Later That Day..
▪ | Erica | ▪
I knocked on the door and waited patiently. Seconds later, the door flew open and there was Lee, standing on the other side looking beautiful.
She was wearing a nice yellow floral crop top which brought out her beautiful skin tone, some denim shorts, brown sandles, some accessories, and her naturally curly hair was put into a neat bun. Her make up and everything was also done nicely and she smelled good.
"Are you going to just stand there and stare or are we going to leave?" She asked snapping me out my thoughts and causing us to both laugh.
"My bad. You look very beautiful today," I complimented.
Lee blushed. "Thank you so much and you look good as well. I like your shirt." I grinned thanking her.

"So, where are we going?"
"Well .. I wanted to do something fun, but then again, I wanted to do something romantic. I couldn't choose so your just going to have to find out when we get there." She bit the side of her cheek, I noticed nodding.
So today I am taking Lee to the mall to get whatever she wants. Then, we're going to go walk around the city. Almost like the French Quarter in New Orleans you know?
Oh!
Did I mention that Lee's birthday was next week?
Yes, her birthday is next week. She'll be 37 years old like me. I want to spoil her before so that when the day comes, we'll be back together and we'll be able to enjoy her birthday.

"Next Friday is a very special day did you know?" She asked me looking at me and I smiled looking over at her.
"Yuup, it's your 37th birthday!" I said loudly and she laughed.
"37 .. " She said. "Erica you know we're close to 40!" She exlciamed holding my hand and locking out fingers.
"That's okay. Nothing gonna stop us what so ever from becoming what we was." I said pulling off from the highway.
"What were we Brown?"
"The best couple duh." I said in a duh voice and she smacked her lips smacking my arm.
"You need to go over there and worry about Jessica. I seen the pictures.." She said getting on her phone. I glanced over at her and looked away.
Dammit. I knew she was going to see some shit on the media. Last thing I want her to see though is Paris and I.
My phone dinged.
"Hey, can you check that for me?"
She nodded reaching over for my phone.

I grabbed Erica's phone seeing she had a message from Cassidy
Cassidy 😒: " Lucky woman Erica! The appointment moved to tomorrow morning because the doc or whatever isn't feeling good today so. I'll text you further details later. "
I frowned a little reading the message a few more times.
What is she talking about?
An appointment for what?
Doctor?
Something ain't right.

"Erica what is Cassidy talking about some appointment being moved to tomorrow?"
She looked at me quickly then grabbed the phone out my hand.
"What's going on?" I asked her.
She shook her head. "N-Nothing. Just don't worry bout it alright?"
I looked out the window staying quiet for a moment.
I really don't want to keep this on my mind to what the message really meaning because I know it doesn't mean something with Ava. I have the feeling that it's more than that.
I really want to ask her about it, but I don't want to make her upset.
I felt Erica touch my leg causing me to snap out my thoughts.
"You okay?" I nodded lying and looked back at the window. "Hey, its nothing. I promise.." She said and grabbed my chin making our lips connect. I grinned a little then looked away.
I want to take her word, but something's not allowing me to.
▪ | Erica | ▪
I knew I should've checked my phone myself!
Fuck!
Now I'm raeally hoping she doesn't find out about Paris possibly being "my" daughter.
I know this shit is bothering her. That's why I'm going to do whatever it takes just so she won't find out.
I hated to lie to her, but I don't want to her anything. Specially if Paris not mine..
