2 MONTHS LATER :
Cameron's POV -
I took the last hit from my blunt, then put it out. I finished my bottle of vodka and stood up. I looked in the mirror. I look a damn mess, but today is my court date. Today's the day London & I divorce. It's sad we going through this. I don't want to & I feel like she doesn't either.
I walked into the bathroom of my two bedroom apartment which I share with my daughter. Yeah, I been getting high and shit with her around, but it's something thats been comforting lately.
"Faithe." I mumbled.
She walked out her room.
"Yes ?"
"I'm gon' get in the shower. You stay in your room, aight ?" I licked my lips.
"Okay."
I kneeled down.
"Daddy's sorry for all this." I looked at her through my low eyes.
"It's okay, Daddy. I'm used to it." She smiled, looking down.
I kissed her cheek and hugged her.
"Mommy and Daddy both love you so much, no matter what. Aight ?"
She nodded.
"I love you too." She said.
"Aight baby girl." I stood up.
Faithe walked in her room. I went in the bathroom & turned the shower on, stepping in

I stood in the mirror, fixing the tie on my suit. I sprayed on some cologne & looked at myself in the mirror. I almost teared up. I haven't seen London in a while. She sends me pictures of Kayden. He's starting to get chubby and his hair is finally growing. He can finally breath on his own.
I already bathed Faithe. I straightened her hair and slicked it back. I put a nice dress on her and some of her mom's perfume. My baby girl will be four next month. I kissed her cheek.
"You ready ?" I asked.
She nodded & put her thumb in her mouth.
I picked her up and grabbed my Iphone, & walked out the door.
My mom & London's mom flew out to go to court.
I shook my head, making sure I was sober enough to drive. I put Faithe in her carseat and buckled her in tight.
"Well, here we go." I mumbled.

"Mrs. Parker, why do you want to divorce Mr. Cameron Parker ?"
I looked over at London. She had on a short black dress. She looked like she was gaining a little weight. Her hand was slicked back in a ponytail. Kayden was sitting in her mom's lap. She cleared her throat.
"We fight too much. The love isn't there anymore." She said.
That shit hurt.
"Mr. Parker ?"
"I don't want to divorce London." I looked over at her.
"Mrs. Parker, have you thought this out thoroughly, taking in your son & daughters best interest ?" The judge asked.
"Yes, sir."
"And what is your children's best interest ?"
"To stay with me."
I looked at her, scrunching up my eyebrows.
"Why ?" The judge leaned in.
"Well, not only is Cameron an unfit father, my children also need their mother. My son needs my milk & my daughter needs a better place to live, other than an apartment."
"An unfit father ?!" My mom shouted from behind me. She had Faithe in her lap.
"Please," London looked back her, "he's always high or drunk, or both."
"London, you kidding ?!" I yelled.
She looked at me.
"Cameron." The judge looked at me.
"She's not taking my kids." I said.
"Why should you have them ?"
"Well, one, we could schedule times for us to see our kids & two, Mrs. Parker," I said with an obvious attitude, "doesn't even have a job. The only money London has coming in is child support for my son. She has no money to support the house she lives in. She's broke." I said.
London looked at me, with tears slowly filling her eyes.
"Are you kidding me ?" She said.
"London, you disrespectful bitch. My son calls me everyday crying because of you and now your trying to take his kids away from him ? He is a good ass man & would kill to have his family back. Yeah, he made a mistake, but this is your way of getting back at him ? You're a disgrace and you're no longer part of my family." My mother said staring at London.
London had tears rushing down her face at this point.
"I can't even look at you right now." Her mom said.
They both walked out the courtroom. The judge sat there dumbfounded.
"I need a break Judge Jones." London said.
He looked at his watch.
"Court will be resumed at 5:30."
