Jacob's POV

•Three Days Later

Nia hasn't talked to me for three days straight. She doesn't look at me, she doesn't sit next to me, there is no communication between us. I say sorry constantly but there is no response. Makayla even asked me why her mommy was mad at me. And I'm telling you Princess, that little Maltese, is always on her side. Princess hates me right now. Yesterday she bit me when I tried to feed her.

I got home and there was no sign of Nia. I paid the babysitter for Makayla and went to our room. I stripped out of my clothes and climbed into bed. I took out my iPhone and checked my email while waiting on Nia.

Shortly after I laid down she walked in the room with a blank face.

"Nia I'm-"

I was cut off by the bathroom door shutting close. I sigh and run my hands through my hair. She comes out changed into sweat pants and my hoodie.

"See you like my hoodie." I attempt to make a conversation.

She takes it off quickly and throws it at me. I move the warm hoodie from my face and admire her. Nia stood there with a black push up bra on rummaging through her drawers.

"You didn't have to take it off."

She turns back to me with an annoyed face then turns back and pulls out one of her own hoodies. At least she looked at me.

I get up out of bed and Nia walks to the door. I run over to her before she reaches the door and grab her hand from behind her. She snatches her hand away.

"I'm sorry, baby I really am."

Nia walks to the door while grabbing something off the counter. She leaves the room and I follow close behind her. I keep calling after her but she ignores me and ties her hair up in a sloppy bun.

"NIA!" I yell louder than I ever did before.

She stops in her tracks facing forward. I try to walk in front so she can see me but she continues walking. I groan loudly and go over to pick her up.

I grab her waist turning her around to face me and raise her up over my shoulder. Nia sucks her teeth and stays still. I reach our bedroom and drop her on the bed she lays down on her back looking up at the ceiling.

"Come on Nia. I didn't mean it. I lost control of myself and I hit you which is wrong. I don't know if that's because of my childhood... or if it's really from me but I love you and I'm sorry. Talk to me babe please."

Nia sits up and looks at me. "I absolutely hate you with everything in me. When I see you I wanna throw up and when you touch me I wanna burn my skin off. Is that enough talking for you?"

What she said really did make me feel like shit and a tear ran down my cheek. She looks down.

"I shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry."

I wipe my tear and clear my throat. "No its fine. That's how you feel."

I look down in shame. I can feel her looking at me. "Princeton I'm not feeling well I really didn't mean it."

I look up at her confused. "Are you sick?"

"No." She shakes her head.

I think. "I know it's not your period, that's the twentieth. What happen?"

"I'm sort of pregnant."

"WHAT!"

She smiles awkwardly. I lift up her shirt and stare at her disappearing flat abs. I look up to her and she looked at me.

I drop her top and look at her. "When were you gonna tell me?" '

"When you noticed." she mumbles.

I give her a straight face. "Really?"

There was a silence in the room and she broke it. "Are you mad?"

"YES! Why wouldn't you tell me!"

Nia shrugs. "I was scared to tell you."

I scrunch my eyebrows together. "I always wanted a big family and you know it so why would I, of ALL people be mad."

"I don't know."

I roll my eyes. "Can you please stand up I can not argue with you like this."

Nia stands up. "I was just scared that's all." She starts crying and I don't know if its from her or the hormones.

I gather her in a hug. "I'm your husband. You gotta tell me this stuff."

She nods her head in my chest. "I forgive you."

"For what?"

"For hitting me."

I pick her up. "That was a really fucked up move I did. I'm lucky you forgive me. I swear it won't happen again."

"Where'd you get the money from?"

I sit down and adjust her on my lap. "Work, I worked for that money and it upset me that you thought I stole it or something. I just wanted us to have money if something went wrong."

She nods. "And your stepfather."

"Don't Nia. He's dead and that's done with."

Nia gets off my lap. "You don't think you'll get caught?"

"Not if you call the cops."

She rolls her eyes. "Jacob, they're gonna come here."

"Look I have two registered guns and the one I used isn't registered and after I used it I buried it. Then I wore small Timberlands and burnt all the clothes I wore so how would they find out?"

"Jacob, even if they don't find out I still have to live with the fact that the person I'm married to killed someone. I mean I'm pregnant, there is a child coming into this world and you murdered someone."

I lift her chin. "I would never do anything to hurt you or my children purposely."

Nia moves my hand. "Your gonna get caught Jacob!"

I shake my head. "I'm a lawyer. You married a professional liar calm down. I'm not going anywhere."

Nia sighs lightly. I get behind her and lay her back on my chest. She looks up at me. I grabbed her sweater and lift it up revealing her little stomach. Shit Im gonna be a father.

I reached over to the drawer and got a pen. Nia slightly smiled at me knowing what I was going to do. She laughs uncontrollably when I drawer a smilie face on her tummy.

"Just like old times." I say to her.

We used to do this all the time with Makayla and my baby that past a couple of years ago. I kiss Nia's cheek five times quickly then squeeze her.

"It won't happen again. Everything from now on is gonna be happier."

Nia looks up to me. "Promise."

"I promise."

Would you forgive Jacob?

Would you have told him that there was a chance of it not being his?
