Aaliyah POV
I slithered behind the door crying hysterically. I wanted to forgive him and let him be apart of his daughters' life but I am still upset with him.
After a while I stop crying and realised that I could no longer hear anything on the other side of the door. I got up slowly being carefully not to hurt myself, I opened the door slightly peeking to see if he was still there. I didn't see him so I walked out into the living room. There he was knocked out on the sofa sleeping. I starred at him for a moment before I sat down at the end of the sofa by his feet.
I smiled at the fact that he took off his shoes before laying down. He knew how much I hated when he did th
at.Anton's POV
I woke up to her smiling at my foot. I looked at her strangely before sitting up. She looked up as the sofa budged. Her eyes were so red and her hair so messy, but all I could think off was how beautiful she looked. We stared at each other for a few seconds before she begin to speak.
"Um we're having a girl and she is due January 5th . She said looking away from me.
"New baby girl for the new years". I said thinking about my baby girl Antonia.
She nodged her head and started to rub her belly.We sat there in slience for another few seconds before I asked.
"Have you gotten everything for her?"I said turning forward on the sofa.
"I just need a car seat and some more clothes". She said not looking at me and trying to get up. I reached out my hand for her to hold as she got up. She hesitated before letting me help her.
I walked behind her as she headed to kitchen opening the fridge.
"You wanna go look for a car seat today....I'm off...we can go together." I said as I leaned on the counter and watch her get some water.
"That's fine.....I'll go get one another day". She said.
"Aaliyah...it makes more sense if we get everything together now...in case she comes early....January is not far from here". I said directly to her as she stood beside the fridge.
"Listen I'll get them when I get them okay" she said starting up an attitude.
"Please don't start--". I began to say before she stopped me.
"Please don't start what...why you don't you just leave and stop pretending that you care about this baby". She shouted.
I got angry fast at her words. "What the fuck you mean pretend Aaliyah". I care about my child". I shouted back at her.
"Ohh you care now! Where the fuck were you 8 months ago. She shouted back.
"I was--I started to say as she cut me off.
"You know where you were?. You was somewhere believing Anthony and his stupid ass that's what.
"Aaliyah". I said as she cut me off again.
"No don't Aaliyah me. Regardless of how you felt or who you believed..as long as we been together...you didn't even care to call or check on me . How the fuck you think that made me feel. I went through everything alone..." she said as she starts to get emotional.
"Aaliyah...I didn't know you were pregnant". I said calming down because I could see she was getting upset.
"It doesn't matter....you still should of called. I did nothing wrong...and you won't believe me for nothing... I have had the worst pregnancy ever crying everyday because I have no one". She said as tears feel down her face.
I stared at her with nothing left to say but "I'm sorry".
She replied "just leave", as she walked out of the kitchen into the room.
Seeing how upset she was i did as she said.
Anton's POV
I drove home thinking about everything that has happened between me and Li. Thought about our nights together, our good times and bad times. I wish things would go back to they way they were and we could be on one accord about the baby.
When I got home, I went straight upstairs and sank into my bed. The thoughts in my head where heavy, I thought about her and me and how things would be if that shit didn't go down with Anthony. I laid there for a while deep in my thoughts as a text came up on my phone.
"For the sake of my child please stay away from me".
I didn't even get upset. I kinda feel where she coming from but I don't believe her over Anthony. She cheated on me before so I just can't believe anything she says anymore.
I replied to her tho"Do you honestly feel that our daughter deserve to grow up without a father"
Aayliah- "she will be fine"
Me-"is that what you want for our child"
Aayliah-"yes that's what I want for my child"
Me-"I don't care what you say I'm gonna be in her life even if I gotta go to court. I will be a father to my daughter".
After I sent that she didn't reply.
Aaliyah POV
After a while I came out of the room as the house became quiet. I peeked through the door to make sure that he was gone. I decided to text him and let him no that I really don't want him around me and my child.We went back and forth for a bit, ending with him threatening to carry me to court. But I didn't even reply.
I honestly don't wanna keep her away from him. I know how hurt he was when Antonia died, but I just can't. He hurt me when he choose Anthony's side over mine. He treated me like nothing and didn't even care to call or check on me. He totally turned his back on me.
Anton's POVI got up in the middle of the night as I heard a loud noise outside my house in the backyard. I looked through the window but I didn't see anything so I got my shot gun and went to check what was happening. I walked outside but I didn't see anything or anyone. I went back upstairs and pulled up my cameras that I have around the house. I reminded the cameras and It was just a branch of the neighbors tree that feel on the deck outside.
Just through boredom, because I was already awake ,I keep rewinding the cameras. As I rewinded the cameras I switched to the inside cameras to see if there was any footage of Aaliyah. In the house I only had cameras by the front door and the stairs to catch faces if any one was to break in but they expanded to the kitchen and the living room. I sat there watching us making love one day before I went to work. It all made me miss her even more. I mean I am upset of what she did but you can't help who you love. I keep watching, from her cleaning to her cooking. I came across a clip of her and Anthony in the kitchen. I fast forwarded the clip to see the start from he enter the house to see what exactly happen. I watched and watched as my heart started
to race faster and faster, my chest tighten at what I just saw.Like and comment for another update!!!!
