Make Up My Mind

Part 38

We all stand there in awkwardness. I didn't know what to do because Isabella was there with a girl that ruined me and accused me of things I didn't even do.

Corbyn: It's cool guys, I invited them.

Daniel: You did what?! Why would you do that?

Mia: Daniel...

Corbyn: All of you are acting like you guys never knew Isabella existed. Like she was never in our lives.

Daniel: Dude, she's the one who kept leaving. She constantly keeps hurting Mia and Noel. Of course I'm going to treat her like that.

Kaiya: You act like they're yours.

Mia: You need to stay out of this.

?: Hey, leave her alone.

?: Yeah you guys, it's a party. Ooh cake.

Daniel: Who even are you guys anyway?

Kaiya: That's Jay and this is Wyatt. They are my brothers.

Everyone: Brothers?!

How did I not know that Kaiya had 2 other brothers besides Connor. I was so confused.

Jacque: Ok this is too much.

Daniel: And they are mine. I've been taking care of them and keeping them safe.

Isabella: You are not Noel's father so stop acting like you are! You've been taking care of her for a couple of week! I've been taking care of her since she was born. Not even Austin wanted to step up to the plate and help me take care of her! I've worked since I was 12, trying to keep a roof over her head and kept food in her stomach! I've been trying to make sure that she wouldn't witness the death of our brother because she was too young and innocent to understand. I've been buying her things to keep her happy after Austin died because god knows where our parents were! It's been me who's been taking care and you are just babysitting. So don't go around all high and mighty thinking you're her father because you're not! I've been both her mother and father for as long as I've lived. Worry about your own damn kid and don't try to lead mine on. Because once that baby comes, we all know that you are going to forget about Noel.

After that, Isabella stormed off and took down the street. Corbyn started to go after her.

Noel: Corbyn..don't.

Corbyn: Why not?

Noel: She obviously care about us anymore.

Corbyn: Don't say that.

Noel: It's true! She's been taking care of me her whole life and giving me everything I wanted. Even the chance to meet the boys. She did everything and she does this and leaves on and off. She can't make up her mind and honestly...hope she never comes back.

Noel storms upstairs and slams the guest room door.

Kaiya: I think we should go.

Kaiya and her brothers start to head out the door when she grabs me by the arm.

Kaiya: You know you're not supposed to be here.

Mia: Does it look like I care?

Kaiya and her brothers leave and now everyone is dead silent.

Daniel: Anyway Mia..what were you saying?

Mia: Oh right. The gender of the baby is...

Anna: Please let it be a girl!!

Sydnie: Girl! Girl! Girl!

Ava: Pleaseee.

Jacque: Just say it already!

Mia: It's a girl!!!

Anna: Yay!!!!!!!

Daniel starts to cry as he falls to the floor. I rush over to him and hold him.

Mia: You okay?

Daniel: We're having a girl?

Mia: Yeah.. a little princess.

Daniel: Mia..I would like to ask you something...will you go on the whole tour with me?

Mia: Yes..a thousand times yes.

Jonah gets up and stands on the table.

Jonah: Attention!!! I have a question for someone in this room. Jacque....

Jacque: Umm yeah...

Jonah: Will you be my girlfriend?

There was a tension for a good minute, everyone wondering what she was gonna say.

Jacque: I would love too.

Jonah rushes off the table and hugs Jacque.

Mia: I'll be right back. Imma check on Noel.

Daniel: Be back soon.

I go upstairs and knock on the door. No answer. I knock again. No answer. I finally open the door and there is no Noel in sight. Noel was gone.
