I Recently Came Across An Old Chain Of Mine 3 Days Ago .. It Was A Chain That Had Drea's Name On It .. I Had Never Wore The Chain Before.. I Stashed It Away In My Drawer ... I Went And Got The Chain Out Of My Drawer .. I Held It In My Hands , & Looked At It .. I Remembered Memories I Had With Drea From Many Years Ago..

" What's Wrong Bae ? " I Asked Drea . " D-Do You Love Me ? " Drea Stuttered . " Of Course I Do Drea ! " I Told Her . " Would You Love Me If I Was Pregnant ? " She Asked , Looking Me In The Eyes . Her Eyes Were Red & Watery . She Had Been Crying . " Why Wouldnt I ? " I Asked Her . " Craig .. I Took The Morning After Pill The Morning After The Condom Tore ... But It Is Too Late ... Craig .. I Am Pregnant " She Cried Out . I Hugged Her . " Baby , I Will Always Be Here For You & Our Child . I Will Be In Our Child's Life , & I Will Always Be Here For You & Our Child . " I Said , Comforting Her . " Promise ? " Drea Asked Looking Me Into My Eyes . " I Promise. " I Said As I Planted A Kiss Upon Her Lips .

Ever Since I Told Malinaa That We Had To End Our Fuck Buddies Relationship , She Still Blows Up My Phone , Every Day And Night . I Am Getting Sick Of It Too . Yesterday, I Had Made Plans With Andrea To Take Andrea And Zyra Out To The Zoo .. It Would Be A Fun Time For Zyra , And I Have To Show Andrea That I Actually Care About Zyra Too .
It Was Time To Go Pick Them Up . I Drove To Andrea's Apartment , & Called Her Once I Was Outside .She Answered The Phone On The 3rd Ring.
" Hello ? " She Said
" I Am Outside .. "
" Alright . I Will Be Down Right Now. "
She Came Down The Stairs With Her Keys Around Her Neck , Zyra's Stroller In One Hand , Her Purse On Her Shoulder , & Carrying Zyra's Car Seat . Behind Her Was Zyra , Slowly Walking Down The Stairs . Drea Needed Some Help . I Got Out The Car To Help Her .
" Need Some Help ? " I Asked Her .
" Uhh , I Got It . "
" No You Strugglin "
She Giggled . " I Got It.. Im Alright .. I Do This All The Time When You Aren't Here "
I Took The Stroller And Carseat From Her . I Placed The Carseat In The Back Seat . I Popped The Trunk & Put The Stroller Back There . I Closed The Trunk .
" Could You Lock The Front Door For Me Bae ? " She Asked Me As She Was Strapping Zyra In .
" Of Course . " She Took The Keys From Around Her Neck And Handed Them To Me . I Ran Up The Stairs , & Locked The Door . When I Ran Back Down The Stairs , Drea Was Done Strapping Zyra In . She closed The Door to the Back Seat & Got Into The Car. I Fastened My Seat Belt ,
" Hi Wiggy ! " Zyra Exclaimed With Joy .
" Hi Zyra ! " I Told Her . " Are You Ready For The Zoo Today ? " I Asked Zyra .
" Ywes I Am ! Thwat's Why I Am Wearing Mwy Chweetah Pwants ! " She Said , Excited . I Glanced Back & Seen Her Pants .
" Oh You Are Dressed In Cheetah Print Like Mommy Huh ? " I Asked Her .
Drea Giggled . " No Mwommy Cwopied Mwy Swag ! " Zyra Blurted Out .
" And Mommy Looks Beautiful In Cheetah Print " I Said As I Looked At Andrea . She Was Blushing . I Had My Left Hand On The Wheel , & I Locked Fingers With Drea With My Right . After 10 Minutes Of Driving , We Reached The LA Zoo . Drea Unbuckled Zyra . I Went To The Trunk & Got The Stroller For Her .
" Thanks Diggy " Drea Said As She Planted A Kiss On My Cheek . She Put Zyra In The Stroller . She Began Pushing The Stroller Thru The Gates Of The Zoo . I Stopped Near A Statue Of A Grizzly Bear Right Before The Grizzly Bear Exhibit .
" Aye Bae , Take A Picture Of Me With The Statue ! " I Said Handing Andrea My Phone .
" For Instagram ? " She Asked As She Took My Phone .
" You Know It ! " I Said As I Posed Next To The Grizzly Bear . I Was Swagged Out . I Had On My Cargos , Long Black Nike Socks , Black V-Neck Tee , & A Gold Chain With My Black Jordans . I Threw Up Westside and Drea Snapped The Picture. I Posted It On Instagram .
" What Animals Do You Wanna See Next Zyra ? " Drea Asked
" I Lwikes The Chweetahs , Zwebras , Lweopards ! " Zyra Said With Excitement
" Yeaah .. That Figures .. The Poor Child Is Already Obsessed With Animal Print & She Is Only 2 " I Told Drea .
" We Are going To Go see The Zebras First Okay babyGirl ? " Drea Told Zyra
" Okway ! " Zyra Said With Excitement As She Kicked Her Legs .
We Seen The Zebras & Went To The Little Petting Zoo ... I Was Holding Hands With Drea , And Drea Hand Her Other Hand On The Stroller All Of A Sudden I Heard A Bunch Of People Screaming My Name ..
" DIGGY ! DIGGY SIMMONS ! AHHHH ! CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTO GRAPH ?! CAN I GET A PICTURE WITH YOU ?! " A Crowd of Girls Screamed .
Drea Looked At Me . " I Think We Should Leave " She Said
" But Baby Today Was Suppose To Be A Day For Us ! " I Said
" Well How Tf All These Girls All Know We Were Here ? " She Asked As The Group Of Girls Started Getting Closer To Us . Cameras Were Flashing .. I Put My Arm Around Drea And Escorted Her To The Car .. All I Seen Was The Flashing Of Cameras And Phones .
" I- I Dont Know How They Knew We Were Here " I Studdered .
" I CANT BELIEVE YOU TURNED YOUR GPS ON SO WE CAN COME HERE AND MEET YOU ! " A Crazy Fan Yelled .
We Reached The Car . I Put The Stroller In The Trunk , Drea Strapped Zyra Into Her Carseat .. We Made Our Way Back To Drea's House .

I thought Of How We Used To Be..
Drea & Diggy Looked So Happy Together .. With Their Matching Jordans... I Remember How Drea & I Used To Go Buy Jordans Every Summer TonWear With Every Outfit.. I Rememer How Drea Used To Be My Everything . I Remember How Drea And I Used To Be Like Jay & Beyonce ... Now She Got Diggy . She Used To Always Wear My Chain Around.. Maybe She Didnt Want A 5 Star Stunna Like Me ?
I Just Miss Drea .. I Cant Help But Realize That I May Never .. Ever .. See Drea , Or My Daughter Ever Again .
I Threw The Magazine And Chain Out Of Anger ..
