**4 Years Later**

Macy's POV.

I woke up to Spongebob and Patrick yelling about who was "Dirty Dan". I looked beside me to see that my little girl, Kiva, had crawled into bed with me and was watching the scene before her with happy eyes. I looked over at my phone and noticed a green blinking light. I ignored it for the moment then rolled over to face Kiva. She looked at me and smiled.

"Hi, mommy! I'm happy you awake now, I need ceweal (cereal)." She said. I laughed a little and she added, "please?"

Giving in, I grabbed my phone, got up, and went to the kitchen. I heard her pitter pattering feet following me and smiled.

Bzzt!

I looked at my phone to see that Jericka texted me.

'Hey, you up?' ~J

"Kiva, can you get the cereal and milk out for mommy please?" I asked. She nodded and got the box of cereal off of the small cereal stand I had for her. Setting it on the table, she looked hesitant.

"What's wrong baby?" I asked. She looked down at her bare feet.

"The miwk (milk) is too heavy." She said. I laughed a little at how adorable she was and I noticed that she had her fathers features. I shuddered and got out the milk.

'Yeah why?' ~M

After fixing her bowl of cereal, I made myself a caramel latte and a bagel.

'Meet us at the park.' ~ J

'Okay, but I'm bringing Kiva.' ~M

'I rather you not, but..okay.' ~J

'Why not?...Ukw...nevermind.' ~M

"Come on baby, let's go take a bath and we'll go to the park so you can play with Lisa and the boys." She squealed in delight and smiled. I saw her father's face flash in my mind for a quick second. There was a dull twinge in my heart, but I quickly disregarded it.

After an hour, we were clean, dressed, and on our way to the park. She sat in the backseat of my 2016 Toyota Camry, rounding up her barbies and giving them a pep talk. I looked in the rearview mirror and saw her contentment.

We arrived at the park and Kiva wasted no time running to Lisa and the boys with her barbies. I locked my car doors with the fob and made my way over to the crew. Aaliyah and Caine were now 3 months pregnant for their fourth child. The boys were twins and Lisa was an only girl. The boys were about to be five in December, and Lisa had just turned four. Unlike Kiva's birthday in June. The 26 to be exact. 2 days before my own.

"Hey guys." I greeted. They all said hello and I sat down.

Meka seemed to look flustered as Jericka looked a little guilty. Aaliyah and Caine wouldn't look me in the eyes.

Hmmph.

"What'd you guys do this time?" I asked. They all shook their heads and I gave them the 'oh really' look. Meka sighed.

"Macy... There's something you should know." She said hiding behind her hair. I furrowed my brows and Jericka moved her wild curly hair away from her face.

"What is it?" I asked. Meka looked at Jericka and she sighed.

"Mace, ther-"

RIINNGG!!! RII-

"Hello?" I said.

"Macy, I need you to come into work today." My boss said. My boss wasn't really a pleasant guy. He was tall, scrawny, and looked like a mole rat. A naked mole rat.

"Boss, I'm kind of bus-"

"Now!! Or you're fired." He then hung up. I sighed.

"I am needed at work." I frowned and looked back at Kiva who was playing with the other kids.

"Can you-" Today must've been interrupt Macy day.

"Yes, we'll watch her." Aaliyah said with a small smile.

I smiled gratefully and thanked them. I went to Kiva and kissed her cheek.

"Mommy needs to go to work sweetie, I promise I'll be back before dinnertime, okay?" I told her.

She nodded and hugged me.

"See you later mommy." She said.

......

When I got to work, he was immediately putting me at the bar. I didn't say no more to him than I needed to.

I was fixing drinks left and right for hours as drunks either insulted me or hit on me. I'd become accustomed to the routine of Jim's Peep Show.

It was a strip joint and club. I didn't like being around all of this behavior, but I mean...it pays the bills and gets my baby girl and I fed. Luckily, I inherited my mom and dads house after they passed in a car accident. No rent for me.

As I was serving up a man at the bar, I heard a commotion. It was almost my time to clock out and now a commotion was starting.

'What the hell?' I thought to myself.

I went to go see what was happening and saw a man punching the life out of another.

"Get 'em offa him!!" My boss yelled at me.

I pulled the guy on top of the now unconscious one and dragged him to the back room where the first aid was.

"What the hell!!!" He yelled at me.

I got the first aid kit and sat down in front of him.

"Sir I'm going to need you to calm down while I fix this." I looked up at him and he calmed down.

"Okay." He nodded and I began to clean his wounds.

"Why were you fighting, if you don't mind my asking?"

He sighed, "I came to visit my girlfriend and well...I went to her dressing area and they had their tongues down each others throat.

I nodded.

He had a few cuts on his face and once I was done, he thanked me with a small smile.

Before he left I called out to him, "Hey! I hope you get better than her."

"I hope so too." He smiled then left.

.......

When I got home it was 5:01. 29 minutes before dinnertime.

I took a shower then called Aaliyah.

"Hey Macy!" She said. I heard a male's voice in the background. It was not Caine's...but then again...I heard Caine's voice too.

Huh?

"Mace?" She asked.

"Oh, um, yeah." I replied. I heard her laugh a little. She sounded nervous.

"Macy, Kiva's with Lisa in her room, if you want to come over." Aaliyah said. I nodded and remembered she couldn't see me.

"Yeah, I'll be over in a minute." I replied and hung up.

I fixed my hair into a bun and put on a pair of fuzzy moccasins.

When I got there, I saw an unknown car in the driveway. I thought nothing of it, so I shook it off.

I parked my car and went up to the door. I heard rumbling laugh and thought it was Caine's. Opening the door, my eyes widened and there sat the man I never thought I'd see again, sitting next to a woman who was the reason I am in this position.

Trae Hilson and Angelica Weaverly.

"Macy..."
