A month later....
~Chelly~
I'm 8 months now. Jaylin is a really busy baby. All he does it kick, kick, and kick. Jay does everything in his power to make sure I'm happy. But what he fail to realize that all this work he doing is messing up our relationship. I ask can we go out or do something together. His reply is he has to work. Him and work seem like their in a relationship then him and I.
I try to tell me to relax and take a break but he doesn't listen to me. But I got a trick for that ass. We recently moved into another apartment but a three bedroom. This apartment is more spacious and just right for the three of us.
"Baby where you at?" I yelled out.
"I'm fixing up the baby room." see what I mean. He been working nonstop on the room. But today I'm making him relax if it's the last thing I do. I walk into the baby room.
"Get out." I simply said.
"I can't I need to finish this before the baby come and you know it."
"Jayceon Malik Wright if you don't get the fuck out this room I swear to the good Lord up above I'll drag your ass out this room."
"Baby just go back in the room and rest and let me handle this."
"Oh so you think it's a joke?" I walked over to him and he looked at me.
"I'll give you two seconds before my foot is so far up your ass you won't be able to walk again. Leave this room! NOW!" I snapped. I'm sick of this shit honestly.
"Okay baby just calm down."
"If you stop working yourself so hard maybe I wouldn't have to snap on you. I get that you always going to be there and I thank you for that but you need a break. All you ever do is work, work, and work but never spend time with me. I wake up you working. I go to sleep you working. When was the last time we went out and had fun or we just lazied around the house watching movies. You don't even have friends for Christ sake. But all this work is messing up our relationship and you can't even see it." I shake my head wiping my tears. He tries to walk toward me but I put my hand up and walk out the room. I can't deal with this anymore.
~Jay~
I was in the baby room fixing up some things. I wanted to be prepared for Jaylin when he came. I've been working hard to the point I picked up a second job on the weekends.
When Chelly came in here going off I just told her to just rest and let me do this.
"If you stop working yourself so hard maybe I wouldn't have to snap on you. I get that you always going to be there and I thank you for that but you need a break. All you ever do is work, work, and work but never spend time with me. I wake up you working. I go to sleep you working. When was the last time we went out and had fun or we just lazied around the house watching movies. You don't even have friends for Christ sake. But all this work is messing up our relationship and you can't even see it." I tried to walk to her but she put her hand up. She was crying because of me. She wiped her tears and left out the room. How could I be so stupid to not see this. Chelly's right. I just need to make it up to her.
I walk out the baby room heading into our room but I don't see her in there. She couldn't have left because I didn't here the door. I walk into the bathroom. Nothing. The kitchen. Nothing. The living room. Nothing.
I sighed. She left and I didn't even hear her leave. I rush outside to see her car gone. I ran back upstairs. I grabbed my phone and keys.
I've been looking for her for over two hours and still no sign of her. I called our parents and grandparents but they haven't seen or heard for her. She not even answering her phone.
Where the fuck could she have gone that fast. I had to go to my parents house. I know I'm not going to hear the last of this.
I pull up and see everyone cars outside. I sighed. I cut the car off and got out. Before I could knock I was pulled into the house by my dad.
"What the hell you mean you can't find her? She 8 months pregnant and out there! What did you do?!" he yelled at me. Everyone was just shaking their heads. I held my head down.
"Your father asked you a question." nana said.
"Well tonight I was fixing up the baby room when Chelly walked in telling me that I needed to get out and relax and take a break. I told her to just go rest and let me finish this. But she snapped on me about how I'm always working and not even paying attention to our relationship. That I'm putting work before her and then she left and I don't know where she is." I said. They all just looked at me.
"Can you be that stupid. We all know how much you love Michelle and our grandson. But we told you as well as Chell that you need to take a break but you being hard headed didn't listen. We all warned you for a reason. You might not have seen it but we all did. Everytime you leave for work or working Chelly calls us crying and stressing because she thinks work is more important to you then she is. Have you even sat down all realized or paid attention to the signs?" I shook my head no.
"Exactly now my baby is out there God knows where. You need to find her and fix this shit and I mean right fucking now. Do you understand me?" nana said
"Yes ma'am." I did lowly.
"I can't fucking hear you."
"Yes ma'am." I said louder.
"Now get the hell out and find her or so help me God I'll beat you so bad you will be in a coma."
"Yes ma'am." I walked out the house. I jumped in my car. I drove around the city for another three hours and still no sight of her.
I called and called no answer. It was going on 3 in the morning when I pulled up into our parking lot.
I thanked God because Chelly car was back. I rushed out the car and ran upstairs.
"Chelly!" I yelled walking into the house. She was sitting in the kitchen drinking. I rushed over to her.
"Baby please I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to put work before you or our relationship. I love you so much. I just want us to not have to worry or want for anything. I never meant to hurt you or make you cry. I'm sorry please forgive me." I was on my knees in front of her crying with my hands around her. She looked down at me. She wiped my tears.
"Listen to me Jayceon I'll love you regardless but I just felt like I was in this relationship by myself. All I'm asking for is that you make time for us. What if I had our son and you were to busy working then what? Would you have us leave you without even a warning? What would you have done if I said it's either your work or us? What would you truly do?" I hear where she was coming from. I really managed to fuck up something I've really worked hard for.
"Baby I'll give it all up if it means you'll stay and never leave me again. I didn't know what to do without you not being here. Both our parents and grandparents were ready to whoop my ass. My dad even jacked me up and nana looked like she was ready to tare my ass up." I said she laughed a little.
"I'm sorry I didn't notice what I was doing. Do you forgive me?" I really hope she do.
"Yes I forgive you this is the only time. If it happens again. My child and I are leaving. You need to find a way that we can spend time together."
"I am. I promise. I'll make it up to you." I kissed her. "I love you."
"I love you too." Before we went to bed I had to call my parents to let them know I found her or that would've been my ass in a silver platter.
I vowed to myself and Michelle that I'll never let work come between us again. I love her and my son to much to lose them.
