CHANEL

Asha was finally taking me home after our 'girls day' and I couldn't lie, being pampered definitely calmed my down a bit and slowed my mind down from racing about everything else. I really just wanted to know what Troy was plotting on since he basically kicked me out the house for his 'maintanence'. All I knew was it better not have been over some random girl but then again I don't think he'd be crazy enough to do something like that knowing a possible consequence.

We pulled up to the house to see the door standing wide open. I could hear some trap music blasting throughout the house but it definitely didn't look like there was any work being done.

"C'mon let me walk you in I wanna make sure its safe" Asha said grabbing her keys and looking at her phone. I got out following her up to the doorway letting her go first. As fucked up as it may sound I'd rather she go in so I didn't have to risk hurting myself or the baby.

"C'mon what you acting shy for" She said smiling and stepping in. I followed after her looking around at the now decorated house.

There was rose petals on the from the door all the way up until the stairs scattered across the floor. The living room was empty besides a table set up with candles and some red wine but no one else was in sight.

"Aww Troy finally asking you on that date I see" I said going over to the table and looking at what kind of wine he'd bought. I had to admit this was worth getting out the house for, Asha deserved it.

"Girl-" she said before getting quiet.

I turned to look at her but was only met by none other than Cairo standing there, I hadn't even noticed the music was gone while he stood there smirking. Even with just a tank top and some sweats on he managed to just stick out from the rest of his surroundings.

"Damn can a nigga get a hug at least you don't look too happy to see me" he said still smiling, this time opening up his arms.

I walked over without saying anything giving him a quick hug before letting go. I wasn't sure what emotion to feel but I knew I didn't wanna cry despite all signals telling me to. I couldn't look at him though, I didn't even know if I had the right to be disappointed at him for making me wait my whole pregnancy to be without him. Or maybe for not speaking to me this whole time, shit I didn't know what to feel. I was happy he came back but at the same time I was just confused.

"What you don't like the set up or som' or you mad at me? I'm happy to see you at least..and my baby" he said touching my stomach. This man ain't even know the gender of our child, it was so much shit I felt I should've been mad about but it came in the form of tears. He pulled me in for another hug, but this time he held me close as I cried into his chest.

Honestly I was just happy he was okay.

CAIRO

I had no idea what was up with Chanel, she ain't seem happy to see me at all. Shit she ain't even seem happy the whole place was set up for her, it'd really be our last time in this house so I wanted to make it nice so she'd at least enjoy her last few moments in LA. That shit failed obviously and now her ass wasn't even talking.

She pulled away wiping her eyes looking at me, "I'm sorry I just wasn't expecting to see you so soon and I- it's been rough without you and now the baby just everything" she managed to get out before crying again. I ain't know what to do at this point, I never been good with feelings or none of that shit and here she was having a whole episode and I still ain't know why.

"Listen I'm sorry it took so long I had some shit to get together before I could just come out. We gotta move and everything I really ain't wanna stress you out" Good thing I smoked some weed early cause this whole situation would've turned out different and I ain't wanna argue with her on our first day back together.

"I understand it's just hormones and shit I think I'm good" she said fanning her eyes. We just stood there staring at each other, if I could hit it right now I would but I definitely wasn't bout to risk it as big as she was.

"You wanna sit down or wha-"

"Aye I know y'all having a moment and shit but I think I done burnt the steak..." Troy said coming out the kitchen high as hell.

"Bruh what the fuck"

First chanel and her crying and shit now this nigga burning everything. I knew I shouldn't have let him of all people smoke while he was supposedly 'cooking'. If it was up to me we could've just had pizza and called it a night, anything sound good when you been eating noodles in 15 different variations.

"Lets just get take out" Chanel said going to grab her phone. She probably the only one with sense in this house right now.
