Queen [A$AP Mob]

Chapter 25

Tahja

I really didn't want to see Darold right now. He knew about Monique and didn't say anything. The trust I have for people is starting to go away.

I walked up the steps to his apartment. I dragged my feet dreading what would happened when I confronted him. When I'm angry at a loved one, I usually get sad and sluggish.

I've been like that my entire life. I slowly opened the door to see him sitting in the living room. His back was turned towards me so he didn't see me. He was on the phone with someone. 

"I still want a paternity test. If I am the father I'll be a man and take care of what's mine"

".................."

"I'm not telling Tahja until I get the paternity test results"

".................."

"Yeah aight, bye", he said as he hung up the phone.

I slammed the door closed. Let the show begin. He looked at me with a frightened look.

"Oh hey baby I-"

"Shut the fuck up. How dare you sit there and call me baby? I know about Monique and your child. I don't know what's worse, you getting my bestfriend pregnant or you not saying anything! You had me walking around here looking dumb as hell thinking we're just picture perfect! Do you know what it feels like to have another nigga tell you about your nigga?!", I yelled.

Before he could answer I put my hand up, instantly shutting down whatever he was gonna say.

"I love you I do, but I don't know if I can do this. But for now don't call or text me. I need my space from you", I said as I walked to his room.

I gathered my things as he rushed in behind me trying to explain. I don't care if it was before we were together. If I would have known they messed around, I never would have "talked" to him.

"Tahja baby I'm sorry I didn't tell you, but I knew you would hate Monique and I babe. I never meant to hurt you, hell I never thought I would get you. You're my dream girl Tahj. Baby please don't do this.", he pleaded.

I kept a poker face, but I was really dying inside. I wanted to ball my eyes out, but I couldn't do that. I'm a big girl and like Fergie said. Big girls don't cry.

I grabbed my belongings and rushed outside. I ran 2 blocks before I stopped. I'm so glad I kept my body in shape after track season. I kept walking until I saw city life. I got a cab and took my sad ass home.

Isis

I was in Tahja's room on Skype with Maya. I missed my baby like crazy. I knew one day I would have to tell everyone about her.....just not today. We have bigger things to worry about, like Tahiry.

She was supposed to be at a friend's but she never showed up. I heard the front door closed,but I brushed it off as nothing. It was probably my aunt.

"Bye Mommy I wuv yew", said Maya as she blew me a kiss.

"Mommy loves you too baby. Bye", I said before blowing a kiss and ending the call.

"Mommy?", someone questioned standing at the door. I quickly looked over and saw Tahja sitting there with a confused look on her face.

"Huh?", I said trying to play dumb.

She rolled her eyes.

"Why didn't you tell me you had a baby Isis?", She asked as she threw her bag down on the floor.

I sighed.

"No one knows about her except for my mom and godmom. I wasn't really proud of how she happened. I didn't want to be judged", I said truthfully.

She nodded her head.

"What do you mean you went proud of how she happened?", she asked.

"Ummm.... her father was.....kind of in a  relationship with someone else when we slept together", I said with my head down.

"Oh well, does he help take care of her? What's her name by the way ?", she asked curiously.

"Well he doesn't know about her. I left as soon as I found out I was pregnant. Her name is Maya", I said.

She furrowed her eyes together.

"Wait.....you got pregnant while you were down here? ", she asked confused.

I nodded my head and sighed.

"Ooh do I know him?", she asked while propping  her head up on her fists.

I thought about it. What she doesn't know won't hurt her right?

"Nah, he was an older guy I met", I said. Technically I was telling the truth. Messiah was an older guy I met.

Tahja nodded and rolled off the bed.

"Wait aren't you supposed to be with your man?", I asked her while sitting my laptop on her dresser.

Her eyes got sad and cloudy.

"You won't believe what I found out today ", she said while putting her hair up.

I turned towards her giving her my undivided attention.

"So Monique is pregnant with Darold's baby. They messed around like a month before me and him got together, but nobody said shit.", she said angrily.

My eyebrows rose in surprise.

"Oh my gosh, how did you find out?", I asked.

"Girl Messiah asked me to breakfast this morning and he told me.", she said while shaking her head.

"How do you know if he's lying?", I asked. Messiah will do anything to take someone's happiness.

"I always know when he's lying. That's how I knew he cheated on me when we were dating. And I confronted Darold about it and he was looking salty as fuck", she said while sitting next to me.

"Damn that's fucked up ", I said. At least I wasn't the only one who did something wrong. She couldn't hate us all....right?

"Yeah, but that proves blood is thicker than water. I know you would never pull that slick shit on me Icey ", she said.

I gave her a light smile. I feel guilty as fuck.
