C18: Change of Heart

DEV POV
I'm up putting my suitcase out in the living room area when I hear a knock at the door, the door opens and see it's Momma J.

"Good morning Momma, you're a lil early.." I say as I give her a hug

"I know, I just wanted to get here and talk to you before Chris gets here." She replies, before sitting down on the couch. I sit next to her and face her. She smiles at me, but I can tell she's worried about something, it's all in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" I ask

"I just... Please don't get upset with me honey, it's just I want to know what it is you have with my son. Is this a serious relationship for you? Or is this just something you're trying out to get known? I know this sounds a bit rude, but I just have to know. I don't want my angel getting hurt again...." She says

At this point I'm scared to answer. What I really want to tell her is something I don't want even Chris to know as of right now. Cause I don't know how he'd even react. I grab Momma J's hand and look at her.

"This is the most serious relationship I've been in. My past... I've been hurt plenty of times. I know the feeling, and with Chris I don't feel like that's going to happen. I really care about him, and what him to be the great person I know he is. I have my reservations, but I'm not gonna just leave him cause I'm scared at times... I want to be with him, I'm happy when I'm with him and feel that he's happy with me. He could lose everything right now and I'd still be with him. I mean, I've been working here on my grind for 3 years. I don't need the fame. Just him." On my last word she instantly hugs me and I can hear her sniffling.

"Aw Ma, I didn't want to make you cry." I say

"It's fine honey, that's just what I wanted to hear." She tells me

"It's the truth, but the things is... Chris doesn't exactly know how I feel. And at the moment I think it's best if it's just me and you that know. I don't want him to feel obligated to feel the same way. He'll let me know when he's ready." I say

"Don't worry, I wasn't planning on saying anything unless you said something I didn't like." She says with a chuckle

There's another knock on the door and it opens. It's Chris, and he looks upset when he sees Momma J wiping her tears.

"Don't even worry boy, these are happy tears." She says before she stands up and hugs him.

He hugs her back but looks at me raising his eyebrows.

"Don't worry about it." I mouth to him

"I want to know." He mouths back

I shrug, and put my sweater on.

"Why you cryin happy tears Ma?" He asks

"That's not anything you need to worry about right now. Aren't you gonna say hi to Isabelle?" She replies

He walks over to me and wraps his long arms around me.

"Good morning beautiful." He says

I sigh, and squeeze him back.

"Good morning."

"Good, now that you've done that... Are we ready to go?" Momma J says

"Yeah, Aunt Christine said you and her we're gonna take a separate car?" Chris asks

"Yeah, we didn't want to intrude on you and Isabelle." She says as she looks at her phone

"She's downstairs in the car, let's go my babies." She says going walking out the door.
