( A couple Days Later )
"Did you put cotton in'is ears?"I asked as I came downstairs.
"DAY"-Tra's voice was cut off. "Are you sure you had a baby?"Tra asked once Michael uncovered his mouth. I rolled my eyes at his question. I looked to Michael, Awaiting his answer. He nodded yes, Showing me Noah's ears.
"Fo' real though...Are you like Jailyn's twin? 'cause I don't remember her lookin' like 'at"-
"No Tra... I'm the one and only Jailyn"-
"You not the ONLY Jailyn"-
"The Mother of Sammy's kid"-
"We'on know'at either"-
"Ni-Tra, Shut up"Sammy interjected, Glancing from Noah to Tra as he carefully selected his words.
"Did you always have 'at belly piercing?"Tra asked, Starting a new conversation.
"No, I took it out while I was pregnant"I said, Glancing at my small diamond. I looked at the door as the bell rang. Sammy stood, Going to answer it. He came back in with another dude.
"Jailyn this is Dice...Dice, This is Jailyn"-
"Hi"I said embarrassed. So he was the one I made take me to the store. He nodded his head at me. "Sorry for a couple days ago... I was"-
"You straight"He shrugged it off. It was still awkward...
* * *
We all stood as we arrived at the beach. It was a really nice day. Sammy held Noah as we made our way onto the beach. It was a more private beach, Only a selection of people were allowed on it...
We got comfortable pretty quickly. There were tables and chairs and a bar...And everything else. It was nice... The boys (Aside from Michael of course) Were scoping out females and going to the bar.
"Are you not gonna drink?"I asked Michael as I spread the towel on the beach sand.
"Nah, I'on think I can... I ain't Twenty-one"He spoke. I slightly chuckled... Anywhere else he could. He sat down behind me, His legs appeared on both sides of me as I sat
"What're you doin'?"I asked, Glancing back at him.
"Chillin' "-
"Who said I want you t'chill here? I'on want yo' nasty hairy legs all'up on me"I said jokingly scrunching up my nose as I pulled a strand of his leg hair. He grasped my hand, Pulling me back onto him.
"You betta quit"-
"Who's gon' make me?"-
"Me"He smirked down at me. I rolled my eyes as I sat back up. "Where you goin' ?"He asked, I glanced back at him, Debating whether he was serious or not. "C'mere"He
said, Smiling slyly.
"No!"I declined, Trying to stay together.
"Why?"-
"B'cause"-
" 'Cause why?"-
" 'Cause I said"-
"But there's a reason"-
"Yeah there is"-
"What's the reason?"-
"Why you worried 'bout it?"-
" 'Cause you actin' like you'on like me...Like we DIDN'T have a child t'gether"-
"No I'm not. In fact, I kept that in mind... That's exactly why I don't wanna do that...I don't want to put myself in that predicament again"-
"You think we gon' (Nods his head knowingly) On the beach...Wit'all'ese people... I'm crazy, But I ain't THAT crazy"He said, Slightly Laughing.
"Yeah...You right. 'At's what your hoes are for"I said slyly.
"Nah...Come'one now..."-
"What? You mean t'tell me you ain't got ONE hoe waitin' f'yo' text?"I questioned. He sighed, Scratching his curly head of hair.
"You wan' me t'tell you the truth?"-
"Please"-
" 'Aight, I'ma be one hunnet, I been dry lately"-
"I'm surprised"-
"You shouldn't be"-
"Why not?"-
" 'Cause I ain't as much of a man-hoe as you think... Plus, I'm tryna be wit' somebody, So I gotta stay dry"-He spoke.
"Who's the lucky one?"I asked, Turning back to look at him. He smirked, Trying to avoid the question. Right before I was going to say something, Dice came up, Holding Noah.
"Aye! Sammy! Get yo' friend. He over'ere claimin' he a single Dad, Workin' hard, Strugglin' wit'a crazy baby Mama"Dice said, Laughing as he explained it. I took Noah
from Dice as he stood. "Aye! You get anything yet?"Dice asked Sammy as he stood over us.
"Nah, What they got?"-I did tell him it was okay...
I got up, Following Noah as he ran toward the water.
SAMMY
"C'mon, I was over'ere tryna talk t'my shawty"-
"Ah! You finally did it?"-
"Nah, Not yet, You kinda interrupted"I spoke, Glancing from him to Jai and Noah as they played in the water.
"Aw, My bad"He spoke, Lightly tapping my shoulder before he walked off.
"Hey boo"A female's voice spoke.
JAILYN
I looked back at Sammy as I watched Noah play. My thoughts were confirmed as I spotted the female in front of him. I knew he wasn't talking about me. How could I be so stupid...
I suddenly seasoned up as I watched Noah play. He's so cute... I Love my son, More than anything. But sometimes I wonder if it would be different if I chose not to have sex
that night. Would Sammy and I still be together? Would our relationship be different? I wonder. Noah got tired of the water and began wondering along the beach shore. So I followed him...
"Jai!"Sammy's voice called after me. I ignored him, Kind of jealous of his little female. "Hey"He spoke, Touching my arm as he got to me.
"What?"-
"I still wanna talk t'you...Wait, What's wrong?"He asked
"Nothin', I just, Don't feel good. It's hot out here"I said, Brushing a stray piece of hair away from my face.
"Nah, Quit! See! You ALWAYS do'at t'me!"He huffed. "Every time I go to have a real conversation wit' you, You get an attitude and don't wanna talk."-
"I don't have an attitude"-
"Yes you do! And it's b'cause you seen me with that girl! Which means you're jealous, Which means you still care!"-
"No I don't, You can talk to whoever you want"-
"Then why'd you get mad?"-
"I didn't"-
"Yeah you did"-
"I don't care... I have my own"-With urgency, He pulled me toward him, Connecting our lips.
"See? If you ain't care, You wouldn't'a kissed back, If you had 'somebody' you'd'a stopped me"He spoke truthfully.
