Aug in MM.

Malorie A.
I watched as Jace ran into school happily greeting his friends. Kids were so carefree and happy all the time.
My heart was hurting, my mind was messed up and my emotions were all over the place.
I looked in the backseat and seen that Brelle was still sleeping peacefully.
I just couldn't believe August would do such a thing. He's supposed to be her hero.
Him of all people should know better. He's lost family members to that.
I just can't understand why he'd want to hurt his family in this way. He most likely didn't think about the consequences but it was very selfish of him.
I dropped Brelle off at my mom's house only because she always got her on Wednesday and I didn't want her to think anything.
I tried making the ride home as long as possible but failed, because I got there in under 15 minutes.
I pulled into the gate seeing Cam there smiling. I sent him a wave before driving through and parking my car in the garage. I saw all of August's cars there making me roll my eyes.
I think I was more pissed than hurt.
I walked into the house and seen him on the couch watching television, so I made my way into the kitchen. I heard footsteps letting me know he had started following me.
I started cleaning up as he just sat on the barstool looking at me. Soon I heard light sniffs causing me to turn around. August was actually crying.
I just leaned again the counter and watched him, with my arms crossed against my chest.
"I'm sorry." he cried. "I'm fucked up yo."
I just sat and watched him have his breakdown, it was obvious he needed this.
"I know it's wrong, I don't know why i did it. I'm just stupid." he cried louder while his body started shaking.
He grabbed his head as if he had a bad headache and started crying even louder. "Please don't take my family away. PLEASE."
He got of the stool still crying. "Please Malorie. Don't take my family away."
"August I j-"
"I'm BEGGING you Malorie. please." he cried loudly before dropping down to his knees and holding me.
I sighed before shaking my head. I sat down on the floor beside him letting him wrap his arms around me as he sobbed loudly, getting my shirt all wet.
Before I knew it, I was crying with him.
"Please don't take my family." he kept repeating as I held him. "Pray for me baby. Pray for me."
I wiped my eyes and tried to get my thoughts together.
"God, I come to you today on a serious matter. I ask that you send your blessings down on my husband this morning. Lord, you know his problems and I know you can do the impossible, keep him out of harm's way and help his body to gain strength as well as his mind. We know you are the greatest healer, so touch my husbands heart. We need you God. Touch our marriage God, so that we can live up the vows we made in your name, help us to be one. Once again, we need you God. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen." I said before opening my eyes.
It got quiet for a good while before I spoke. "How long has this been going on August?"
"About two months now." he replied.
"Why? How did this even start?" I asked.
He sighed. "Out one night and a buddy of mine offered it. I was already gone so I was vulnerable."
"Is this the reason you're always gone at night?" I asked.
He nodded. "My buyer works across town and I know if I get high, I can't come home until it wears off."
I sighed. "August why would you
even do that though? You know the consequences ! That's the reason your father wasn't in your life, therefore, you're repeating the cycle. "
He stayed quiet clutching on to me.
"I'm gone tell you like this, you're going into a rehab program or else, you can't be around Jace and Brelle. It doesn't have to be a overnight one, but you can go to one that's like 3 days a week. Anything helps." I said. "I love you August and you're supposed to set a example for a family. So, do the right thing."

"You're always late." I said to Cierra as she rolled into the restaurant.
"I'm sorry. Chris was being crazy." she said. "But how are you?"
"I'm...okay. Just working and living." I smiled slightly. I would never tell people what went on within my household.
"That's good. I haven't seen my babies in what seems like years." she said.
After eating and more small talk, we finally parted ways.
I hopped into my Black G-Wagon and drove home. Once I got home I went straight into the living room seeing no one, so next I checked the gym and just like I thought Aug was there.
He had the music playing loudly as he worked out.
He looked over and seen me, putting a small smile on his face.
He took his phone and paused the music that was connected to the speaker.
"You look nice." he said.
"Thanks, I just had a session with Tink." I said.
"I love Tink, she rap better than half the niggas I know." he said. "But speaking of music, when you gone write me some?"
It was hard for me to even look at him the same. It's just weird having a conversation with him.
"Um, I don't know. I'll see." I replied.
"Oh...okay." he said.
A awkward silence filled the room and I immediately found an excuse to leave.
"I have to change now...." I said turning on my heels and leaving.
This just wasn't the man I married.
