I turned around and saw a little boy standing behind me.

I couldn't believe my eyes. He was a vivid picture of me.

"Who-who is that?" I asked pointing at him.

"Oh shit" I heard herb say.

Gia's face was shocked. Nobody said anything.

"Oh my god! Baby what are you doing in these people house" a lady came in grabbing the little boy.

I furrowed my eyebrows.

"I'm so sorry my son didn't mean to interrupt. I lost track of him as we were walking. I'm really sorry" the lady said grabbing him and taking him out the condo.

We all looked confused.

"G who was that?" Herb asked.

"My... my next door neighbor" she stuttered.

I could see her shaking.

"Are you gon talk to us? Or not" he asked her.

She was silent.

"Only you" he walked towards Herb.

"Gia I fucked up! I need to talk to you!" I said grabbing her arms.

She pushed past me and walked towards Herb.

"Don't touch me" she angrily said under her breath.

She took Herb and walked with him out the door.

I sighed and punched the couch.

"Okay seriously" I heard Kelijah say.

"What the fuck is your problem" I said getting mad.

She mad a shocked face.

"Oh see what you not gon do nigga is disrespect me.. ME! Out of all people helped yo mudafuckin ass find her. Don't be an ungrateful, cheating ass bitch" she said.

And it dawned on me.

I was everything I said I wasn't gon be.

I hurt the only person in the world who was down with me when I didn't have anything. I dogged her, I did her wrong, I fucked up my chances with her.

I sat on the couch.

"She's pregnant" I murmured.

"Huh?!" Kelijah said coming closer, "who?"

She sat on the couch, "please don't tell me..." she paused.

"Oh that's a bitch ass move" she said throwing the pillow at me.

I got up angrily, "WHY EVERYTHING GOTTA FALL ON ME! WHY CANT YALL BE ON MY SIDE FOR ONCE! WHY IT'S ALWAYS GIA THE VICTIM!!"

"Nigga we were on your side... who got some other gold digging bitch pregnant?! Not Gia, she ain't even fuck with Rich. She was only with him for a while then the mudafucka disrespected her by laying a hand on her several fucking times!! Then you go and get a bitch pregnant and expect for us to think you the victim?!!! C'mon on now Bruh!!"

"He... He did what?!" I said.

She made a shocked face, "fuck" she said.

"He did what Kelijah?!" I came closer.

She looked at me with a scared face expression.

She shook her head, "no" and got up.

I managed to grip her hand and sit her back down.
