Dave's Angel

Dieciséis

Dave in media

"You may have had his first child, but I'll be his first and only wife."

Dave
"Say hello to your beautiful baby boy." I couldn't help the little tears that fell out of my eyes.

I never cried. I never could. I had to be the rock for everybody. And I could never show emotion. But watching my son take his first breath into the world, triggered emotions a nigga forgot he had.

I watched as Kianna cheesed from ear to ear as she held him in her arms. I stood over her just staring at him.

I did this. This is my seed. I'm gonna be everything my father wasn't to me. Present. Birthdays, games, school events, first day of kindergarten, prom, graduation. I'm gonna be there through it all.

I loved him before I even met him.

"What's the cutie's name?" The nurse inquired.

"Kayden DeMarcus East." I said naming him after his uncle DMac.

He would be going crazy in this hospital right now. Even though he was a street nigga, he loved kids. Always wanted a son. Him and Chauntae was supposed to live the life with the dog, white picket fence in the suburbs. But God had a different plan.

Now she has two kids with some nigga in Cali.

"Wanna hold him?" I was brought out of my thoughts by Kianna handing me my son.

Once he was in my arms, for the first time I felt love at first sight. I can't believe I'm holding my son right now. He squirmed for a little bit then eventually relaxed. I think he even smile at his pops.

I stared into his big brown eyes. He was so little and had so much hair. I just knew he was gonna look just like his daddy.

His little finger wrapped around my index finger.

The nurses cooed at us.

Aria
I rolled my eyes throwing my phone on the opposite couch. I tried calling Dave to congratulate him and see the baby, but he wasn't answering. Phone was probably dead, per usual. But that didn't take away from the feeling of jealousy I had.

I was woman enough to admit I was jealous.

Makiya had just sent me a post off of Kianna's page. She posted Dave holding the baby and captioned it "Now we are one big happy family. They are my 🌎"

As mad as I wanted to be, it was true. They were a family. They are now Dave's number one priority. I don't know how I'm gonna take coming second.

For their kid, I understand. But now, Kianna is gonna come around a lot more. Knowing her old petty ass, she's gonna try to make my life hell.

I just don't know anymore.

The door opened. "Hello Ms. Aria." She cheesed.

"Hello Ms. Santiago." I replied with a smile. She was Dave's maid that came every other day just to clean up around the house.

I couldn't believe this nigga really had a maid.

"I hear I am going to have a lot more to clean." Her spanish accent tearing through. I chuckled.

"Yes, he was born 20 minutes ago."

"Why aren't you at hospital?" I paused. Why wasn't I? Dave didn't really invite me. He just got up and rushed out. Should I have followed? Is it even my place? I mean I plan to be around.

"I-I don't know." I fiddled with my fingers.

"Oh.. ok." She hurried into the next room.

That was awkward. My phone rang. I rushed to get it, disappointed to see
