What Is Love?

Chapter 51

Shit gets old.
You get tired of trying to work things out. You
get tired of giving chances.
Sometimes you just have to
let people go.

I woke up with Neveah laying beside me in my old room at my dad house. I miss living here and now I got my own place so sometimes I forget I'm just 17.

It feels like I'm in my 30's with all the responsibilities I have.

I looked beside me and saw that Neveah was awake so I decided to cook breakfast. We walked to the kitchen but I saw my dad girlfriend Angela cooking.

I really have to get use to her here because she feel like a stranger to me.

"Good morning"She said smiling really hard.

"Good morning"

"I cooked breakfast so you guys can just sit down and I'll bring it to the table" She said and I nodded.

I walked to the kitchen and sat at the table with Neveah. A few seconds later Angela came in with our food. She sat down at the table and we all ate.

"Your daughter is so beautiful"

"Thanks" I smiled.

"How old is she?"

"6 months, it feel like I just had her yesterday"

"Do you think your dad is gonna marry me?"

That shocked me where I almost choked on my food. The conversation was going good until she asked that.

"Why did you ask me that?"

"I mean I've been talking to your dad for a long time and I'm just waiting on him to put a ring on this lovely finger"

"Well I mean I don't know"

"Can you ask him for me? I mean I really wanna know because I wanna start a new life with him?"

"Just because y'all are not married that doesn't mean y'all can't start a life together"

"I forgot you is too young to understand" She said getting up.

I understood very well and she wanted my opinion so I was stating it. I hate when people ask for your opinion and you tell them and if it's something they don't like or don't wanna hear they get mad. I just met this lady and I'm already starting not to like her.

Couple of hours later......

I was on my way over to Nia house to apologize to her. I hope she forgive because I don't want her to be mad at me.

I was at my house getting ready to make dinner for me and Neveah. I head a knock at the door and went to check to see who it was.

There he was just smiling with some flowers in his hands. I let him in and walked into the kitchen.

He walked in the kitchen and handed me the flowers and I started laughing.

"You really think you can just come over here smiling and bring me flowers like everything is okay?"

"I said I was sorry"

"Do you know how many times you said sorry and do the same stuff over again? I get tired of the same stuff with you"

"Like I said you need to teach Neveah to get use to sharing me because I'm not gone always be around. I do have a son and she's not my only child so it's really not my fault"

"Did you really just say that? You could have just came and got Neveah and told her with you if you really wanted to spend time with your children. Don't come at me with all that she need to share you and all that"

"You acting like I'm a bad father or something. I been in Neveah life more than I been his so don't come at me on some selfish shit"

"I understand that you wanna make up for the time you have missed with your son but don't stand my child up because you with him and his mother"

"Every time I come around you always on some relationship type of shit so that's another reason why I didn't come"

"I've been moved on from you. I'm not about to keep wasting my time on somebody like you. You can't talk about me I've better myself and you're still the same. You so selfish that you don't even care about nobody but your damn son"

"Okay"

"Yea, okay that"

"I'm not about to sit here and keep arguing with you because I apologized a million times"

"Yea, now go over there and spend time with your son because I don't want you here"

"Don't keep putting my son into this like he did something to you. If you really wanna be mad then be mad at me"

"Bye, Lucas"

Honestly I'm tired of arguing with him about the same stuff.

Our relationship.

Neveah or his son.

That's the main thing we argue about and it's like we can't have a simple conversation without that coming up.

I understand that he didn't knew but it's the fact that now he's making a difference with my child and I don't like that. 

"NIA"

"Why are you yelling?"

"I've been calling your name for the longest"

"What do you want?"

"Do you think about how it could have been if we were still together?Do you still think about us having a future together?"

"Telling you how I feel will just like a waste of time because you still gone treat me how you wanna treat me. You gonna continue to do the same stuff. Sometimes I try to hide my feelings when I be really caring the most"

"I wanna be with you too, but I'm just not ready to be in a relationship right now. Right now I feel like us being together will cause to much drama between you and Sydney"

"Ok, that's why I'm willing to move and find someone who can understand me and be there for me"

"We can be together, just not right now"

"So you think I'm just suppose to wait on you?"

He looked down and didn't say anything for a second. He looked back up at me and nodded.

I started laughing because he really think I'm about to sit here and waste my time then end up keep getting hurt.

"Well I'm not"

"You saying that now"

"Go check on Neveah she's in her room sleep but she's probably woke by now" I said trying to change the subject.
