             CHERYL's POINT OF VIEW

"Cheryl..." Shemar said as he woke me up. I looked up at him. "Yes?" I said as I woke up. "Get up." He then told me. "Why?" I asked him. "Please..." He then said. "Okay..." I said as I then got out of bed and stood up. "There's some stuff in the bathroom you can freshen up with. Brand new. Meet me downstairs." He then said as he left out. "Alright." I said as I nodded.

I wonder why he wanted me to get up. Plus, it's so early and I didn't even want to go back home. Even though, I did miss Tony. Kinda a lot...

After I freshened up and more- I started to make my way downstairs. As I walked downstairs, I saw Tony standing there looking down with his hands in his pockets. Shemar tapped him and Tony then looked up at me. 

"I called him because you two need to figure this out. I know that you're still in love with Tony and you're never going to fall out of love with him. He's given you two children and I know that the two of you want this to work out. Both of you....stop acting like this. Talk." Shemar said as he then left the room.

I walked over towards him and looked at him. "Cheryl, I'm so sorry baby. I just-..." He said but I cut him off as I just gave him a hug. "I'm sorry too. I've done some horrible things and you have too. Some things I don't even want to say because I'm so upset with myself about them. I just want us back. Before we ever messed up...the bond that we use to have." I said as I continued to hug him. "I do too and you deserve a better man than me. I was so upset when it came to you and Shemar being friends but...it was just my low self confidence when it came to being your husband. I've let you down so many times and I try and try...I feel like I'm not getting better." Tony said as we both released from the hug. "You are getting better. I just-....I made you feel that way and I apologize for doing that. I shouldn't have. Also, I know that Cai can see it. Maybe she's not around when anything goes down but I know that she can still feel it." I explained to him as I started to cry. "You're right. We need to do better. Baby, I can't lose you. We have another baby on the way and...I need my family. We've both said things and I can't let that break us. We both can't. Just forgive me already. Don't hold nothing against me because you don't understand how hard that is for me. It's hard for me to do anything because I want to grow." He said as he wiped my tears. I nodded and put my head against his chest. "I'm sorry." I said. "I'm sorry too. Just come home." Tony said as he held me.

As Tony went back home, I stayed to talk to Shemar for a moment.

"Thank you..." I said as I looked at him. "You're welcome. It was hard for me to do but...I had to realize that, you're not mines. You're not and yes, I wish you were but you're not. Plus, I saw in your eyes last night that you were sad and hurt. I just wanted to make you happier and as many times as you try to deny it- I know that you love that man. I also just want to be your best friend again. Just best friends." Shemar said as he had his hands in his pockets. I then went over to give him a hug. He hugged me tightly. "Now, go home." He said as we let go. I smiled a small smile and left.
