"I ask you each now, to repeat the marriage vows." Me and Damien looking into each other's eyes of course I was crying so he was wiping my tears. This was definitely one of the happiest days of my life I finally getting married properly to the man I love.
"Damien I promise to love you without condition to honor you each and everyday, to laugh with you when your happy to support you when your sad, to guide you when you ask for direction, to challenge you to be a better person and allow you to do the same for me to be your biggest fan and you ever present listening audience." The tears were just streaming down my face.
"Alexis I promise to give you the best of myself, I promise to trust and respect you as your own person and realize that your interests, desire and needs are no less important than my own, I promise to share with you my time and attention and to bring joy, strength and imagination to our relationship." We exchanged rings.
"You May now kiss your bride." Me and Damien shared a good long passionate kiss. Everyone was clapping for us and cheering. That was three years ago I was so happy we was so happy but not everything good lasts.
I was looking at my wedding dress photos my phone ringing brought me out my thoughts. I rolled my eyes seeing it was Damien calling me for the seventh time. Me and Damien are still together and yes these last couple of years have been great but this last year has been trying for us. A hoe from one of his trap house claim she been sleeping with him and to be honest I don't even care anymore. I'm not about to keep going back and forth with the hoe Damien swear he didn't sleep with her so for now I believe him. The reason it's so trying for us is because he never home so I can only think someone else has his attention.
But he swears he just working and handling business I hate it though. He becoming my father and I don't want my kids to go through what I went through. He already been gone for six months he was suppose to only be out there for a month and send Dre and Mason out there but it never happened. He forgot my birthday he forgot our wedding anniversary he didn't call until a week later. So that's why I'm annoyed with him right now. He is really testing our relationship right now.
I've been ignoring his calls because I'm in my feelings how the hell you forget your wife birthday we been together for almost 10 years. And then on top of that he forgot our wedding anniversary I don't give a hell what he was doing he could of called but no he didn't. I waited all day that day thinking he was just busy but nope. He eventually called a week later like nothing even happened I had to remind him ever since then he been apologizing. I'm so over him apologizing the only thing he can do to make me feel better is come home.
Then the kids really miss there dad I miss him he making me sad I just don't know what to do. The kids asks me for him everyday they FaceTime him all the time he answers when he can. But we want him home and I don't know how much longer I am going to be able to take this. The boys come around to get the kids still twice a week and my dad and mom helps but I just want Damien here. He knows I'm mad at him because he keeps calling me and I don't even want to speak to him I just want him to come home.
"What Damien?" I rolled my eyes he FaceTime.
"Why you not answering my calls?" Like he don't know the reason I'm mad.
"Because I don't want to talk to you right now."
"Come on Alexis how many times do I have to say I'm sorry. I really am it was a mistake I forgot it won't happen again." I laughed but it wasn't funny I was getting angry.
"Damien I don't want you to say sorry actually I don't care if your sorry. What I want you to do is come home nothing is going to fix this if you don't come. No flowers no amount of money no purse no clothes no car nothing so stop sending me gift because I don't want them."
"Alexis come on you know I want to be home with you and my kids but I'm busy baby. Please just hold on a little longer." I hate that he has to go over seas he been in Cuba this whole time.
"Can this be the last time you leave us. You have a family we have kids that want to see you everyday they miss their father. You have a wife that needs you by her side and she misses you. This can't keep happening unless your family won't be here when you get back. I don't want to make you choose but I don't have a choice you need to come home." He ran his hands down his face he looked so stressed. I hate to give him an ultimatum but I had to he can't be away this long.
"Alexis I miss you guys so much you know y'all mean the world to me. But I can't leave right now I have to make sure shit is good over here before I leave. I will come home soon though I promise just not today. Can you stop being mad at me it doesn't make this any easier. If I get this shit here settled I promise I'll be home just bare with me. I love you." No matter how mad at him I am when he tells me he loves me it still gives me butterflies.
"I love you too. You need to hurry because the twins are acting up in daycare and they are not listening to me." The boys give me hell sometimes I can't take it and with Damien not being here they run all over me.
"Let me speak to the kids. I'm whooping they ass as soon as I get back, What they doing?"
"They beat some kid up Damien the damn school kick them out I had to go up there and get them I brought my dad with me to whoop them." I walked out my room into the hall the kids were downstairs in the play room. We moved into a bigger house 10 bedroom and 12 bathrooms. We had to we have 5 kids so we needed the space.
"Damn my little niggas bad this is they third school they got kick out of."
"I know babe I don't know what to do with them they are just to bad. Kannon also hit a girl in daycare Damien." I don't want my boys thinking it's okay to hit females.
"He only 4 Alexis it was probably by accident." I rolled my eyes at him.
"Damien I don't want them thinking it's okay to hit a girl. That's not his first time hitting her Damien you need to talk to them and discipline them."
"Alright Alexis. How is the girls?" He makes sure he asks about his two favorite kids.
"They are good as usual just asking about you Kaylani cried last night because she missed you and I think Kalina mad at you because you didn't answer her call last night. Oh and you know Kaylani birthday coming up."
"I know I went to bed I was up early but damn why you ain't call me so she can stop crying."
"I just told her I'll get her ice cream she stopped crying. But please don't miss her birthday Damien."
"I'm not babygirl." I walked into the kids play room they were messing stuff up as usual and the boys were all fighting as usual.
"Hey stop it." Kannon and Kaden was wrestling. "You father on the phone."
"Daddy" they all screamed while running to me to get my phone.
