"I love you." I finally admitted. "That night I came over her to tell you that I realized that you're the only woman I've ever loved and I don't know how to love anyone else."
"August I-"
"Let me finish." I stopped her. "I don't want an response because you probably don't feel the same but I have to say this. I love you. I'm in love with you. I have always been. You are the most important woman in my life you gave birth to my first child and my first son. You have the biggest heart ever. I watch you with those kids and that makes me love you even more. You are AMAZING. I might cant have you Eva and I understand that because every time I've had you I fucked up. I regret everything I've ever done to heart you. I now see that you deserve so much more than that. Any man that has you is truly blessed. It's gone always hurt to know you're with another man but that's always gone be my fault why you not with me. I love you to death and I always got you man."
"August I will always have love for you. Your always there for my kids when they need you and your a great dad but im happy where I am. He helps me and makes things so much better instead of hurting me so bad I don't know if I'll ever be okay. He cares about me and my kids. August we will never work. Our past is filled with too much hurt. I wish I could say the good out weighed the bad but it doesn't. We had a hell of a run but I don't know if I'll ever go back."
"That I don't know is all the hope I need Eva. As long as there is love there is hope." He kissed my forehead and walked away. I waited until he got upstairs. I sighed and held back tears inside of me. I was proud of myself for no allowing him to pull me back in.
I continued cleaning before going upstairs with the baby. When I got into my room I noticed Armani was knocked out in my bed meaning Royalty was probably in her room. I moved her over and got into bed with Asher. I laid there staring at my babies. They both favored their father in so many ways. I smiled and closed my eyes.
The next morning I woke up and took the kids to school. August had an interview to do so Asher and I were going to stop by Auntie Naomi's so she can see him for the first time. I pulled up to Naomi's and went to get Asher before removing the car seat I covered it with a blanket and took him into the home.
"Let me see him." She took the car sear from my hands and walked into the living room before removing him from the carrier.
"Aww, he is a cutie." She said admiring him.
"Y'all always make pretty babies so I'm not surprised."
I chuckled. "Thanks Naomi"
She kissed his cheek and put him back in the carrier. "Let me grab my shoes and we can go."
"Eva you know you're the only woman I know who has a baby then comes out like this. Your snap back be quick."

I laughed. "Naomi you're the only pregnant woman I know who comes out the house like this."

She laughed. "Im a hot mama."
She put on her shoes and I grabbed the baby and we went back out to my Suv. I put Asher in the car. I drove to the restaurant Naomi picked for us to have lunch at. She just has to pick a place in Beverly Hills. Paparazzi filled.
I parked the car and went around to grab Asher. It was not long before we were swarmed by cameras.
"Thanks Na." I said sarcastically.
"I just love this restaurant." She laughed as we pushed through the Paps.
"Eva is that the baby you had with August while you were with Chris?" A man asked.
"Excuse me?" I retorted not knowing how he found that out. Millions of questions followed after that. I ignored them all and pushed into the restaurant. Once we were seated I dialed August's number thinking he must have said something during his interview. He didn't answer his phone. "Naomi, can we just go?" I asked she nodded and got up.
::Nobody's Pov::
Naomi drove to Eva's once they got there she asked Naomi to watch Asher for her and Naomi agreed. Eva had been locked in her room for 4 hours.
::Chris:: I walked into Eva's house. When I heard what had got out I hopped on the first plane. I could only stay for 30 minutes if I was going to be back by showtime.
I noticed her sister on the couch holding the baby. "She's in her room." She said not even looking at me. I went upstairs when I walked in her back was to the door. I kicked off my shoes and cuddled up behind her kind of scaring her.
"What are you doing here?"
"Not the welcome I was expecting but what's wrong?" I could tell she was upset because she didn't want anything about Asher getting out.
"I just feel embarrassed. Im sorry I embarrassed you. If you want to leave me, I understand."
"Eva look at me." She turned around. "Eva you didn't embarrass me. I don't care what people have to say about me or you for that matter. I love you for you , what these folks have to say about this relationship don't change shit."
"I just don't want my kids to grow up and see these articles about their mother."
"They wont care. I promise." I said before pecking her lips.
"I just can't believe he told people."
I sighed. "Baby if this matters I don't think he did. They have their ways of finding things out."
I kissed her again. "Cheer up for me and the kids."
She wrapped her arms around my torso and buried her face into my chest. "Why are you so perfect?" I kissed the top of her head.
"I have to go babe. I'll call you when you get back."
She whined. "I don't want you to go."
"I don't either but I have to." I held her tight before kissing her on last time.
::August:: I was nearing the end of my interview. Last thing of the day. I was going to stop by to see the twins then head back to Eva's.
"So August, before you got here we got a call from an anonymous person. We were told you had another baby with your baby mama who's also dating Chris right now."
"Ight man. I think it's time for me to dip." I got up and walked out the studio. I looked at my phone and saw all the missed calls from Eva.
** I pulled up to Eva's and saw Justin sitting on the steps. I got out my car and walked towards the door.
"What's up Juss?" I spoke
"August can I talk to you?"
"Yeah, let me holla at ya moms first."
"It'll only take a second." He said demanding.
"Okay. what's up?"
"I mean this with no disrespect but can you please leave my mom alone."
I looked at him like he'd lost his mind.
"Im tired of seeing my mom cry. Every time you're around you find ways to hurt her and make her cry. You knew she didn't want anyone to know and you told the whole world. Now I have to listen to her cry all night. When you hurt her then leave im the one who has to comfort her and explain to my sisters why mommas crying. So im just asking if you can stay away from her."
I looked at him and nodded. I got into my car and drove off. I just never expected one of the children to say that to me. And out of respect I did as he wished; for tonight. If this was my mom I'd want the same.
I guess I would be staying over Jason's tonight but first I needed to stop by Nia's. I know she did this.
