All of my dreams were coming true. I have my family, a husband, a daughter & a career I couldn't ask for more.
I'm still off work on maternity leave so I've been bonding with Iyana. I have taken a hundred photos of her already, I also paint & sew. I've made cute pillows for her & her father. I made blankets for my nephew & sent them to my parents in Virginia. I prepare our dinner before Carl gets off work. Tonight we're having T-bone steak, baked potato, & salad. When he gets home I give him a huge kiss & a back massage. Anthonys birthday is tomorrow I want it to be special. This year we are having a surprise party. Last year we went on vacation to Atlanta together. I held him all night. The next morning he is off to work & I started making calls to make sure everything is in place. Iyana & I have ordered his birthday cake, 4 outfits, 2 pairs of shoes, & a gold chain. I bought the chain last year, this would be the perfect time to give it to him. I invited all our friends & family to this surprise party. Ashley & Lamont are helping me with the setup. Thank goodness because my hands are tied between Iyana & this house. Everything is ready about an hour before he gets home from work. Some of our friends & family are here. Antony's mother came to pick up Iyana around 5. I have been texting Tone smiley & kissy faces all day. He pulls up around 6 with his cousin Q. We all yelled surprise as he opens the door. He looks as if he saw a ghost. There are name brand bottles all through the house my friends are engaging with his cousins & friends. We are defiantly lit. We had cake, a cheeseball with crackers, fruit, vegetables, & wings. Ashley & I are in the kitchen.
So how are things with you & Lamonte?
We are good we went bowling last weekend.
So are you guys staying together?
We talked about it, I mean he is always at my apt anyways I don't see why not.
That's a big step towards a commitment Ashley.
Yes, she says & rolls her eyes.
No word from Justin?
He keeps texting me, so I blocked his number too much drama.
I didn't invite him to the party.
Good, so how is Iyana?
The girl is getting so big I'm trying to keep her on schedule, all she wants to do is sleep. I have to keep checking on her & waking her up.
The music is so loud we go back to the basement where everyone else is partying. All the guys are talking, In walks Justin. I don't know how he got in but he is here so lets just all be cool. Ashley goes over & sits on Lamonts' lap. I'm standing next to Anthony, Q, Leslie & Justin. Everyone is having a great time. At the end of the night, Justin is seen with one of our friend's named Miracle. The party is over, Miracle & Justin start walking to his car nobody says anything. He forgot his bottle so he runs back into the house. On his way back to the car he starts yelling at Lamont & Ashley. Ashley pretends she didn't hear him. Justin was calling her out about messing with him & Lamont. As if he had the right too. Lamont told him he should grow up & go home to his wife. Justin ran straight for Lamont & hits him in the face they started fighting in the driveway. Justin swings the first time & he missed the second time he hit Lamont in his face. They stumble to the ground wrestling. I don't understand why Justin is so angry this is why he wasn't invited. Anthony helps break the fight up, poor Justin is drunk & salty. He tried shoving on Tone but Q wasn't going for it. Now that the house is clear I started to clean up. Anthony grabbed me by the hand & lead me back to the bedroom.
