Kari's POV
2 weeks...it's been 2 weeks since my babies died. 2. I dont know how I'm going to make it. It's like karma bit me in the ass for what i did to Zonnique. I never thought I'd ever lose them and now I'm alone. Ray has been by my side every day, feeling the same amount of hurt as I did. He'd just found out they were actually his and he was happy as ever. I can't image how he must be feeling.
"Ray..." I whispered as I looked over at him lying quietly in our bed.
"Hmm?" He said rolling over, and staring at me with piercing red eyes.
"I..I wanna leave. Please." I begged, while squeezing his hand.
"Where to?" He said, sitting up & staring at me.
"Anywhere. I just need to get away from this place."
He nodded and slowly slid out of the bed. I watched as he walked heavily, dragging his feet along with him to the bathroom.
I sat back and sighed. I thought about how much my life had changed since that meet & greet back in 2013. Everything went down hill from there and seems to be getting worse.
I looked up at Ray walked out of the bathroom, naked with his head down. My eyes went from his face, to his chest, to his abs, to his member, or Rayttlesnake as Team Mindless calls it. I giggled at the thought.
"What's funny?" He said walking to his side of the room.
"Nothing just thinking about what TM calls your little friend." I said, sliding out of the bed as well.
"Oh." he said, nonchalantly.
"Cheer up Mr.Sad Pants." I said walking up behind him, kissing his bare back softly. "It'll be ok. I promise. We can make more babies when I'm done with school. I promise."
"I guess you're right." He sighed, rummaging through his draw for some underwear.
I slapped his firm, tiny butt before running to the bathroom and locking the door. I smiled turning towards the mirror. I stared at myself as if I didn't recognize my own face. I looked so depressed. I stared at the bags under my eyes, the dry tear stains on my cheeks, and the puffyness around my eyes. Not to mention my tangled, curly Afro. I sighed as I turned the shower on and slid out of my bed clothes.
"Kari..." I heard a gruffy voice behind the door.
"Yes babe?"
"Can...Can I come in?"
I slowly walked towards the door and unlocked it. There stood Ray, leaning against the doorway, looking like a sad puppy. I used my index finger to lift his chin up, so that we were making eye contact.
"Ray you have got to cheer up. Be glad they're safe and in a better place now. My mom is there to take care of them. You can't be depressed forever baby. You've got to move forward in life." I said, massaging his cheek with my thumb.
He sighed before grabbing my waist, "You're right.." He whispered before kissing my nose and closing the door behind us.
I smiled to myself as he hopped in the shower. I slid off my under garments before joining him.
"Te amo bébé." I said while washing and soaking up the hot water as he did the same.

1 hour later
"Kari please hurry up." I heard Ray say impatiently as I rummaged through my room like closet.
"Raaaay. I can't find anything to wear." I whined. A few seconds later, I heard his footsteps leading to my closet.
"Kari. You don't need to be all dressy. We're just going for 2 days." He sighed, impatiently.
"I know I know but you know how i am. Can you please please please pack my bag for me? I'll make your favorite plane snacks." I begged, giving him the famous puppy dog face.
"Deal. Now move." He sneered, pushing me gently out of the way. I playfully rolled my eyes as I walked to our kitchen. Sometimes I miss Asiya being here but she's just upstairs. I made Ray his tacos and brownie cookies, waiting for him to finish packing my bag.
About 45 minutes later, as i was taking the brownie cookies out of the oven, i heard footsteps and suitcases being rolled down the hall.
"Ready." He said, tiredly.
"Ok. Give me a minute to put these in your carry on babe. You can take the bags downstairs. I'll meet you down there ok?" I said, fastly putting bagging everything up.
He nodded as I did so. I continued to pack the food into sandwich bags as I felt something lingering over me. I turned around to see if Ray had come back up to get me, but there was no one there. I shrugged as I picked up the bags and my keys to leave.
I heard a door close towards the back of the condo. I paused as I stared down the hall.
"Ray?" I called out as I walked towards our room. I slowly opened the door. There stood Zonnique. I gasped as an evil smirk plastered upon her face.
"Well hello Kari." she said, slowly walking around me.
I stared in shock. "W-What are you doing here?" I managed to say.
"I came back to finish what I started." She paused looking down at my now flat stomach. "But I see someone already beat me to it." She threw her head back in laughter.
"Kari!!! Come on where are you?" I heard Ray yelling and stomping his feet towards our room.
"Time for me to go." She said, before disappearing.
Cold. I felt cold until she left.
"Kari who were you talking to?" He asked, as he stared weirdly at my shocked face.
"N-Nobody. C-Can we go please?" I said, feeling the tears welling up in my eyes as I rushed pass Ray and out the door.
Ray's POV
Kari has been acting weird ever since we left the condo. I tried asking whats wrong but she just says nothing.
"Kari.." I whispered, nudging her as we pulled up to LAX.
"Yeah?" She said glancing up at me.
"We're here." I said lightly kissing her forehead. Im going to find out whats wrong with her sooner or later.
