Mia outside of the clinic and the rest well... shes hiding something from you that will come in 9months." He said with a smirk.
With that I punched him till he got on the floor and kicked him in his ribs and stomach before I left out of the party.
The drive home was silent with me thinking. Why did he see her in the clinic and that shes hiding something? What did he mean by 9months? Wait -no no no. It's not true, it can't be true. Right? But then again the last time I was with her was 3months and we didn't use protection.
Tomorrow I will get answers.
