Symone's POV
2 months has passed since Drew took Carter from me. I have been trying to contact him and to no avail he is avoiding me. I miss my son and I honestly wish Drew and I can sit and talk like adults. I sent Drew a text even though he never responds.
Symone: Drew, hey I hope Carter is well. Kiss him for me. Please if you're ever in the neighborhood I would love to see our son.
I sat the phone down and was about to shower when my phone buzzed. To my surprise Drew text me back.
Drew: I'll be by in 30mins. Did you cook anything? We haven't stopped to eat yet.
Symone: I can make something real quick. Is burgers and fries okay?
Drew: That's fine. See you in a lil.
Excitement just filled my body. I missed my son so much and this is the perfect time for Drew and I to have this coparent discussion. I don't want sex from him and I don't even want him anymore. I want us to coexist together for our children's sake.
8:15p.m.
Drew pulled up to my door and before he could knock I swung the door open and Carter screamed "Mama". I grabbed him and just hugged him. I sat him in his high chair and Drew could not stop staring at how big my belly is.
"Drew, she is getting bigger which means I'm getting bigger" I laughed
"You're huge" he responded.
"Duh, want to touch her" I asked.
"Naw, I'm pretty hungry" he said.
I fixed his plate and Carter's plate and sat it in front of them. I sat next to Carter to feed him. I watched Drew eat like he hasn't eaten in days. Carter kept smiling at me and I felt this was the perfect time to initiate that talk with Drew.
"So are you leaving Carter?" I asked.
"Why, so you can bring another nigga in here" he angrily spoke.
"Drew, you're married. I do apologize for what I did knowing I'm carrying your child." I pleaded
"Not for long, anywho I'll leave him. Just don't fuck up or I'm taking Carter and when Zoe is born I'm taking her too" he yelled.
"Zoe? So is that what we're naming her" I smiled at Drew.
"Is that all you heard Symone" he said smiling and shaking his head.
"No but I hear you and I love the name Zoe" I smiled and nudged him. As I was getting up Drew grabbed my hand and sat me back down and before I could say anything he kissed me. As I was pulling away he went to put his hands up my dress.
"Drew!! We can't do this anymore. I want to just coparent" I pulled away.
"Symone, I am lonely. Imani left me and I just want you." He said and I almost believed him.
"Drew, Imani loves you. I'm not being your side piece anymore." I shook my head.
"She left for good. I got her sister pregnant." He blurted out and my heart sunk.
"What?? Drew why, how" I was confused. I thought it was just Imani and I.
"Look, I know I fucked up. I have a problem with sex and gorgeous women." He said and winked his eye at me. That man has a way with the women and he is definitely making me wet.
"Drew, it's getting late and I have to get up early. " I told him because I didn't want to hear anymore about his hoeish ways because ironically it's making me horny.
"Can I stay the night" he asked.
I am a sucker for Drew so I said yes but subjected him to the couch. I went in my room and closed the door.
5:20 a.m.
I woke up to Drew yelling and cursing on the phone. I didn't know who he was talking to but he was pretty mad. It scared me to be around him like this. In the past I was the closest thing to him to let his frustrations out on. I grabbed Carter from his bed and went back to my room and closed the door and locked it.
Drew came banging on my door
"Symone, we need to talk" he said sternly.
"Drew, what's wrong?" I said terrified
"Symone, open the door". He started crying.
I got up to open the door and as soon as I unlocked it he swung the door open and was angry. I was scared because I saw that look in his eyes before.
"She really filed for divorce. Imani filed for fucking divorce again" he yelled.
I felt bad for him. I knew he loved her, he just didn't love her enough to act right.
"Drew, I'm sorry. Is there anything I can do " I asked.
He started crying and for once I saw Drew humble. My granny always told me "the same boiling water the hardens the egg also softens the potato"
Drew is broken but that's Karma. What did he expect? The same woman he use to beat the fuck out of, here I am consoling him. As he was laying against me crying Zoe kicked and he jumped. Drew looked up at me and let a smile creep out.
" That's Zoe assuring you that everything will be okay". I told him. He just sat there head on my belly until he fell asleep and I eased myself from under him and went to bed. For the first time ever Drew and I were able to coexist without sex or fighting. This may actually work. I pray.
