*Marilyn's Point Of View *
I stop at the local gas station. One thing I have learned from Michael's and I situation is that we have to find some type of common ground. I havr to stop running every time things become difficult. I need to suck it up. I am no better then Michael. I take in a couple deep breaths. My mind is saying go home but my heart is saying go help him. I turn my ignition on and make my way to Michael's...
*Michael's Point Of View *
I'm such an idiot. I should have known she would be mad. I have lost her and every chance I had with her. Just when I'm walking up the stairs the doorbell rings. I sigh. I can't talk to anyone right now. I slowly walk over to the door. I turn the knob to open it. My eyes widen when the person reveals herself. "Marilyn? ", She looks down. "I'm sorry ", I move aside to let her in. She continues avoiding eye contact. "Wait why are you sorry? ", She finally looks up at me. "For running, I want to help you and your child", I scratch my head. "Wait let me configure this. You want to help my child? You want to help a child that is not yours? ", She seems to hesitate before nodding. "That child deserves it", I smile. "Thank-you ", She nods. I walk to her and hug her. "I know why you ran", I whispered in her ear. She slowly hugs me back. "I will make up for it with this child, I promise. I'm so sorry", I continued. She starts trembling. "Please don't cry, please ", I said stroking her curls. I know she is devastated that the very woman I cheated with is having something she sadly lost. Her grip tightens at my shirt. I know this isn't the time for these feelings, but I feel jubilated that she's in my arm's willingly again. "No matter what my heart is yours babygirl", I said breaking the hug to look at her. I wipe her tears with my thumb. "My heart is yours...", I whispered leaning into her face. She stares at me silently. Just when I'm centimeters away from her lips She backs away. "Michael, I-I have to go", I lean back. "Yeah... okay", I said blushing with embarrassment. She nods and turns towards the door. "Bye Michael...", "Bye babygirl ", She shakes her head. "Michael don't call me that please?", I nod. "Sorry... force of habit", She smiles and walks out...
*Marilyn's Point Of View*
I don't know how I always seem to find myself back at his feet. I know that with everyday I am allowing myself to find myself again. I want to live a life that doesn't revolve around Michael. Being that we have been married so long, it's hard realizing I sadly haven't really been able to live in a world without Michael. I knew I had to stop by Yuli's. I can't go to that neighborhood without seeing my girl. I just pulled into her driveway. I hope she's home. Jog up to her front door. K don't get in a knock before Ryan answers the door. "Oh hey Ryan! Is Yuli home?", He smiles and waves. "Uhh yeah I'm actually going out to get her some comfort food. She is having her moodswings again ", I giggle. The horror on his face is hjust too funny. "Oh lord, is it safe for me to go in?", He shrugs. "You tell me", I shake my head. "Well I'll take the risk", "Good luck, I better go now", He said jogging towards his car. "Alright thanks", He smiles one last time before disappearing into the car. He's a good man. I walk in and close the door behind me. "Yuli! ", I called walking through the front room. "In here!" She yelled back. "Where?", "In the dang living room! My fat ass can't walk anywhere else!", She snapped. I take in a deep breath before popping my head behind the wall of the dining room that lead to the living room. "Heey grumpy pants", I teased revealing myself. "Don't be a smart ass", She snapped again shifting in her rocking chair to glare at me. I laugh. "You are quite the Chihuahua", "One more insult and I'm kicking your ass I swear!", She barked trying to stand up. I hold my hands up in defeat. "Ok OK, I'm done", She's huffs. "So what brings you here?", I shrug. "Michael... ", She smirks. "Channing must not be doing his job, you are dirty...letting Michael clean up that pipe.", My eyes widen. "Yuli! Oh my God you're such a pervert. No one is doing any cleaning of any pipe! ", She giggles. "I was just joking! Calm down. You can't lie...you want him too", I shake my head. "I really don't. Michael has other things to worry about ", "Like....", I sigh and sit. "His baby", I whisper. Her eyes widen. "What?!?! Nooo, damn that's some shit... I would cut his crap off...", I giggle. "Trust me I wanted to, But I'm just going to support him....for the baby", She nods. "Wow, Jackson drama. Has he told his mother? ", I shrug. "God I hope he doesn't anytime soon with her condition she has... I don't think her heart would be able to take it", I nod. "Yeah it's saddening I know Jasmine is taking it hard. I actually have her stuff in the car", "Why? what's going on now?", I sigh again rubbing my temples. "Michael is having a hard time raising her...She's a teenager now, and needs a woman in her life", "I guess...You guys have a lot going on...wait shouldn't you be at work?", "I took off today", "And Channing? ", I look at her and gasp. "Shit! I forgot all about him!", Yuli covers her belly. "Watch what you say around my child! ", I smile. "I'm sorry, Look I gotta go. I know he's worried ", "Yeah just don't tell him you were with Michael ", I shake my head. "He trusts me", She rolls her eyes. "Just go! I still love ya!", I giggle. "Love ya too! Alright bye!", I grab my purse and jog out. Can't believe I forgot about him. I need some type of organization in my life...
