"August put it back."

We were supposed to be grocery shopping, but now August was just picking up uneccessary shit.

"We don't need whip cream August!" I said as he threw it in the buggy.

"Baybeh.. yes we do." He smiled at me and began flicking his tongue. I rolled my eyes and walked off, leaving him standing there.

As I was turning the corner, I ran into this girl with a buggy.

"I'm sorry .. I was texting." She said still looking down at her phone. Once she looked up at me, her eyes got big.

"I know you."

I looked at her confused. "Excuse me?"

"I mean.. well I don't know you but dad has told me a lot about you."

"Dad??"

Everything that has happened was hitting me all at once and I was becoming more confused by the moment , like I didn't understand anything she was saying at all.

"Dad?"

"Yeah.." Luke walked over to her and I shook my head..

Right .. dad.

"So.." I cleared my throat. "I have siblings?"

He slowly nodded his head. "younger sister and older brother.."

I shook my head.. "So I was just the one y'all decided not to keep huh?"

I felt the burning sensation in the back of my throat and I knew then that the tears would be falling soon.

"Jai.. it's not like that.."

"THEN WHAT IS IT LIKE THEN?"

He opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out.

"EXACTLY!" I roughly grabbed my buggy and marched away in search for August.

When I found him he was over by the produce talking to Keem and hiding i'm assuming. I was fixing to ask why the hell Keem was here and why where they talking behind the produce aisle but honestly, I didn't even want to know. I wiped my face and tried to look perfectly fine before walking over because I didn't want August to think anything was wrong.

"What's wrong baby?"

I smiled. "Nothing love." I kissed his lips. "Are you done?"

He stared at me a little longer trying to read my face before saying he was done shopping.

We checked out and I went and sat in the car while August and Keem were putting up the groceries.

My stomach was cramping extremely bad and I just wanted to lay up and eat ice cream all day. I always tried to get through illnesses and pain with no medication, but period cramps made me want to take a whole bottle of ibuprofen and then some.

I laid across the seat and put my head down.

"You sure you okay ma'?" August asked as he got into the backseat with me.

"I'm cramping." I sat up and scooted closer towards him, laying my head on his lap. This cannot be life.

Once we made it home, Aug and I put the groceries up and I went to take a really hot bath and relax. My back was hurting and my boobs were tender. Another reason why I hated having my damn period. I also couldn't stop thinking about the run in I had in the grocery store .
