Her Keeper

Chapter 21

--Geovanni Parris--

"That should be everything, Unc'." I said as I wiped sweat from my forehead.

Uncle Jan had bought Julliet a really nice condo, not too far from his house and asked me to help him move some things into it with him.

Jules doesn't know about the condo yet, it's supposed to be her nineteenth birthday present.

"Thanks for the help, Geovanni." He patted my back.

"As always, Unc', it's nothing." We walked in silence to the front door for a bit, until I broke it. "How is she?" I asked, scratching the back of my head.

"You do know that you could just ask her yourself right?" He chuckled.

"I had my chance." I cleared my throat.

"Meaning?" He questioned.

"She came over to my place and I blew it." I admitted.

"You two are young. You'd grow out of it." He shook his head as he locked up. "What did she come for though?"

"To fix things and something about she thought it through." I shrugged. "You think she changed her mind about having a baby?" I questioned.

"To be honest, Geovanni, she's been very distant since you left." He shrugged. "She rekindled a friendship with an elementary school friend and they've been hanging out alot ever since, along with Skykar." He informed me.

Nodding, I tucked my lips.

"What about you, Geo, how have you been doing?" He asked as we got into my car.

"I'm a'ight." I sighed, while pulling off.

"If you want a kid, have one. If she wants to be with you, she'd forgive you." He suggested.

"I want kids with Julliet, Unc'."

"But she's made her path clear, Geovanni." He reminded me.

"And I'm hoping she'd change her mind." I sighed. "Julliet's the first and only person I've had unprotected sex with. And admitting this to you is weird, because you're her dad, but she's also the first person I went downtown on and she hasn't even done it for me. I don't even mind that. I just know that she's that one." I stated confidently.

"If kids think hearing about their parents sex lives is gross, it's way worse for parents. That was, yuck." I laughed at Uncle Jan's reaction. "So what's the plan?"

"Watchu mean?" I questioned.

"How do you plan on making this work for the both of you?" He asked.

"Uh, I'm planning to go back to school for a bit. Get that degree you want me to get." I said, earning a prideful smile from him. "If she doesn't change her mind by then, I'd have the time in which I start my business to pray that she does. Become the entrepreneur you see in me and have enough money to provide for the both of us, even if she decides a kid isn't really in the question." I admitted.

"You're willing to make the compromise?" He asked in awe.

"Yes sir." I nodded. "I love your daughter, man." I blushed. "She did something to me."

"Trust me, she loves you too."

-- Julliet Morrison--

I was in the most uncomfortable Property Law lecture ever. Not because of anyone or the lecture itself, but because my nipples were extra sensitive to the point where I was aware of every bit of my bra's material  which covered them.

It was the last ten minutes of the lecture and I was just trying to get through it without having to awkwardly rub my boobs in the class.

"I am so ready to leave." Skylar mumbled across from me.
