Just Being Honest

Different

Leland Boyfriend In The MM
Lee POV
I've decided to go see my dad with Leland today. He wants to introduce his boyfriend to dad. I just want to see my dad. He has really grown on me. I really didn't want to have a relationship with him but now I do. I've really been sad for a couple days now because Hendrix left for the navy. Yeah he forgot to mention that he signed up for it a year ago and they are just now let him go. I really didn't want him to leave. I pray that he makes it home safe because I can't handle another.

Leland boyfriend is a cutie. He seems like he really in love with Leland. He always making sure he good and got everything he wants. Leland and Justiono friend didn't work out because he cheated on him. You know he related to me because of how he broke up with him. He really embarrassed him in front of a lot of people. I'm still laughing till this day and it's been five months. Tommy ( His boyfriend) is one of JoJo brothers. They found that out when Leland was asking about his family and he said his father name. JoJo says his dad has like 15 kids. By like eight different women. JoJo mom was the only one that he had one child with child every other woman has two kids.

JoJo POV
Since I found one two of my siblings I decided to try and find the rest. Finding Tommy and my sister April is a relief. Seeing that April is only two days older and Tommy a year younger than both of us. A lot of my siblings are the same age or a year or two older. I know I have a brother who was born the same day as me. And the sad thing about that is he is the same age as me. My sperm donator was just out here raw dog everything he could. But the real fucked up thing about it Wes's my mom killed her self because she couldn't raise me and because that man was cheating on her. My mom was the only one he had an actual committed relationship to. I know you are wondering how I know all this.

I know this because my racist grandparents sent me a letter and some money when I turned 18. It had who my father was and letter that my mother had wrote to me. I read the each letter everyday. It makes me cry but also gives me joy. To know that she really loved me and wanted me but couldn't have me. She wanted to raise me and be my mother. But she couldn't because of her parents and no good ass sperm donor.

This one letter she wrote me was more like a poem. It was so beautiful and gave me strength to keep going.

The Poem
You never hide your pain from the one who remained the same. You can shield your pain because it will only cause a strain. You can never love yourself if you don't who you are. You can try to love but it will always remain at a far.

Two hearts don't measure up to one if the person you love is on the run. Never use a figure of speech on love. Because the one you love gets hurt.

Always remain fearless in love. Because your fear would be the cause to hurt someone. Always find things that make you happy. Because your thee one to who will end up sappy."

Every time I read it I cry. It gives me the strength I need to keep going when I feel like quitting.

Lee POV
Tommy, Leland, and I walked into the visiting area. I seen my dad walking out with a big ass smile on his face. I just realized that Leland looks just like him. From his head to the rest of his body. He had mom skin color for sure. Dad sat down at the table still smiling. He looked at Tommy and got serious. It was so funny how his facial expressions changed so quick .

He said " Leland who is this?"
I just laughed because he was very overprotective of Leland. He told him how Justiono friend broke his heart.
Leland rolled his eyes and said " Dad this is Tommy my  boyfriend. No he nothing like Tomas."
I said " Yeah dad he nothing like him. I know for sure."
He turned to me and said " How are you and ohh boy going?"
I said " It's going great but I miss him. He left for the Navy last week."
He said " Ohh yeah I'm pray he make it home safely. Now back to you Tommy is it?"
Tommy said " Yes sir it's Tommy."
He said " I'm just let you know this don't try to hurt my son. Because I will hurt you it may not be the moment you do it but I will hurt you."

I just burst out laughing because he is really crazy.Plus he had little Tommy scared. Leland wanted to laugh so bad but he didn't want to hurt his feelings. Dad, Leland, and Tommy talked for about an hour. Then it was time for me to leave because I had to be back on time to get Jay. I try not to think about Donald when I look at Jay. But every time Jay look at me I see him. He has his eyes and it kills me.

On the ride back I got a call from Hendrix. I instantly answered it. He popped up on the screen with a big ass smile on his face.

He said " There go my baby looking all sexy and fine."
I said " There go my baby looking all white chocolate sexy."
Leland made the gagging noise.
I laughed and said " How are things going down there? Are they treating you right?"
He said " They going good. How my baby doing?"
I said " I'm good just tired "
His best friend Kendrick came waving in the phone.
He said " I really miss you baby."
I said " I miss you too I can't wait till you come back."
He said " Yeah me too I only got two months and then I'll be back for a short period of time."
Kendrick said " Ohh stop with the mush stuff."
I burst out laughing and said " Don't be a hater because you ain't in no relationship."
He said " Shit I'm good. I got to keep my nigga relationship in check."
Hendrix said " No you don't I got it. Baby have you talked to Joyce?"
I said " Yeah we going over there after we get Jay."
He said " She ain't answer my calls I calls I think she still mad at me for just leaving."
I said " Yeah I can understand it because I didn't want you to leave."
He said " I know you didn't but I had to take the opportunity while I still can."

Me and him talked for about an hour and then he had to get to work. I pulled up at Jay school seeing Coach Joe hugging up on someone.

Leland said " Ain't that JoJo boyfriend."
I said " Yeah that him. But I want to know who he hugging on."

I took a picture just to ask JoJo who she was. I didn't want to just jump to conclusions on a relationship that ain't mine. Jay came running out the school to my car. He got in and spoke to everybody.

I said " How was your day at school?"
He said " MaLee I actually had a good day at school today."
I said " That good well we going over to Auntie Joyce so Do you want something to eat?."
He said " Yeah I want some O'Charleys."

I know he just wanted some rolls but I ordered him some chicken tenders to. I waited 30 minutes for all our food to get ready and I picked it up. We then headed over to Joyce house. When we pulled up I seen that JoJo was already here. So we all just walked in the house. I gave Joyce, JoJo, Jay, Tommy, and Leland there food. We sat down and ate like pigs.

I asked JoJo" Do you know who this is?" I handed him my phone so he could see the picture.
He said " No I don't know who that is."
Jay looked at the picture and said " Ohh that Ms. Hampton his ex- girlfriend."
We all snapped our head in his direction.
I asked " How you know that?"
He said " Because she used to be my teacher and that's his baby too."

JoJo looked a little heated but acted like it didn't bother him.
