Sorry if this chapter was mad boring! Excuse the mistakes.😢

Odell

I walked into the house and went upstairs to my room. I walked in and dropped my gym bag on the floor.

"Victoria." I called out. I looked for her in the bathroom but she wasn't there. I looked around the house and found her in the backyard by the pool a few minutes later with Ashanti and the kids.

"What you doing out here?" I pecked her lips and placed a hand on her stomach.

"I got bored inside, so I came outside with the kids. While they were playing, Ashanti and I were just talking."

"About?" I looked at Ashanti then back at her.

"Just girl stuff." She shrugged.

"Ok. Well when you get inside, we have to talk." I got up.

She nodded and I walked over to Sonny and Hannah.

"What y'all doing over here?" I picked them up, ignoring the fact that they were wet.

"Playing with toys." Hannah said.

"That's cool. I tell you what." I sat them down. "What do you guys think about going to a movie and getting ice cream tonight?"

"Really?" Hannah's eyes lit up.

"Of course."

"Yay!" She said.

"So I'm gonna get you guys all cleaned up and dressed, then we can go. Okay?"

"Okay."

I grabbed her towel and wrapped it around her. "Go inside for me."

I picked up Sonny and carried him inside and up the stairs. I got the kids ready to go and then began to get myself ready. Victoria walked in our room and closed the door behind her.

"What did you need to talk to me about?" She asked.

"About Ashanti."

"What about her?"

"I think she needs to go."

"What? Why?  We just hired her 2 weeks ago and-(gco)"

"She doesn't need to be here anymore. I don't need her causing issues between us."

"What? Ashanti is a sweet person, why would she do that?"

"You don't know her."

"And you know her?"

"Yes. And that's what I wanted to talk about V. Look, Ashanti-(gco)"

"Mommy! Daddy!" Hannah called.

I sighed and walked downstairs with Victoria right on my tail.

We walked into the kitchen and saw Sonny had stuff all over the place

We walked into the kitchen and saw Sonny had stuff all over the place.

"Oh Sonny, not again." Victoria said.

I walked over to him and picked him up. I sighed.
"I'll clean it up."

"No it's fine. I have it. It's my job." Ashanti said and walked into the kitchen.

I made my way back upstairs and put Sonny in his room and walked back to our room and shut the door behind me.

"Look Ashanti somebody from my past, an ex. And I left when my mama kicked me out. Before I met you, her and I met again. I was happy I left because she was falling in love with me, but I didn't feel the same. Yeah I liked her, but I didn't love her. And when I did tell her that, she got pissed off and went crazy. She isn't as nice as she seems. Ashanti could be heartless and evil. And when she doesn't get what she wants, she gets upset." I said.

"So why didn't you fire her in the first place?" She asked.

"I didn't want to make things look suspicious or anything and you and her were always hanging out and everything."

"I understand. Do what you have to do." She said.

Mimi

"So why are you here today?" My doctor asked.

"I needed to talk to you about something. See, I did something a few years ago that I regret now and I need you to help me."

"With?"

"I want you to untie my tubes."

"Okay well I would have to have to do a physical exam before deciding wether you're able to go through with the procedure."

I nodded. "How's next Wednesday?"

"That's fine." I said.

I grabbed my things and made my way out of the door. Lately my husband has been talking about having another kid, but I tied my tubes. I've always wanted to untie them but never got around to it. Michael has been very unhappy because I can't give him another child. So I'll talk to him about it.

I got into my car and started it up before heading to Michael's job. I knew he was on his break right about now, so I decided to stop by. I soon pulled up to his job and got out. I grabbed my purse and locked my car, before making my way inside.

I took an elevator up and then walked to the front desk.

"I'm here to see Mr. Jordan."

"Sure. Follow me." She said.

She got up and I followed her to his office. The walk seemed like forever but we made it. She knocked and he said to come in, so we walked in and what I seen, shocked the hell out of me. I didn't know how to feel. Michael looked at me with sympathy in his eyes. I looked down at the girl's stomach and my eyes started to water.

I shook my head and ran out the room.

"Miranda, wait!" He said.

I ran towards the elevator and pressed 1 and tried to close the doors before he made it but it was too late because he had already made it in. He wrapped his arms around I tried hard to push him off of me but I couldn't.

"Get off of me Michael! Move!" I semi-yelled.

"I'm sorry."

"How could you do this to me?" I asked.

He looked down and then at me. "It was a mistake."

"Oh really? How?"

The elevator bell rung and I pushed him off of me. "Get your damn hands off of me."

I walked out of the building and to my car. I got in and broke down crying. I can't believe he's been hiding it this long.
