This thing we call love (ONIKAFAREE)

chapter 52: Us.

(MORNING, NICKI'S POV)

When I woke up, I went downstairs. Safaree was asleep on the couch. "Wake up before Makalah sees you." I say. Makalah has no idea what's going on. At least I don't think she does.

He opened his eyes slowly and got up. "Mommy! Daddy!" Makalah yells and comes downstairs, just in time. "Yes?"

"Good Morning!" She smiled. "Good Morning! Go get ready for school, okay?"

"Okay!"

"Well...I guess I'm gonna....take her to school....anyhting to get out of this house..." Safaree says. I rolled my eyes. "Please." I mumble.

I went upstairs and got Alex out of his crib. "Hungry!" He yelled and tried to get down from my arms. I let him down and he grabbed my hand. We went downstairs and into the kitchen.

I put him in his highchair and he banged on the little plastic table. "I got it.." Safaree says, taking the cereal box from me. "Thanks." I went upstairs, woke up the twins and brought them down stairs.

I fed them, and then set them down on the living room floor to play. I made Safaree watch them so I could help Makalah get ready for school. I braided Makalah's hair and she brushed her teeth. Then she got dressed and Safaree and her went outside.

"Okay have a good day!" I say, kissing her cheek. "Love you!" She hugged me and took Safaree's hand. I watched them drive off.

I was playing with the twins and Alex was playing with his toys when Safaree opened the door. He put the keys down on the table and sat on the floor with all of us. "Mommy look airplane!" Alex yelled, smiling, as he swung his toy airplane over Safaree's head.

"You like airplanes?" I ask. "Mhhm." He answered. He got up and jumped in my lap. I kissed his cheek and stood up with him still in my arms. Avery pushed herself up and tried to crawl. She failed. Safaree picked both of them up and we went upstairs.

As mad at we are at each other, I can't help but talk to him. "Can I talk to you? I ask. We put the twins in their little bassinet thing that rocks back in forth and let Alex play in his room. "About what?" Safaree asks, closing our bedroom door.

"Us."

(10 MINUTES LATER, ARIANNA'S POV)

So I'm heading over to Nic and Faree's house to visit. I know Nicki's mad at Safaree, so I wanna try to help and clear the air. When I got there, I unlocked the door. I heard yelling coming from upstairs. At least they're talking...

I peeked through their cracked bedroom door. "Okay Safaree! I'm not fucking perfect!" Nicki screams, yanking herself from his grasp. "Auntie Ari!" Alex yells, running to me. "Shh." I put my finger to my lips.

"A-Ariana?" Nicki cries, walking out into the hallway by me. "Hey...You okay? I ask. She shook her head and started crying again. I hugged her tight. She picked up Alex and we went downstairs.

"I think I'm just gonna give up. I can't do this anymore." She told me. "No! You can't give up. You two love each other. Every relationship has it's up and downs."

"Well we've had more downs than ups."

"Not true. You're engaged, have 4 kids and you guys have so much fun together! Please Nika. You never give up, and I'm not letting you give up now. You're perfect for each other."

"Nothing is perfect."

She looked down at Alex, who was on her lap. "Well, whatever you want to do, tell me first. Just think about what I said." I say, getting up. "Okay, and Ari?"

"Yea Nika?"

"You're the bestest friend anyone can have. I love you."

"I love you too. Stay strong. I'll talk to you later."

"Alright. Bye."

"Bye."

I walked out the front door and went home.

(SAFAREE'S POV, 2 PM)

I'm scared for our relationship. I love her with all my heart, and I never wanna let her go. But I don't know how she feels. "Be right back!" I yell and walk out of the front door. I drove to Makalah's school. "Daddy Daddy look!" Makalah yells as she jumps in the backseat of the car. "What?"

She pulled out a paper out of her backpack and handed it to me.

It read "SPELLING TEST" On the top. It was numbered 1 to 10, with neat, handwritten words by them. Then "100% A+" was written and circled in red pen. "Good job Kalah!" I smile.

When we got home, I unlocked the door and she ran inside. I pinned her spelling test on the refrigerator with a magnet.

Nicki came downstairs with both twins in her arms. "Hey Makalah. Did you have a good day at school?" She asks. "Yea and look!" She pointed to her test. "Wow! Good job baby!"

Makalah ran upstairs and Nicki turned to me. "You look beautiful today." I smiled. "Tuh...nice try though."
