This chapter is mainly here as a filler chapter to wrap up this flashback. I initially didn't plan for the trip down memory lane to be this long, but it just happened that way 💁🏾. Remember, the main story isn't about the upcoming of omeeka, it's about what happens after chapter one (1. Crying Game-Part One).

ONE YEAR LATER--March 12th (Spring Break)

Narrator's POV

Meek: "Raelyn, get back over here. Don't run off like that again."

Their one week vacation to Disney World was coming to an end as today was the last day in Cali. After Nicki met Meek's daughter Raelyn months ago and got super attached, Nicki insisted on them taking a family vacation to Disney World for the week.

To say Meek was tired and stressed was an understatement. Not only had he expanded his clubs to several new locations which required a lot of his time, but also a lot has been happening with the Cartel.

Of course Nic complained about Meek being in the drug business and she was totally against it, but after setting a few guidelines and rules, Nicki allowed Meek to be "the King of Philly" as he called himself.

Things were running very smooth with Dream Chasers Cartel. They were making more money and connections and Meek knew his father would have been impressed. When he first took over the business, the mystery beef from the beginning immediately calmed down and to his knowledge, no one any longer posed as a threat to the respected family business... until just recently.

Right before Meek and Nic took this trip to California, Meek had received an anonymous letter to his Philly warehouse saying: "It's game time." If he hadn't already promised the vacation to Raelyn, he would've cancelled to stay in New York or Philly to figure the shit out, but he couldn't bear to break his promise to her.

Raelyn: "Mommy Nic Nic, can we get ice cream before we get on the plane?"

Nicki: "Yes baby, we just need to change our clothes first."

Raelyn cheered as she walked hand in hand between Meek and Nicki back to the hotel room. Raelyn adored Nicki and Nic loved Raelyn just as much. That was a difficult journey in itself because Meek's baby mother, Tasha, didn't like Nic so she wouldn't allow Raelyn to see her. But after a couple of words and an ass whoopin' or two, Tasha knew to back the fuck up.

Nicki, on the other hand, was at a glowing stage in her life. Not only had Safaree stopped attempting to contact her, but she also opened back up her clothing boutiques, expanding to different states as well. Meek had proposed in Dubai and Nicki so gladly accepted. And the cherry on top...she was finally almost four months pregnant with her and Meek's first child together after months of trying. In the beginning, it was almost impossible for Nicki to get pregnant. They tried hormone therapy, fertility drugs, artificial insemination, and lastly In Vitro which surprisingly worked.

The specialist said that Nicki's fertility issues probably were stemmed from her miscarriage with Safaree and the previous years of abuse. Because she was considered an "at-risk" pregnancy, she was being monitored closely. It was very essential that Nicki remained stress-free in order to avoid being put on bed rest any sooner than she had to which was once she turned six months.

When Nicki came out of the shower, Meek was laid across the hotel bed and his phone was ringing.

Nicki: "Rihmeek, baby, your phone is ringing," she said to him.

Meek: "Uhjsodk djdksjss," he groaned with his face still in the pillow.
