Against All Odds

Chapter 85

Amara P.O.V.

"So what happened with you and daddy yesterday?" I sat up on the counter, watchng mama do the dishes.

"Nothing, why did something have to happen?"

"Because." I started. "He was upstairs for a minute yesterday night.....nd so were you.....so..."

She turned away from the sink, looking over at me. "Oh, so something had to happen because he was upstairs for awhile?" I chuckled a little, shrugging.

"I don't know, I just know how you and daddy are somdtimes, so I was just asking." She took a deep breath, turning back to the sink.

"Not that any of this is any of your business.... but he did try me yesterday." I lifted a brow, sitting up a little.

"What do you mean? Tried you like how?" She paused for a second, sitting the glass she had just washed to the side.

"You should know what I mean, I had just got in the shower and he barged his way into my bathroom." Both of my eyes widened.

"I thought he went to the guest bathroom?"

"Nope." She said, shaking her head. "He bombarded his way inside, and jokingly asked if he could join me in the shower."

I scrunched up my face, feeling sorta awkward about this conversation. "And what did you say?"

"I turned his ass down, he really has some nerve, he's engaged and still making passes at me, joking or not it's not funny."

"I know." I mumbled.

"......Do you still think daddy......loves you?" She cleared her throat, shaking her head. "No, he's getting married, remember?"

"....But he keeps trying to get at you." She chuckled. "I know, but what I've learned over the years is that sex doesn't equivilate to love baby, he just needs to go on and get married to Miranda and leave me be."

"Yeah I know...do you think he's jealous?" She chuckled. "Of what?"

"Your new relationship with Antonio."

"Well there's no relationship yet, but I don't know...he possible could be, but that's none of my concern, I gave him a big portion of my life and now it's time to move on."

I smiled a little. "Good for you mama."

Marcus P.O.V.

"Okay everyone, now we're entering the Student Recreation Center, this is where most of your free time away from class could be spent. We have a climbing wall here, a basketball court, table-tennis, a game room, a pool and a work-out area for those of you who don't wanna waste your gas driving to the nearest gym off campus."

I sighed, following the lady who was doing the tour guiding. I had only been here for a hour and a half and I was already bored out of my damn mind. Chris and I got seperated into two different tour groups since it was so many of us, so I had been solo for the whole damn day.

"I'll give you guys the next 20 minutes to walk around and look at everything, but make sure we meet back here in this room at 1:15 for the rest of the tour." I took a sigh of relief and quickly walked away from the group I was with.

Everyone spread out around the recreation center, all going in different directions, trying to get a good look at the place, but I wasn't even with all that. I sat down at the nearest table, relaxing for these next fifteen minutes.

I pulled out my phone and took a deep breath, knowing I had a few notifications to check. I sighed once I seen Aliyah had called me four times, probably to tell me how great her tour was going.
