One Day At A Time

|Chapter 28|

Hazel

"Hazel?!" August's voice booms as he walks through the door.

"Yeah?"

"C'mere!"

"I'm doin my hair you come here!"

I section the next piece of my hair and put the rest in a bun at the top of my head. Just as I grab the flatiron, August comes into the bathroom.

"Hey baby." I turn to him puckering my lips, waiting for a kiss.

Seeing he wasn't moving to give me a kiss, I frown and put the flatiron down, going over to him. I stand on my tip toes and try to give him a kiss first, only for him to turn away and back up as if he didn't want me to touch him at all.

I thought it was some sick game of his until he holds his arm out to stop me. What the fuck.

"What's wrong with you?" I ask frowning.

Of all the years August and I have ever been together, he'd never dodged one of my kisses or made me feel like he didn't want to be touched by me. Even when he was mad he'd still give me a kiss and go on about his day without talking to me.

"You cheating on me?"

"Come on, August really?" I chuckle, making him raise an eyebrow. "No I'm not cheating on you."

I don't understand why he'd think I'm cheating on him. I don't really go out that much since I've gotten pregnant, I'm literally with him, Demi, Juan, or at home everyday, and I don't really talk to no one outside of family. Well of course unless it's clients.

"Then what the fuck is you all on the shade room for posted up with another nigga?"

"What?" I say making a face. "What nigga?"

"Ion know this nigga you tell me." He says unlocking his phone.

I go back to flatironing my hair, waiting for him to find whatever it is he was looking for. After finding it, he holds his hand out for me to take the phone. Setting the comb on the counter, I wipe my hands on my shorts and grab his phone. I flip through the pictures and frown seeing the man from the store in every single picture.

Did he make these or what because I know for sure some of these were taken with August.

I shake my head and scroll through the comments, reading some of the things people are saying about me. I can't believe how naive August and these people are being. Like I know you can't tell that these photos are photoshopped, but they should know that I'd never cheat on August. I'm a very faithful woman and these comments are just nasty. Pure hate.
