My Boyfriends Brother.

Chapter 24

"Terrence POV"

That same night...

22:17pm

Driving down the street almost halfway home to my penthouse I realised something that I should've done the moment my mother started disrespecting the mother of my child.

I should've defended her.

I should've said something to make my mother listen to the full explanation before jumping to conclusions.

Deciding that I shouldn't be running away from my problems I pulled over to the side of the road and sighed.

I did a quick u turn and headed back to my parents house in order to set things straight.

Upon my arrival my sister Yara was outside sitting on the porch drinking coffee.

I got out of my car and headed to the front door.

"Why are you sitting outside?"

"Mom is being an asshole. She and dad is arguing and I'm not in the mood for it." She rolled her eyes as she sipped from her coffee mug

"Come on inside there's something you gotta hear too." I helped her up from the steps and opened the door for her as she walked in front of me

"Are you really going to stick up for that women after she cheated on our son with Terrence!!" We heard come from the living room

We walked in and there sat our father on the couch nonchalantly listening to our mother as she stood in front of him.

A scene I had grown accustomed to over the course of my marriage to Kelly since she loved arguing so much.

"Mom, dad there's something I have to tell you. Since you didn't give Taraji the chance to explain I've decided to." I said and my mother shot daggers towards me

"I can't believe you did that to your brother Terrence. How could you?" She looked hurt and disappointed in me

"Mama can you please just sit down and listen to me for a second." I stated but she refused as she shook her head

"Terrence your brother doesn't deserve this. Does he even know?" She asked completely ignoring the fact that I wanted to tell her everything that's been going on behind their backs the last few couple of months

"Mama please! Just sit down and I'll tell you everything." I exclaimed and she finally took a seat next to my father

Yara sat as well giving me her undivided attention.

"Taraji and I met in Nevada about a month before she met Travis. I left and didn't tell Kelly where I was going. I needed a break so I went to Vegas. We met on an elevator that had some technical difficulties and she helped me with my phobia and as a thank you I took her to dinner. I swear I fell in love with her the moment I saw her. She wasn't paying me any attention before the elevator stopped but what caught her attention was that I was breathing kinda hard and sweating since I can't be in confined spaces for too long." I said and then continued "that night I took her to dinner, it was a Friday night. We enjoyed our food and I took her for a drive around the city. We ended up in my hotel room and that's where we spent the weekend. After that we never saw each other again. Till dinner of course when you guys met her for the first time." I said to them and my mother was even more shocked

"There's more though." I grasped their attention

"The day after dinner I showed up at her restaurant and our affair started from there." I said to them

Yara wasn't even bothered and neither was my dad. My mother though.

She was livid.

"So seeing that you met her first, you thought it was okay to go and cheat on your wife, with your brothers girlfriend might I add and get her pregnant while doing so." She smartly stated

"Yeah just like your son cheated on his girlfriend with his ex fiancée and got her pregnant." I said before I took a seat on the couch and all eyes were on me

"What??" All of them yelled in shock

"Yeah I thought so. Aaliyah is alive. My friend Shawn got some info on him for me and he found out that Aaliyahs family wanted to kill her so she faked her death. And your beloved son knew about it. Apparently she stole 10 million dollars from her parents and stashed it in LA. Where your son has been living with her which is why he moved to LA. It had nothing to do with his spot on the Lakers team. So I'd watch I'd say when speaking without facts." I said as I took a seat on the couch

"Aaliyah is alive? What is going on around here?" Yara said as she got up

"Yip, lots of secrets indeed. Yet you pushed Taraji away with your words without even knowing the whole story." I grumbled as I got up

"I swear to god if she takes my child away from me you'll never see me again." I said as I looked my mother straight in the eyes and walked out of their home

I got into my car and pulled out my phone. Number 1 on speed dial was her number and it didn't even ring.

I threw my phone in the glove compartment and drove to her house.

I got there in less than 20 minutes because of the speed I was driving and it was completely dark.

Not even her bathroom light upstairs was on that she left on throughout the night.

I got out and took my chances of ringing the doorbell anyway.

I kept rang it about 5 times till her neighbour came out.

"She left here about an hour ago son. Asked me to watch her house for a couple of days." She said

"Did she say where she was going?" I asked her

"I think she said Miami." She said after giving it a thought

"Thank you so much ma'am." I said then jetted off towards my car

I got in and quickly drove off to my penthouse.

I gotta get my girl back ASAP...
