Prologue

Najah Zoyaè Reese

At 18 years old just freshly graduated from high school I got married to the love of my life, Martez Ty'Shawn Reese. I remember when we met which was freshman year of high school and he was a senior. He asked me to go to the homecoming dance with him. From that day forward we started dating.

At the time Martez was 21 Years Old when we got married. Everything was amazing and just beautiful. A year later I got pregnant with my one and only son Zamir Ty'Shawn Reese. The minute I held my son I fell in Love all over again. The way his little hand was wrapped around my finger I could tell that he was going to be a mommas boy.

After Zamir was born Martez convinced that Zamir  And I should move to Maryland Baltimore to be exact. He got this four million dollar contract. I took this as my opportunity to go back and get my masters in business. Which I am beyond happy about because now I have my own boutique. Zoyaès Boutique, where I sell clothing, shoes, and also offer sew ins, frontal installation, make up, and eyelash extensions , waxing and eyebrow tenting.

Zamir was only six months when we decided to move from our home of Grambling Louisiana to Maryland. Martez moved us into this big fine mansion. It was 6 bedrooms with 6 baths. Zamir had his own play room, and all.

Two years into us moving to Maryland Martez on March 18, 2012 Zamir And I had just came back from getting his dad something to eat. When I heard noises coming from our bedroom. Once I found Martez cheating I decided to stay. You might be like this dumb bitch, but if you've been with somebody ten years but not just somebody your husband. You wouldn't leave because you guys made a vowel, for better or worse , for rich or poor. I was going to live by those vowels for the rest of my life.

April 16, 2014 Martez cheated again only this time he got another girl pregnant. Yes I said it pregnant. Now that hurt me so much that I left Martez. I couldn't take it anymore and came to the conclusion that we were better off separated. I couldn't divorce him just yet. Thing about was that he got my best friend Bianca pregnant. So this wasn't just some random girl from the club. This was my better half my ride or die.

But something should've told me that she was messing with him. Because every time I would vent to her she would try and convince me to leave him. Sometimes she would convince that he probably got another girl pregnant. The way I found out was she had the baby and tagged him in it & named him Martez Ty'Shawn Reese Jr.

Now why I was pissed at Martez was because of the fact that he didn't want Zamir to be a Jr. he claimed as if he hated his name. So that's the very reason why I was pissed. I was beyond hurt but I realized that I am a beautiful black woman. I realized that I'm a good ass wife. So now this is my life a separated single mother dealing with my  ex husband and bitch ass best friend.

" Mommy can I skip school today ?" Zamir asked me

" no Zamir your not sick and your not missing school " I said putting on my shoes

" but mommy, my teacher is mean  and my friend Kareem isn't going to be at school" he said

" okay so how about this when you come home from school you can go over grandmas " I said

" promise mommy ?" He said

" I promise baby " I said

My mom moved down here a few months ago. I'm glad she did so whenever I have to stay at work late I take him over there.

I went into my bathroom and looked at my outfit. My hair was curl that hung across my shoulders. With a white muscle shirt some blue jeans. I had a white blazer on with my white strapped heels.
