The Nightmare Outside My Window

T H I R T Y - S E V E N

{ Harlow }

I pace back and forth in my bedroom thinking about what the detectives said. Michael might have something to do it. I sat on the bed rubbing my stomach looking at myself in the mirror. I sigh laying down in bed holding my stomach. Baby boy need to get out of me.

After laying down for an hour, I finally got up and went to kitchen to get something to drink. I fixed some tea till I heard the door bell ring. I walk to the door with my tea in my hand. I open the door seeing Michael smiling at me.

"Hey baby"he walked in the house. "What you drinking?"

"Tea"I said.

"Tea? Better be tea and not wine"he sat down on the couch turning the tv on.

"Why you over here?"I ask.

"Harlow. This my damn house. I bought the mother fucker!!" He yelled. "Why the fuck would you say some shit like that?"

"Cause...."

"Cause what!!"

"Mike stop yelling!!!"I yelled back. "Some detectives came over earlier looking for you"

"Detectives? For what?"he ask chuckling.

"They think you have something to do with Cherie death. Her friends pointed you out"I said.

"Wow"he smiled. "Do you think I have something to with it?"

"Well, do you?"I ask. "Just tell me the truth"

"No"he said bluntly then turn the channel. "Go to sleep Harlow"

"Excuse you"I looked at him from the kitchen.

"You heard what fuck I said. Go to sleep!"

Something really wrong with him. He haven't act this way towards me. Like I never saw this side of him. Well, at the baby shower I did.

I sigh heavily and walk to the room so I can just sleep and forget about what he said. I don't have time for Michael right now.
