Live Love Laugh Ft Diggy Simmons

Chapter 27: Tables Have Turned pt. 1

"Wait what you mean you know?" Khalil loosened his grip from my neck a little.

"You heard me ."

"Then why did you continue to taunt me?" He tightened his grip.

"I-I can't breath." I  managed to say.

" Oh." He removed his hand from my neck and I rubbed my it coughing trying to catch my breathe.

"I knew you were watching when you kept sending text messages that indicated you were watching me." I said walking in the kitchen to get some water.

"So you did all that to rub it in my face." He said looking confused and distraught.

"Duh nigga damn how slow are you' I did it to show what you are missing out on. Your stupid ass tried to pin some stuff on me that was clearly false dumb ass I refuse to let anyone take KJ away from me.

"How the fuck do you think I feel Erica?" He threw his hands  up in anger.

"Do you really think I give one single fuck on how you feel?"

"Wow I knew you were heartless but not this heartless. " He said in a low tone.

"When will you realize this is NOT about YOU it's about KJ and his SAFETY."

"And he won't be safe with me?"

"Are you kidding me he would be 6ft under if  he ever lived with you."

Khalil was about to speak but knew that I was right. All he ever does is smoke and drink, which is what he was doing when he got pulled over. I sighed and walked over to the couch placing my head in the palm of my hand. I lifted my head and looked at a deep in thought Khalil.

"Maybe you're just not ready for this kind of responsibility." I said in a low tone.

"Wait what?"

"Khalil face it you are not cut out for this type of stuff."

"What type of stuff?"

"PARENTING KHALIL!"

"Are you kidding me right now, says the one who cared more about her social life than her son all throughout high school, you barely went to see him when he was with your grandmother, you were so far out of his life that he started to think that you didn't love him, he would ask when you are coming YOUR own grandmother would ask if I had spoken to you because she had not heard from you in some odd days. And I'm not cut out for the parenting bull shit fuck outta  here." He walked towards the door but stopped in mid stride. "I'll be back to spend time with KJ, and if I even think that you are thinking about turning me I will kill you with my bare hands."

After his threat towards me he walked out the door.

I sat on the couch deep in thought. What the hell am I going to do I can't let my son spend time with a criminal.

For the next few days I had not seen Khalil and I was happy but a little paranoid.

Diggy came to take KJ to Chuck E Cheese with Miley today, I was a little worried at. first. I kept having this feeling that something was going to go wrong, but seriously what could go wrong at Chuck E Cheese.. Well your child can get kidnapped, break a body part or choke on a token.

Okay so maybe a lot can happen but I wont let anything happen to KJ, I know Diggy won't either.

We ordered pizza and wings and while waited for them we were playing games, Diggy with KJ, I was playing with Miley.

"Erica do you like my brother?" Miley asked as she collected her tickets from the skee-ball machine.

"Um he's a good friend so yeah I guess I so like him. He's kind of like a best friend to me." I explained.

"So when are y'all going to get married and have kids?" I coughed and choked a little on that question.

"Umm I think the food is ready let's go find your brother and KJ so we can eat."

We walked towards the slides and ball pit to find Diggy big grown ass sitting there throwing balls around like some five year old. He clearly didn't realize that we were there because he would have stopped. Finally after a minute or so KJ spotted me and walked towards me. When Diggy turned around his face flushed to red. He climbed out of the ball pit and walked towards us scratching the back of his head.

"Have fun?" I asked cracking a smile.

"Um I was just um ya know um see that was nothing. " He was so embarrassed I found it so adorable.

"You were just what?"

"Oh look the food's ready let's eat."

I laughed and started walking towards the table. "Wait we have to wash our hands first." Miley and I walked to the womens restroom and Diggy and KJ to the men's.

After washing our hands we started for the table. I saw a figure there that wasn't there before. "Who the hell is at our table?" I thought.

"DADDY!" KJ yelled as he tan towards the table towards the table.

" KJ no. " I said running after him. The person stood up and sure enough it was KJs father Khalil.

"What's up lil man." He greeted KJ as he picked him up.

"Daddy where have you been? I missed you so much. "

"Awww I  missed you too KJ. " He looked from KJ and looked at me, if looks could kill he would be so dead.

"Erica what is he doing here?" Diggy whispered in my ear.

"I don't know. Why is he here?" I asked towards Khalil.

"I came here to spend some time with the my son remember Erica I said I would be spending time with him?" He said with a smirk.

"Yeah I remember but you didn't say that it wouldn't be in public." I snarled.

"Khalil you need to leave!" Diggy said stepping in front of me.

"Dan I got this." I said pushing him behind me while I stepped in front of him. "Khalil what are you doing?"

"The tables have turned." he smiled and turned around walking away hand in hand with KJ to play more games.
