She went to fucking Florida. "Justin you want to go to Florida" I asked as I looked at my phone. Clover didn't know I had her location so she can't just go to Florida and not tell me. "Yay! Ill go pack my bag" he said running to his room. I nodded and went to go pack my stuff. I texted my mom and told her I was taking a vacation to Florida. I checked Justin's bag and put them in the car. I packed him some snacks and grabbed his tablet. I made sure he was straight then got in the car. I got on the road and turned up my radio. My mind was battling back and forth. I didn't know if I was crazy or if I was in love or crazy in love.
I could feel my phone vibrate the whole time but I ignored it. I pulled over to get gas and check my phone. As I pumped gas I checked my phone.
Baby😍👸🏾💦- I'm sorry Destin😩
Momma👵🏾🤱🏾- what are you talking about Destin??
Rocky😒💯💚- wya?
Rocky😒💯💚- where is Clover?
Rocky😒💯💚- you going on a Vacation? With Clover?
Rocky😒💯💚- what's the move family?
Rocky😒💯💚- I want to be in my child's life. Tell Clover to stop playing. I'm not an angry bull.
Rocky😒💯💚- yo wya? You good
Momma👵🏾🤱🏾- where you going?
I responded to the messages.
To Rocky😒💯💚- I'm good Rock. I'm just taking a little break. I'll be back
To Momma👵🏾🤱🏾- I'm going to Florida don't trip.
I ignored Clover's message and hopped back on the road. I drove and drove. I looked back at Justin to see him sleeping. I smiled. I don't know what Rocky got going on but he needs to straighten up. Having a child is the most amazing thing in the world.
I finally pulled up to a hotel and pulled out my phone.
To Rocky😒💯💚- as far as you being in that child's life you need to get your life together. Pray about it and if you really want to be in her life it'll happen. Just don't try and force your way in. Show her you care first. Check up on her buy her small gifts. You have to gradually enter a child's life.
I checked into the hotel and took a sleeping Justin to the room. Then I went to go get the bags. It was 12 in the morning so I got in the bed with Justin and went to sleep.
I woke up to Justin jumping on the bed. "Justin chill out" I said. "It's time to get up daddy" he said as he kept jumping. "Justin I'm tired" I said. "Daddy I'm hungry" he said. "Ight go get ready man dang" I sighed. "I'm ready. I brushed my teeth and everything" he said. I sighed. Then he started singing. "My milkshake brings all the girls to yard. It's better than yours" "All the single ladies. All the single ladies. Hit my line up" "To the left to the left. All you crazy babies get in line to the left" "I got 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 shooters ready to gun you down. You is a mummy now" "Looooove. Looove. Love" "Don't play with me. Play with you daddy"
I finally got up and got ready. I put on my Jean shorts and polo shirt with my forces. "Dang why you trying to be like me daddy" Justin said. "Come on Boy" I said. We went downstairs to the free breakfast. We ate until Justin was full. "Let's go to the mall daddy" he said. "Ight Boy. Don't be trying to ball out either" I said as we walked to the car. We got in and drove to the closest mall. We walked around the mall and of course Justin wanted everything. "Daddy look" Justin said. "Nah man you ain't getting nothing else" I said looking at my phone. "Clover" he yelled. I looked up to see Clover walking with a pregnant lady that was pushing Loyalty. She looked at us and I saw her eyes light up. I smiled as she ran to us. She jumped in my arms and wrapped her legs around me. "Thank you" she said when I put her down. "For what" I asked as the pregnant girl walked over. "For caring enough to follow me" she said. "Of course baby girl. Y'all mean the world to me" I said as she picked up Justin. "Hey buddy. I missed you. Wait how did you know where I was" she asked as I picked up Loyalty. "I got your location girl. You can't get away from me" I laughed making them laugh.
"Destin this is Heavenly my new friend. Lele this is Destin" Clover said. "I'm Clover's boyfriend. Do you have a boyfriend" I asked. "He's in jail" she said rubbing her belly. "Well if you need anything let me know" I said. Knowing Clover she befriended a girl that is in a tough situation. "Thank you" she said. "Y'all hungry" I asked. The girl looked at Clover. "Let's go eat" I said walking towards the food court. We got some food and sat at a table.
"So Lele do you live alone" I asked. "Well at the moment I do but I don't know how long that's going to last. I don't have a job to pay bills. My boyfriend was supposed to take care of us but he got locked up. I can't go live with my mom so I don't know" she said as she started crying. "Im sure we can help you out. Stay calm. You seem like good people. I got you. What did your boyfriend do for a living" I asked. "He was a drug dealer" she said. "And his homies ain't helping you out" Clover asked. "Ok honestly I'm like a side chick that got pregnant. They all focusing on his main fiancé" she said crying again. "Well fuck him sweetheart. You is a bad bitch you don't need him. We can find you another man" I said. "Hell you don't need a man be a bad bitch with your baby and be good. When he get out put his ass on child support" Clover said. She laughed at us. "Once you're stable and on your own feet you will understand" I said as I gathered our trash.
"What hotel you in" Clover asked me. "The sane one y'all in" I said. "How long y'all got it for" she asked. "Til tomorrow" I said. "You going back home" she asked. "No my cousins live here" I said. "I start work tomorrow. I got them to transfer me out here" she said. "You guys want to come to my house" Lele asked. "Sure" I said.
