Arthurria's  pov.

After the funeral yesterday I been out of it. Losing Na'Talia is something I can't handle. I feel like she's mine. I feel like a mother that lost her daughter. I feel like..... Tashia.

Now I knoe what she felt. She felt lost and miserable.

All these emotions going through my head. Why couldn't I do what august told me ? I just should have paid more attention. Its been a day since she been gone. After dream gave me the address me, the other august and his dad suppose to go get her now.

"Everybody ready ?",Anastasia  ask and I nod. I walk out and get in the backseat.

Tashia's pov

I finally think Na'Talia is warning up to me. Spending a whole day with me has made her realize I can do this.

I plan moving out today. I meet this guy and I think I'm in love.

No , I didn't just meet him. We been talking for about two months. Finally made it official. I hope he likes kids.

There's a knock on the door and Talia looks up at me.

"I wonder who's at the door.",I say placing her on my hip and walking to the door.

I open the door to come face to face with Chris.

"Hi babeh !",I cheese. He kisses my forehead and then looks at my daughter.

Wow! Sounds weird saying daughter again.

"Who is this cutie ?",he ask comming inside.

"This is Na'Talia ! She's my daughter ", I smile and kiss her cheek.

"Why u ain't tell me about her before ?", he response. I sigh and walk back over to the couch and sit down. I pat some room on the couch for him to sit.

I began ," Her father....he kept her away from me. I hadn't seen her in like 3 fucking years ! But once I seen him in the mall with some bitch all up on my daughter I lost it. I sweared that day I would get her back. Long story short when he died I got her. And I won't let anything get in the way of our relationship.",I say sniffing and wiping my eyes.

I look up and he's smiling at her and basically playing with her.

"I think she likes u.",I smile at the lovely moment.

"Yeah ! I'm good with kids. ",he says making me nod my head.

"So yall all ready to go ?",I nod my head and pick up Talia.

We walk over to get my purse and head out the door towards her car. He has a nice care. It looked like a bends.

So I knew he had money to take care of me and my child.

"So how old is she ?"

"3",I respond. He seems to be really interested in her. I never knew him to even like kids.

Maybe he has some of his own ?!

"Do u have kids ?",I ask. He tenses and removes his hand from my thigh.

"I....Uh.. I had a baby on the way , but the mother didn't want me to be in its life. I admit I did some things I ain't proud of , but at the time I was doing it for a friend. ",he says.

What kind of things ? What did I get me and my daughter into ?

I guess he noticed I had tensed up ,because he puts his hand in my thigh again.
