When I got to the car I got my weed out from a compartment I had hidden under my seat and I started rolling. I was about to light it up but then I saw Lauren walking to the car.
Lauren: "Uncle 'Xavier what's going to happen now? Without Aunt Debbie What are we going to do?", she said getting in the car with watery eyes trying to hold back the tears.
Me: "We have to move on just little by little. I know this is hard for you though y'all we're super close"
Lauren: "You're right we were but why did you have to cheat? I don't want my future husband to cheat on me so can you tell me what she did wrong. I want to learn from this", I looked her in her eyes and they made me feel even worst inside.
Me: "I wish I could, I honestly don't know what I was thinking. I guess I just saw something that looked good to me but everything look good ain't good for ya"
Lauren: "So my best friend in the whole world lost her life for a mistake you made and there wasn't even a good reason behind it. You said you love her but you hurt her and took her life as the same time. I'm scared of you now, you told me you love me to so will I be the next one you kill?", out of all the things in my life that was the saddest and worst thing anybody could ever tell me. I felt every word she said and that just made me feel even worst especially because she was telling me the truth I made Debbie lose her life over something stupid and I had no reason for what I did. Nobody can take her place, we've been through so much and I know nobody can hold me down the way she can.
~One Month Later
LAUREN'S POV
Its been a month since my aunt Debbie passed. Nobody's really talked about it but I just still can't get over the fact she passed. Today is the first day of school, I'm so used to going to Aunt Debbie's because we would shop every day the week before school and then she would take me to school on the first day.
*Honk Honk
Me: "Mom, dad Pj's here I'm leaving"
Mom: "Alright have a good first day of school", I kissed her on the cheek and ran out the door. When I met him on Thanksgiving last year we started talking and now he's my boyfriend. If it wasn't for Aunt Debbie we wouldn't be together. She somehow convinced my parents to let us date. I'm happy we're together he's one of the best things that's ever happened to me and when we were in the hospital he was there comforting me the whole time.
Pj: "Hey ma you look good, how you feeling?"
Me: "I'm alright I just want to get through this day"
Pj: "I'm gone be here for you and with you all day so just chill and we gone get through this day together", he always knew how to make me feel better and I don't think I. could ask for.anybody better. I intertwined our fingers and he drove to school.
'XAVIER'S POV
"Jaidyn come on", I dressed Jabari (the new baby) and put them in the car to go over my mom's.
When I pulled up to my mom's I helped Jaidyn get out and he ran to the door knocking on it while I got Jabari out.
Mom: "Hey babies how are you?"
Me: "I'm fine" *Cough Cough
Mom: "Now your not you look sick come in and I'll fix you something to eat"
Xayvion: "What up son? What's wrong wit you?", he said coming out the room.
Me: "What up pops & I've just been feeling bad lately"
Xayvion: "Come in here", We walked into the study and I sat down in the chair in front of the desk and he sat down in the chair behind the desk. "So what's really going on with you son?"
Me: "Every since Debbie died I haven't really been able to cope. I've been sick, and man if you would've heard what Lauren told me man..."
Pops: "Well I guess you just gotta learn from your mistakes then son. If you ever do decide to date again just know what not to do"
Me: "I can't, why try to go with somebody else when the best thing I've ever had is gone?"
Pops: "That's the question you and every other man should ask before cheating. Is it worth the consequences that comes afterwards. That's something I know for myself because when I messed up with your mom the first time I wish I didn't, it wasn't worth none of what happened"
Me: "At least she still here, I can't even ask Debbie to forgive me, I can't tell her I'm sorry, I can't hold her in my arms nothing pops she gone", I can't believe it's been a month without her and I'm still crying like I just found out.
Pops: "It's alright son, you need to let all of that out so you can move on"
Me: "Now I'm wishing you would've stayed in my life. I would've known why I shouldn't cheat and you could've taught me everything, if you did I wouldn't have to deal with what I did. But now that just makes me want to be in my son's life even more, if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have stayed here."
Pops: "I know and I'm happy, you still smart so you gone be a real father to to son's and maybe even future kids"
Me: I know but I'm not trying to have no kids no time soon and I'm not trying to get with no females no time soon either"
Pop's: "I'm happy to hear you say that. You got a good head on yo shoulders boy. I just wish it didn't take me all these years to find that out"
We talked for a few more hours and my mom brought me some soup making me feel better. I went to my room and laid down with Jaidyn and Jabari and we was all in there knocked out looking like triplets.
LAUREN'S POV
Me: "Baby I don't know why but something's been telling me to go to the hospital all day", I said getting in the car with Pj after school.
Pj: "Okay but why go to the hospital?"
Me: "I know it's crazy but every since we got to school something's just been telling me to go to the hospital. Maybe it's because I'm thinking about Aunt Debbie so much"
Pj: "Alright well let's go"
When we made it to the hospital I had a different feeling then the last time I was here and different from when I woke up. I feel like a part of me that was missing is full again and my heart isn't so heavy anymore.
Pj: "Babe you feel that", Pj asked me as we got out the car.
Me: "Yeah I feel better now like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders"
Pj: "Maybe it's Debbie. What if she's your angel or something?"
Me: "I don't know but I feel better though"
We walked into the hospital and something was telling me to go upstairs where Debbie's room was after they moved her after Jabari was born and ask for her so I did.
Me: "Hi umm I'm here for Debbie Davis, she was a patient here that passed away a month ago..."
Receptionist: "Okay yes can you fill out this form for her", she said handing me a clipboard.
I stood at the desk and filled the papers out. When I handed it to her she had a strange look on her face.
Me: "Is there a problem?"
Receptionist: "Can you spell Debbie for me", I thought it was strange that she asked me that but I did anyway.
Me: "D-E-B-B-I-E"
Receptionist: "And when did you say she passed away?"
Me: "August 9th"
Receptionist: "Hmm can you hold on for a second?"
She got up from the desk and walked off and went to talk to one of the other nurses or doctors.
Pj: "What's the problem?"
Me: "I don't even know. I'm just listening to what told me to come here. I thought it would be easier to find out about her but this is to much"
Pj: "Did y'all even have a funeral for her?"
Me: "No, Ms. Yvonne was planning her funeral but I don't know what's going on with that"
Doctor Kree: "Hello I'm Doctor Kree, is there anything I can help you with"
Me: "Actually I just wanted to know a little more about my aunt Debbie"
Doctor Kree: "The one who had a son right?"
Me: "Yes sir that's her"
Doctor Kree: "Oh I thought y'all really loved her, when I saw all the people here for her"
Me: "We do, why would you say that?"
Doctor Kree: "Because no one has came by to see her after her first day here"
Me: "You told us she passed away"
Doctor: "No I was talking to the family Debby Davis. Not D-E-B-B-I-E, D-E-B-B-Y, we had two people with the same name but that's who I was talking about"
Me: "So you're telling me she didn't die?", I said getting excited.
Doctor Kree: "Yes that's what I'm telling you, but she did slip into a coma after the birth, she's been doing good and she could be waking up at any time but it's still hard to tell"
Me: "Oh my goodness", I jumped in Pj's arms hugging him crying. That was the best news I could ever hear.
Doctor Kree: "Would you like to go see her?"
Me: "Yes, of course I would"
He showed me to her room and she was just laying there hooked up to a machine. She looked so peaceful and I was happy she was breathing and moving and alive. I walked by her side and held her hand, Pj walked on the other side and held her other hand. We were sitting in silence for a while but then one of the nurses came and asked us to leave.
Pj: "Wow I'm happy we went there. I didn't know we had the wrong person"
Me: "I know, that's the best news I could ever hear. What time is it?"
Pj: "6:45, you wanna go grab a bite to eat?"
Me: "Yeah I'm hungry let's go"
He took me to Chili's and we had a 2 for $20 special. We were talking and then I got a phone call from my dad.
PHONE CALL:
DAD: "WHERE ARE YOU?"
ME: "ME AND PJ ARE AT CHILI'S EATING"
DAD: "ME AND YOUR MOM ARE ABOUT TO GO OUT OF TOWN AND WE'LL BE BACK IN A FEW DAYS SO YOU MIGHT NEED TO STAY OVER A FRIENDS"
ME: "CAN I GO OVER PJ'S?"
DAD: "NO!"
ME: "OKAY I'M ON MY WAY"
END OF PHONE CALL
Pj: "You ready?"
Me: "Yeah"
He paid for the food and we left. When I got in the house I saw Jacoby running our way. I thought he was running to me so I held my arms out but he went straight to Pj,
Pj: "Hey lil man what you doing?"
Jacoby: "Chilling", I started laughing and walked in the kitchen where my mom was.
Me: "Hey mom"
Mom: "Hey baby, where were you?"
Me: "Just out", I didn't want to tell her about Aunt Debbie yet, I wanted her to wake up first so just in case she really don't wake up the family won't be so hurt about it.
Dad: "Good you're here. Alright me and your mom talked and you can stay at the house until we get back on Thursday, no party's, no friends, be back before 12, lock up, and call us when you get home from school"
Me: "Yes daddy love you", I gave him a hug and a kiss and they left with Jacoby.
'XAVIER'S POV
When I woke up I looked at my phone and saw Latriece texted me. Latriece is a female I was talking to, she was just a booty call but she be calling my phone like I want her like that.
PHONE CALL
Me: "Hello"
LATRIECE: "I NEED TO TALK TO YOU IN PERSON WHERE ARE YOU?"
ME: "MEET ME AT WHERE WE FIRST MET , THE CORNER"
LATRIECE: "I'LL BE THERE IN 10"
END OF CONVO
I got up from the bed, threw on a shirt and my Jean shorts, some slides and I walked out. I drove to the corner I met her on. Just like when I first met her she was on the corner in a mini dress with heels on and hair barely done. When she saw me she hopped in the car.
Me: "What do you want?"
Latriece: "Lose the attitude and I called you because I wanted you to know I'm pregnant"
Me: "So what that gotta do with me?"
Latriece: "You're the father and I'm sure you are because if I don't use protection I wait about a month before I have sex with somebody else"
I had to sit there and really think about what she just said. Debbie just died giving birth and now another female talking about having my baby and I think she telling the truth because I don't think I wrapped it up with her. Well I might just have to turn a h*e into a housewife.
