Nicolas Pov
These past few years have been tough. We've been co parenting and not talking to eachother for three months. I did wrong by leaving her for three days , but I didn't know how to be a father and I was afraid. Once I got home that night, my stuff was on the stairs and she was sitting on the couch holding the twins.
Flashhhhbackkk
I walked into the house and sighed. I placed my small duffel bag down and looked at Destiny. She was holding the twins and watching tv. I walked over to her and tried to kiss her but she turned her head and pointed to the stairs. All my stuff were on the stairs nicely packed.
"Baby why my stuff on the stairs?"
"You left me the day after I had the twins to run away from your problems without calling me texting me seeing if I was okay, you just left. Do you know how much crying I did. Get out!"
"Really Destiny. I told you I'm sorry."
"Sorry don't cut it Dominick. You had a whole responsibility. Two of them!"
I came back to reality and saw Nj and Nyla sound asleep. The doorbell rung , and I opened it. Standing there was Destiny and Malachi.
"Go head chai tell him!"
"Dad, I got kicked off the football team!"
"For what!!!"
"Fighting!"
"Malachi!"
"It's your fault Nicolas !"
"How when you were The Who told me to leave that night!"
"You were being selfish Nicolas and you know it. If you would've manned up to be a father to the twins that night you wouldn't be by yourself living in this apartment co parenting!"
"Stoppppp! I'm sick of this! Y'all haven't talked in almost two years ! That's not co parenting! Momma drop it. He did wrong. He gets it. Don't you see he been trying! Do you see This apartment! He don't belong here momma and you know it ! Daddy, you should've been there. Momma cried every night for those three days because you wasn't by her side! Open up ya eyes. Can't you see none of your kids are happy especially me being the oldest."
We both looked at him and sighed. He looked at us and shook his head.
"Momma, Im not staying here so I'll be in the car."
With that he left and it was just me and her.
"Destiny, I'm sorry for not being there. I'm sorry for not manning up. I'm sorry for not being by your side. I just wanna do better with us. But if you won't allow me how do expect things to be better."
"Ok Nicolas I'll give you a chance. I'm done resisting! Shoot your shot!"
With that she left. The twins were still sleeping surprisingly so I fell asleep too.
