Not Your Typical Family

9

The next morning , it rained hard. Kacy woke up and got dressed. His things were already packed and his ticket was already bought.

All he needed to do was tell Karma and the kids what was going on with him. The drive to Kat and Dion house wasn't really a long one and when Dion opened the door, he engulfed Kacy in a hug.

Kacy laughed a little and pushed him off "nigga wassup with you?"

"Kat told me you was leaving" he said as they walked inside "And how you want us to watch the kids while you gone. And you don't know how long you'll be gone"

Kacy laughed "Yes, that's true"

"Well whatever you looking for, find it soon. Cause Moe and all them damn questions she be asking. Then ask why, it's too much"

"You want kids, right?"

"Oh damn, you right. Anyway, the kids in the room" Dion pointed towards the back and walked away. Kacy walked to the back of the room to see Moe and Keegan. Keegan sat up against a large teddy bear, and looked at Moe as she talked his head off.

"Daddy!" Moesha yelled as Kacy walked through the door. She ran up to him ans hugged his legs "We're going home today?"

"No, we're going to see Karma. It's something I need to tell y'all" he picked up Keegan and kisses his cheek. Kacy drove over to Karmas house and was shocked to see that she opened the door. "You're getting around betta?"

She nodded and smiled when she saw Moe and Keegan. "Come in"

Kacy walked over to the couch and made sure to move the pillow so Karma could sit down comfortably. She thanked him and sighed once she was sitting down.

"So, what brings you by?"

"It's something I needa tell ya, ma" he started. "Everything feels like a lie. I went to see Kenton the other day and I asked him some shit. Got some answers I wasn't expecting. My momma lied to me for so long. Kenton lied to me for so long. And the last few days, I been trying to figure out what's real and what's not. "

Karma reached out and grabbed his hand, squeezing it. She wanted to let him know , she was there for him.

Kacy squeezed her hand back and kissed the top of it "Except this. What we have, I know it's real Karma. I don't know if this what ya wanna hear but I'm so fuckin sorry for everything I did ta' ya. I was wrong and stupid for hurting the person I'm in love with. I'm stupid for hurting the only person that looked out for me and wanted better for me"

Kacy started to tear up a little and he sighed, "I don't deserve you baby, I really don't. And I understand why ya wouldn't wanna get back with me after all the chances I had but I'm asking, please. Don't leave me and don't take my kids from me"

Karma ignored the pain she was in and moved closer to him. She hugged him tight and kissed his cheek. "Kacy, I'd never do that ok? Even if we don't get back together, I'll still be here for you. You know that. And Moe and Keegan, you'll be able to are them whenever you want "

Hearing that, Kacy felt a little better. He inhalded Karmas scent as she slowly started to pull away. She wiped his tears and smiled a little "That's all you wanted to say? It wasn't that bad"

"That's not all" he cleared his throat "I needa get away for a lil bit. Leave the state and go to new Orleans. Anything to get my mind off everything that's goin' on here. "

"Wait, you're leaving?" Karma asked.

"Yea, and I don't know fa' how long"

The room grew silent as Karma still held onto Kacy's hand. She couldn't believe he was about to leave. And he didn't know when he'd be back? That made things much worse.
