We drove through these big gates and up a driveway I looked out the window and gasped at the house.

"Babe who's house is this?"

I tore my eyes away from the house and looked at D.

"Ours."

"No it's not quit lying to me."

"I'm not baybeh this is our house."

D got out he walked around the passenger side he helped me out then he got the girls out Haze walked up to me.

"This is a nice house."

"I know right."

"Are y'all about to get this house?"

"Nope lil sis I already bought it."

"Damn big bro you did a good job."

"I know."

D walked up to the house holding the girls hands we followed behind him. D unlocked the door and opened it we stepped in and my mouth dropped at the sight.

"The house is unfurnished because I know you will want to furnish the house with the help of Haze."

"Yeah you're right about that."

"I know I am."

"Can we get a tour of the house."

"Yeah."

About 30 minutes later the tour have concluded and I have a lot of ideas on how I want to do each room. Now we're in the garage D turned on the light I looked at him.

"A Lamb truck?"

"Yes ma'am that Rari isn't going to fit the kids so I had to get you something that will."

"Babe this is nice."

"Go ahead and check it out," D handed me the keys I walked over to the truck I unlocked the doors and got in I started it up I laughed lightly when the radio turned on and it said Mrs. Wilson across it. I turned and looked at the seats seeing my initials but instead of my last name it had my soon to be last name D walked over to me.

"So do you like it?"

"Like is an understatement I love the truck thank you babe."

"You're welcome lil mama."

I got out of the truck Haze looked at me with a knowing look.

"Oh hell no I saw that look what are you two about to get into," D said as Haze walked over to the truck and opened the passenger door.

"Don't worry about all that."

I got in and closed the door me and Haze put on the seatbelts D opened the garage doors I put the gear in reverse and I backed out of the garage.

"Okay Ari where do you have me going?"

"To the mall I have to get D something."

"But it's about you though."

"Yeah I know but I have to let D know besides words that I appreciate him and everything that he have done for me today as far as the Lamb truck."

"You know you can't top that right?"

"It's not about that Haze."

"Okay."

"So what did Dave say that made your eyes go wide?"

"That I was next to get engaged and I wanted to know what he meant but he wouldn't tell me. Did D say anything to you?"

"You know that if Dave is going to surprise you and D knows D isn't going to tell me because I'm going to tell you."

"Mhmm you're right about that."

"Yep I'm so ready to have Dj."

"Yeah you're all belly."

"Right I'm so little with a big belly."

"Yep so have you two talked about the wedding on the way to the house."

"Mhmm no and yes."

"Explain the double answers."

"Okay so we don't have a set date but we do know that we want to get married later next year."

"Traditional or non-traditional?"

"You should already know non-traditional."

"Yeah I should've known."

"So Haze are you pregnant because I've noticed that you've gotten a lil thick."

Haze laughed.

"No I'm not pregnant Ari I thought I was a few days ago but it was just a scare."

We arrived to the mall I parked and looked at Haze I know she's feeling some type of way.

Hazel
I'm not going to lie a few days when I thought I was pregnant I was happy and was thinking of ways on how to tell Dave until I got it confirmed that I wasn't pregnant.

"Haze you okay?"

"Yeah why wouldn't I?"

I looked at Ari.

"Because I know my best friend and I know that besides being successful like you are another thing you want to be is a mom and that you had the opportunity before only for it to be snatched away from you."

"I hate that you can read me so well."

"I'm your best friend so I know you."

"Well you're right when I thought that I was I was so happy and excited I was thinking of ways to tell Dave but then it got confirmed that it was just a scare."

"Aww baby it'll happen in due time."

"Yeah you're right."

"Don't rush it it'll happen before you know it."

"No offense Ari but that's easy for you to say because you have kids already and you're pregnant being a successful business woman is all good and all but what happens to when I retire and don't have any kids and Kairi is grown and have her own career."

"Quit holding that hurt in from 5-6 years ago let it out Haze I know you're hurting."

"Ari leave it alone."

"Nope let it out you didn't cry when everything happened and haven't cried about what happened so let that shit out quit holding it in."

"I hate you," I said as the tears streamed down my face and my leg shook.

"No you don't you love me now bring it in."

I laughed slightly then I laid my head on Ari shoulder as I cried something that I haven't done about what happened to me 5-6 years ago.

After my crying session I got some tissues and wiped my face then I got my makeup wipes and removed my makeup. Me and Ari got out of her truck she locked her doors and we walked up to the mall entrance doors. We walked in and made our way over to the escalators we got on. I definitely gotta have a conversation with Dave to let him know where my head is at and how I'm feeling we always share with each other on how we feel and what we're thinking so this is something that I haven't told him but will tell him when we get home.
