I stretched my arms as I claimed out of bed. I was off today and decided to chill in the house. I didn't really feel like doing anything.

I walked into the bathroom and washed my face and brushed my teeth while listening to a song I was playing from my phone.

After I finished I took my towel and washed my face and hung it back up. I walked to Dre's room and knocked on his door but he didn't answer so I just opened it and seen that he wasn't here.

He's been gone a lot lately but I didn't question it. You never know what that nigga be up to.

I walked out of his room closing the door behind me and walked into the living room and layed down on the couch. I turned on the TV and flipped through some channels til I found the movie ATL on BET. This was my shit and it was funny as fuck.

I heard my phone ringing so I glanced down seeing that Nene was calling. I smiled to myself and answered it.

"What's up Mah?" I spoke into the phone.
Nothing I was just calling to check on you hunn, what you doing? She asked.
"Nothing chillin, you good?" I asked her.
Yea I'm fine just on my way to the store. I might come over to see you later she said.
"Iiaght that's cool. I'm off today so its whatever I tell her.
She said OK and we hung up.

Nene was cool as fuck. If I could wife her ass I would but I don't think we should go past that boundary cause we too close.

I decided to called Moriah and check on her while I was sitting here doing nothing. The movie had went on commercial and I didn't feel like searching for another show til it came back on.

I dialed her number and put the phone to my ear listening to it ring.

After the fourth ring she picked up and said hello.

"Hey what's up with you?" I asked her. Moriah was beautiful but the way she carried herself was what made her ugly. I don't really mind having this child with her. Long as she not gone be with all that drama.

"How's everything? Do you have a doctors appointment coming up?" I asked her.
She said yes and said it would be on the 15th of this month. That would be 2 weeks from now. I told her I would take her and just call in if I had to work that day.

"Kev I have a job now"...she said.
"You do? Where at?" I asked her.
"Umm...its not going to be the job you would want me to have but it was the quickest one I could find." She mumbled.
I made a face and asked her where it was at.
I could here her moving around through the phone like she was trying to get comfortable or something. "Heellloooo" I said growing annoyed waiting for her to tell me.
"I'm a stripper." She said.
I felt myself getting angry. Who the hell gets a job as a stripper knowing damn well their pregnant! "That's just stupid as fuck Moriah! I have a job but if your carrying my child I don't want you working there at all!! What the fuck are you going to do when you really start showing huh? That don't even make no fucking since. You could have easily put in applications at a fast food restaurant or something. Like damn have some fucking respect for yourself for once in your fucking life!" I yelled into the phone.

I knew the girl had problems, but I didn't know she was dumb. I don't have nothing against strippers but at the same time who the hell gets a job being a stripper while pregnant.

"Kevin I'm sorry, I knew you would be angry but at the same time I have to find a way to at least make a little money while I can. Soon I'll be showing and while I'm working at the club I'm going to be putting in applications at other places too."

I just hung up the phone for real. The girl just done pissed me off. Its just certain shit you don't do while pregnant, regardless if your showing or not. That shit just did not sit well with me.

I got up and turned the TV off and walked into my room to get my keys. I needed to go somewhere to clear my mind. Between Moriah, Dre, and my fucking job...I just needed some time to think about everything and get away from everything and everybody. I knew I couldn't do that staying here.
