Recovery (book 1)

Chapter 13

Denzel pov
We sat on the bed on opposite sides backs turned against eachother. "What did I do to you." I asked. "Come on Denzel don't do that , you and I both know this isn't working." She said. "So we hit a rough patch and you wanna leave? Great just like everyone else in my life." I got up to leave. "What about our babygirl?" I asked. "What baby?" She asked. "Janet quit playing with me." I stepped closer to her. She took a deep breath. "Denzel I had a abortion." She put her head down. I balled me fist up as tear came into my eyes. It took all of me not to go off. "When?" I asked stepping closer . "B-before I came home after seeing Joseph." She stepped back . "Why does it matter ! You have your first born !" She yelled. I looked at her. "So this is about Ava? You killed my kid over a child that may not even be mines? And more importantly that was before you?"!i yelled at her. "Keep you voice down" she said. "What you don't want your midget ass boyfriend to hear me?" I spat. I looked at her and took a breath. " maybe it was for the better now I don't have to deal with your pathetic desperate ass, if it's not about work don't contact me." I said as I walked out the room.

Janet's pov

I looked at the door after he walked out. I went down stairs in the kitchen to see my whole family still there. " I hope you all are happy." I said getting a water out the fridge. "You'll see the good come out of it in the long run." Jermaine said with Latoya agreeing. I turned to Latoya. "Bitch just because i don't wanna be like you ms.im 89 and still a virgin head ass and haven't dated anyone since the 70's doesn't mean I wanna die with cobwebs on my coochie okay? And Jermaine you really wanna talk about desperate when your kids are calling their siblings cousin also?" I said looking at them. They had no response. " I don't think so, but thanks for ruin the little bit of happiness I had left." I said while walking out. I went into my moms bed room and into her bathroom. I looked in her medicine cabinet. And took out two sleeping pills. That's when every bad thing everyone said to be today started going through my head . Especially Denzel's. I looked at the bottle and dumped out more. I took them all and layed on Joseph side of the bed. I just wanted the voices to stop.

Denzel pov
I pulled up to shontell house debating if i should go inside. I had drunk a half of bottle and I could feel me getting tipsy. I walked in her house and she was sitting on her couch. Before she could protest I put my lips on her. She kissed back. I removed her shirt and when I went to unclip her bra my phone rung . I declined it and kept going but they kept calling. I finally gave in and answered it was Alex. She was panicking. She said Janet was in the hospital and I need to get there fast. Instantly my heart dropped I felt like shit. It seemed like right when she said it I sobered up. I ran out of Shontell house and went to the hospital. She had to be okay . She just had to be.
