Her Beef 2: A Different Me

Chapter 32

"Love is all we need"~Mary J. Blige

Six Months Later

Desire

I just watched my baby girls as they slept so peacefully in their crib. Yes that's right I had two beautiful baby girls and Aubrey and I are back together. He hasn't been cheating or acting out. He goes to work at his company that he started and then he comes home to me and his daughter's. I guess they were right when they said it takes a man to have a daughter to change his ways cause Imani and Da'sani have changed him for the best.

I talked to August a few days after Desaundra's funeral and told him that I loved Aubrey and we decided to work things out. He said that he understood but I could tell that he was heart broken.

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about Desaundra and I break down and cry. I miss her so much. Raven moved back to Miami and is now getting married to Biz who turns out to be Shakeya's cousin. You know her ass ain't happy about that. She just pregnant and miserable.

I went back into the living room with Kelly and Shakeya. Kelly has really been there for Shad and the kids. Neither one of them has told me how well they know each other, I guess in due time they will.

Carlos is suppose to be coming back from Miami today and I can't wait so he can take Shakeya aggy ass home.

"I just wanna say that my niece's are so beautiful. They have a head full of hair just like Carlos did as a baby." Kelly said.

"Yeah we didn't do a bad job. Aubrey just adores them. He spends all his free time with them and I even caught him talking to them about boys already." I said making us all bust out into laughter.

"Him becoming a father that has daughter's really changed him." Shakeya said.

"Yes it did. He said he would never put me through anything else after seeing me bring his beautiful girls into the world." I said.

For right now life was pretty good I would have to say. People have been saying that Rihanna is pregnant but I haven't seen her so I don't care. I'm not gonna let anything ruin my happiness.

There was a knock at the door so I went to see who it was. Kelly and Shakeya were still laughing and joking. When I opened the door no one was there. It was just a yellow envelope. I picked it up and put it on the table near the door.

I went and sat back in the living room with the girls.

"Who was at the door?" They both asked.

"Just some mail being dropped off." I said not really thinking to much of it.

"I'm bout to go take a nap. Wake me when my sweetie gets here." Shakeya said going to lay down.

I just sat here with Kelly and I took this as a chance to find out the truth about her and Shad.

"Kelly what is the real story with you and my brother?" I asked her.

Now don't get me wrong I am great that she has stepped up with helping him and the kids but I know what I see and I see more then what meets the eye.

"I knew this conversation would come up eventually. Shad and I met when we were eighteen. We are like three months apart. We started hanging out and hustling together which turned into a relationship. We dated for like four years until I turned up pregnant. I knew that children couldn't be factored into the life we were living so I had an abortion and left. I never told him about that until a few months back." She said wiping away a tear.
