|Isaiah Love|

Everyday that I wake up, I thank God for the person that I have become and for everything that he put me through. The good and the bad has made me into this self-loving, confident, independent person that I am today. Despite everything that I have went through with my sperm donor and after countless prayers to God to guide me in the right direction, he put it in my heart to have a sit down conversation with him and let him know how much I've grown without him.

"Bae, you sure you don't want me to come. Take a little stress off of you?"

"As much as I appreciate it, I'm going to go by myself. I've been working on being patient and not letting things that I can't control get me worked up."

"Are you going to tell him about baby Omega?"

"Shut up, you play too much. Hell no."

"That's our baby though, you have to tell him about the baby." Foreign walks up behind me and wraps his arms around me placing his hands on my stomach. "You got some baby weight poking through mama."

"Quit playing with me." I laugh leaning my head back into his chest. "What do you think I should wear?"

"Do the pink floral pantsuit so he knows what's good."

"Curls or straight?"

"Straight is more serious."

"Get me all the way together my love. You're a real one." I turn around and hug him to show my appreciation. He smacks my ass then proceeds to grab two handfuls of it. Foreign is not going to let me leave so easily I can already tell.

"Stay in with me and the baby."

"I wish I could but you know I can't have any distractions. He has to stay here and you have to watch him."

"Look at his face though, he's going to miss his mommy." I playfully roll my eyes and look to our new puppy 6ix. We went half on a dog since we're not ready for a baby yet. Neither of us grew up with a pet but this doggie parent shit is easy. This also gave us a loophole to naming our first child after Omega. Of course he was pissed, but he never said the baby had to be human.

"Mommy's going to miss you too but you get to spend time with DaDa."

"Say it'll be more fun with you there too."

"I'm sorry but I'll make it up to both of you if you're good boys." I wink at Foreign before grabbing the outfit and going into the bathroom to do my makeup and hair. My go to look lately has been a light beat so that's what I stick with. I'm not trying to impress my speed donor but I am not trying to get caught slipping.

When I'm finished, I put on the outfit and spray perfume all over. I go to my full body mirror to look myself over pleased with how it all flowed. I'm definitely that bitch, period.

"Put the ring on your other finger." I laugh moving the ring from my middle finger to my ring finger.

"You're petty and I love it. Bye pook, love you you. Bye 6ix see you later."

"Bye sunflower, text me when you get there."

"Gotchu boo." With a hug and a kiss, I leave out ready to come face to face with my past problems. I say a prayer the whole way there for God to help me keep my composure and  try to not be spiteful. In order for me to show my growth, I have to show just how mature I can be.

By the time I pull up, it's going on 12: 25 which means I'm right on time. I park and go inside hoping he's there waiting.   I text Foreign letting him know I made it before I lift my head and look through the sea of faces finding his familiar one. He raises his hand and waves me over.
