It's been 3 weeks since i've heard from August. I was starting to think it was over officially. I was 13 weeks pregnant and he hasn't called or checked up on me once. I was more than financially stable to take care of my kids. I didn't need his help, I just needed to get over him.
It was morning time so I forced myself to get up out of bed and get showered and ready for the day. My bestfriend was coming over to help me with some projects for work since she worked for my company.
I got dressed in a basic outfit. A white top with some ripped fashionova jeans with my white fenty slides. I started my wardrobe over since I was starting to get to big for my clothes. You could see my baby bump more clear now but it was still small.
I was starting to believe it was a boy because I was doing and experiencing the same stuff when I was pregnant with Kyrie.
I heard a knock at the door so i opened it assuming it was my bestfriend but was wrong.
It was august.
He stormed in the house with his bags looking like he hasn't slept in days. He looked terrible.
"Ima give yo ass ONE more fucking chance and if you fuck it up i'm out. You hear me?" He says shaking.
"Yes. I'm sorry I hurt you Aug-" I say before getting cut off.
"Yea yea, save allat bullshit for the birds." He says.
As august was unpacking his bags I went upstairs to talk to him.
"Hey, how have you been?" I say plopping down on the bed.
"Fine." He say dryly.
"Where have you been staying?" I ask knowing he didn't want to speak to me right now.
"Hotel." He says never making eye contact with me.
"August please stop with all these one word answers. I'm sorry okay? What else do you want me to do?" I state. I wanted everything to be the same as I was before but I know it will never be like that again.
"You cheated on me while pregnant with my child. What the fuck you mean? You lucky i'm ever here right now. I should've packed all my shit up and lived my life until my kid got here. But i love your ass way too much to ever leave you. So ima need some time before we can make this right again." He says storming downstairs still not making eye contact with me.
He hasn't looked me in the eyes ever since i told him. I know he's hurt.
Later that day my bestfriend finally came to the house. We worked on designs for my company and we exchanged ideas. It was cool working with my bestfriend. After we finish, she walks me over to the bar that we have in our house and pours herself a drink.
August happens to be over here too drinking hennessy.
"Apple juice for me." I say chuckling.
"So um, August how you been?" She says asking august while he sips his drink. He wasn't drunk or anything, he was just relaxing.
"I'm fine, stop asking me that shit." He says rolling his eyes.
"Unt- uh. Ian Leah, ian did shit to you so don't catch an attitude with me little boy." Duffey says crossing her arms over her chest which makes me laugh. This is how she was. She always spoke her mind.
"Alright bruh ian got time for this. I'll be upstairs if you need me." He says giving me a kiss on the forehead which takes me by surprise.
My pregnancy hormones start to kick in because the tears come down.
"Sorry, that's the first time he kissed me since.. you know." I say fanning my tears away.
I think we're getting somewhere.
As the day came to an end, Duffey finally left very drunk and she took an uber home. We bonded and laughed and talked mostly about the baby.
I walked into my bedroom to spot august laying down without a shirt. Just tommy boxers.
I walked to my dresser drawers and put on some booty pajama shorts and a sports bra revealing my little bump.
I laid beside him place my head in the creak of his neck. He rubbed our baby with his hand.
"I love you and I know this is going to take some time. I understand. I'll wait years for you baby." I say whispering in his ear causing him to put his phone down and kiss me goodnight.
Still with no words.
