"RASSHAAAAD" yelled Tamia.

"YESSS BABE?!" Rashad yelled back.

Tamia's voice was coming from the bathroom so Rashad followed it. To his suprise, Tamia was standing in front of the bathroom mirror holding her stomach. He couldn't help but look to the floor. When he glanced to the right he saw what looked like a pregnancy test. Just know his fucking heart dropped into his stomach.

"Babe........ It's his....... baby." Tamia said in a scared voice.

"Oh my God, what are we gonna do?!" yelled Rashad.

"Babe, we have to keep it. I don't believe in killing babies." said Tamia dramatically.

"Okay baby, if you want to keep then I'll support. I'll raise it like my own child." said Rashad.

"But how am I going to tell my mom? Even though its the result of the rape, we have a child coming into the world." said Tamia.

"Come on let's go to her job and tell her the news." Rashad said.

"But, I'm afraid!" she said.

"Not when I'm around, you don't have to be." he said.

They get on the bus to go Tamia's mother's job. When they arrive, they see something unusual. They see Tamia's mother picking up papers and belongings off the floor. Then someone yelled "AND STAY OUT" and slams the door. "MOM, WHAT HAPPENED?!" Tamia yelled in distress and comfort, while running to her mother.

"Babygirl I'll tell you later. But now, can you just please help me pick this stuff up." Tamia's mother said.

Then Rashad runs over to help them the stuff up off the ground, Tamia pulled Rashad aside.

"Babe, I'm gonna have to see you tomorrow, I need to comfort my mom when we get home. Okay?" Tamia told Rashad.

When Tamia and her mom departed with Rashad, she could help but think what the fuck happened to her mom. Even on the train ride home she didn't stop thinking about it. Not one time did she stick her headphones in her ear. That's how serious it was. She knew her mom had gotten fired, but she wanted know why. I mean it had to be really bad for someone to yell "AND STAY OUT" right? What Tammy is about to hear from her mom is about to change her sense of respect for her mother.

Tamia had waited patiently until her mother was ready to tell her what happened to her today. When Tamia was laying on the other side of her mother in her bed while they were watching tv, she just blurted it out.

"Tammy, you know how I told you your father left both us right after you were born right?" Tamia's mom said.

"Yes, why?" Tamia said.

"Well Tamia...... I.... Lied. Your father is, well, was my boss at work. Today I made a big scene at work because I just got tired of looking at his face. When I looked at him I always saw you & thought about how you don't know the truth about him. Tammy, your father rapped me when I was 17 & he was 2O. It happened at a party a very long time ago. It was a very large house party that distrubed the whole block. He came by a couple of times to ask if they could keep it down because he had a test to study for but it never worked. I stayed until the party was over, around when it was like 3 people left. I was in the guest room and he opened the door and jumped on me. I never had a clue that he was even in the house. When he tried to get my clothes off he had forgot to lock the door & ran to lock it. When he ran to the door, I ran to the window. I mean that way out was better than what was about to happen to me & it was only on the 2nd floor. But before I even got to the window he grabbed me. I really don't want to get into detail but I know at the end of it he busted inside me. And I had no idea what to do. As soon as he was finished he ran out the room. And as for me? I just sat there on the bed still in shock. When I finally got some sense, I ran and told my friend what happened. And she couldn't even believe it because that was her next door neighbor. When I reported it to the police they drove to his house, rang his doorbell, and took him into his custody. The day our court date came was too much for me to handle. I had to be at the stand with my belly poking out. He didn't even care. At the end he wasn't found guilty so the charges were dropped. Since that day I haven't seen him until 3 years ago when I started to work at Neiman Marcus. When he saw me he didn't even notice who I was but I knew exactly who he was. I tried to stay as far away from him as possible. But I think as soon as he read my file and was familiarized with who I was, he KEPT and KEPT calling me to his office. And everytime I came to his office, he acted as if he didn't know who I was. So I just let it slide but after a while I started to crack. What made me make a scene at work was because your father called me into his office just as he did EVERY FUCKING DAY. But today was drastically different. When I came in he said, "Cheryl have a seat. Now I know that you know for sure that I'm not fucking stupid. Did you ever tell my seed about me? About how I made you scream in pain? About how I nutted inside you & 9 months later she came? About how I saw you in court with your big ass stomach, and I didn't give a fuck knowing it was my baby?" he said.

"Then I paused, trying to process what the flying fuck this nigga just said to me. I didn't even respond directly to him. I simply got up, opened his office door, and started shouting about ALL the stuff he has done to me. Everyone's mouth dropped and he was embarrased. So he fired me. Low life ass piece of shit." said my mom.
