Not Your Typical Family

3

I loved you Kace, but I can't do this.

That was the last line on the first page, and the rest after that was a packet full of things for a divorce .

Just like she said.

He'd had that entire packet for about two weeks now. And he kept reading the first page. His mind was gone and he couldn't think straight.

He claimed he didn't drink but that's all he'd been doing. Drinking and smoking. Thinking about Karma and his son.

Kacy stood up from the couch and angrily threw the stack of papers, making them scatter across his living room. He looked at his phone, and dialed Karmas number.

He's been trying to get in contact with her since the day he received the divorce papers, her goodbye letter and even the ring. But he's been getting the voicemail.

He threw his phone against the wall, shattering it as he stumbled towards the door. He didn't know where he was going but he just needed to get away.

That was now the only thing on his mind.

Getting away.

"Momma, can you stay with me tonight?" Karma sniffled. She wiped her eyes as she sat on the edge of her bed.

It was hard on her to send those papers and she still had hers on the kitchen counter, unsigned.

"Of course baby, I'm gonna go check on Moe. Go ahead and get yourself comfortable"

Karma nodded and went to take a shower, a much needed shower at that. She pulled her hair into a bun and sat up against the shower wall, as the tears silently fell.

She knew Kacy was going through something, with his brother coming back and all but the way he was treating her. The way he spoke to and about her. That wasn't love. And from the looks of things, Kacy didn't love her anymore.

He was too busy trying to prove himself to his brother to even notice that Karma wasn't putting up a fight anymore.

She fought for almost three months. Now, she was tired. She still loved Kacy, always would, but she needed to focus on her newborn baby and Moesha. Kacy was a grown man and couldn't be babied anymore.

He needed to find his own way. And in Karma's mind, he would come back when he was ready.

Once Karma finished her shower, she went into the kitchen and took a seat beside her mom. "So what's been going on?" She asked, taking her mind off Kacy.

"Nothing really. My memory is starting to come back, finally"

"Doctors tell you what Joe was giving you?"

"Some date rape drug. With the high dosage and the long period of time he was giving it to me, I started to have black outs"

"But you're good now, right?"

"Yes , I'm fine now. How does it feel to be a mother? Long nights, early mornings"

"To be honest, Keegan doesn't wake up through the night. And he wakes up around 8, sometimes 9"

"Oh wow. You were nothing like that. Woke up like three times a night. Always hungry. I remember you used to run around without your diaper on "

"Oh god, stop" Karma laughed "I really don't wanna hear how I used to freeball" 

"I'm glad I put a stop to it when I did. And it didn't matter where you were, you just ripped it off and went on the run"

Karma laughed as a knock came at her door. She went to open it and Morgan, Dion, Kat, Ash and baby Morgan all walked inside.
