One more chance

Chapter X

Go back and reread the last two chapters I changed some things around!!

Teyana

I woke up the next morning from Shay jumping up in my bed. I got up and started to cook. I made pancakes, bacon and eggs. I waited for Cierra and Kai to wake up. This is probably the longest amount of sleep they've had in a long time.

Shay was in the living room watching tv while I was cooking. Kai came out the room crying. She came into the kitchen. I bent down to her level.

"What's wrong sweetheart?"

"I miss daddy"

"Umm its gone be okay but I have a surprise for you remember that friend I was telling you about?"

She wiped her tears away and nodded. I grabbed her band and led her toward the living room.

"Shay come here"
She got up.

"This is Kai, her and her mom is going to be staying here with us for a while." I said

"Hi, do you want to watch spongebob with me?" Shay asked

Kai nodded. They went and sat down on the couch and watched tv.

I finished cooking and made all of our plates. I went to wake Cierra up even though she probably was in good sleep but she had to eat.

"This is so good" Cierra admitted

"Thanks" I responded

While eating we made small talk

"Alright girls time to get dressed so we can get going?" I said

"Where we going" Cierra asked

"I hope you didn't forget about our play date today"

"Ohh yeah where you want to go?"

"We can go to the aquarium. I think I have some clothes that Kai can fit"

"Once again thank you for helping me"

"No problem let's go get dressed"

We all took showers and I got dressed in some Adidas sweat pants and white t shirt and all white huraches and wet my hair so it was curly. I dressed Shay in blue jean shorts and a white shirt with sliver glitter dots on it and white sandals. Kai had on black leggings with a long blue jean denim button down shirt and some pink Adidas shoes. I let Cierra do her hair. Cierra had on love pink yoga pants with a black shirt and black Nike roshes. I let her borrow some of my things.

Honestly I do feel sorry for her she been through alot it seems like and on top of that she has a daughter to provide for. I was going to help her get back on her feet. I feel like I can trust her she so vulnerable.

We finally got out the house around 3. I told Niyah and Tiara to meet us around 4:30 so they can meet her.

We walked around Kai and Shay was getting along great. They was looking at the sting rays. I decided that this could be the time to talk.

"So the man at the window was that Kai father?"

"Yes, I met him at one of my friends parties. We was getting along so great I gave him my number then we started talking from there. We was talking for months he treated me like I was a queen. He made me feel some type of way that I never felt before." Cierra was smiling I'm assuming thinking about the good times.

I was just listening.

"A year later I found out I was pregnant and I was so happy to be having a baby with someone that was so good to me. We was doing so good. Then out of nowhere he started smoking weed all the time getting high and drinking after I had Kai. I don't know whether it was her that led him to his bad habits or what but he just changed. He lost his job which, made us live in that apartment in the bad neighborhood. He was living off of my money he would take half of it and spend it on unnecessary things. I couldn't do anything. I don't talk to my family, I didn't have enough money to leave I have been saving up money to do that." She started to choke up

I gave her a hug.

"Its okay you dont have to finish"

She fixed herself it took her a minute.

"You know when you love somebody like you been with then for a long time that love that unbreakable regardless it's so hard to leave, even that you know deep down that you need to leave you just can't but your mind tells you that you will eventually."

"I know exactly that feeling."

"Love can put you though a rock and a hard place" I stated

We both laughed.

"You are in a better place now you can only get better for you and your daughter she is young so show her the right way how to do things. I'll be here to help you get on your feet" I said

"I don't know how many times I have to say thank you I really appreciate you honestly"

I smiled. I feel so good for doing a good deed for someone else. If I was in her shoes I would want anyone to help me.

"Look I invited my sister and bestfriend to meet y'all today so that you can meet them I mean you will be seeing them a lot."

She nodded. We went by the girls to see them pointing at the fishes. That they have seen.

Niyah and Tiara had met us with us.

"Cierra this is my sister Tiara and bestfriend Niyah" I introduced them

"Auntieeeee" Shay ran towards Tiara and Niyah

"Oh and this is my daughter Kai" Cierra said

"She is so cute" Niyah said

"Thanks" Cierra replied

Everybody had got along cool. We was having fun

"Girllllll why Daniel soft ass started crying because I said I was gone leave him" Niyah said " I was so dead I started laughing in his face he got mad then left"

"You need to stop playing with that man emotions he gone leave you one day" I replied

"I got that boy wrapped around my finger"

"You see what I got to go through" I said to Cierra

We all started laughing.

"I know this might be weird even though we just met you but your really cool she should come to Missouri with us next week, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want her in your house alone just yet not being offensive and it give her time to clear her mind and start new and for Kai to have fun" Tiara suggested

"Oh no I don't want to intrude"

"No you won't and plus the more people that come the less its going to cost y'all know my cheap self don't want to be paying that much because I want to shop when I get down there."

I swear my sister is a fool.

"I mean its not such a bad idea you need to clear your mind and have a nice clean slate"

"Okay I'll go because I need to go shopping too." Cierra said

"I like her already" Tiara said
