[Trilogy: Please Read "Life After Marriage" before reading this book!]
Victoria and Odell are back 16 years later with their now grown up children Sonny and Olivia.
Everyone has been doing quite well and their life is basically perfect, but it won'...
"Victoria, just take the damn test." Mimi said over the phone.
"I'm kind of scared about what it's going to say. Odell says that he didn't want anymore children." I sighed and sat on the toilet seat.
"Look girl. Don't even worry about it. Odell will get over it. Now take the test and call me back in fifteen minutes." She said.
"Alright. Fine." I hung up the phone and sat it on the bathroom counter.
I picked up the test and took it out of the box.
"Here goes nothing." I said before doing my business and cleaning up before getting up. Now all I had to do was wait for the results.
I had never been this nervous in my life when having to find out if I was pregnant or not. Odell said he didn't want another baby and now I might be pregnant. I paced around the bathroom and patiently waited for the test to finish. As soon as the test beeped I got up and walked over to it. I picked it up and there was two lines.
I was afraid that this would be. I was now pregnant and my husband doesn't want another child, even though I do. I'm very happy but I'm just worried about what Odell will have to say when he finds out.
I put the test back into the box and closed it before I walked out of the bathroom. Just as I was walking into the room, Odell was walking in also.
"I want you to meet somebody Victoria." He said.
"And who is this somebody you would like me to meet?" I raised a brow.
"One of my good friends, Bree. We grew up together and we just got in touch with each other a few weeks ago."
"Where is she?" I asked.
"Well we're going to have lunch with her today." He said.
Honestly, I didn't feel like going anywhere, but I guess I should go and meet this friend of his.
"Fine. I'll go and get dressed." I said before walking into the bathroom.
I took a quick shower before drying off, brushing my teeth, doing my hair and makeup, and getting dressed.

I fixed my bun and slipped on my glasses. I walked downstairs and to my car. Odell and I got in, buckled up, and were off to meet this "friend" of his.
And I was surprised when I found out it was a girl. I didn't quite agree with it, but I should meet her first. Right?
Odell
Once we pulled up to the restaurant, we got up and walked in hand in hand. I spotted Bree across the restaurant and I walked over to her.

"Hey." I said.
"Hey Dellie." She said getting up and hugging me and kissing my cheek.
"Bree, this is my wife Victoria. Victoria his is Bree, an old friend." I said.
"Nice to meet you." Victoria stuck her hand out.
Bree tried to slickly fake smile and shook her hand. "Likewise."
Victoria frowned but quickly removed it before pulling her hand back. She looked at me and then sat down. I sat down next to her and we soon ordered some drinks.
"So Odell how have you been?" Bree asked.
"I'm pretty good. Just working."
"That's pretty cool. I heard that you just got back from New Orleans."
"Yea Victoria's brother had a party for his birthday, which is the main reason we went back home."
"Mhm. That's nice." She said sipping her drink.
3rd Person
The whole time at lunch, Odell and Bree were the main ones conversing at the table. Victoria wasn't interested to hear what Bree had to say. She was just ready to go home.
She caught certain vibes from Bree and she didn't like it one bit. Tori already knew that Bree didn't like her. Every time she would talk Bree would ignore it or act as if she was uninterested. And as much as she tried to ignore it, she couldn't help but to get upset.
Meanwhile, Odell could sense that Victoria was upset but he didn't know why. Just after lunch ended, Victoria paid for her and Odell's food and headed out to the car.
"What's up with her?" Bree asked.
"I don't know. I'll talk to her. Bye."
She hugged him. "Bye."
They both parted ways and Odell got into the car.
"What's up V?" He asked.
"Im fine Odell. I just want to go home. Please." She said calmly, but on the inside she was annoyed.
"Your not fine Victoria. I know when your upset. Now tell me what's up?"
"I don't like your lil fake ass friend, that's what's up. During lunch, she was acting petty with her childish ass." Victoria said.
Odell chuckled. "Really?"
"So this is funny?" Victoria asked. "Alright."
"Baby I'm sorry. I was just playing." He said kissing her cheek.
"Mhmm."
Olivia
School had just let out and I was ready to go home. As soon as the bell rung, I rushed out the door and to practice.
"Hey Livvie!" She heard someone say.
She turned around and saw Jacob. It had been a while since they talked and she had missed him. She walked over to him and pulled him into a hug.

"Hey." She said.
"You forgot about me?" He asked.
"Of course not."
He smiled. "I thought so." He wrapped her arm around her and they walked to practice together. Once they made it there, they parted ways. Jacob went to football practice and Olivia was on her was on her way to track.
