Nova POV
Waking up this morning felt different. Leek laid right beside me with our baby on his chest. Those two and Tommy are the main people in my life. I love them to death. I love Asia, Khali, and the others as well, but we've grown apart. At the end of the day, though, I know that we all care about each other. Maybe we didn't start as family, but we are all family now. A family that's... about to be split apart.
Today was the day that all of us would be checking on our homes and handling business for them. They're going to be waiting to move in when they get their furniture, but I want to move in now. Everyone else will basically be living in the same area. It's right outside of Sacramento. Very close. If Leek and I were still were we were a week or two ago, I'd be pissed off about that. It's a good thing that we won't be too far apart.
Since we are starting to make up, I wasn't too sure how Leek would feel about us living together. I thought he would maybe want us to live together, but he is the one who said that we still need to live apart. He started acting a little cold towards me. I'm not sure what happened. Instead of getting all butthurt, I just brushed it off. The only reason he came to my room last night was to spend time with Omar. I'm cool with that though; I swear their bonding moments are the cutest. Even though Leek has matured a lot, he still says the most random shit.
It's time to get my life on track. I have dreams and goals. I'm thinking of maybe taking some classes. I'm interested in photography, videography, and art. I've even been writing a bit. I think it would be cool to maybe film my own web series one day or something. I want to do what I love, and start making my own money. I have money now, but that will run out eventually. It was money my grandparents left Tommy and I. They adored us. Too bad their son hated our guts though.
I got up to get ready for the day. Omar puked all on me about an hour ago, so I already had to take my shower for the day.
I went over to my bags and looked for something to wear. I came across a cute black jumpsuit that have the sides cut out. It was the size that I wore pre pregnancy, so I'm curious to see if I can get in it.
I grabbed my makeup bag then went in the bathroom. First, I attempted to put on the jumpsuit... and much to my surprise it actually fit! It was a bit more baggy before, but I think I fill out all the right places. I'm surprised because I never exercised after my pregnancy. That's something I'd like to get back into though.
My makeup didn't take me long at all. Hadn't worn any for over two weeks. I just felt like putting it on.
After I finished, I looked at myself in the mirror. I felt a bit self conscious about how the jumpsuit looked, even though I thought it looked fine when I first put it on.
I went back to my room and found a pink button up polo shirt to put on over the jumpsuit. I put on some black sneakers, perfume, and my necklace. Just as I was finishing, Leek was getting up.
I looked over at him as he stretched up to the sky. I hope he's okay this morning. Yesterday before his family left, he went the fuck OFF on Laila. I tried my best to get him to calm down, but her attitude pushed him over the limit. She said a bunch of nasty things to Tommy and I both, and Ms. Joyce acted like she couldn't control her at all. If I never see Laila again it'd be too soon. She is a bratty girl, but maybe some day she'll learn the error of her ways.
"Good morning."
"Hi Malik." I lightly smiled.
"Lookin good ma. Going somewhere?"
I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Umm, yeah. We all are."
He looked at me oddly for a minute before he remembered what we have to do. He then left the hotel to go get ready for the day.
